SYRACUSE — Both cases brought before the Syracuse Board of Zoning Appeals were approved at its regular meeting Thursday night, Oct. 27.

Walter Hartley’s petition for a variance was to allow a deck to be rebuilt 6 feet from a north property line. The case was approved 4-0. The property is located on east side of Hansing Street, south of Bishop Street, at 1004 S. Hansing St.

A second variance was also approved. Tracy Beer’s petition was also approved 4-0. He wants to allow a residence to remain as constructed, 4.2 feet from the west sideline when 5 feet was approved by a prior variance in 2018.

The property is located on the north side of Medusa Street, east of Front Street, at 512 E. Medusa St.

Attorney Steve Snyder represented Beer. A contractor mismeasured some of the new home’s dimensions. The board then unanimously approved the revised variance agreement. There were no remonstrators.

The next meeting is at 6 p.m. Thursday, Nov. 17, at Syracuse Town Hall.
