Body

 

DESCRIPTION/BACKGROUND:

This is a variance request filed by the applicant Joseph Metivier, from the Land Development Code (LDC) Section 4.2.10 E, attached structures to the home are required to meet the Single-Family Residential (SFR) setbacks. The Land Development Code states that in R-1 zoning, the SFR setbacks are 25’ from the front property line, 25’ from the rear property line, and 8’ from both side property lines. The applicant is requesting to have a front setback reduction from the required 25’ to 10’ for an existing detached pole barn-style carport. The carport was built without a permit. At the request of the board the owners are proposing to add a walkway to make it an attached carport and will need a setback reduction from 25’ to 10’.
