Request
A request for a request for a 5 foot variance from the 5 foot side setback, per Section 35-516, to allow a carport to be on the side property line.
Executive Summary
The subject property is located at 238 Astor Street. The subject property measures 75 feet in width and has alley access to a detached garage in the rear yard. The applicant was cited by Code Enforcement for construction of the carport without building permits in November of 2015. During that time, they pulled a curb cut permit for work in the public right of way but never addressed the carport. The carport is metal and built on or very near the side property line. The applicant is seeking a variance to allow the carport to remain as constructed. The carport meets the front setback. According to the applicant, the reason for the carport is due to health disability issues of family members. The homeowners have health issues, and have trouble walking. The carport has gutters that prevent the water drainage from going into neighboring properties, and the carport is made of metal. The width of the carport is 16 feet at the front, but exit stairs reduce the width by 4 feet at the side door.
