Our master bedroom and bath is currently upstairs, but my husband was in an accident and he can no longer easily negotiate the stairs. We need a bedroom and bath on the main level. The one-story addition would be built on the existing footprint of what we would be removing. We would like to add a two car garage at the end of our driveway that would connect to the new addition for security purposes. Our cars have been broken into numerous times in the past. For the garage to be wide and deep enough we need to build about four feet from the property line. The space is tight and we are trying to maneuver around the corner of the existing house. Our plans also include a remodel of our outdated kitchen. Thank you for your consideration, Vicki and Joe Pevahouse To whom it may concern: j4e..4— '4 Z- 3° YS Dr. and Mrs. Pevahouse visited with us concerning their plans to alter the existing structure on their property. During the discussion, they clearly stated their intention to build outside of the current zoning regulations. We willingly signed their petition to present to the zoning commission. Although our preference is to maintain the demands of the current zoning regulations, we do not wish to impede their progress. Thank you, Justin Seale Amy Seale ALBERT B. BRAUNFISCH 1 EDGEHILL ROAD LITTLE ROCK, ARKANSAS 72207 June 21, 2019 Board of Adjustment City of Little Rock Planning and Development Department 723 West Markham St Little Rock, AR 72201 Dear Sirs: We are writing in regard to the proposed remodel at #3 Edgehill Road, Little Rock, AR 72207. We have lived next door to the property for almost 15 years. Over those years, we have watched many of the homes in and around us go through massive renovations, remodels and absolute teardowns with subsequent new construction. As long-term residents of the neighborhood, we are very mindful of the importance of maintaining the integrity of the neighborhood and the intent of the original developers. Therefore, we were very pleased with the planned changes next door to us at #3 Edgehill. The owners have worked closely with their architect and builder to find a way that embraces and preserves the unique character of the home in harmony with its surroundings. We encourage the Board to accept the plans as submitted and believe the envisioned changes will enhance the property, improve livability and appropriately compliment the homes surrounding it. Sincerely, Albegrau Traci A Braunfisch Dear Commissioners, My name is Barbara Rogers Hoover and I live at 5 Edgehill Road in Little Rock. I heartily endorse the new plans that Joe and Vicki Pevahouse have presented to me for their 4 Edgehill home residence. It will only enhance their home and our neighborhood. I hope you will unanimously approve their application. Most sincerely, Barbara Rogers Hoover June 23, 2019 JUNE 24, 2019 ITEM NO.: 1 File No.: Z -3045-B Owner: JBP Revocable Trust Applicant: Vicki Pevahouse Address: 3 Edgehill Road Description: Lot 4, Edgehill Addition Zoned: R-2 Variance Requested: Variances are requested from the area provisions of Section 36-254 to allow a building addition with reduced side and rear setbacks. Justification: The applicant's justification is presented in an attached letter. Present Use of Property: Single Family Residential Proposed Use of Property: Single Family Residential STAFF REPORT U11 Public Works Issues: No Comments Building Codes Comments: The required fire separation distance (building to property line) prescribed by the building code terminates at five (5) feet. Buildings are allowed to be closer than five (5) feet if they have properly constructed fire walls which provide the requisite one (1) hour fire resistance rating. When buildings are five (5) feet or more from the property line, the requirement no longer applies to the wall itself, only the projections such as eaves or overhangs. Openings such as doors and windows are limited when the exterior wall is three (3) feet from the property line, and are prohibited when the exterior wall is less than three (3) feet from the line. There is no restriction on openings when the exterior wall is more than three (3) feet from the property line. Contact the City of Little Rock Building Codes at 371-4832 for additional details. JUNE 24, 2019 ITEM NO.: 1 Z -3045-B C. Staff Analysis: The R-2 zoned property located at 3 Edgehill Road is occupied by a two-story brick single family residence. The property is located on the north side of Edgehill Road, east of Beechwood Street. A one -car wide driveway from Edgehill Road is located at the southwest corner of the property. The driveway widens to a two (2) car width and runs along the west property line to the northwest corner of the lot. An in -ground pool is located within the rear yard area, with a pool house at the northeast corner of the property. The residence extends to within 4.1 feet of the rear (north) property line. The front wall of the residence is located approximately 98 feet back from the front (south) property line. The applicant proposes to remove the rear two (2) story portion of the residence and construct a new one (1) story addition, (approximately 2,500 square feet) as noted on the attached site plan. The proposed addition will include a bedroom, bath and two -car garage. The proposed addition will be located four (4) feet back from the rear (north) property line and four (4) feet back from the west side property line. A small porch is proposed at the east end of the proposed addition. A proposed porch addition is also proposed at the west end of the existing residence. Section 36-254(d)(2) of the City's Zoning Ordinance requires a minimum side setback of eight (8) feet for residences in R-2 zoning. Section 36-254(d)(3) requires a minimum rear setback of 25 feet. Therefore, the applicant is requesting variances from these ordinance standards to allow the proposed addition with reduced side and rear setbacks. Staff does not support the side and rear setback variances as requested. Staff is not comfortable with supporting the requested rear setback variance. Although the existing house is located very far back on the lot, the requested rear setback of four (4) feet is a very substantial encroachment, 84 percent encroachment into the required setback. The proposed addition would also be located relatively close to an existing building on the property immediately to the north. Staff also has concerns with the overall massing of the proposed addition in the rear yard area. The existing pool and pool house occupy a large portion of the rear yard area. The proposed addition will essentially occupy the remaining rear yard area, leaving virtually no rear yard area, except the deck area around the pool. Staff is not comfortable in supporting the addition as requested. D. Staff Recommendation: Staff recommends denial of the requested setback variances. Fil JUNE 24, 2019 ITEM NO.: 1 Z -3045-B Board of Adjustment (June 24, 2019) Staff informed the Board that the staff recommendation had changed on this item. Staff recommended approval of the application, subject to compliance with the Building code requirements as noted in paragraph B. of the staff report. The item was placed on the consent agenda and approved as recommended by staff. The vote was 4 ayes, 0 noes and 1 absent. 3 To Whom it May Concern: My husband and I would like to tear down the two-story back part of our house and replace it with a one-story addition. Our master bedroom and bath is currently upstairs, but my husband was in an accident and he can no longer easily negotiate the stairs. We need a bedroom and bath on the main level. The one-story addition would be built on the existing footprint of what we would be removing. We would like to add a two car garage at the end of our driveway that would connect to the new addition for security purposes. Our cars have been broken into numerous times in the past. For the garage to be wide and deep enough we need to build about four feet from the property line. The space is tight and we are trying to maneuver around the corner of the existing house.
