Variance – Description of Request <br /> <br />In April 2016 we are planning to remodel our house with an addition off the back <br />and expansion of our garage. The current garage is a small one‐stall garage that is <br />attached to the house and next to our neighbor’s house. The current size of the <br />garage is just barely large enough to pull in a full size car (see image attached). We <br />are barely able to open the doors on one side of the car (if we pull the car in closer to <br />one side) when the car is in the garage. To make this garage more useful we would <br />like a variance to move the outside wall closer to our property line on the South side <br />of the property. We would like to create a 2‐car tandem garage, we would do this by <br />bringing the front of the garage forward a few feet, and back a few feet (see example <br />image below). The majority of homes in our neighborhood were either built with 2‐ <br />car garages, or they were added later. We are hoping we can go to 3’ 6” off our <br />property line, which would give us about 2 more feet of space in the garage, which <br />should be enough to make it functional. <br /> <br />Current image of garage: <br /> <br />Image of tandem garage style: <br />15 15
