Request

A request for a 4'11" variance from the 5' side setback requirement, as described in Section 35-371(a), to allow for an existing detached carport with overhang to be 1" away from the side property line.

Executive Summary

The subject property is located at 553 West Harlan Avenue. The applicant is requesting a decrease of the side building setback line for an existing detached carport with overhang in order to keep the existing detached carport where it is currently located. There are several structures encroaching on the side setbacks within this community. The detached carport was built without permits. Had the applicant applied for a permit, we would have informed the owner that you cannot build within the side building setback lines.

Code Enforcement History

On February 18, 2019 the applicant received a code violation for building the carport without a permit and for building the carport within the side building setbacks. The case is currently open.

Permit History

There is no permit history related to the detached carport on the property. The property owner is seeking a variance to allow for permit to be issued.
