• -i <br />staff Recommendation <br />Staff has recommended the applicants reduce the mass of the proposed building to not encroach into <br />the side yard setbacks. The concern is the existing building is within 4* of the side property line. A <br />building wall of 30* would be located only 4* from the property line, where a one story storage <br />building is located. Other than building height, at issue is the fact that the use of a house is different <br />ttmn that of a building used for storage (Activity, mass, windows, etc.) <br />Secondly, the City looks at what is best for the long term plan for the City. When ordinances were <br />adopted for structural lot coverage the City adopted this to limit the amount of development in <br />neighborhoods, and create space between buildings. Additional structure also contributes towards <br />additional hardcover which can negatively impact water quality by not allowing storm water to run <br />across natural ground surface. The concept is to allow storm water to be slowed and to infiluate into <br />the ground. <br />Staff can support the variances to permit lot area and lot width variances, as well as rear setback and <br />hardcover variances for the 0-75* setback for the driveway and to permit over 25% hardcover in the <br />75-250* setback to allow a reasonable sized house. If a 2 '/t story house is permitted we do <br />recommend the new house meet a minimum of a 10* side setback. <br />Planniny Cammisilon Options for Action <br />1. Approve <br />2. Denial <br />3.
