Request
A request for a 10 foot variance from the minimum 20 foot rear setback, as described in Table 35-310, to allow an addition 10 feet from the rear property line.
Executive Summary
The subject property measures 65 feet wide, 99 feet deep and includes 6,435 square feet of lot area. The existing house is setback 45 feet from the front property line, and measures 33 feet deep. The owner is hoping to construct a building addition up to 10 feet from the rear property line. The minimum rear setback is currently 20 feet, but up until 2009 when the property was zoned MF-33, the rear setback was 10 feet. A variance is required to allow the proposed addition.
According to the application materials, the proposed location was selected to allow the bath room to be relocated near the kitchen for plumbing reasons. The original cast iron sewer line was recently replaced but only to one side of the structure.
