Request
A request for a 5' variance from the 10' front setback, as described in Section 35-310.01, to allow a carport to be 5' from the front property line.
Executive Summary
The subject property is located at 443 Mount Vernon Court, 60' west of Groos Avenue. The applicant is requesting to keep a carport built without permits within the front setback. 80% of the front yard is now under the carport. Currently pervious, the applicant will not seek to pave the area above the 50% impervious cover restriction.
The interior of the carport measures 11' in height, with the exterior roof extending beyond the roof line of the principal structure. Both sides of the carport measures 5' and above, thus no side setback variances are required. The carport is made entirely of wood, measures 40' in width, and 24' in length.
The general character of the neighborhood consists of single-family residences, limited front yards, and no carports within the immediate vicinity staff visited.
Code Enforcement initiated this case on February 20, 2020 due to setback violations. The applicant attempted to apply for a permit with staff on February 21, 2020.
