Planning Case VA2016-001 <br />October 19, 2019 <br />Page 2 <br /> <br />An Administrative Variance may be granted for an encroachment up to 25% of City Code <br />requirements 3. Twenty-five percent of 45’ is 11’-4”. The request is for a 5’ encroachment, <br />thus, the request is consistent with City Code. <br /> <br />Notice of this meeting was mailed to the seven adjacent property owners, as required by <br />City Code.4 <br /> <br />Summary <br />The applicant requests to replace the concrete stoop (stairs) with a 5’ X 5’ covered stoop <br />(front porch), which would encroach 5’ into the front yard setback. The home is set back <br />about 45’ from the front property line, and is the nearest home to the edge of the right-of- <br />way, thus the minimum setback on this block, and on this side of Eastwood Rd is 45’. <br /> <br />Recommendation <br />Staff recommends review of the Administrative Variance contingent upon complying with <br />the conditions in Resolution 1059-16. <br /> <br />The Planning Commission is requested to consider the following options: <br /> <br />1. Resolution 1059-16, approving the review of the Administrative Variance is attached if <br />the Commission chooses this action. <br /> <br />2. The Planning Commission may choose to deny the Administrative Variance. If the <br />Commission chooses this option, Staff would direct the applicant to apply for a formal <br />Variance. <br /> <br /> <br />Respectfully submitted, <br /> <br /> <br />________________________ <br />Jon Sevald, AICP <br />Planner <br /> <br /> <br />Attachments <br />1.
