3020 Peach Tree Drive
Lot 6, Sandpiper South
R-2
A variance is requested from the
area regulations of Section 36-254.
The applicant is trying to save
mature trees and still construct
the size house required for the
neighborhood.
Vacant lot
Single Family residence
The applicant proposes to construct a new single family
residence on the R-2 zoned lot located at 3020 Peach Tree
Drive. As proposed, the house will have a rear yard setback
of 20 feet. The Code requires a rear yard setback of 25
feet for this lot. The applicant states that the house was
situated as shown to save mature trees on the lot, including
a 21 inch oak tree.
Staff believes the variance request to be reasonable. The
variance is for only a small corner of the rear part of the
residence and should not affect any adjacent properties.
All other required setbacks will be met or exceeded. The
lot is relatively shallow on the east side, only 96.48 feet
deep. Combined with the required 25 foot front yard
setback, this shallow lot depth adds to the difficulty of
siting a home on the property.
