To whom it may concern,
Please find attached my completed application for a residential zoning variance for 912 N
Oak St., Little Rock, AR. The lot is wedge shaped, and currently has a detached garage
behind the residence. This structure is located on the property line without a setback as the
lot narrows rapidly behind the residence. Recently, a large tree fell from a neighboring lot
severely damaging the existing structure and necessitating its replacement.
This request for a zoning variance is to completely rebuild an improved version of the
structure. The rebuilt structure will sit in roughly- the same footprint as the eKistiag structure
with a finished interior and a second floor. As such, I am requesting a variance for the side -
yard setback requirement found in Municipal Code section 36-255(d)(2) for a lot zoned R-
3.
As described in the attached plans, the new structure will only be a few feet wider and taller
than the existing structure and is designed to blend into the neighborhood and match the
main house. The incremental impact of the rebuilding project will be small. Due to the
shape of the lot and the location of the residence on the lot, the setback requirements are
impractical and inconsistent with the current longstanding use, as the lot narrows rapidly
behind the residence.
If you have any questions please contact me at 5151912 238ib or emahony34� rnail.com.
Alternatively, please contact my agent Christopher East with Cromwell Architects and
Engineers at 501-372-2900 or ceast@cromwell.com.
Sincerely.
