For <br />outdoor ramps in the front yard, the variance requirement would be repealed <br />and be replaced with a design review by the City Planner. A section of the <br />code pertaining to driveways was inadvertently not amended back in 1994 <br />that allows detached garages to be built at side setbacks of less than five <br />feet under certain conditions.
