<br />{f <br /> <br />~" <br /> <br />REQUEST FOR COUNCIL ACTION <br /> <br />DATE: 9-12-94 <br /> <br />ITEM NO.: B-3 <br /> <br />Manager Reviewed: <br /> <br />Agenda Section: <br /> <br />Department Approval: <br />~r/bytMI <br /> <br />Item Description: <br /> <br />Consent <br />Mark and J ermifer Schmaedeke request for a minor variance at <br />1915 Shryer Avenue. <br /> <br />Background: <br /> <br />1 , The property under consideration at 1915 Shryer Avenue is zoned R -1, single <br />family, and is in the area where the 1994 pavement management program is under <br />construction. City ordinances require that driveways be setback 5 feet ftom the <br />side lot line. <br /> <br />2. The Schmaedeke's currently have a one car attached garage. With the <br />construction underway and their driveway partially tom up, the Schmaedekets <br />would like to provide off-street parking for a second vehicle. In order to <br />accomplish this, they are requesting a 2-1/2 foot side yard setback variance for <br />their driveway. This would bring their driveway to within 2-1/2 feet of their <br />neighbors sideyard property line. <br /> <br />3. The Minor Variance Committee has reviewed this application and has <br />unanimously recommended approval of the 2-1/2 foot sideyard setback variance. <br />It was the Committee's belief that providing off-street parking was of benefit to <br />the applicants and to the community as well. This is consistent with previous <br />City actions regarding expansion of single car garages or providing additional <br />parking space on private property. <br /> <br />4. All affected adjacent property owners indicated their approval of the proposed <br />vanance. <br />
