Staff had recommended denial of the variance because it was felt that the side yard and front yard setbacks could be met if the garage was moved back and away from the side lot line. The applicant wished to have the garage con- nected to the home and therefore wanted it adjacent to the house which required it to be 28 feet from front lot line and 8 feet from the side lot line. The Board of Adjustments approved the ' variance and increased the side yard setback by one foot per- mitting the applicant to locate the garage 7 feet from the side yard lot line and 28 feet from the front yard lot line ( see ' Attachment #2) . The variance was approved with the following condition: That the garage walls shall be lined with sheetrock. ' The variance from May 20 , 1985 , was valid for one year. If the garage was not constructed within one year a new variance would have to be received for the construction of the garage. ANALYSIS ' The property is now under new ownership with the existing one car garage still located on the site. The new owner of the property is requesting the same variance which was approved May 20, 1985 , to construct a two car garage. Since the applicant is requesting ' the exact variance approved in 1985 , and conditions of the site have not changed, staff is recommending that the Board of Adjustments adopt the following motion: ' "The Board of Adjustments recommends approval of a 2 foot variance to the required 30 foot front yard setback and a 3 foot variance to the required 10 foot side yard setback for the loca- tion of a two car garage at 7725 Frontier Trail with the following condition: ' 1 . That the garage walls shall be lined with sheetrock. " ATTACHMENTS ' 1 . Site plan with proposed garage. 2 . Board of Adjustments & Appeals minutes dated May 20 , 1985 with ' variance report. 3 .

FRONT AND SIDE YARD VARIANCE REQUEST, 7725 FRONTIER TRAIL, ROBERT ' SCHOLER, APPLICANT Olsen gave a brief overview of the variance request. She stated ' the applicant is proposing to construct a 23 ' x 22 ' garage attached to their existing home (see site plan) . The garage will be 28 feet from the front yard lot line and 8 feet from the side yard lot line. Thus , two variances are required, a 2 foot '_ variance for the front yard setback of 30 feet and a 2 foot variance for the side yard setback of 10 feet. She stated that the existing home lies on the front lot line and is therefore a non-conforming use. The Zoning Ordinance states that non-conforming uses cannot be enlarged. There is an ' existing one car detached garage on the property (see photograph) . The applicant wishes to remove this garage and replace it with the larger attached garage. ' She stated that the applicant is requesting a 2 foot variance to the front yard setback. The applicant has stated that this request is due to the slight slope at the rear of the lot . Staff ' believes the 30 foot front yard setback can be met and should be enforced. ' Tom Rojina stated that they wanted it 28 feet from the front yard lot line so that it would connect with an existing rear access of their home. Johnson asked if they would be using sheetrock on the garage walls. Tom Rojina stated that they would. Geving moved, seconded by Watson , to grant a 3 foot side yard variance to allow the garage to be enlarged to a 24 foot width and to grant a 2 foot front yard variance. All voted in favor and the motion carried. a �{ r If‘ilit C ' J TY O F ( .C. DATE: U- 1 r , ~ C.C.

ANALYSIS The applicant is proposing to construct a 23 ' x 22 ' garage attached to their existing home (see site plan) . The garage will be 28 feet from the front yard lot line and 8 feet from the side yard lot line. Thus, two variances are required, a 2 foot variance for the front yard set- back of 30 feet and a 2 foot variance for the side yard setback of 10 feet. The existing home lies on the front lot line and is therefore a non- conforming use. The Zoning Ordinance states that non-conforming uses cannot be enlarged. There is an existing one car detached garage on the property (see photograph) . The applicant wishes to remove this garage and replace it with the larger attached garage. ' The applicant is requesting a 2 foot variance to the front yard setback. The applicant has stated that this request is due to the slight slope at the rear of the lot. Staff believes the 30 foot front yard setback can be met and should be enforced. Section 7 .05 (1) of the Zoning Ordinance states that adequate space shall be reserved on the site to allow for the construction of a two car garage. For the proposed two car garage to meet the side yard setbacks of 10 feet it would have to be 21 feet wide. It currently is proposed as 23 feet. The Board of Adjustments and Appeals shall not recommend and the Council shall not grant, a variance unless they find the following fact : 1. That there are special circumstances or conditions affecting the land, building or use referred to in the application for variance. 2 . That the granting of the variance is necessary for the preservation and enjoyment of substantial property rights. 3 . That the granting of the application will not be materially deteri- mental to the public welfare or injurious to property in the area adjacent to the property for which the variance is sought. 4. That the granting of the variance will be in keeping with the spirit and intent of this ordinance. The Board of Adjustment and Appeals in recommending and the City Council in granting a variance may impose conditions to insure compliance and to protect adjacent properties.
