Request
A request for 1) a two foot variance from the minimum three foot side setback to allow a carport one foot from the side property line and 2) a seven foot variance from the minimum ten foot front setback, both as described in Table 35-310-1 to allow a carport three feet from the front property line.
Executive Summary
The applicant has started construction of a large, detached carport in the front yard of the corner-lot property. The applicant was cited by Code Enforcement for construction within the front and side setbacks and for building without a permit. Currently, the carport covers much of the front yard of the property and is intended to provide shade and protection from the elements for several vehicles. Because the structure is detached from the dwelling and has no eave overhang the carport may be allowed to be three feet from the side property line. The applicant is seeking two variances to allow the carport to remain.
