A new, <br />larger stoop is also proposed. The proposed stoop is on the Briar Side of the home and is proposed to <br />be at the same setback as the existing stoop, approximately 22 feet from the front lot line where a 50- <br />foot setback is required. The proposed stoop will be approximately 3 feet wider on the Prospect <br />Avenue side than the existing stoop and will also widen to fill in the approximate 2-foot gap on the <br />south side of the stoop. The new stoop will be 4.97 feet from the side street where a 50-foot setback is <br />required for principal buildings. <br /> <br />Based on this lot’s substandard width, the setback flexibility [Cite: Sec. 78-420(b)(1)] applies to the <br />interior side yard setback (south lot line) for the detached garage. Applying the setback flexibility <br />reduces the setback for the garage to 10 feet (as opposed to the 15-foot side setback), 30-foot side <br />street setback, and 15-foot rear setback. The applicant proposes to place the 483 square foot (21’ x 23’) <br />garage 5 feet from the side, 5 feet from the rear, and 23 feet from the side street lot line, requiring <br />variances. The garage’s proposed proximity to the property lines and the home may trigger higher <br />8
