Request
A request for an elimination of the 5 foot side setback, as described in Section 35-310.01, to allow a carport to be located on the side property line.
Executive Summary
The applicant currently resides in the Harlandale Community and was originally platted in 1919. The applicant constructed a carport along the side property line without a permit and was cited by code. Before the current carport, there was a small carport present on the property. The current carport is much larger and appears to be closer to the property line than the previous carport. The current carport is constructed of wood and has gutters located along the side to mitigate water runoff. Per the application, the applicant states she has room for maintenance without trespass and provides the adjacent property with equal access to air and light. The applicant states the property related hardship is that her property only has one driveway as opposed to her neighbors who have two driveways. The applicant wishes to have a carport to shelter her vehicles from inclement weather and from the sun.
