Pace Variance — Trellis Side Yard Encroachment
Description
A Cheney Estates homeowner sought a variance to keep an unpermitted, detached open-air trellis just 15 feet from the street-side property line, where a 40-foot setback is required. The board unanimously denied it, agreeing with staff that the shallow lot isn't a true hardship.
Impact summary
The Board of Adjustment denied it on Jan 7, 2026.
The trellis must be removed or relocated; nearby neighbors supported keeping it, but the HOA opposed out of precedent concerns.
