.18 feet off the required 15 feet to a distance of 14.82 feet for
the existing house at its most northerly corner to the side
property line.
Purpose:
To allow for the construction of a conforming two-story addition
and deck onto the northeast side of the house.
William Waldusky was in attendance for the meeting.
Mark Grimes gave a brief summary of the requests. The Board agreed that the side
yard setback was a very minor infraction. They also agreed that there must have
been some misunderstanding concerning the cantilevered roof into the front setback
when the house was constructed. The Board believes the City errored in reviewing
the plans or did not have plans that spelled out exactly what the builder was
proposing.
