SUMMARY
The proposed variance would allow for a deviation in the required minimum yard setback along the
south side of the subject property. The side setback requirement for the ESA-2 Zone District is 25 feet.
Lots within the Three Rivers Estates are typically very narrow and cannot accommodate side setbacks
of 25 feet. The existing legal nonconforming single family dwelling is approximately twelve (12) feet
from the south property boundary. On March 20, 2014, a permit was issued by the Columbia County
Building and Zoning Department for a deck. A portion of the permitted deck was allowed to be built
within the 25 foot setback on the south side; however, only up to the existing south side of the existing
single family dwelling. Further, there is existing mechanical equipment (air conditioner) that is located
within the required setback. The applicant is requesting a retroactive variance for the legal
nonconforming single family residence, the deck that was permitted by the Building and Zoning
Department, and the existing mechanical equipment. The variance would allow for a twelve (12) side
setback on the south side of the subject property for all structures and a six (6) foot side setback on the
south side for the existing mechanical equipment. The subject property currently contains one single
family residence.
Map 1. Proposed Official Zoning Atlas with Subject Property
The Environmentally Sensitive Area ("ESA") Zone District is described as follows in Section 4.4.1 of the Land Development Regulations (“LDRs”):
“The "ESA" environmentally sensitive area category includes three zone districts: ESA-1, 2, 3. Lands in
these districts are considered in need of special planning and treatment regarding land development
regulation. These are not preservation districts, but land uses permitted within these districts are to
provide mitigating measures to protect the natural functions of areas which are limited to the planning
and treatment of land development within the 100-year floodplain of the Ichetucknee Springs State Park,
Page 2 of 11
O'Leno State Park, Osceola National Forest, Pinhook Swamp, Suwannee River Corridor, Santa Fe River
Corridor and Ichetucknee Trace, as designated within the Federal Emergency Management [Agency] flood
insurance rate map for the county, as amended. These regulations prohibit intensive residential, intensive
recreational and intensive agricultural uses and prohibit industrial and commercial development within
the 100-year floodplain of the areas designated as environmentally sensitive areas.”

ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS ANALYSIS
Wetlands
According to Illustration A-VI of the Comprehensive Plan, entitled Wetlands Areas, which is based upon
the National Wetlands Inventory, dated 1987, and the National Wetlands Reconnaissance Survey, dated
1981, there are no wetlands located on the subject property.
Evaluation: Even though the National Wetland Inventory does not indicate any wetlands on the subject
property, the subject property is located along the Santa Fe River and could potentially have wetlands
located on the subject property; however, the Land Development Regulations has buffer requirements
from all wetland areas. Give the preceding information, there are no issues related to wetland protection.
Page 5 of 11
Map 4. Wetlands Map
Soil Survey
Each soil type found on the subject property is identified below. The hydrologic soil group is an indicator
of potential soil limitations. The hydrologic soil group, as defined for each specific soil, refers to a group
of soils which have been categorized according to their runoff-producing characteristics. These
hydrologic groups are defined by the Soil Survey of Columbia County, Florida, dated October 1984. The
chief consideration with respect to runoff potential is the capacity of each soil to permit infiltration (the
slope and kind of plant cover are not considered, but are separate factors in predicting runoff). There are
four hydrologic groups: A, B, C, and D. “Group A” soils have a higher infiltration rate when thoroughly wet
and therefore have a lower runoff potential. “Group D” soils have very lower infiltration rates and
therefore a higher runoff potential.
There is one (1) soil type found on the subject property:
1) Chiefland-Pedro Variant Complex, occasionally flooded soils are comprised of nearly level to sloping
soils that are within 3 miles of rivers and creeks interspersed with numerous sinkholes. The
Chiefland-Pedro Variant soil complex is comprised of 41 percent Chiefland soils and 39 percent Pedro
Variant soils. These soils are in areas so small or so intermingled that it was not practical to map
them separately. Chiefland-Pedro Variant complex have severe limitations for building site
development and for septic tank absorption fields.
