Council District:|1010|Location:

Request
A request for 1) a 15 foot variance from the 20 foot zoning rear setback, per Section 35-310, to allow a home to be five feet from the rear property line and 2) a variance from the "R-4" Residential Single-Family zoning maximum of two and a half story construction, per Section 35-310, to allow three habitable levels.
Executive Summary
The subject property is located at the northwest corner of the South Trinity Street and El Paso Street intersection. The applicant is seeking variances to reduce the rear setback as well as permit three habitable levels. The Unified Development Code allows up to two and a half habitable levels, and a maximum of 35 feet in height. The proposed design meets the 35 foot height limitation, but requires a variance to allow three full stories. Lastly, the subject property is a reverse corner lot which presents additional development challenges.
