Can the building be relocated further north to decrease <br />the degree of variance needed? For instance, can it be ^gled to maintain at least a 1 O' setback <br />along the entire side street frontage, >^e still preserving the oak tree? Would a comMnation <br />of a smaller building and greater setback be more appropriate? <br />3.Will there be a driveway to serve this building? If so, a second curb cut would need to be <br />approved. <br />Staff Recommendation <br />Staff does not recommend approval as proposed due to the potential future uses of the right-of-way. <br />A 10' setback might be reasonable given the topography, but a grading plan showing how 3:1 or <br />flatter slopes can be maintained between the building and the original existing grade of the right-of- <br />way should be required, and that may suggest a somewhat greater setback is (qjpropriate. Preserving <br />the oak tree may have merit; preserving the lilacs should not be a justification for variance approval. <br />Options for Action <br />1. <br />2. <br />3. <br />4. <br />5. <br />Recommend approval as proposed. <br />Recommend approval with revisions or conditions, <br />Table for additional information (specify). <br />Recommend denial, stating reasons. <br />Other