Page 6 of 11
Evaluation: The soil type on the subject property is Chiefland-Pedro Variant Complex. Chiefland-Pedro
Variant Complex poses severe limitations for septic tank absorption fields and building site development.
Given the site is already developed, there are no issues related to soil suitability.
Map 5. Soils Map
Flood Potential
Panel 0467C of the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) Flood Insurance Rate Map (FIRM)
Series, dated February 4, 2009, indicates that the subject property is in Flood Zone "AE" (areas where a
base flood elevation is determined) and has a Base Flood Elevation of 34 feet.
Evaluation: Even though the subject property is located in Flood Zone "AE", the structure exists and is
elevated; therefore, there is no concern of flood on the subject property.

Map 6. FEMA FIRM Map (Flood Map)
Stream to Sink
According to the Stream to Sink Watersheds, prepared by the Suwannee River Water Management District
and adopted by the Board of County Commissioners, dated June 2, 2001, the subject property is not located
within a stream to sink area.
Evaluation: Given the subject property is not located in a Stream to Sink Watershed, there is no concern
related to Stream to Sink Watersheds.
Minerals
According to Illustration A-VII of the Comprehensive Plan, entitled Minerals, which is based upon Natural
Resources, prepared by the Florida Department of Environmental Protection, 2012, the subject property
is within an area known to contain Clayey Sand.
Evaluation: There are no issues related to minerals.
Historic Resources
According to Illustration A-II of the Comprehensive Plan, entitled Historic Resources, which is based upon
the Florida Division of Historical Resources, Master Site File, dated 2013, there are no known historic
resources located on the subject property.
Page 8 of 11
Evaluation: There are no issues related to historic Resources.
Aquifer Vulnerability
According to the Columbia County Floridan Aquifer System Protection Zone Map, prepared by the Advance
GeoSpacial Inc., dated September 29, 2009, the subject property is located in a more vulnerable area.
Evaluation: While the subject property is located in a more vulnerable area, there is no issue related to
aquifer vulnerability.
Vegetative Communities/Wildlife
According to Illustration V-I of the Data and Analysis Report, entitled Vegetative Communities, the subject
property is located within a non-vegetative community.
Evaluation: There is no known wildlife habitats associated with a non-vegetative community; therefore,
there is no issue related to vegetative communities or wildlife.
COMPLIANCE WITH THE LAND DEVELOPMENT REGULATIONS
Section 12.3.1.2 of the Land Development Regulations (“LDRs”) establishes standards with which all
Variance applications must be found in compliance with. Staff’s evaluation of the application’s compliance
with the applicable standards of Section 12.3.1.2 of the LDRs is provided below.
1) Special conditions and circumstances exist which are peculiar to the land, structure, or
building involved and which are not applicable to other lands, structures, or buildings in the
same zoning district.
Evaluation and Findings: The subject property is located in a platted subdivision which
was approved by the Board of County Commissioner on May 20, 1976 and does not meet the
current density requirements. The subject property is located in an Environmentally
Sensitive Area (“ESA”) Zone District which has 25 foot side setbacks. The subject property is
very narrow as is very common with the lots in Three Rivers Estates. This tends to lead to
structures being well within the require building setbacks. The existing dwelling is located
approximately 12 feet from the side property boundary on the south. A deck was permitted
on March 20, 2014 and constructed in accordance with the approved permit. The deck did
not protrude into the southerly side setback any further than the existing single family
dwelling. Further, there is existing mechanical equipment (air conditioning unit) located in
the southerly side setback. As the property owner, I’m requesting a retroactive variance
from the southerly side setback from 25 feet to 12 feet for the existing single family
residence and the permitted deck addition, and a retroactive variance from the southerly
side setback from 25 feet to 6 feet for the existing mechanical equipment (air conditioner).
Given the structures are existing, permitted structures and equipment, there are special
conditions and circumstances which exist that are peculiar to the land, structure, or building
involved and which are not applicable to other lands, structures, or buildings in the same
zoning district.
