• PLANNING COMMISSION <br />MEETING DATE: 5/18/93 <br />AGENDA ITEM: 4 <br />ITEM: Request for a variance of two feet in the required five <br />foot sideyard setback (Chapter 9 §2.04 Subdivision <br />1(c)) at 1447 West California <br />SUBMITTED BY: Mr. Ronald Jaschob, property owner <br />REVIEWED BY: Susan Hoyt, City Administrator <br />EXPLANATION/DESCRIPTION: <br />Mr. Jaschob is replacing his existing 20 ft X 22 ft garage with a <br />new 20 ft. X 22 ft. garage on his property at 1447 West <br />California Street (see attachment A). Because the garage <br />requires the removal and the replacement of all materials, it is <br />being considered a new structure and, therefore, must conform to <br />the zoning code. <br />Mr. Jaschob is requesting that the new garage be located in the <br />same place as the existing garage which is three feet from the <br />west property line rather than being five feet from the west side <br />property line as required by the zoning code. He has two <br />reasons: <br />1. If the garage is replaced five feet from the sideyard line <br />rather than three feet it will require widening his driveway <br />which will take up green space and require removing a fence <br />and wood planter. <br />2. The garage will conform in appearance to the neighbor's <br />adjacent garage. <br />As of this writing, Mr. Edwin Voss, the neighbor at 1453 West <br />California (westside of the property), called to state his <br />support for the request for a variance. <br />RECOMMENDATION: <br />The request for the variance is reasonable and meets the <br />requirements for granting a variance, particularly 9-15.03 (c). <br />ATTACHMENTS: <br />A. Site Plan <br />B. Letter from Mr. Jaschob <br />C. Draft Resolution <br />ACTION REQUESTED: <br />Adopt resolution granting a variance of two feet in the westside <br />setback for 1447 West California for the construction of a new <br />garage. (Variance in 9 - 2.04 Subdivision 1(c)) <br />
