April 16, 2019 Page 2 Because a portion of the side yard paved space continues (in the current proposal) to be shown at more than 5 feet in width and closer than 5 feet to the side property line, a variance is still at issue for this dimension, although lesser in scope than originally required. As a result, Variances from each of these three standards are required to proceed with the project as planned. In reviewing the proposed improvements against the ordinance requirements, staff recommends approval of the front yard setback encroachment as proposed, denial of the side yard setback variance for the “patio”, and approval of the impervious surface coverage variance as now proposed. Staff has reviewed for height, yard setbacks, and other zoning standards; the request appears to meet all other code requirements.
