Member Stone asked if, in the neighborhood, there are other percent coverage overages (over 30%). (Yes) Member Bakeman noted that there are no extensions in the neighborhood - it creates safety issues. She opposes the request for a front setback variance. Member Traynor explained that this front porch extension is most objectionable and unique in the neighborhood. Member Duncan asked what was the undue hardship (as per Section _ of the staff report). Member Stone noted essential character, reasonable use; plight is beyond property owner's control. She said it did not pass any of this; and she concurred with Member Bakeman. Motion: Member Bakeman moved, seconded by Member Peper, to recommend denial of the 8.5 foot front variance to Section 1004.02D5 of the City Code. Ayes: 6 Nays: 0 Motion carried. This item will be on the City Council Consent Agenda for the June 16, 2003 meeting. c.
