C. The following shall not be considered as encroachments on required yard <br />setbacks: <br />1. Chintneys, flues, belt courses, leaders, sills, pilasters, lintels, ornamental <br />features, cornices; eaves, gutters, and the like, provided they do not <br />project more than two (2) feet into the required yard <br />2. a. Terraces, steps, uncovered porches, decks, stoops, or similar <br />features, provided they do not extend above the height of the <br />ground main entry level of the principal structure or to a distance <br />more than five (5) feet into a required front yard or less than five <br />(5) feet from a side lot line. <br />h. Patios and sidewalks, provided they are used for recreational <br />purposes only, may encroach into the required front, side, and rear <br />yards. Where such improvements encroach into an easement for <br />drainage or utility purposes, such improvement shall be subject to <br />the rights of the easement holder. <br />c. Within a required front yard, stoops, windows, energy conserving <br />attached vestibules, not exceeding forty (40) square feet, may <br />encroach no more than five (5) feet. <br />Lastly, the building permit granted to Mr. Miller does not allow for an eight -foot plus entryway. <br />The permit granted was for a porch of approximately four feet in length. Mr. Miller needs to <br />address this issue with the Building Official if he wishes the entryway to remain as constructed. <br />(Note: The Building Official has made the determination of the four -foot entryway based on <br />representations made on the Miller's permit application using scaling and measurements from <br />the drawings supplied by the applicant.) <br />cc: Steve Westerhaus, Building Official <br />David Miller, 2883 Condit <br />Joe Kueppers, Attorney for Millers <br />
