Interdepartmental Review Committee (IDRC) Recommendation

IDRC did not recommend conditions, and motioned for this case to move forward to the Planning and Zoning Commission for determination.

Motion Options

Motion Option 1*:

I move to approve Case No. VAR-2023-0000, a request variance from the Development Code, Use Regulations, for a 192 sq.ft. accessory structure to be 50” from the rear property line, and 57” from the side. The property, MIR05021, is addressed as 100 Confianza St., Los Alamos, NM, and is within the White Rock Town Center (WRTC) zone district.

Approval is based on the Findings of Facts established at the hearing and conclusion that the Applicant has met the decision criteria for Variance within Section 16-74(g)(3) of the Los Alamos County Development Code and that the Commission is acting under the authority granted by Section 16-69(b)(2)(j) of the Development Code.

I further move to authorize the Chair to sign a Final Order approving the application and Findings of Fact and Conclusions of Law for this case, based on this decision to be prepared by county staff.

 

*The Commission may recommend conditional approval as determined during the hearing.

The property, MIR05021, is addressed as 100 Confianza St., Los Alamos, NM, and is within the White Rock Town Center (WRTC) zone district.
