Council Member Lnenicka asked if sale of a portion of 3258 King Springs Road would create
some form of encroachment on that property, and Ms. Thompson said yes. Mr. Cochran stated
approval of the variance as proposed would be subject to both property owners coming to some
agreement and that the property at 3258 King Springs Road would be grandfathered against -

MOTION: Council Member McNabb made a motion to approve Variance Request V07-017 for
reduction of the setback requirement for driveways in the R-15 Zoning District from five feet to
zero feet at 3248 King Springs Road and 3258 King Springs Road. The motion was seconded by
Council Member Scoggins. Motion was approved 7 - O.
(B) Public Hearing- Variance Request V07-034 thru 037 - Waiver of minimum lot area and
lot width requirements in R-15 zoning district - 2794 Hillside Road - Tim Allen Homes,
LLC
Mr. Wright stated the applicant proposes to build two new single-family homes on the subject
property. Mr. Wright stated the subject tract comprises two existing lots of record which do not
meet current zoning standards for lot area and lot width. Mr. Wright stated the applicant is
requesting two variances for each lot to allow construction of two houses in place ofthe one
existing structure. Mr. Wright stated this request was referred from the License and Variance
Board in June because of citizen opposition. Mr. Wright stated staff recommends approval of all
four variance requests.
Mr. Suddreth showed the present officials a graphic representation of the subject property and a
proposed site plan for lots 6 and 7. Mr. Suddreth stated the two existing lots are comparable in
size to other lots in the surrounding subdivision. Mr. Suddreth stated staff believes the
requested variances will not adversely affect the surrounding residences and that approval
is recommended. Mayor Bacon asked if additional water runoff would be created by construction
of an additional house, and Mr. Suddreth stated the city engineer would have to make certain that
post-development water runoff does not exceed the predevelopment level.
-
Mayor Bacon recognized Mr. Brian Daughdrill, an attorney representing the applicant, and Mr.
Daughdrill stated the final plat for Cheney Woods subdivision was filed during August of 1954.
Mr. Daughdrill stated the subject property was platted as lots 6 and 7 and that the property has
retained this legal description throughout every subsequent deed of conveyance. Mr. Daughdrill
stated a copy of the chain of title and copies of all the certified plats have been filed as part of the
record. (Clerk's note: The referenced information is appended hereto as Exhibit "A") Mr.
Daughdrill stated all but a small number of lots in the subject area were developed as
originally platted. Mr. Daughdrill stated the proposed structures will each be less than 3,000 s.f.
in size. Mr. Daughdrill stated the requested variances will not create lots but will recognize
existing platted lots of record predating the City's code of ordinances. Mr. Daughdrill stated
there is no self-created hardship in this case because the developer did not create lots 6 and 7.
Mr. Daughdrill stated the two lots are not being created or subdivided because they have been in
existence for over fifty years. Mr. Daughdrill stated a strict application of the relevant provisions
of the zoning code would deprive the developer of reasonable use of the second lot. Mr.
Daughdrill stated the applicant is requesting the minimum variance needed to recognize two
existing platted lots of record. Mr. Daughdrill expressed the view that the two proposed
structures are of a scale which is not expected to be incompatible with the surrounding houses.
Mayor Bacon stated this is a public hearing and asked for public comment. and the oath was
administered to numerous persons by Mr. Cochran.

Mayor Bacon recognized Mr. Stephen G. Smith, Jr., an attorney representing Mrs. Susan
Wilkinson, and Mr. Smith stated his client is in opposition to the requested variances. Mr. Smith
stated that according to Section 506 ofthe City's zoning code" no lot, even though it may consist
of one or more adjacent lots of record, shall be reduced in size so that the lot width or depth, ...
lot area per dwelling unit or other requirements of this ordinance are not maintained..." Mr.
Smith stated the applicant's proposal for the subject property is not allowed by the City zoning
ordinance. Mr. Smith stated the applicant wants to separate the subject property into two non-
conforming lots. Mr. Smith stated the two lots combined meet R-15 requirements and that the
applicant is, in fact, creating a hardship in this case. Mr. Smith stated reasonable use of the
subject property is the same use that has exited there for over fifty years. Mr. Smith
stated he believes there is no grandfathering in this case because the applicant is seeking to
change the circumstances on the subject property. Mr. Smith stated he believes the requested
variances are not minimal in nature because the existing use requires no variances whatsoever.
