The Ordinance requires 8 feet. JUSTIFICATION: The carport will be rain cover over an existing concrete slab. When the existing garage is removed, the side yard for the principal structure will then be conforming. The current state of the land and buildings was annexed to the City. Present Use of the Property: Residence Proposed Use of the Property: Remain the same with covered parking area. STAFF REPORT: A. Engineering Issues There were none reported. Ba Staff Analysis The request as filed has some merit based on a suggested removal of the garage at a future time although the applicant suggested no date for such removal. The residence on the lot is in great measure impacted by its location on a collector street, nearby industrial and Highway Department maintenance facilities. The location of this canopy will in no way adversely effect any of the neighbors, residential or industrial. February 21, 1984 Item No. 5 - Continued C.
