Case Z 26-02 – 905 S. Henry St, James Campau, Carol Campau
A. The appellant is requesting a use variance from Section 122-192, Table of District Uses of the Bay City
Zoning Ordinance. Section 122-192 provides the allowable uses for the M-1 Light Industrial zoning
district. A parking lot as primary use is not permitted in the zoning district, and approval of a use variance
is required to authorize it.
B. The appellant is seeking a dimensional or non-use variance from Section 122-305, Industrial zoning
districts schedule of regulations for a zero setback. The regulations require a 20’ setback on both sides
and the zero-setback variance would allow for the proposed parking lot to fit on the parcel, as the lot is
undersized and cannot accommodate the required layout or dimensions that the zoning ordinance
typically requires for parking facilities.
C. The appellant is seeking a dimensional or non-use variance from Section 122-403 (2), Perimeter
Landscaping that requires a 5’ landscaped greenbelt. The regulations require a 5’ greenbelt on both the
north and south portion of the lot. The appellant is proposing a zero setback.