Mr. Smith made reference to the case of Matheson v. Dekalb County which he believes
constitutes a pattern of facts similar to those found in this variance request. Mr. Smith stated
that according to this case local zoning authorities are not required to grant variances to allow
expansion. Mr. Smith stated there are legal grounds for the city council to deny these requested
variances. Mr. Smith stated the applicant's proposal would increase the amount of impervious
surface on the subject property. Mr. Smith stated a goal of the zoning ordinance is to decrease
density but the request under consideration would increase density. Mr. Smith stated the
unfinished basement component of the proposed structures will boost their square footage by a
considerable amount. Mr. Smith stated the applicant's proposal would change the character of
the neighborhood.
....
Mayor Bacon asked Mr. Daughdrill ifthe subject property was advertised as two lots at the time
it last changed hands, and Mr. Daughdrill stated the property was purchased with such an
expectation in mind. Mr. Daughdrill stated the applicant's affidavit indicates the subject property
has a certain value as separate lots and that maintaining the tract as one lot diminishes the value
of the property by about 35%.
Mayor Bacon recognized Mrs. Susan Wilkinson, residing near the subject property, and Mrs.
Wilkinson expressed the view that ifthe subject tract is subdivided the two resulting lots would
not be comparable to the lot upon which her house is built. Mrs. Wilkinson stated she is not
certain which lots Mr. Daughdrill was talking about. Mrs. Wilkinson stated she believes the
homes proposed by the applicant for the subject property will each have a basement comprising
some 3,000 s.f. Mrs. Wilkinson stated she believes each proposed house would be closer to 7,000
s.f. in size. Mrs. Wilkinson stated she is concerned about the stability and integrity of her
neighborhood. Mrs. Wilkinson expressed concerns about storm water runoff which could be
generated by new houses on the subject property. Mrs. Wilkinson stated she believes approval of
the variances as requested could set a precedent for future redevelopment in her neighborhood.
Mrs. Wilkinson commented favorably about the houses and scenery in her neighborhood. Mrs.
Wilkinson stated that building large houses on small lots would diminish the appeal of the
neighborhood. Mrs. Wilkinson stated there are many people in her neighborhood who feel the
same way she does about this matter. Mrs. Wilkinson provided to those present a summary of the
comments she received while collecting signatures on a petition expressing opposition to the
proposal under consideration.
-
Mayor Bacon recognized Mrs. Laura Pew, owner of the property at 2793 Hillside Road, and Mrs.
Pew stated she is opposed to this variance request and redevelopment proposal. Mrs. Pew stated
the proposal under consideration does not meet requirements for R-15 zoning. Mrs. Pew stated
the height ofthe proposed new structures wi II be about 37.5 feet and wi II be out of scale with

surrounding structures. Mrs. Pew stated the proposed new structures will not be compatible with
the neighborhood. Mrs. Pew stated she believes approval of the variances as requested could set
a precedent for future redevelopment in her neighborhood which will result in overcrowding and
destruction of trees and lawns. Mrs. Pew stated she believes approval ofthis variance request
will have a negative impact on the value of her property. Mrs. Pew asked the present officials to
deny this variance request.
-
Mayor Bacon recognized Mrs. Joan Mayfield, residing on Hillside Road, and Mrs. Mayfield
expressed the view that the zoning ordinance is being violated. Mrs. Mayfield commented
favorably about the houses and landscape in her neighborhood. Mrs. Mayfield stated her
neighborhood is stable. Mrs. Mayfield stated she would like to see the integrity of her
neighborhood protected by the zoning ordinances. Mrs. Mayfield stated her neighbors like the
stable atmosphere and ambiance in its present state. Mrs. Mayfield stated Cheney Woods is
different from newer neighborhoods and asked the city council to let the resident there have their
uniqueness, woods and shade trees. Mrs. Mayfield stated there are existing laws to protect homes
and zoning. Mrs. Mayfield stated the City's officials are here to protect the zoning they put in
place.
Mayor Bacon recognized Mr. James Swann, residing at 729 Timberland Street, and Mr. Swann
expressed concerns about storm water runoff which could be generated by new houses on the
subject property. Mr. Swann expressed concerns about loss of trees and loss of natural beauty on
the subject property which could result from the proposed construction.
Mayor Bacon recognized Mr. Ed Whittington, residing at 720 Pinehill Drive, and Mr.
Whittington stated he believes approval of the variances as requested could set a precedent which
will result in overcrowding of neighborhoods. Mr. Whittington stated no more "McMansions"
are needed in Smyrna. Mr. Whittington stated he is opposed to this variance request.
