The necessity of bulk variance relief was discovered when a survey was done for the sale of the property, which is currently owned by Marc Procaccini.

The subject property contains a residential dwelling and related improvements on approximately .459 acres in the R-20 zone. No site improvements are being proposed.
The applicant seeks bulk variance relief from the rear yard setback where 10 ft is required and approximately 1.0 ft for the pool equipment and approximately 2.75 ft for the shed are existing. The applicant further seeks any and all other use, conditional use, and bulk variances, waivers, interpretations, approvals, and/or such other relief as the Zoning Board of Adjustment or the Zoning Board of Adjustment's professionals may deem necessary, appropriate, or desirable while considering this application.
