Plat Map Background The applicant is requesting approval of lot area variance and a rear yard setback variance for the property at 3800 Casco Avenue. This property was recently re-addressed at the request of the new owner upon the sale of the two properties(which together were originally addressed 2750 Casco Point Road)as separate building sites.The subject property previously contained the detached garage serving the home on the northern of the two lots at 2750 Casco Point Road. A permit for a new home was issued in February for the northern lot(2750 Casco Point Road). The subject property is a corner lot on a curve of Casco Avenue with 12,807 square feet or 0.29 acres in area and 110' in width on the south side abutting the road where 0.50 acre and 100 feet in width are required. The south side is the narrower frontage,therefore is defined as the "front" for setback purposes. The rear yard setback variance is requested in order to orient the front of the proposed home to the northwest, in line with the other homes along Casco Point Road. They have proposed a front load garage off of the south side of the home.
