Item No. 3 - Z-3488
Owner: E.L. Richards
Address: 3501 Chester Street
Description: Lot 1, Block 5, Woodlawn Addition
Zoned: "R-4" Two Family District
Variance: Waiver of Section 7-101.4D to permit an
encroachment of three feet into a
required side yard, allowing an
addition to an existing structure using
the same north wall alignment.
Present Use of
Property: Single Family Residence
Proposed Use of
Property: Same
Staff Recommendation:
Though this structure is in fact a nonconforming structure
both because of side and front yards, this is an ordinance,
created variance request. The front yard encroachment does
exist but is of no consequence relative to the proposed
construction.
What is at issue is the change in the side yard requirements
from five to eight feet in the duplex district. The
proposed addition will add nothing to the encroachments of
the structure.
Staff recommends approval.
