Country Club Lot 100, Forest Heights Place Add. "R-2" Single Family From the side yard setback provisions of Section 7-101.2/D.2 to permit a building addition with a 3.5-foot setback. (Ordinance requires 8 feet.) Internal structural configurations or unusual lot configurations. Present Use of Property: Propose Use of Property: STAFF REPORT A. B. Single Family Residence Same Engineering Issues None have been reported at this time. Staff Analvsis The proposal is to construct a 10' x 11.5' addition to the rear of the residence. This new construction will provide additional space and a needed closet for a bedroom. The expansion will extend the existing building line. The interior configuration of the structure appears to restrict the expansion except to the south as is proposed. Also, the structure is located much closer to the west property line so that creates the need for a variance. The addition will Still provide an adequate rear yard, and there will be good separation between it and the residence to the west so any impact from the expansion will be minimal. Because the additional room is needed at this particular location, any exterior construction would require a variance. The staff feels the variance is justified and supports the reduced side yard. September 17, 1984 Item No. 1 - Continued C. Staff Recommendation Staff recommends approval of the variance as filed. BOARD OF ADJUSTMENT ACTION: The applicant was present. There were no objectors present. After a brief discussion, a motion was made to approve the variance as filed. The motion passed by a vote of 5 ayes, 0 noes and 4 absent.
