Title of Agenda Item:VARIANCE - A RESOLUTION OF THE TOWN OF DAVIE, FLORIDA, TAKING FINAL ACTION ON VARIANCE APPLICATION V26-001 SALBO; PROVIDING FOR SEVERABILITY; PROVIDING FOR CONFLICT; AND PROVIDING FOR AN EFFECTIVE DATE (4115 Southwest 111th Lane, Zoned A-1).
Executive Summary: The proposed variance would allow a new accessory garage building to be constructed at a height of 13'-11" (the existing home has a roof height of 11'-4" and Sec. 12-32(A)(2) of the Town Code states that the height of an accessory structure must not exceed that of the primary structure).
Key Points:
  • The applicant has provided letters of no objection from 3 surrounding property owners(refer to the attachments).
  • The property owner submitted a permit application (#2025-6654) on August 15, 2025, which was rejected by Planning & Zoning for exceeding the height of the principal structure.
  • Note that Sec. 12-32(A) was recently amended by Town Ordinance 2025-027 (see attached). Ord. 2025-027 repealed certain provisions concerning the allowable area of accessory garages, but the changes did not affect the present issue of building heights. Ord. 2025-027 is in effect but is not yet published in Municode.
  • The subject lot is not part of a homeowners association.
  • Staff has not received any correspondence objecting to the proposed variance.
