Backl!round The applicants are proposing to construct a 96 square foot, 8'x12', sunroom on the front side of the existing dwelling facing Lake Johanna Boulevard. The proposed addition would be in line with northern side ofthe existing dwelling; however, the existing structure encroaches approximately 3.2 feet into the northern side yard setback. An existing concrete patio would be removed and the sunroom would be built in the same location, which would result in no net increase in impervious surface for the property. Although the picture submitted by the applicant shows a white metal roof on the sunroom, the applicants have stated that the sunroom roof will be shingled to match the existing roof on the dwelling. The applicant has submitted a letter outlining the reasons for the request, a response to the variance evaluation criteria, and an example picture of how the addition will look with the existing dwelling (Attachment 3B-l of the Planning Commission report). A full survey ofthe property has also been submitted (Attachment 3B-3 of the Planning Commission report). A previous planning case, 01-021, was approved in 2001 for a variance to reconstruct a one car garage into a two garage within the front yard setback. The attached survey was originally prepared for the garage variance. \\Metro-inet.uslardenhillslPlanning\Planning Cases\2007\07-008 Teeling Variance (PC APPROVAL)\043007 - CC Report - Teeling Variance. doc Page 1 00
