Narrative 1. Impact on traffic: None. No additional drivers. 2. Impact on parks, streets and other public facilities: None. The property remains status quo. 3.a. Compatibility ofthe site plan, etc.: I believe that this change (building a new garage ((in a new location)) and removing the old garage) will improve all the contiguous properties i.e. The property to the North will have there view to the south improved. Now they can't see Maple Lane myoid garage is in the way and the new garage will be constructed out of there line of site, there garage will be hiding my garage from there view. The property to the East will also have there view improved to the West, at the present time there view of Maple Lane to the West is partially blocked with myoid garage. They will be looking at the East side of the new garage which will be located approx. 50' from the Eastern property line (their home). The property to the North-East will also have their view to the South-West improved with the removal of the old garage. The new garage should not interfere with them at all, the closest building on there property will be approx. 150' away. 3.b. Internal traffic circulation will not be increased (I am not sure what is required here). 3 c . Landsc&ping: We are planning on adding a hedge across part of the front of the garage, this will "hide" that part of the drive that serves the Eastern half of the garage. 4. Impact of the use on the market value of contiilious properties: Increasing the value our property should have the same effect for the surrounding properties. 5 Impact on the general public health, safety and welfare: None. 6 Compatibility with the City's Comprehensive Plan: I have to imagine that the City would like to have everyone improve there property, this request is an improvement. Why we are reQ.uestin~ this garage: Our present garage is pushing 30 years old, its roof is sagging, the left front of the garage is damaged from being stuck with an automobile, the Western wall has a "bow" in it and we have run out of space. At the present time we have two vehicles inside and two vehicle that sit outside. The new garage will have the room to keep all vehicles under cover. Putting the vehicles under cover will give the neighborhood a "cleaner" look. We would also like to eliminate our shed and provide the needed room to put our "yard equipment" into the garage. We know that a 12x12 shed is permitted but at this time we would like to eliminate it and make the yard less cluttered. . Thank you.
