WATERVLIET CHARTER TOWNSHIP ZONING BOARD OF APPEALS NOTICE OF PUBLIC HEARING TO THE RESIDENTS AND PROPERTY OWNERS OF THE CHARTER TOWNSHIP OF WATERVLIET, BERRIEN COUNTY, MICHIGAN AND ALL OTHER INTERESTED PERSONS: BE IT HEREBY NOTICED that the Watervliet Charter Township Zoning Board of Appeals will conduct a public hearing on Wednesday May 2, 2018 at 2:00 p.m. at the Watervliet Charter Township Hall, 4959 M-140 Hwy, Watervliet, Michigan. The hearing is called at the request of Donald & Kathleen Falduto for property they own on Park St. in the Bowe’s Landing Subdivision directly across the street from their home at 5272 Park St. The property number is: 11-21-0970-0066-01-5. The lot is currently undeveloped. The Faldutos would like to build a 26’ X 20’ garage on the lot, however, due to the size of the lot, the intended dimensions of the garage would bring the west side of the structure to within 4’ 10” of the side yard lot line; the east wall of the structure would be 4’ 3” of the east side yard lot line at its closest point. In addition to that, the southeast corner of the structure is planned to be 32 feet from the north right-of-way line of Lakeshore Dr. All side yard setbacks in this district are required to be 10 feet and all road side setbacks are required to be 35 feet. As such, in order for this structure to be built as planned, a west side yard variance of 5’ 2”; an east side yard variance of 5’ 9”; and a road side setback variance from Lakeshore Dr. of 3’ would have to be granted. All interested parties are invited to attend the hearing and be heard. Written correspondence will be accepted either by mailing to the Watervliet Charter Township Hall, 4959 M-140 Hwy., Watervliet, MI. 49098; faxed to (269) 463-4808; e-mailed to watervliettownship@yahoo.com or personally delivered to the attention of the Zoning Administrator.
