<br />Horbul CUP Request <br />May 17, 2006 <br />Page 2 <br /> <br />The Comprehensive Plan encourages the development and maintenance of residential areas <br />so as to improve the quality, appearance and attractiveness of housing units and residential <br />property in general. The Comprehensive Plan designates this property, 8382 Knollwood <br />Drive, as low-density residential. <br /> <br />CUP Considerations: <br /> <br />Chapter 1125 of the Zoning Code requires that the Planning Commission review and address <br />any potential adverse effects which include, but are not limited to, relationship with the <br />Comprehensive Plan, geographical area involved, potential depreciation, the character of the <br />surrounding area and the demonstrated need for such a use. Each of these potential <br />adverse effects is addressed below. <br /> <br />Relationship with the Comprehensive Plan. As previously stated, the Comprehensive Plan <br />encourages the development and maintenance of residential areas so as to improve the <br />quality, appearance and attractiveness of housing units and residential property in general. <br />By having a larger garage the applicants would be able to store their recreational vehicles <br />inside, which would be a benefit to the neighborhood. <br /> <br />The Geographical Area Involved. The home is located on Knollwood Drive, near the northern <br />end of the city. Since the additional space for the garage will be in the back, the building will <br />still appear to be a normal three car size garage from the street. In this case, the proposed <br />oversized garage would not be out of place in this neighborhood that has large, deep <br />backyards. Although, it would somewhat block the view across the backyards from the <br />adjoining neighbor’s property. <br /> <br />Depreciation. The proposed garage would benefit the subject property both in a practical sense <br />by providing additional on site, indoor parking and storage, as well as in an economic sense, as <br />the construction would increase the “value” of the property. Increased property values are of <br />course a benefit to everyone. <br /> <br />The Character of the Surrounding Area. Knollwood Drive is strictly a residential neighborhood. <br />All of the homes on this street were constructed in the mid-1970’s. The proposed garage <br />would not be out of character in this area since the addition would not be easily visible from the <br />street. The front appearance of the garage would not change with this addition. <br /> <br />The Demonstrated Need for Such a Use. The applicants are proposing a 24’x30’ garage <br />addition which would allow for more indoor parking and storage space. The applicants would <br />like to be able to park their recreational vehicles inside the garage (boat, motorcycle, ATV, and <br />trailer) . <br /> <br />Summary: <br /> <br />All zoning and code issues are satisfied with this request.
