Such a plan has been submitted, along with a <br />layout of the existing house. <br />Note that the garage has been down-sized to 26*x26' instead <br />of 30'x30*. This reduces the required setback variance. Thai <br />proposal is for a 15.2* side setback where a 30* side setback <br />would normally be required. <br />At the June meeting, applicant provided a letter frosi tha <br />neighboring affected property owner, stating no objection to tha <br />earlier proposal. <br />Staff RecosBiendation - <br />A recommendation for approval could be supported by the <br />following findings: <br />1. Minimal visual impact on the neighborhood. <br />2. No additional run-off will be directed to the <br />neighboring property. <br />3. The affected neighbor has expressed he has no objection <br />to the proposal. <br />4. New garage will be located in location of existing <br />garage and driveway. <br />5. Othar locations for garage would conflict with well or <br />septic system, or would not be appropriate given traffic <br />pattern of rooms in house. <br />6. Applicant has revised proposal to reduce the size of the <br />garage to minimize the setback variance required.
