Request
A request for a 30 foot variance from the platted 30 foot front setback, as described in Section 35-516 (o), to allow a carport and a porch to extend into the platted setback.
Executive Summary
The subject property is located in the East Village Subdivision, recorded in 1968, and includes a 30 foot platted front setback. Recently, the applicant installed a metal carport that encroaches in the platted front setback. The applicant is requesting a variance to allow the carport to remain as constructed on the front property line. The carport does not encroach into the side setback, so trespass and water runoff are not a concern. The applicant constructed the carports to protect their new vehicles from inclement weather. The garage, as built, extends five feet into the platted front setback reducing the setback to 25 feet.
