The proposed height of the ;arage is <br />16 feet. The basis of the request is two-fold. The applicant would like the roof-line of the new <br />gara,�e to match the roof-line of the house, wI-iich has a fairly steep slope, The other reason for <br />the variance request, and the basis for the hardship, is that the City is requiring Mr. Gates' work <br />truck �o be parked within his garage or to have it removed from the property altogether. (His <br />work truck is a commerciai vehicle as defined by City Code and as sucl� is not ailowed to be <br />parked outside in a residential district.) Because the truck is too tall to fit within a typically sized <br />garaae, Mr. Gates needs to install an e[even�faot gara;e door, thu� raising the height of the <br />�roposed garage by ot�e foot. <br />On August 13, 1998, the app[icant obtained a building permit to expand his garage, which <br />invoived movin�,� the existing garage back approximately fourteen feet and constructing addi�ional <br />�araae space with a new door in the front, to matcl� the front [ine and roof line of the house. <br />:�fter having receivecf an anonymatas complaint abouT commercial vehicles parked at ttae <br />applicant's Itouse, stafi sent a leiter dated 9/4/98 which informed the applicant of the City Code <br />r�c�uirement prohibiting commercial vehicles from being parked autside in a residential district. <br />
