Request
A request for a five foot variance from the required 20 foot rear setback, as described in Section 35-310.01, to allow a dwelling to have a 15 foot rear setback.
Executive Summary
The subject property is located at 3506 Morales Street, approximately 50 feet west of NW 23rd Street. The property was formerly zoned "B" Duplex District, and in 2001, upon the adoption of the 2001 Unified Development Code, converted to the current "R-4" Residential Single-Family District. Section 35-D101(j) allows two dwelling units on properties that converted from "B" district to "R-4" district. The applicant is seeking to convert an existing structure into a dwelling unit and construct an addition to it. The design meets the side setbacks, but is located five feet from the rear property line. The property has an alley behind it and the Unified Development Code allows one half the depth of the alley to count towards the rear setback. The alley is 20 feet wide. As such, between the five foot rear setback, and ten feet of the alley, the proposed design has a 15 foot rear setback, and requires a five foot variance.
