The existing garage is located only 18* from Casco Point Road and frees the road creating a potentially hazardous situation with vehicles backing out to the road w ithout tlie ability to view on coming vehicles and pedestrians. Several obstacles including a neighKning fence, tree and telephone pole block much of the view to the street. The attached garage allow s the \ chicles to back out into the yard and approach the sUeet at an angle improving views to the street as well as allowing vehicles traveling on Casco Point Road to more easily siew entering vehicles from tlic applicant’s property. In the applicant’s letter of request they have stated there have been dozens of brake screeching ne.u misses while backing out. The concern is the loeation of the proposed attached garage that would be located only 2.85* from the side lot line where a 10* setback is required. Construction of the house w^s before the adoption of the current zoning standards. The site plan show^ the location of the house in relation to the property line. The garage would not encroach any closer to the side property' line than the house. •2644 G«0 2617 CaKO Poini Roja Variance* •• Public Hewing Pi«<2ef) 1
