4. Land Issues/Zonings/Annexations:
A. 2022-481 Public Hearing - Appeal the denial by the License and Variance Board
for Variance Request V22-055 - Allow encroachment into the 75-foot
impervious surface area setback - Lot 696 - 1921 Sadler Drive - Eddie
Karr by Wayne S. Melnick who resides at 1921 Sadler Drive SE,
Smyrna, GA 30080 as filed with the City Clerk's office on September 1,
2022 at 4:12 PM via electronic email.
Ward 6 / Councilmember Gould
Joe Bennett, City Administrator, provided the following background:
The applicant is requesting a variance to allow encroachment into the City's 75-foot
impervious surface area setback to allow for the construction of a new swimming pool
at 1921 Sadler Drive. The City's stream buffers are controlled by Chapter 46, Article
W
City of Smyrna Page 3
City Council Meeting Minutes - Final October 3, 2022
The property was originally platted in 2006, after the Stream Buffer Ordinance was
enacted in 2005 and no mitigation plan has been proposed for the property. The
hardship is self-created, as the lot of record has existed after the Stream Buffer
Protection Ordinance was adopted. Without a mitigation plan to offset any potential
effects of the buffer encroachment, staff cannot assume that there would be no
negative impacts to adjacent properties if approved.
Community Development recommended denial of the 75-foot impervious surface area
setback encroachment. The variance requests were denied by a vote of 3-0 at the
August 24, 2022 meeting of the License and Variance Board. The homeowner, Wayne
S. Melnick of 1921 Sadler Drive, has appealed that decision.
Caitlin Crowe, Planner 1, presented a detailed background:
The subject parcel is a 0.23-acre lot located on the north side of Sadler Drive (see
Figure 1). A stream runs through the northern border of the property and continues
through the adjacent western and eastern properties as well as a 15-foot drainage
easement just north of the deck on the rear of the home. The subject parcel and all
adjoining parcels to the east, south, and west are zoned RDA and are occupied by
single-family detached residences within the Stonecrest Manor subdivision. The
adjacent parcel to the north is in Unincorporated Cobb County and is currently vacant.
The applicant is proposing to build a 691 square foot in -ground swimming pool and
accompanying decking in the rear yard. Due to the existing stream, the rear yard is
encumbered by the State's 25-foot undisturbed stream buffer, the City's 50-foot
undisturbed stream buffer, and the City's 75-foot impervious setback. Thus, the
applicant will require relief from the City's Stream Buffer Protection Ordinance in order
to construct the pool and decking in the rear yard. However, due to the physical
constraints of the site, including the size of the lot and existing home, there is no
feasible area to install proper mitigation on the property to offset the disturbance to the
buffer. After a site visit on August 15, 2022, the Assistant City Engineer made the
determination that the 25-foot and 50-foot buffers are currently properly vegetated and
facilitate the protection of water quality and aquatic habitat, so a buffer remediation
plan would also not be applicable. After the site visit and review of the plans, the
Assistant City Engineer cannot support the variance due to a lack of a feasible
mitigation plan.
Per Section 46-160(b.1) within the Stream Buffer Protection Ordinance, variances may
be granted "where a parcel was platted prior to the effective date of this article, and its
shape, topography or other existing physical condition prevents land development
consistent with this article, and the community development department finds and
determines that the requirements of this ordinance prohibit the otherwise lawful use of
the property by the owner, the license and variance board may grant a variance from
the buffer and setback requirements hereunder, provided such variance require
mitigation measures to offset the effects of any proposed land development on the
parcel." Since the property was originally platted in 2006, after the Stream Buffer
Ordinance was enacted in 2005 and no mitigation plan has been proposed for the
property, staff cannot support a variance request at the subject property. Community
Development believes the hardship is self-created, as the lot of record has existed
after the Stream Buffer Protection Ordinance was adopted. Without a mitigation plan to
offset any potential effects of the buffer encroachment, staff cannot assume that there
would be no negative impacts to adjacent properties if approved and cannot
recommend approval.
