This is not consistent with my experiences.
He should be able to build a parking pad right up to the property line without a variance. However, based on the photos, it doesn't look like he'll have enough on the left side to be able to do that without crossing over.
If he needs a variance for any reason, the AHJ will notify all adjoining property owners. In Raleigh, if a neighbor opposes, that generally puts the brakes on things by shifting the burden of proof to the applicant.
The bigger question is: is there a HOA (probably), and what do they have to say about it?
Well what I was saying is that the variance is not the correct tool to use in this situation. There would be no need for one, because one probably would not fit in this case.
