Request
A request for a 10 foot variance from the 20 foot minimum rear setback requirement, as described in Table 35-301-1, to allow a home to be constructed 10 feet from the rear property line.
Executive Summary
The subject property is located at 1819 North Hackberry Street 180 feet East of Austin Street. The subject property is a vacant lot on which the applicant plans to build a home. This neighborhood consists of modest homes with front porches, garages in the rear, and front yards all of which increase community engagement and create a sense of community. The applicant proposed to build an attached garage in the front of the proposed home. As described Section 35-370 (b), a garage must be built 20 feet from the property line. The applicant wishes to reduce the rear setback requirements by 50% to accommodate a design which places a garage in the front of a home. Unfortunately, placing a garage in the front of a home is inconsistent with the housing designs throughout the neighborhood.
