#05-3102 920 Brown Rd. S. <br />July 6, 2006 <br />Page2 <br />The original buyer for the property went away, and a new buyer was eventually found. <br />Applicant had new plans drawn up suiting the new buyer's wishes; however, the extent and <br />location of encroachments of the side setback on both sides does not match those upon which the <br />variances were accepted. The newly submitted plans, while still proposing a house with 20' side <br />setbacks, exhibit a significantly greater area of encroachment of the side setback than the house <br />plan that was approved, and a different location for those encroachments. It is staff's conclusion <br />that the degree of additional encroachment proposed in 2006 is not in conformity with City <br />codes, and therefore is subject to further review. <br />Because the side setback variance was discussed at some length at the two Planning Commission <br />meetings in 2005, and because comments in the minutes suggest that minimization of the degree <br />of encroachment was key to the side setback approvals, staff requested Council's review of the <br />current proposal. Council referred the matter back to Planning Commission for review and <br />recommendation. <br />The two abutting neighbors have submitted letters indicating their approval of the current plans. <br />UPDATED LOT ANALYSIS WORKSHEET <br />Lot Area/Width: RR-1B Lot Area Lot Width <br />Required 87,120 s.f.
