General Business
(8.01) Variance to the Rear Yard Setback to allow a Porch Addition for Property located
at 5144 Black Oaks Court North (Rosalind and David Ward — 2017047)
Planning Manager Thomson reported on the variance application. She noted the lot is a pie
shaped which is more limited in expanding than a rectangular lot, and the options for expansion
are limited by the kitchen bump -out and current window locations on the house.
She and Community Development Director Juetten provided the following information in
response to questions from the Council:
• There was one complaint by a neighbor that opposed this request.
• The addition can't go on the north side of the house because of the layout in the inside.
• There are no stairs on the porch as part of this application. They could be added in the
future without Council approval as long as they do not encroach on the 25 -foot setback.
David Ward, applicant, commented there is a front setback on the north side of the home that
curves around, and they do not desire to have the porch there. They want to have it on the back
of their home because it will open up their kitchen and living space, and it is their only option.
Motion was made by Councilmember Carroll, and seconded by Councilmember Johnson, to
adopt a Resolution Approving a Variance to the Rear Yard Setback to Allow a Porch Addition to
the Home for Property located at 5144 Black Oak Court North (2017047 - Res2017-256). With
all members voting in favor but Davis, the motion carried.
