Mabusth, Building & Zoning Administrator Date:May 5, 1993 Subject:#1812 Thomas Patrick Goodyear, 712 Tonkawa Road Variances - Resolution Brief Reriew of AppUcatioD and Planning Commission Recommendation The applicant proposes a second stoiy addition over existing single story structure within a 2' + expansion of building envelope along the right side lot line. The right side expansion of the footprint has been aligned with a new fireplace chimney. Refer to Exhibits F-1,1 and J. A 12* X 34.3’ deck is proposed at the second story level to be placed over an existing patio. The 7* X 10* shed at the left side lot line shall be removed. The existing garage located within the County right-of-way is non-conforming and subject to all pertinent ordinances. The applicant also seeks approval for structural alterations to a boathouse located within the 0-75* setback. Applicant claims structure is in sound condition. Staff has confirmed that structure is in a serious state of disrepair and has no foundation. The installation of a second story over the existing footprint requires side setback variance to the left side lot line. The expansion of the footprint along the right side lot lirie will requite side setback variance of 1*. The staircase extending from the upper deck is considered an encroachment and must meet the required 10* side setback. The chinny originally thought to be a non-encroachment at 2* is only considered a non-encroachment if maintained at a 1 Vi’ width, applicant has been advised and sees no problem meeting the 1*A* width. The Planning Commission raised the concern that emergency vehicles could not access the property since the garage and the privacy fencing blocked all access from the ro^. Applicant concurred that he would be willing to remove the privacy fence which would provide a 10* access corridor to the property. Planning Commission Ri indation The Planning Commission approved the second story addition as long as no variances were required along the right side. The chimney and access stairs from deck would have to meet the required setback at the right side lot line. Planning Commission conditioned approval on an access corridor being provided on at least one side of the structure since the left side yard setback at 4’ remains. Approval was conditioned on the removal of the boathouse. The following inventory facts have been adjusted per the Planning Commission’s recommendation.
