Request

A request for a 4'11" variance from the 5' side setback requirement, as described in Section 35-310.01, to allow for an existing attached carport to be 1" away from the side property line.

Executive Summary

The applicant is requesting a decrease of the side building setback line to allow for an existing attached carport in order to keep the existing attached carport where it is currently located. The homeowner needs to encroach on the side setback requirement in order for there to be ample space to pull their vehicle into the driveway. The lot directly adjacent to the carport is vacant and is owned by the owner of the subject property. The attached carport was built without permits. The subject property is surrounded by single family residential properties.

Code Enforcement History

On June 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 attached carport on the property. The property owner is seeking a variance to allow for permit to be issued.
