Summary Explanation and Background
SUMMARY EXPLANATION AND BACKGROUND:
PROJECT DESCRIPTION / BACKGROUND:
Alan Southerland, owner, has submitted three residential zoning variance requests to build a driveway and patio at the property located at 1100 NW 185 Terrace. The property is part of the Chapel Trail Planned Unit Development (PUD) and follows the guidelines for single-family conventional (SF-3A) The PUD guidelines do not address front lot coverage and driveway width; therefore, the provisions of the City’s Land Development Code (LDC) are applicable.
On August 10, 2023, the owner submitted a building permit application (No. RX23-10352) to build a driveway and patio at the property. The proposed driveway and patio exceed the limitations of the City’s LDC, so the permit cannot be issued.
The applicant is requesting the following:
· ZV(R)2024-0015: to allow 47% front lot coverage (total) instead of the allowed 35% front lot coverage (total) for a proposed driveway in typical single-family residential lot.
· ZV(R)2024-0016: to allow 42% of the lot’s width instead of the allowed 40% of the lot’s width for a proposed driveway in a typical single-family residential lot.
· ZV(R)2024-0017: to allow one-foot (1’) side setback along a segment of the northern property line instead of the required five-foot (5’) side setback for a proposed nine-foot by eight-foot (8’ x 9’) patio.
The applicant is aware that Board consideration of a residential variance request does not preclude the property owner from obtaining all necessary development related approvals or permits.
The subject property is in the Chapel Trail neighborhood. The owner has provided a copy of the Homeowners Association (HOA) Letter, dated July 10, 2023.
