Rita Johnson
11908 Shady Ridge Drive
Lot 107, Sandpiper Creek
R-2
A variance is requested from the
area regulations of Section 36-254
to permit construction of a new
house with a reduced rear yard
setback.
The unusal shape of this lot,
combined with the required 25 foot
front and rear setbacks, greatly
reduces the buildable area.
Vacant lot
Single Family home
The applicant proposes to construct a new single family
residence on the vacant, R-2 zoned lot located at 11908
Shady Ridge Drive. One corner at the rear of the house
extends 5.8 feet into the required 25 foot rear yard
setback.
Staff believes the variance request to be reasonable. The
lot is unusually shaped, being 145.51 feet deep on one side
and only 84.58 feet deep on the other. Combined with the
required 25 foot front and rear yard setbacks, the shallow
depth on the one side of the lot limits the buildable area
available. The encroachment involves only a small portion
of one corner of the residence. This point intrusion should
have no effect on adjacent properties.
