Permit for RV Barn
Finally found a house but it doesn't have a basement. Simple, just add a workshop onto the to-be-built RV garage.
Except the county doesn't allow accessory structures greater than 50% of the residential structure, so a 2400 sq ft barn-workshop next to a 2500 sq ft house won't cut it.
They don't allow variances on structure size. Only setbacks, height, width, etc. Even with no sides, if it has a roof the sq footage is counted.
Property is 1.5 ac and zoned R1. It's not part of a subdivision and is surrounded by Ag zoning on 3 sides. Across the street is an entrance to a subdivision.
I know this is all vague. Some options are to purchase a portion of the Ag property (if the owner will sell a portion). Maybe subdivide the 1.5 ac into 2 lots and built a 1 BR house with a realy big garage.
Any ideas? We walk or sign Sep 14.