-
Mayor Bacon recognized Mrs. Lee Browning, residing at 2770 Hillside Road, and Mrs. Browning
stated two houses are not acceptable on the subject property. Mrs. Browning asked the present
officials to deny this variance request.
Mayor Bacon recognized Mr. Dave Lincoln, residing on Parkwood Road, and Mr. Lincoln stated
the character of the neighborhood should be maintained and that the proposed structures are
incompatible with existing ones. Mr. Lincoln stated greenspace should not be destroyed in order
to make money for someone. Mr. Lincoln stated the owner of the subject property could make
improvements to the existing structure and sell it. Mr. Lincoln commented favorably about the
trees in the subject area and the positive impact they have on the environment. Mr. Lincoln stated
he is opposed to this variance request.
Mayor Bacon recognized Ms. Julie Jenkins, residing at 858 Bank Street, and Ms. Jenkins stated
the proposed structures could jeopardize the integrity of the neighborhood.
Mayor Bacon recognized Mr. Murray Glass, residing at 850 Bank Street, and Mr. Glass stated
he is opposed to this variance request. Mr. Glass expressed concerns about storm water runoff
which could be generated by new houses on the subject property.
Mayor Bacon recognized Ms. Casey Clavin, residing in Williams Park, and Ms. Clavin stated
Cheney Woods is an intact neighborhood with mostly original structures in good repair. Ms.
Clavin stated the integrity of this area would be unfavorably compromised by the proposed
project. Ms. Clavin stated it is likely many trees will be lost if the proposed structures are built.

Ms. Clavin stated the Georgia Trust for Historic Preservation considers a structure or district to be
historic when it reaches fifty years of age. Ms. Clavin stated there are good reasons to want to
preserve this neighborhood. Ms. Clavin stated the existing structure at the subject location is a
viable one. Ms. Clavin believes approval of the variances as requested could set a precedent for
future redevelopment in this neighborhood. Ms. Clavin stated Cheney Woods is an ideal place
for elderly people to live for a number of reasons.
Mayor Bacon recognized Mr. Johnny Potter, residing at 4935 Hickory Mill Drive, and Mr. Potter
stated construction of the proposed structures would not destroy the surrounding neighborhood
but it will damage it. Mr. Potter stated water detention structures are unattractive. Mr. Potter
stated the proposed structures will be larger than existing houses in the subject area. Mr. Potter
expressed concerns about possible loss of trees in connection with this proposal. Mr. Potter
stated he believes his father would have changed the legal description of the subject property ifhe
had reason to believe it would prevent the type of redevelopment as proposed by the appl icant in
the subject area. Mr. Potter stated the proposed redevelopment may be legal but it would be
wrong.
Mayor Bacon recognized Ms. Bonnie Barnert, residing at 776 Pinehill Drive, and Ms. Barnert
stated she believes the subject neighborhood has a certain feeling which appeals to her. Ms.
Barnert stated the residents of her neighborhood are fortunate to have many young people living
there who appreciate the qualities ofthe houses there.
Mrs. Wilkinson stated she is opposed to this variance request. Mrs. Wilkinson stated she believes
approval ofthis variance request will have a negative impact on the value of her property.
-
Mr. Daughdrill stated Section 506 of the City zoning code is not applicable in this case. Mr.
Daughdrill stated the applicant is not altering the size of the lots. Mr. Daughdrill stated the
vesting in Matheson v. Dekalb County did not derive from a platted lot but rather from
construction of a duplex and the rezoning of the property to R-75. Mr. Daughdrill stated the
applicant's vested rights in this case do not stem from what was built on the property but from the
platting ofthe tract in 1954. Mr. Daughdrill stated stonn water management measures are
addressed by the city engineer and are not associated with the variance process. Mr. Daughdrill
stated the height of the proposed structures would be about 29' and the basements do not measure
3,000 s.f. Mr. Daughdrill stated Mrs. Wilkinson's house is built on a property which was
originally platted as two lots. Mr. Daughdrill stated any house on any lot in the subject area could
be removed and replaced with a new structure. Mr. Daughdrill stated that speculation as to what
the elder Mr. Potter mayor may not have done in regard to the legal description ofthe subject
property is not evidence and not properly before the council and that he objects to this statement.
Mr. Daughdrill stated the proposal before the council is a viable use for the subject property. Mr.
Daughdrill stated older ranch-type houses are considered by many people to be functionally
obsolete and they are being removed and replaced with newer structures.
