Request
A request for an 7.5' variance from the required 10' front setback, as described in Section 35-310.01, to allow a carport to remain 2.5' from the front property line.
Executive Summary
The subject property is located at 16815 Winding Oak Drive, immediately southwest of its intersection with Golden Tree Drive. The applicant is requesting a variance for a carport to remain as constructed. The carport does not encroach into the side setback, so trespass and water runoff are not a concern. The applicant states that the carport is 2.5' from the front property line. However, staff does not concur with this measurement. The carport is nearly identical to one previously considered by the Board two houses up the street. That carport, which staff determined was nearly on the front property line, was denied by the Board of Adjustment, and has since been modified to meet the development code.
