Proposed additional impervious surface 604 sauare feet Pervious surface after proposed improvements 13,640 square feet Percent of pervious surface retained (13,640 SF: 14,244 SF x 100): 96 % We understand that the front and side yard setbacks are affected by the proposed project. We do not believe that other setback or variance conditions are affected by the proposed proj ect. The proposed project will be constructed in the same materials as the e�sting house. The front of the proposed addition will be faced with brick and wood siding. The north gable will be faced in stucco. The entire roof will receive new asphalt shingles. The final building mass will be consistent with that on the contiguous properties. Essentially, the basic style of the existing rambler will be retained and enhanced by the proposed proj ect. The proposed building and driveway addition does not place more vehicles adjacent to living quarter first floor bedrooms of our neighbors. (All of our current vehicles will be parked under one roof whereas one of our vehicles is parked in the driveway at present). The drainage and roof gutters of the proposed project will guide water away from the proposed structure and adj acent structures. The roof of the proposed addition is properly proportioned. It will integrate e�tremely well with the roof of the e�sting house. Setback Considerations The proposed addition will not reduce the side yard setback by more than 50% or be closer than seven feet (7'- 0") to the front properiy line. Our house is closer than 30 feet to the front properiy line. We presume that the front yard setback requirements were different when our house was built than they are today. Further, we believe that our neighbor's house and garage are located much closer to the property lines than is allowed by current City Code. We believe that the proposed addition will not materially affect the "visual pro�mity" of our house relative to the curb line of the cul-de-sac. Our proposed driveway expansion will be no closer than 5 feet to the northeast property line. Submittal Requirements a. Application fee of $200 and fee for mailing labels of $45: Enclosed.
