This garage was recently reconstructed without the required building pennits. Sla/f Recommendation: Staff recommends that the Commission discuss whether the improvements made to the detached garage qualify as maintenance or a rebuild. Should the Commission determine the improvements were merely maintenance, then staff would recommend approval of the side yard setback variance request. If the Planning Commission determines that the garage was rebuilt, staff would recommend denial of the side setback variance request and the garage must be moved to meet a 10 ’ setback and undergo a hardcover variance review.__________________________________________ Pertinent Zoning Ordinance Sections Sec. 78-1405.
