PLANNING REPORT
DATE: October 12, 1978
TO: City Manager, Don Ashworth
FROM: Assistant City Planner, Bob Waibel
SUBJ: Front Yard/Side Yard Setback Variance Request, 6598 Huron
Ave.
APPLICANT: Gordon Tock
PLANNING CASE: P-586
Petition
Mr. Tock is requesting to construct a garage 7 feet from the north
side property line of the subject property. The proposed depth of
the garage to be constructed is 22 feet. This request compounded
with the fact that Mr. Tock lives on a parcel of land with three
frontages and has a width of 40 feet necessitates a three foot
variance to side yard setback requirements of 10 feet and 19 foot
front yard variance to the setback from the right of way of West 66th
Street.
Background
1. As shown in enclosure 1, the subject property is located at the
intersection of West 66th Street and Huron in the Carver Beach neighbor-
hood.
2. Existing Zoning: The subject property is presently zoned R-1,
single family residence district.
3. Utilites: Municipal water and sanitary sewer are presently
available to the subject property and the subject parcel has been
assessed one sewer and water unit as per public improvement project 75-2.
Planner's Comments
1. The subject property is non -conforming in that it contains approxi-
mately 8,000 square feet whereas ordinance 47 requires 15,000 square
feet for parcels in a R-1 district.
Mr. Don Ashworth -2- October 12, 1,978
2. As previously mentioned this property has unique difficulty in
that it has three frontages, however, it is my opinion that Iroquois
would prove to be of marginal benefit improved to city street standards
due to the fact that the only egress from the general area would
be Devil's Slide with the exception of Huron which has been designated
as trailway in the Carver Beach Plan.
3. The Board of Adjustments and Appeals duly held a public hearing
on October 3, 1978, to obtain neighborhood sentiment to the subject
proposal. The Board of Adjustments and Appeals subsequently voted
to recommend that the city council grant a 7 foot side yard variance
and a 15 foot front yard variance, which would essentially place the
north side of the garage three feet from the north property line which
is the same distance of the existing house from the north property
line. The Board of Adjustments and Appeals based their recommendation
upon the applicant's inability to obtain surrounding lands to carry
-out the proposed construction, the applicant's desire to have the
garage as close to the house as possible, and that the construction
of a double detached garage is a common practice within an R-1,single
family residence district.
Planner's Recommendation
In concurrence with the Board of Adjustments and Appeals, I recommend
the city council approve a 7 foot side yard variance and a 15 foot
front yard setback variance due to the above stated reasons, and
additionally, that it will have a less visually encroaching effect
upon the frontage of West 66th Street.
