Request
A request for a 13.5' variance from the 20' rear setback, as described in Section 35.310.01, to allow the structure to have as little as 6.5' rear setback.
Executive Summary
The subject property is located at 100 Faust Avenue on the corner of Matyear Road, approximately 564' north of West Commerce Street. The applicant is applying for a rear setback variance to keep an addition that was built without permits. Currently, the addition is detached, however because the property is located within the 100-year flood plain, building code requires the addition to be attached. The lot is located adjoining a rear alley way which provides some setback relief for the addition. The structure to the west currently provides only 1' of distance to the property line but will be removed to comply with the site plan of 6'. The code only requires a 5' side setback.
The general characteristic of the district consists of small primary residences and detached accessory dwelling units. 100 Faust's east property line faces an adjacent commercial property, which provides parking for a college prep high school.
