Prepared By:
Logan Sparrow, Senior Planner

Request
A request for 1) a two foot variance from the three foot side yard setback, as described in Section 35-370(b)(1), to allow a carport with no eave overhang to remain one foot from the side property line and 2) the elimination of the three foot rear setback requirement, as described in Section 35-370(b)(1), to allow the same carport to be on the rear property line.
Executive Summary
The subject property is located at 205 School Street, located at the northwest corner of the School Street and Doup Street intersection. The applicant was cited by Code Enforcement for construction of the carport without permits, and for the side and rear setback violations. In the application, the property owner states that School and Doup Streets are not wide enough to allow on-street parking. Additionally, on-street parking is prohibited during the hours of 7am to 9am, and again prohibited from 2pm to 4pm, as a result of school drop-off and pick-up from Riverside Park School across the street. The carport, which is made entirely of metal, is located one foot from the side property line, and on the rear property line.
