Request
A request for a 20 foot variance from the 30 foot platted front setback, as described in Section 35-516 (O), to allow a carport 10 feet from the front property line.
Executive Summary
The subject property was platted as part of the Babcock Place Subdivision, recorded in 1972. The subdivision plat includes a 30 foot platted front setback. The applicant wishes to build a carport 10 feet from the front property line, the UDC standard front setback, but due to the 30 foot platted front setback a variance is required before the applicant can construct the proposed carport.

The applicant stated he will correct the contractor's mistake and will move the posts ten (10) feet from the property line. He advised that he will get a new contractor to do the work.
