<br />VIII-B-3 <br /> <br />Memo <br /> <br />To: <br /> <br />Mayor Hicks and City Council Members <br /> <br />From: <br /> <br />Kari Barker, Associate Planner <br /> <br />Date: <br /> <br />September 4, 2007 <br /> <br />Subject: <br /> <br />Rick and Sandy Squires - Variance #2007-39 - Expand a legally <br />nonconforming accessory structure at 1207 Ramsey Street <br /> <br />REQUEST <br /> <br />Rick and Sandy Squires seek a variance to add eight feet to an existing detached garage. <br /> <br />A variance is required because the garage addition would expand a legally nonconforming <br />accessory structure. In the R-2 district, an accessory structure such as a garage shall be <br />no closer than five feet to the rear or adjacent interior side lot line. The existing garage at <br />1207 Ramsey Street does not meet either the rear or adjacent interior side lot setbacks. <br /> <br />A secondary issue is that the garage extends approximately 3.15 feet onto the property at <br />1205 Ramsey Street. <br /> <br />RECOMMENDATION <br />At the August 27,2007, Planning Commission meeting, Commissioners voted 6-0 to <br />recommend approval of the variance request. No members of the public spoke to the <br />issue during the public hearing. <br /> <br />ATTACHMENTS <br /> <br />. Resolution <br />· Application <br />· Location Map <br />.
