City Planner Anderson indicated a variance takes at least 30 days to complete and costs $600. <br />He described the amount of staff time that was required to pull together the information <br />necessary for a variance request. <br />Commissioner VanScoy questioned if staff would like some latitude regarding setbacks in order <br />to make a decision on setbacks without requiring a variance. <br />City Planner Anderson believed this could put staff into a tough position and recommended that <br />if anything, the setbacks be amended within City Code to provide clear direction for staff. <br />Commissioner VanScoy suggested the setbacks remain as is for existing neighborhoods and that <br />the setbacks for new neighborhoods be reconsidered. He was also supportive of administrative <br />consideration being offered to staff for two side lots. <br />Commissioner Brauer commented on the variance approval process. He did not support all <br />existing corner lots having new setbacks. <br />City Planner Anderson appreciated the Commission's input. <br />6.
