APPLICATION FOR VARIANCE
Mason County Code Title 15, Section 15.09.057 VARIANCE CRITERIA states that variances from the bulk and
dimension requirements of the Resource Ordinance or the Development Regulations(zoning regulations)may be
allowed if written findings show compliance with the variance criteria. The burden is on the applicant to prove that
each of the criteria is met. A public hearing accompanies Variances and application for a Variance does not
guarantee approval. A variance is an application for a special "exception to the rule".

Application for Variance Questions:
1.Describe the specific modification from the terms of the Chapter required.
Replace the front porch to access the existing front door of the single-family residence within the location
of the previous porch. The previous porch consisted of a set of stairs,paver stone and gravel patio.The
previous porch&patio extended past the property ROW.This replacement porch will be within 1-foot of
the ROW.
2.Describe the reasons for the variance.
The house was raised 7-feet to account for future flooding associated with King Tides. In approximately
December 2022,the property owners experienced flooding in their home due to the King Tides.This
variance is necessary to replace the front porch where it was previously located.A front porch is needed
to provide access to the existing front door and the electrical panel(which is now 7-ft higher than it was
prior to raising the house).The front door is approximately 6.4-feet from the property line,and the septic
tank is 6.3-feet from the�property line.
3.No variance shall be granted unless the County makes findings of fact showing that certain
circumstances exist. Please address each of the following standards and how the proposal pertains
to these circumstances.
a. That the strict application of the bulk,dimensional or performance standards precludes or
significantly interferes with a reasonable use of the property not otherwise prohibited by
County regulations;
The existing single-family residence, septic system, and shed were all previously installed in a
way that does not meet the 10-foot minimum setback from the right of way on the front of the
parcel.The original stairs were over the property line, as they were longer than the proposed
replacement deck which only extends 4-feet from the house.
b. That the hardship which serves as a basis for the granting of the variance is specifically
related to the property of the applicant,and is the result of unique conditions such as irregular
lot shape,size,or natural features and the application of the County regulations,and not,for
example,from deed restrictions or the applicant's own actions;
This is a narrow,small parcel(0.18 acres size),located on the north side of Highway 106 adjacent to the
Hood Canal with slopes greater than 40%from the highway to the property.The existing property line
and right-of-way are less than 10-feet from the existing SFR.
c. That the design of the project will be compatible with other permitted activities in the area
and will not cause adverse effects to adjacent properties or the environment;
The project is currently developed with a single-family residence,driveway,on-site septic
system,and other ancillary features typical of this type of development.Nearby local properties along
Highway 106 have similarly sized parcels which support SFR and a variety of associated developments
that do not meet the set-back requirements such as sheds,septic systems,porches,and houses.This porch
DocuSign Envelope ID:EC9744A3-DBE2-44C2-ABAB-8184B80B4CAF
is necessary to provide access to the existing front door and the electrical panel.
d.That the variance authorized does not constitute a grant of special privilege not enjoyed by the
other properties in the area,and will be the minimum necessary to afford relief;
The replacement porch would be similar to other existing porches on local parcels in the surrounding
area.The front porch was designed as the minimum footprint to provide access to the existing front door
and electrical panel.
e.That the public interest will suffer no substantial detrimental effect;
This is a private,gated property to which the public has no access.If the public were to enter this property
it would be trespassing. There is a privacy fence separating the road from the house,so this porch would
be minimally visible by someone driving by the property.
f.No variance shall be granted unless the owner otherwise lacks a reasonable use of the land.
Such variance shall be consistent with the Mason County Comprehensive Plan,Development
Regulations,Resource Ordinance and other county ordinances,and with the Growth Management
Act.Mere loss in value only shall not justify a variance.
The homeowner cannot get final occupancy for the residence until there is a way to access both
the front door and electrical panel.This precludes use of the property.
