339 Grand St Croton-on-Hudson NY 10520
1/2/2025
On 2008, a previous appeal has been made and granted for a side and front yard
| am seeking approval for a variance for a back patio cover/pavilion, attached to the dwelling.
The pavilion is located in the back yard and is not to produce an undesirable change or become a
detriment to nearby properties due to the materials used to exactly match the existing dwelling.
The purpose of the pavilion is for protection from the sun/weather and to extend the use and enjoyment
of our outdoor back patio.
The variance area requested is_|Q. sy feet and located in the side yard. 4 \\.S feat rear oad .
The pavilion is contained to the 339 Grand St property rear yard. The proposed variance would not
change the essential character of the neighborhood due to the concealed location.
The construction of the pavilion is self-created due to the only possible location due to the size of the
property.
| thank you for your consideration.
