(#13) #2236 WILLIAM H. BOCKMANN, 1090 LOMA LINDA AVENUE - VARIANCE - RESOLUTION NO. 3909 The applicant was present. Van Zomeren reported that the application is a request for side yard and hardcovM variances for removal of an existing one-car garage and to install a two-car garage. It was noted that the Council had not been provided with the survey for their review. The property is .215 acres in the 1 acre zoning district, it does not meet lot area or wdth. Van Zomeren indicated that the location of the well limits the location for the new garage. She reported that the Planning Commission recommended approval for a 2.6' side yard variance and an increase from 37.2% to 38.98% hardcover in the 75-250' setback where 25% is allowed. The Commission asked that a caveat be included putting the applicant on notice that no fuiure hardcover would be allowed. Mr. Bockmann said the garage would actually be 1' from the property line due to the well. Kelley noted that conceptually the garage is located in the roadway and needs to be moved. He understood the need for a 2 car garage and supported its placement due to the well location and approval by the neighboring properties. Goetten reported that it was not possible to make any detemnnations without having the survey available.
