The right-of-way is considered a side street for the purpose of measuring setbacks and a 35-foot setback is required. The neighboring property on the west side of the right-of-way is within the one-half acre zone and is subject to a 15-foot setback. The applicant is requesting a setback variance to permit a 15-foot setback where a 35-foot setback is required in conjunction with the construction of a new residence. The lot line rearrangement approval granted to this property and the property to the east was conditioned upon the property owner providing an easement to the property to the east. The driveway easement and lot line rearrangement resolution have been recorded. On September 15, the Planning Commission voted 7-0 to recommend approval of the requested setback variance. During the public hearing there was a question raised regarding the location of trees located along the common lot line. The applicant has provided a survey showing the trees are located on their property and not within the right-of-way. The trees are also located outside of the 0-75 foot zone.
