Glenn & Tanya Chang, owners, have submitted five zoning variance requests for the property located at 2336 NW 189 Avenue in Keystone Lake neighborhood. The property is part of the Big Sky Planned Unit Development (PUD) and follows PUD Zone SF-1 (single-family conventional) guidelines. The PUD does not address driveways, patios, or decks (PUD), Single Family-Residential Zoning District. Therefore, the provisions of the City’s Land Development Code (LDC) apply.

Mr. Chang is requesting variance consideration to retain the items existing at the property, all built without building permits:

· ZV(R) 2023-0056: to allow zero feet (0’) rear setback along a portion of the rear property line instead of the required five feet (5’) rear setback for an existing pool deck or patio.
· ZV(R) 2023-0057: to allow two feet (2’) side setback along a portion of the southern property line...
