INTEROFFICE MEMORANDUM
TO: Mayor and City Council
VIA: Jonathan N. Rorie, City Manager
FROM: Robin Bechtel Cailloux, AICP Planning and Development Director
Dave Borkowski, PE City Engineer
DATE: January 2, 2022
SUBJECT: Public Hearing: Consider Variance Request, Watershed protection buffer,
169 Interlochen Drive
January 6, 2022 City Council Meeting
Discussion:
The Applicant is requesting relief in the form of a variance from the 100-foot undisturbed
buffer around Lake Kedron [Section 1004(a)] of the Land Development Ordinance. The
Applicant proposes to construct a pool in this buffer. The proposed encroachment is a
maximum of 16 feet into the buffer and covers about 279 square feet.
The property is located on the southern end of Lake Kedron. It slopes from the street
down to the lake. The existing house is constructed nearly to the 100-foot undisturbed
buffer line.
The application was sent to the Fayette County Water Department for their review
because Lake Kedron’s buffers are a part of the County’s Water System Reservoir
Management Plan’s protected lands. The official response from the Director of the Water
System states that they do not support the request for a variance within the lake’s 100-
foot undisturbed buffer. The letter is attached to this memo.
As part of the application, the Applicant has included a site plans showing the proposed
development in relation to the 100-foot undisturbed buffer line and a letter of support
from the adjacent property owner next to the proposed pool.
Variance Consideration
In accordance with Section 1303 of the Land Development Ordinance, variances shall
only be granted if:
(a) Relief, if granted, would be in harmony with, or could be made to be in
harmony with, the general purpose and intent of the land development
ordinance; or
Page 37 of 44
(b) The application of the particular provision of the land development
ordinance to a particular piece of property, due to extraordinary and
exceptional conditions pertaining to that property because of its size,
shape, or topography, would create an unnecessary hardship for the owner
while causing no detriment to the public.
Variance Criteria
Section 1303 of the Land Development Ordinance states the City Council shall not grant
a variance unless all of the following findings can be made
(a) There are special circumstances applicable to the property, including
location, shape, size, surroundings, or topography so that the strict application
of this ordinance denies the property of privileges enjoyed by other property in
the vicinity and under identical zoning district classification;
Staff Comment: There are no known special circumstances applicable to the
property.
(b) The strict or literal interpretation and application of this ordinance would result
in practical difficulties or unnecessary hardships inconsistent with the general
purpose and intent of the Land Development Ordinance, or would deprive the
Applicant of privileges granted to others in similar circumstances;
Staff Comment: No evidence has been provided showing that the strict
application of the ordinance would create unnecessary hardships.
(c) There are exceptional or extraordinary circumstances or conditions applicable
to the property involved or the intended development of the property which
preclude the applicant from complying with this ordinance and that do not
apply generally to other property in the same zoning district and which prevent
the applicant from complying with existing regulations;
Staff Comment: There are no known extraordinary circumstances applicable
to this property. City staff is unaware of any variance granted to the
undisturbed buffer around Lake Kedron.
(d) The granting of such variance will not constitute the granting of special
privileges inconsistent with the limitations on other property in the same zoning
district;
Staff Comment: Granting of the variance appears to constitute a special
privilege not granted to other properties within the community or around Lake
Kedron.
(e) The granting of such variance will not be materially detrimental to the public
health, safety, or general welfare nor injurious to property or improvements in
the zone or neighborhood in which the property is located; and
Page 38 of 44
Staff Comment: The 100-foot undisturbed buffer ordinance is in place to prevent
incremental deterioration of the water quality within Lake Kedron. Granting the
variance could have a detrimental effect on the natural environment as well
as the health of the public drinking water system.
(f) The granting of such variance will not create inconsistencies with any objective
of the Comprehensive Plan.
Staff Comment: Granting the variance would be inconsistent with the
Comprehensive Plan policy of protecting environmentally sensitive land and
lakes.

RE: Variance Request – 169 Interlochen Drive, Peachtree City
The request to build a pool within the Lake Kedron water-supply project lands is not granted. Under
Section 6.07.03 (h) Prohibited Activities of the 2016 Fayette County Water System Reservoir Management
Plan, construction of swimming pools is prohibited within the lakes’ project lands. Project lands create a
natural buffer area extending 150 ft. horizontally from the normal pool boundary.
Sincerely,
Vanessa Tigert