Mrs. Pew posed questions regarding lot sizes in the subject area which were addressed by Mr.
Suddreth.
Mrs. Browning provided details to those present concerning the marketing of the subject property
a few years ago.
-
Mrs. Wilkinson stated the smaller lots in the subject area contain smaller houses which are
compatible with the lots.
July 9. 2007

Mrs. Wilkinson stated the property tax statement for her property reflects only one lot.
Mrs. Pew asked if the proposed structures will conform with the neighborhood covenants. Mr.
Cochran stated if the covenants are recorded with the deed and have not expired they mayor may
not be active. Mr. Cochran expressed the view that the covenants have no bearing on the
variance matter under consideration. Ms. Pew presented a copy ofthe covenants for inclusion in
the record. (Clerk's note: The referenced information is appended hereto as Exhibit "8" and a
petition from citizens in opposition to this proposal is appended hereto as Exhibit "C")
-
Council Member Smith acknowledged that he signed a petition expressing objection to this
variance request. Council Member Smith stated that, to be fair to all concerned, he will abstain
from discussing this matter and voting on it.
Council Member McNabb commented favorably about the positive manner in which the residents
of the subject area expressed their views on this subject. Council Member McNabb commended
Council Member Smith for taking responsibility for his actions and for his decision to abstain
from participation in this process. Council Member McNabb stated he will not contest the
applicant's assertion that he is within his rights to build two houses on the two separately platted
lots. Council Member McNabb stated he considers the structures proposed for the subject
property to be totally out of character with the surrounding neighborhood and for this reason he
will not support this variance request.
Council Member Pritchett stated she supports the rights of property owners, and that she is not
comfortable with the idea of elected officials imposing excessive restrictions on land use.
Council Member Lnenicka commented favorably about the civic-mindedness and civility
demonstrated at this meeting by the residents ofthe subject area. Council Member Lnenicka
stated this is the kind of community Smyrna is.
-
Council Member Newcomb stated Council Member Smith is doing the right thing by abstaining
from participating in this process and that he respects his decision.
MOTION: Council Member Newcomb made a motion to approve Variance Requests V07 -034
through V07 -037 for waiver of minimum lot area and lot width requirements in R-15 zoning
district for the property at 2794 Hillside Road for Tim Allen Homes, LLC. The motion was
seconded by Council Member Pritchett. Council Member Lnenicka stated he appreciates the
views expressed by the residents of the subject area and the he is proud ofthe cohesiveness they
find in their neighborhood. Council Member Lnenicka stated there is no overlay ordinance to
regulate such details as house size, exterior finish materials and orientation of structures on lots.
Council Member Lnenicka stated this is the way most people seem to want housing regulations to
be. Council Member Lnenicka stated he would consider an overlay ordinance if the members of
a particular community expressed interest in such regulations. Council Member Lnenicka
expressed the view that the illustrations ofthe proposed structures furnished by the applicant
seem insufficient because they are vague in many areas. Council Member Lnenicka stated
they do not appear to be the type of houses he would like to see built in the subject area. Council
Member Lnenicka stated he is unhappy with the high grass and weeds and other evidence of
indifferent maintenance he has observed at the subject property since the applicant took
ownership. Council Member Lnenicka asked the owner to make arrangements to have the grass
cut and the grounds cleaned up at the subject property tomorrow. Council Member Lnenicka
stated the issue under present consideration is the number of lots which legally exist on the
-

-
subject tract. Council Member Lnenicka stated evidence presented indicates there are two legally
existing lots at the subject location. Council Member Lnenicka stated he will support the motion.
Council Member Newcomb stated he believes the proposed structures are out of character with
the subject area, but there seems to be little doubt that there are two existing lots at the subject
location. Council Member Newcomb stated a subdivided view of the subject tract reveals two
lots which are not dissimilar in size from surrounding properties. Council Member Newcomb
stated he will support the motion. Motion was approved 4 - 2, with Council Members McNabb
and Wood in opposition and Council Member Smith abstaining.
Mayor Bacon stated he will veto this decision, and that he will communicate such intention in
writing to the council members. (Clerk's note: A copy ofthe notice of veto is appended hereto
as Exhibit "D")

COUNTY OF FULTON
STATE OF GEORGIA
AFFIDAVIT OF TIMOTHY ALLEN
Personally appeared before me, the undersigned notary public duly authorized to administer
oaths under Georgia law, Timothy Allen, on oath deposes and states as follows:
1.
