' <br /> 10. The rear yard setback variance for Parcel B is reasonable as it was <br /> necessary to push the home out of the bluff setback area, and there is a � <br /> need for adequate off street parking in front of the garage. Additionally, <br /> the 3ra stall of the garage is reasonable as there is a iieed for additional <br /> storage within the garage. <br /> 11. Due to its steep slope the shared driveway should be heated in the winter <br /> months to allow for a safer entra.nce into the property. The developer has <br /> agreed to this being a requirement of the development approval. <br /> � 12.
