CASE # '2. REQUEST FOR A VARIANCE TO CONSTRUCT AN ACCESSORY STRUCTURE NEARER THE FRONT PROPERTY LINE THAN THE PRINCIPAL STRUCTURE; CASE OF STEVEN PFEIFFER By: Zoning Administrator Sylvia Frolik Background: Steven Pfeiffer resides at 17758 Tonto Street N.W. The home is situated on a very uniquely shaped lot. The lot wraps around a comer so that the front property line is an inverted comer which results in two front property lines. Steven Pfeiffer is proposing to construct an accessory structure that will have to be located nearer the front property line than the principal structure because of the angle of the lot configuration at that point and the sharp decline in topograph in the side and rear yard. The following items are enclosed for your information: a) Site location map b) Site plan c) Proposed findings of fact d) Proposed variance Observations: Because of the unusual lot configuration, Staff has been attempting to verify Mr. Pfeiffer's measurements. The distances quoted in this case are estimates and Staff will have more information available at the meeting. The total area of the existing garage and the proposed accessory garage (1,946 square feet) are well within City Code limits for a 3.3 acre parcel (2,464 square feet). The proposed construction is pole type with steel panel walls color matched to the home, which is permissible on a 3 acre lot. The City has granted similar variances in the past. Recommendation: City Staff recommends approval of the variance. Board Action: Motion to: Adopt Resolution ~93-06- adopting Findings of Fact # relating to Steven Pfeiffer's request for a variance to construct an accessory structure nearer the front property line than the principal structure at 17758 Tonto Street N.W. Motion to: , Adopt Resolution #93-06- approving the issuance of a variance to Steven Pfefffer at 17758 Tonto Street N.W. and declaring terms of same.
