By: W.E. Vroman

Lot 10, Block 3, Country Club Heights
Addition
"R-2" Single Family
Section 7-101.2D
encroachment into
side yard for an
Single Family
Same
Staff Recommendation:
to permit an
the rear yard and
addition to the house.
Proposed addition will eliminate, an existing carport and
provide a parking facility on the ground floor, with
additional living space above. The existing house sits well
back on the lot and the only access to the parking area is
through. a ten -foot alley to the rear of the property. This
alley also serves another house just east and south of the
subject property, and the alley dead ends near the second
house perhaps 75 feet to the south of this property.
Two other houses including Mr. Vroman's back up to this
house and have their frontage on Country Club Boulevard.
On site inspection shows how tight the arrangement of the
structures is. Two variances would be required to permit
this construction as proposed. (1) A rear yard variance to
permit a 14.5 foot encroachment and (2) a side yard variance
to permit encroachment of 1.3 feet along the north side of
the house,, lining up with the exisiting structures.
Staff believes that the proposed addition is excessive and
that no hardship exists to indicate approval should be
granted. Staff recommends denial of the variances
requested.
