He stated that normally the setback for driveways in an R-1/R-2 district would be <br />five feet. He stated the Council had had concerns that the neighbors would have too much <br />power in granting this right to have the driveway there. He stated that there had been problems <br />where the driveway was located too close to the property line, and that the driveway even went <br />over the property line. <br />Director Ericson stated the issue had been to the Planning Commission, and that the Planning <br />Commission had recommended that the language be struck from the City Code, and if somebody <br />has a hardship that would warrant having a setback of less than five feet, then they would need to <br />go through the administrative variance process. <br />• <br />
