It is intended to summarize the Ciiy's review or the questions raised r egarcinc <br />the installation or a concrete patio by Mr. Kueppers on his nrope!ty at 2420 Sunrise Dive <br />adjacent to property owned by Mr. Houie at 2430 Sunrise Drive. It is ine understancinc <br />of Ciry Starthat Mr. Houle has obie~ ed to the location oithe patio based on anro conc~ms: <br />one concern is over the drainage from that improvement, and a Bernd isa c:aim mat u-e <br />location of the patio violates the City's Zoning Ordinance. A third odiecdon was ~ ~isec <br />reaardino the use or the space for storage. It is Ciry Stall's opinion :hat the Z~rin_ <br />Ordinance precludes any outdoor storage in at least the ten Tee*. adjacent to the proce:-r <br />line. Mr. Kueooers was informed or this issue, and has agreed to remove any such etc.. ice <br />from the area. <br />With regard to the drainage issue, the City believes this to be a marten between the two <br />private property owners, and not one in which the City has any involvement. ,~s dis.:~ss <br />with both parties, improvements such as poured concrete on private orope.~ty typiraily cc <br />not require any City permit or review. The City makes no representations as to the proper <br />instailaiion of the pano Tor any purpose. <br />With regard to the Zoning Ordinance, start has indicated that pouring concre*.e has rot <br />been interpreted to be subject to the setbacks or setback exclusions. IU1y interDre~ticn c; <br />Secdon 903.030. C. has been that patios are not within `she meanine or any of those <br />improvemenis mentioned in this secdon. Moreover, the City Stmt is unaware ci any <br />previous enforcement of a se~ack requirement for similar improvements. <br />5 i 7 S VVAY=?.-.> eOUL ~/aRO. <br />R`~CNE d'. _ 595-?030 =A <br />?4RK. `AINN ESC-.~ = - - ~ '~ <br />Page 51 ~„ _ _ V ,~, <br />
