Beverly Ann Barnes
27 Willow Oak Court
Lot 39, Block 7, Parkway Place
Addition Phase II
A variance is requested from the
building line provisions of
Section 31-12 to permit a room
addition which crosses a rear
platted building line.
The applicant's justification is
presented in an attached letter.
Single Family Residential
Single Family Residential
The R-2 zoned property at 27 Willow Oak Court is
occupied by a one-story frame single family residence.
There is an existing deck on the rear of the structure,
which is approximately four (4) feet above grade. The
lot has 25 foot platted building lines along the front
and rear property lines. Parkside Drive runs along the
lot's rear (north) property line.
The applicant proposes to remove the existing deck from
the rear of the building and construct a 12 foot by 22
foot sunroom addition. The proposed addition will
encroach slightly over the rear platted building line.
December 17, 2001
Item No.: 7
The addition will encroach 0.7 foot over the platted
building line at the addition's northwest corner, and
2.3 feet at the northeast corner. Section 31-12(c) of
the City's Subdivision Ordinance requires that
variances for encroachments over platted building
setback lines be reviewed and approved by the Board of
Adjustment.
Staff is supportive of the requested variance. The
proposed rear yard setback, being less than a 10%
encroachment, could have been signed off on
administratively by staff, if a platted building line
were not involved. The single family residence has a
rear yard relationship with a street right-of-way =
(Parkside Drive), and therefore, staff does not believe
that the requested variance will have a negative effect
on the adjacent properties or the general area.
If the Board approves the building
applicant will have to complete a
reflecting the change in the rear
proposed addition. The applicant
filing procedure with the Circuit
determine if the replat requires
Assurance.
C. Staff Recommendation:
Staff recommends approval of the
building line variance subject to
lot replat reflecting the change
line as approved by the Board.
BOARD OF ADJUSTMENT:

one -lot replat
building line for the
should review the
Clerk's office to
a revised Bill of
