structure.
The Planning Commission had concerns on the large deviation from the
code and precedence setting.
Motion was made by Foster to deny the 20 ft. front yard and 5 ft. side
yard variance as requested because the variance would be too extreme and
precedent setting but to approve the 11 ft, front yard variance to allow
a 14 ft. front garage and approve the 5 ft. side yard variance for Lot 1
First Addition to Lakeside Manor. Also the 11 ft, variance would not be
that detrimental to the property value of the neighborhood. Granting
is due to a lack of consideration and the garage is built into the
hillside and will not be detrimental to any use and only the roof of the
garage will be exposed and will not cause any detriment, Seconded by
Felix. Upon a vote taken, the motion duly passed.
