    new shop and zoning issues

    Good evening gentlemen,

    I have been nosing around here for and absorbing vast quantities of valuable information, thank you all for your insights. I did a search and came up empty. I am wanting to build a 30 x 50 shop behind my house. I have a .33 acre lot and can stay clear of my easements, but the city says i can only build an 800 sf building. My question is whether or not there is any way around the zoning laws to get this done. the city ordinance says also that there may be no more than 2 buildings in addition to the principle structure. (2) 20 x 40's???? also what about if its attached to the house??(addition) have any of you circumvented the rules to get this done in your area? if so i would really love a bit of clarification on "attached to home". Thank you in advance for your responses.

    it should be noted that my home is zoned r-1 and 1 block over there is a landscape supply company(zoned light industrial) and agricultural zoning. What could be a compelling argument for a variance?
