The area of <br /> this property is 18,711 square feet, or .43 acres. Most of the lots in this neighborhood are of the <br /> same size, many of which are improved with similar types of split-entry homes with attached <br /> double car garages. The shed, described to be a barn-like structure fifteen feet tall, would be <br /> situated behind the in-ground pool as indicated on the site plan. <br /> The backyard of the Doroffs' property is enclosed by an eight-foot tall wood fence which offers <br /> complete screening of the backyard area from the adjacent neighbors. The area of the backyard is <br /> 6,880 square feet, of which 384 square feet would be taken for the shed. This would amount to a <br /> coverage rate of 6 percent. The Code limits backyard coverage of accessory buildings to no more <br /> than 20 percent. There is an existing shed that would be removed upon construction of the new <br /> shed. <br />
