The Kittelsons are requesting a variance to the lot coverage restriction to build a 2-car garage and a garage setback permit to be able to build this proposed garage in the sideyard. Issues of stormwater control and run-off were discussed as a difficulty in granting the lot coverage variance. Currently their lot coverage is at 38% and with the proposed garage, it will be 40.7%.
