Prepared By:

Request
A request for a five foot variance from the five foot minimum side setback, as described in Section 35-370 (b)(1), to allow a detached garage to be on the side property line.
Executive Summary
The subject property is located at the intersection of Bennington Drive and Darwin Drive. The applicant is seeking a variance to allow an accessory structure to be five feet from the side property line. The accessory structure is located in the rear of the subject property, parallel to Darwin Drive. Darwin Drive is adjacent to Zarzamora Creek, an un-zoned right-of-way. The accessory structure is used for storage of maintenance items and for vehicles. The structure has an eave overhang that encroaches into the public right-of-way, which is prohibited. As such, even if the variance is granted, a portion of the garage will need to be removed.
