Gaffron, Asst Planning & Zoning Administrator <br />DATE: May 17, 1988 <br />SUBJECT: 11262 Curtis Hagfors, 1412 Baldur Park Road- <br />- Request for Amendments to r.evious Variance Approval <br />PERTINENT FACTS <br />Approved 5-9-88 <br />Revised Request <br />Garage Street Setback <br />17' (Var.-131) <br />21' <br />(Var.-91) <br />Driveway Hardcover <br />432 s.f. <br />528 <br />s.f. <br />Sidewalk Hardcover <br />82 s.f. <br />111 <br />s.f. <br />House North Side Setback <br />10, <br />9.6' <br />Total 75-250' Hardcover <br />2572 a.f.(35.31) <br />2697 <br />s.f.(37.01) <br />DISCUSSION <br />At Council's May 9th meeting, variances were approved for the above <br />referenced application. After that meeting, the applicant looked more <br />closely at his property and decided to request some revisions to his <br />proposal, as follows: <br />1. Instead of a 17' street setback, he would set the garage back even <br />further to 211, to be in line with neighboring garages and provide <br />him with a bit more room to park his car in front of the garage. <br />2. As a result of that greater driveway setback, his additional <br />driveway hardcover is 96 s.f. <br />3. Instead of a 2' sidewalk width as was approved, he is requesting <br />a 3' width. That sidewalk will be a little shorter with the revised <br />location, but will be an additional 29 s.f. of hardcover. <br />4. Applicant notes in his letter of request that further <br />investigation of his costs of moving the house will dictate that it be <br />merely lifted and set down on the new foundation, not moved in the 0- <br />75' setback zone. However, he is finding that due to the existing <br />floor joist layout and the necessary orientation of the beams to ri �e <br />the house, it will be difficult if not impossible to slide the ' e <br />sideways. He is requesting to keep the existing 9.6' setback ra....er <br />than move the house 6 inches to meet the required 10' side setback. <br />This proposal will result in hardcover increase 125 s.f. over that <br />which was approved May 9, for a final total of 37.01 rather than 35.3% <br />previously approved. <br />!!A// RNCOINNNai1TION <br />Council has 3 op�-ions: <br />1. Send the revised application back to the Planning Commission <br />for additional review. <br />2. Deny the additional variances requested. <br />3. Approve the additional variances requested. <br />If Council wishes to approve this request, the previous resolution can <br />bye revised to reflect the changes. <br />
