Request
A request for 1) a two foot variance from the ten foot front setback, as described in Table 35- 310.01, to allow a carport to be eight feet from the front property line and 2) a four foot and eleven inch variance from the 5 foot side setback, as described in Table 35-310.0 I, to allow a carport to be one inch from the side property line.
Executive Summary
The applicant is seeking a variance from both the front and side setbacks to allow for the carport to remain in its current location. The owner states that when he bought the property twenty years ago, the carport already existed. The applicant advised that due to the deterioration of the carport, he reinforced the existing column and replaced the roof. The applicant did the repairs without a permit. During the renovation, the size of the carport was expanded into the front setback.