Page 9 of 11
2) The special conditions and circumstances do not result from the actions of the applicant.
Evaluation and Findings: There are no special conditions and circumstances that do not
result from the actions of the applicant. The existing deck was permitted through the
Columbia County Building and Zoning Department.
3) Granting the variance requested will not confer on the applicant any special privilege that is
denied by these Land Development Regulations (“LDRs”) to other lands, buildings, or
structures in the same Zoning District.
Evaluation and Findings: The granting of the variance requested will not confer on the
applicant a special privilege that is denied by these LDRs to other lands or structures in the
same Zoning District. Many of the lot within Three Rivers Estates have been granted
variances for the same or similar reason as the variance requested. It is not possible for the
narrow lots within the Three River Estates to meet the setback requirements of the ESA Zone
District.
4) Literal interpretation of the provisions of the LDRs would deprive the applicant of rights
commonly enjoyed by other properties in the same zoning district under the terms of the
LDRs and would work unnecessary and undue hardship on the applicant.
Evaluation and Findings: The literal interpretation of the provisions of the LDRs would
deprive the applicant of rights commonly enjoyed by other properties in the same zoning
district under the terms of the LDRs and would work unnecessary and undue hardship on
the applicant. The subject property would not be able to be built upon if the literal
interpretation of the provisions of the LDRs were applied; therefore, creating an unnecessary
and undue hardship.
5) The variance granted is the minimum variance that will make possible the reasonable use of
the land, building, or structure.
Evaluation and Findings: The proposed variance, if approved, would be the minimum
variance allowed given that the single family residence, deck, and mechanical equipment are
already in existence. The variance requested is to allow the existing structures to be covered
via the variance, not for the purpose of allowing construction closer to the property line.
6) The grant of the variance will be in harmony with the general intent and purpose of the
LDRs, and that such variance will not be injurious to the area involved or otherwise
detrimental to the public welfare.
Evaluation and Findings: As previously mentioned, many of the lots in the Three Rivers
Estates have similar setback variances as the one being requested. These variances have not
been injurious or detrimental to public welfare. Likewise, the granting of the proposed
variance will not be injurious or detrimental to the public welfare. Given the information
above, it is anticipated that the granting of the variance will be in harmony with the general
intent and purpose of the LDRs, and that such variance will not be injurious to the area
involved or otherwise detrimental to the public welfare.

7) Limitations on subsequent written petition for a variance. No written petition by an owner of
real property for a variance for a particular parcel of property, or part thereof, shall be filed
with the Land Development Regulation Administrator until the expiration of 12 calendar
months from the date of denial of a written petition for a variance for such property, or part
thereof, unless the board of adjustment specially waives said waiting period based upon a
consideration of the following factors:
a. The new written petition constituting a proposed variance different from the one
proposed in the denied written petition.
b. Failure to waive said 12-month waiting period constitutes a hardship to the applicant
resulting from mistake, inadvertence, or newly discovered matters of consideration.
Evaluation and Findings: No application for a variance has been made in respect to the
subject property within the past twelve (12) months.
PUBLIC FACILITIES IMPACT
Given the applicant is not proposing any additional Recreational Vehicle sites in association with the
campground; there are no impacts to Public Facilities.

COMPLIANCE WITH THE LAND DEVELOPMENT REGULATIONS
Section 12.3.1.2 of the Land Development Regulations (“LDRs”) establishes standards with which
all Variance applications must be found in compliance with. Staff’s evaluation of the application’s
compliance with the applicable standards of Section 12.3.1.2 of the LDRs is provided below.
1) Special conditions and circumstances exist which are peculiar to the land, structure, or
building involved and which are not applicable to other lands, structures, or buildings in
the same zoning district.
Evaluation and Findings: The subject property is located in a platted subdivision which
was approved by the Board of County Commissioner on May 20, 1976 and does not meet
the current density requirements. The subject property is located in an Environmentally
Sensitive Area (“ESA”) Zone District which has 25 foot side setbacks. The subject
property is very narrow as is very common with the lots in Three Rivers Estates. This
tends to lead to structures being well within the require building setbacks. The existing
dwelling is located approximately 12 feet from the side property boundary on the south.
