They are requesting a curb cut width of <br />26’ 8” be allowed. City ordinance allows for a maximum 26 foot curb cut/driveway width. <br /> <br />ANALYSIS <br /> <br />Capstone Homes, Inc. obtained a building permit in November 2017 to construct a new home <br />at 111 Robinson Drive in the Century Farms North subdivision. The certificate of survey <br />submitted with the building permit indicated a curb cut width of 16.1 feet. <br /> <br />The property owners purchased their home in March 2018. Due to winter conditions, the <br />driveway was installed in July 2018 by C&S Blacktopping, a Capstone Homes, Inc. sub- <br />contractor. The property owners negotiated with C&S Blacktopping to have the driveway <br />widened from16.1 to 26 feet. Unfortunately, the Grading As-built survey and field verification <br />confirmed the curb cut was 26.7 feet. This is 8 inches wider than allowed.
