RE: Mr. & Mrs. Thomas K�leen's request to�ary from the development standards for the
Sugar Woods addition,Planned Residential Development.
As a representati�e of the Kileen's Im requestin�a variance for the driveway.
Attached is the proposed site/grading plan which illustrates the following reasons for this request:
1. The curving of the drive as shown will preserve more of the mature trees that will
need to be removed if the drive were to conform with the required 30'-0" side
yard setback.
2. The existing grade of the site at the dri�e location is nearly 17% which is too
steep for a dri�eway. By lengthening the drive we were able to decrease the grade
to 13 °lo at the steepest point and provide a relatively flat parking area at the garage
and waiting area at the street.
3. The residence has been located on the site to minimize the impact on both the
existing neighbor to the east(the Simonds ) and the future neighbor to the west.
Also attached is a letter from the Simonds,the property owner to the immediate east,wham this
�ariance will be impacting. This letter states that they have re�iewed the proposed site plan and
approve of this request.
The Kileens and myself will be attending the planning commission meeting on Monday
April 19, 1993. If you hade any questions or comments prior to that meeting please call me at
636-3027. Thank you far your consideration.
Sincerely,
