Rose accessory structure variance appeal (V-26-004)

Description

Clayton Benio appealed a variance that let a 383-square-foot dog kennel sit 1.8 feet from the side yard where 5 feet is required. The council voted 5-1 to approve the appeal, overturning the variance.

Impact summary

The County Council denied it on Feb 17, 2026.

The variance is denied, so the kennel structure must be moved to comply with the setback; noise and dog-licensing issues remain separate code enforcement matters.
