...;. .. '-' - - -. ~ I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I ~ 2.0 Notes on hackground 2.2 We wish to replace the 12' x 16' detached accessory structure with an addItion to the existing stngle famfly dwell1ng that will provtde an .trnproved ~tn}(',tl1 re for year round use as an office. as well as improving the ,area to the west sIde of the house With a solanum. The request does not increase thc impeIV10us sllrfr~ coverage. 2.4 The new ;1ocfJrton ooe~ not n~~d to include an extra bedroom In additln to the office which CGn be converted as the need arises. The architect suggested this as part of an addition made simple from a construction viewpoint. However, this was not part of thc original request. Without the replacement of the accessory buildIng we need to reconsider the best way of improving this space to get more use out of it - this space was one of the reasons we purchased the house 1n the first place. New drawings nccd to be submitted to reflect the or1g1nal request properly. 2.5 The Impcrv1.ous surface coverage would not be altered by the request for a variance. The exlstng accessory building and concrete to the west side of the housc already' cover more area than we propose for the. how,>e addItion, 3.2 See comment~ under 2.5, The proposal would not exceed existing impervious surface coverage. This also applies to 3.5. 3.6 We do not know what the general purpose and Ultent 1s of the City'S Comprehensive Plan and Title 10 of the City Code (zoning) means but as per discussions with City Planner Kim Lee, and Chief Code Enforcement qfficer Gordon Bcscth. it was communicated that replacement of the e.xJsttng accessory strllr.tLlfc with a permanent addition would be an Improvement over the present sit uatin and would therefore likely be approved. This Is the variance we arc requesting. ,. ~.o Could sompone please explain how the proposed variance (1f modificd as per original request) would adversely affect the publIc health. safety or general welfare? Lea\1ng the ex1sttng structure in place presumably doesn't do this and addiding a solarium presumably doesn't do this? 4.0 Please dela}' recommendations and review until a revised set of drawings have been prepared.
