Page 1 of 3 8 City of Centerville Planning and Zoning Commission July 1, 2025 Public Comments The applicant, Charles Peterson, residing at 7240 Main Street, addressed the Commission to talk about his three variance requests. The requests are for: 1. The proximity of the accessory structure to be closer to the principal structure than what is allowed per city code. 2. The size allowed for an additional accessory structure exceeded, which exceeds the square footage allowed. 3. The location of the accessory structure Î in front of the principal structure instead of in the rear yard as required by city code. Discussion ensued about the accessory structure (attached vs unattached). If the garage were to be attached, then a variance would not be needed. There was also discussion about building/remodeling within the same footprint in the M-2 zoning district. The Commission also inquired about when the concrete for the driveway was poured.
