Case Number:
A-15-100
Applicant:
Juan Soledad
Owner:
Veronica Soledad
Council District:|1313|Location:
8318 Terra Ferna
Legal Description:
Lot 17, Block 32, NCB 18820
Zoning:
"R-6 AHOD" Residential Single-Family Airport Hazard Overlay District
Prepared By:
Logan Sparrow, Senior Planner

Request
A request for 1) a five foot variance from the ten foot front setback, as described in Section 35-310.01, to allow an existing carport to remain five feet from the front property line and 2) a request for the elimination of the five foot side yard setback, also described in Section 35-310.01, to allow an existing carport to remain on the side property line.
Executive Summary
The subject property is located at 8318 Terra Ferna approximately 250 feet north of Reed Road. The applicant constructed a large carport with an eave overhang and gutters and is located on the side property line. As the carport is attached to the dwelling, it also has to comply with the ten foot front building setback line and the five foot side yard setback line, both triggered by the "R-6" Residential Single-Family base zoning district. Two variances are requested to keep the carport as constructed. If approved, the applicant would still need to submit plans for a residential inspection to determine how best to fire rate the structure.
