SUBDIVISIONS
Item No. 4 - OTHER MATTERS
NAME: Turley Toombs
LOCATION #32 Dartmouth Drive
v
PROPOSAL:
File a subdivision replat with reduced building line that
will allow construction of a 2' wide by 12' long concrete
porch. This porch will replace a 12'x12' wooden deck now
existing. In the placement of the concrete porch an
intrusion of 11+ would occur within the 25' building line.
STAFF ANALYSIS AND RECOMMENDATION:
The Planninq staff views this request as one which should
have been administratively handled. However, the Permits
Division of the Community Services Department rejected the
plan and properly so. The proposal by this owner would
remove ten feet of a structure now violating the platted
building setback line. This deck was apparently added prior
to annexation and this ownership. It is neither attractive
nor safe in its present state. The building line movement
to accommodate this change would be minor; therefore, we set
aside our usual opposition to such activities and recommend
the approval of the request.
SUBDIVISION COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATION:
The Subdivision Committee recommends approval of the request
as filed. The plat to be filed with the staff will provide
for necessary movement of the building line to accommodate
the porch and necessary steps and/or overhang of roofline .
The Subdivision Committee recommendation was supported by a
unanimous vote.
PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION:
A brief discussion was held, followed by a motion to approve
the variance and replat as filed. The motion passed by a
vote of 7 ayes, 0 noes, 4 absent.