City of Smyrna Page 4
City Council Meeting Minutes - Final October 3, 2022
The applicant is requesting relief from the City's 75-foot impervious surface area
setback to install a pool and decking in the rear yard. According to Section 46-160 of
the Stream Buffer Protection Ordinance, variances must be reviewed under the
following standards: (a) the shape, size, topography, slope, soils, vegetation and other
physical characteristics of the property; (b) the locations of all streams on the property,
including along property boundaries; (c) the location and extent of the proposed buffer
or setback intrusion; (d) whether alternative designs are possible which require less
intrusion or no intrusion; (e) the long-term and construction water quality impacts of the
proposed variance; (f) whether as a result of an exchange of buffer area the net buffer
area is not reduced; and (g) whether issuance of the variance is at least as protective
of natural resources and the environment. Engineering and Community Development
have reviewed the request against the variance review standards and found it to not be
in compliance with the standards due to the lack of a mitigation plan to offset any
effects. After a review of the standards above, Community Development believes that
the encroachment may adversely affect surrounding residents; therefore, staff
recommends denial of the requested variance.
Councilmember Welch asked if there is a concrete deck around the pool. Ms. Crowe
stated there will be a 1 - 2 foot decking around the pool. It would eliminate 282 sq. ft.
of impervious surface. Mr. Welch does not see that as being a detriment as long as
the remaining area is properly restored.
Mayor Pro Tem Gould asked if all the houses on the north side bump up against the
stream, and if those other lots would have similar challenges. Ms. Crowe stated that is
correct. Mr. Gould expressed that this issue brings about the question of setting a
precedent. If this homeowner is allowed to do this, then others could do the same, and
the encroachment on the stream buffer could create a problem.
Councilmember Wheaton asked what the purpose and goal of these buffers are. Frank
Carruba, Assistant City Engineer, stated that the intent of impervious setbacks are to
minimize the impact of stormwater runoff. By doing so, it reduces erosion
sedimentation, improves water quality and habitat corridors.
Wayne Melnick (1921 Sadler Drive), applicant came forward. He stated that when they
moved into the neighborhood, they submitted to the HOA the approval of their
neighbors. The HOA approved the application. The variance is more challenging
because it requires the approval of all adjacent homes, and in this case, it is a total of
six (6) approvals. Mr. Melnick stated it is important for Council to consider the
approvals of the six (6) neighbors and HOA. Of the total 715 sq. ft., 433 sq. ft. is
outside of the variance. 282 sq. ft. is the total effect. The pool to the creek is 77 feet.
There is a 30 foot decline from the back line of property to the creek which is an
entirely vegetated area. The vegetation slows the water down to minimize the concern
of sedimentation. This property was platted in 2006, annexed afterward, the properties
were built in 2008, and the neighborhood was finished in 2014.
Mayor Norton asked if the decking is permeable. A representative from Bellareed
Pools stated that they suggested permeable decking, but it was denied as an
unacceptable material. Mr. Carruba stated permeable concrete is an acceptable form
of mitigation; however, installing pervious pavers directly next to the house can cause a
negative impact on the foundation or basement. The pervious pavers would also be
installed under the existing deck, and the existing deck is impervious. Mitigation plans
were never submitted. Councilmember Welch asked why the pool is considered
impervious. Mr. Carruba stated that when the water levels rise above the maximum
City of Smyrna Page 5
City Council Meeting Minutes - Final October 3, 2022
levels in the pool, the pool will pump the water out onto the grounds.
Russell Martin, Community Development Director, stated that they requested a
mitigation plan multiple times from the applicant. No mitigation plan was ever
submitted. If there is no mitigation plan submitted, there is nothing for staff to
approve. The ordinance itself states that there has to be a mitigation plan in place.
Mr. Bennett confirmed with staff that no actual plans were submitted, only verbal ideas
presented, and they would need to submit actual plans. Mr. Martin concurred and
further stated that at a minimum it would need to include a site plan showing location
of mitigation and design specs of BMP.
It was suggested that this item be tabled so further discussion can take place
