We have been informed that the existing driveway does not meet <br />a <br />city coldes for the following reasons, <br />,1. The entrance '^is, not, 30 feet from the Sneng Avenue right-of-way. <br />a <br />2. The, existing driveway width is greater than the 26 feet allowed by <br />city code, for properties zoned R-1. <br />0 -1 districts to be a max:iMum, of 26 feet, <br />The city coide allows driveways in R <br />Due to the entranclie orientation and traffic volumes, a 26-foot-wide entrance <br />,does not, offer adequate, capacity as an entrance to our school. Therefore, w <br />arlie, requesting a variance from the city code to allow a 36-foot-wide dri'vewa <br />as would be allowed for a typical commercial property.