My name is Timothy Allen, I am over 18 years old, am competent to testify and have
personal knowledge of the facts recited herein. I have been building houses in the metro Atlanta area
since 2001. I have extensively reviewed comparable lot sales and property sales in the Smyrna area
prior to purchasing a lot there.
2.
I, with the help of my real estate agent, researched the price of lots in the Smyrna area. We
purchased 2794 Hillside Road, Smyrna (the "Subject Property") with the intent of tearing down the
50+ year old home and building two new homes on the legal, nonconforming lots of record (Lots 6
and 7 of Cheney Woods Subdivision platted in 1952).
3.
I performed my due diligence by having my attorney, Shea E. Roberts, research the ability to
obtain building permits for the two lots. Upon her confirmation that the City Attorney had advised
Robin Broyles to accept building permit applications on each of the two lots, I closed on the Subject
Property at a price that was higher than if I were just buying the existing house.
4.
I have researched lot prices in the area of the Subject Property and, based on that research,
the fair market value of Lots 6 and 7 is approximately $175,000 per lot.
1.
Further Affiant Sayeth Not.

AFFIDAVIT OF SHEA E. ROBERTS, ESQ.
Personally appeared before me, the undersigned notary public duly authorized to
administer oaths under Georgia law, Shea E. Roberts, a licensed attorney in good standing in the
State of Georgia, on oath deposes and states as follows:
1.
My name is Shea E. Roberts, I am over 18 years old, am competent to testify and have
personal knowledge of the facts recited herein. I have been a licensed attorney in good standing
in the State of Georgia since July, 1996.
2.
I represent Tim Allen Homes, LLC on a multitude of land use and real estate matters in
several metro Atlanta jurisdictions. In late July, 2006, Mr. Allen called me regarding property
located at 2794 Hillside Drive within the City limits of Smyrna, Georgia (the "Subject
Property"). He was interested in purchasing the Subject Property, but was performing his due
diligence.
3.
After researching the chain of title on the Subject Property, it was clear that the legal
description of both legal lots of record had been preserved since the two lots were originally
platted in February of 1952 as Lots 6 and 7 of the Cheney Woods Subdivision. A house was
built across the common property line in 1955 prior to the enactment of a Zoning Ordinance
imposing side-yard setback for Lots 6 and 7. Mr. Allen's investment backed expectation when
deciding whether to purchase the Subject Property was use of the property as platted-two legal
lots of record-so that he could tear down the older house and build a new single family lot on
each of the two lots.
4.
As part of his due diligence, Mr. Allen met with City officials in the Community
Development Department regarding the process for obtaining an address and a building permit
for both Lots 6 and 7. He was informed that Lots 6 and 7 were substandard according to the
zoning designation that currently existed on the Subject Property. Mr. Allen requested that I
explore the issue further with the City so as to resolve any unanswered questions prior to his
closing on the Subject Property.
5.
I traveled to the City of Smyrna Community Development Department and spoke with
Mr. Robin Broyles who informed me that I needed to discuss the issue with the City Attorney,
Scott Cochran if Cochran, Camp & Snipes.
6.
On August 2, 2006, I contacted Mr. Scott Cochran regarding the need to obtain building
permits for Lots 6 and 7. I explained that Lots 6 and 7 were legal, nonconforming lots of record
and that the City could not retroactively apply a zoning ordinance that was not in effect in 1952
when the lots were created and was not in effect in 1955 when the house was constructed. Mr.
Cochran requested that I send him legal case citations supporting my proposition that even
though a house had been built over the two lots, the two lots were still legal lots of record that
were buildable. I redacted two letters that I had previously sent to the City of Avondale and the
City of Chamblee regarding this same issue, and I faxed them to Mr. Cochran.
7.
Within the next day or two, I followed up by telephone with Mr. Cochran and he
informed me that he had instructed Mr. Broyles to accept the application for two addresses
and/or building permits.
8.
I communicated this confirmation from the City Attorney to Mr. Allen, who completed
his due diligence, arranged financing and proceeded to close on the property in February, 2007
upon reliance of this information from the City Attorney.
9.
In March, 2007, Mr. Allen attempting to obtain the two addresses for Lot 6 and 7 so that
he could obtain building permits for the lots. He was informed that no one at the City
remembered the discussions from August, 2006.
10.
Despite the fact that Mr. Allen had closed on the Subject Property in reliance upon the
City Attorney's discussions with me, he was directed to file a variance.
Further Affiant Sayeth Not.
This cf- day of July, 2007.
