Dominguez Shed Setback Variance (Permit #25-11144)
Rio Rancho
Description
A homeowner requested a variance to build a 384-square-foot shed just 5 feet from the rear property line instead of the required 15 feet. Staff recommended denial because the lot is standard in shape and the reasons given are convenience, not hardship.
Impact summary
If denied, the shed would need to be built farther from the fence, eating into the yard. If approved, the owner would still need utility company permission for the easement encroachment.
