Description:
Zoned:
Variance
Requested:
Justification:
Parents and Friends of Children, Inc.
1009 Wolfe Street
Lots 2 and 3 of Block 12
Marshall and Wolfe's Addition
"0-3" General Office District
From the side yard provisions of
Section 7-102.3/d.2 to permit a new
addition with a 3.6 -foot setback
We request a variance of this 10 foot minimum to 316" in
order to be able to match existing structure on the south
side of the building. This will help provide the additional
space we need and cause the structure to look better to
enhance the beauty of the area. If we have to bring the
addition in 10 feet, we will lose over 100 square feet of
office space we desperately need.
Present Use of
Property: Charitable Organization/Lodge
Proposed Use of
Property: Remain the same
STAFF REPORT:

this variance. The addition adversely effects no one.

the 'front yard is maintained per ordinance.

BOARD OF ADJUSTMENT ACTION:
The staff offered its recommendation. There were no
objectors present. The owner was represented by Mr. Don
Capehart. He made a brief comment on the request. The
Traffic Engineering staff requested removal of the existing
driveway off Wolfe Street if possible. The applicant stated
that could be accomplished inasmuch as only one car now uses
that space. After a brief discussion, a motion was made for
approval subject to removal of the driveway. The motion
passed by a vote of 5 ayes, 0 noes, 1 absent, 1 abstention
and 2 open positions.
