Section 10.28, Subdivision 5 (B) <br />To permit a 40.9' side yard adjacent street setback for the residential addition. The existing <br />house is set back 46.3 ’ from the property line. The required setback is 50’. <br />Application Summary: <br />The applicants have requested a variance to permit construction of an addition to the existing garage, <br />close off the existing driveway entrance on Willow Drive South with a berm and move the driveway <br />entrance to Shevlin Drive. The addition to the garage is 8’ X 24.4 ’. A variance is required to permit <br />the addition to encroach 9.1" into the 50’ side yard setback requirement. The garage currently <br />encroaches 3.7’ into the side yard setback. <br />The applicant is proposing to add onto the existing garage rather than move it to the other side of the <br />residence for a numter of reasons. The determinants in placement of the addition to the garage were; <br />the flow of the house, location of the septic system and location of the well. The garage is currently <br />on the west side of the residence. On the opposite side (east) is where the bedrooms are located. <br />The well is located on the north side of the residence behind the garage making it difficult to add <br />space directly behind the garage. The septic system is located directly east of the residence. (See <br />Exhibit D). The septic system is non-compliant and needs to be repaired by 2007. At that time the <br />applicant will need to hook up to sewer which was recently put in the neighbor!] <br />H02*2773 Kiut/Mary Rakoi <br />2I7S Shevlin Drive <br />Apnl 11,2002 <br />Page I of2