A deck was permitted on March 20, 2014 and constructed in accordance with the
approved permit. The deck did not protrude into the southerly side setback any further
than the existing single family dwelling. Further, there is existing mechanical equipment
(air conditioning unit) located in the southerly side setback. As the property owner, I’m
requesting a retroactive variance from the southerly side setback from 25 feet to 12 feet
for the existing single family residence and the permitted deck addition, and a retroactive
variance from the southerly side setback from 25 feet to 6 feet for the existing mechanical
equipment (air conditioner).
Given the structures are existing, permitted structures and equipment, there are special
conditions and circumstances which exist that are peculiar to the land, structure, or
building involved and which are not applicable to other lands, structures, or buildings in
the same zoning district.
2) The special conditions and circumstances do not result from the actions of the applicant.
Evaluation and Findings: There are no special conditions and circumstances that do not
result from the actions of the applicant. The existing deck was permitted through the
Columbia County Building and Zoning Department.
3) Granting the variance requested will not confer on the applicant any special privilege that
is denied by these Land Development Regulations (“LDRs”) to other lands, buildings, or
structures in the same Zoning District.
Evaluation and Findings: The granting of the variance requested will not confer on the
applicant a special privilege that is denied by these LDRs to other lands or structures in
the same Zoning District. Many of the lot within Three Rivers Estates have been granted
variances for the same or similar reason as the variance requested. It is not possible for
the narrow lots within the Three River Estates to meet the setback requirements of the
ESA Zone District.
Page 1 of 2
4) Literal interpretation of the provisions of the LDRs would deprive the applicant of rights
commonly enjoyed by other properties in the same zoning district under the terms of the
LDRs and would work unnecessary and undue hardship on the applicant.
Evaluation and Findings: The literal interpretation of the provisions of the LDRs would
deprive the applicant of rights commonly enjoyed by other properties in the same zoning
district under the terms of the LDRs and would work unnecessary and undue hardship on
the applicant. The subject property would not be able to be built upon if the literal
interpretation of the provisions of the LDRs were applied; therefore, creating an
unnecessary and undue hardship.
5) The variance granted is the minimum variance that will make possible the reasonable use
of the land, building, or structure.
Evaluation and Findings: The proposed variance, if approved, would be the minimum
variance allowed given that the single family residence, deck, and mechanical equipment
are already in existence. The variance requested is to allow the existing structures to be
covered via the variance, not for the purpose of allowing construction closer to the
property line.
6) The grant of the variance will be in harmony with the general intent and purpose of the
LDRs, and that such variance will not be injurious to the area involved or otherwise
detrimental to the public welfare.
Evaluation and Findings: As previously mentioned, many of the lots in the Three Rivers
Estates have similar setback variances as the one being requested. These variances have
not been injurious or detrimental to public welfare. Likewise, the granting of the
proposed variance will not be injurious or detrimental to the public welfare. Given the
information above, it is anticipated that the granting of the variance will be in harmony
with the general intent and purpose of the LDRs, and that such variance will not be
injurious to the area involved or otherwise detrimental to the public welfare.
7) Limitations on subsequent written petition for a variance. No written petition by an
owner of real property for a variance for a particular parcel of property, or part thereof,
shall be filed with the Land Development Regulation Administrator until the expiration of
12 calendar months from the date of denial of a written petition for a variance for such
property, or part thereof, unless the board of adjustment specially waives said waiting
period based upon a consideration of the following factors:
a. The new written petition constituting a proposed variance different from
the one proposed in the denied written petition.
b. Failure to waive said 12-month waiting period constitutes a hardship to
the applicant resulting from mistake, inadvertence, or newly discovered
matters of consideration.
Evaluation and Findings: No application for a variance has been made in respect to the
subject property within the past twelve (12) months.
