Written description of variance request:
We are requesting a variance for building above a current garage. This
is the front of the building and does not meet the current set -back
requirements. We are currently at 38 feet plus for the existing
structure. We will not be building closer to the road or the front set-
back requirement. We are building upon the existing garage framing
and going up. In this area we will be creating more living space without
adding to the home's footprint.
We are supplying you with detailed drawing of the project and a survey
showing existing conditions and proposed.
Thank you for your consideration,

RE: 1231 Bluff Creek Drive Variance
Written justification in pursuant to section 20 -58:
To whom it may concern
1231 Bluff Creek Drive was built prior to the current ordinance. We are not asking to go beyond the
buildings original perimeter, but are simply going up within the existing structure. The properties to the
north seem to be consistent and also do not meet the current ordinance. The existing structure is
located 38 feet back from the front property line and this is where we would adding up only, meaning
that we are adding a 2" floor above garage and will not be building closer to the road in what is
considered to be the front yard set -back.
b. Generally the set -back requirement is not a problem for most large lot zoned areas. In this case the
lot is .7 acres, which is the smallest lot in the area and was built pre set -back requirement..
c. The purpose of this variance application is to create more living space for the Good Family.
d. The hardship was created because it pre dates the set -back requirements, this building was built
before set backs were required. We are not asking to add on to the building perimeter, we are going up
and not past the buildings current foot print.
e. The building addition meets all other requirements set forth by the city.
f. My opinion is that the proposed addition will have a positive effect on the surrounding properties and
will not be injurious in any way.
There are no structures located within a couple hundred feet of the proposed addition. In no way will
the addition change the supply of light, air or add to congestion. It does not appear that it would affect
public safety or fire safety as we are only going up with the addition. It should enhance rather than
diminish property value.
