Specifically, the variance would allow construction of a six foot high wood fence to be located between the front of the house and Taft Hill Road. It would be close to the house (within ten feet of the front wall of the home) and sixty-two and one half feet away from Taft Hill Road. Section 3.8.11(3)(a), by Larry G. and Sherry Pettigrew, Owner. 1497 South Taft Hill Road. 4. Appeal : 2298 The variance would allow a home occupation to be conducted in a detached building. Specifically, the variance would allow a woodworking business to be conducted in the existing detached building on the lot. The owner has been using the building for nine years for mainly personal use woodworking, and the intensity of the use will not really change. Section 3.8.3(1), by William Friehauf, Owner. 401 Bobolink Court. 5. Appeal : 2299 The variance would reduce the required front yard setback along Prospect Road from twenty feet to fifteen feet in order to allow a trellis cover over a passageway next to a new two car attached garage. Section 4.3.(D)(2)(b), by Bob Brandes, Owner. 1600 Sheely Drive. 6.

Specifically, the variance would allow construction of a six feet high wood fence to be located between the front of the house and Taft Hill Road. It would be close to the house (within ten feet of the front wall of the home) and sixty-two and one half feet away from Taft Hill Road. --- Petitioner's statement of hardship: This is a corner lot. While the legal front of the home faces Taft Hill, the "useable" front entrance faces Lake Street. The owner desires to construct a fence that will screen the noise from Taft Hill, so it needs to be constructed in front of the home. Since the home is setback about seventy-two feet from Taft, and the fence will be sixty-two and one half feet from Taft, the intent of the code will be met. --- Staff comments: None. vJ� � p� Appeal 2298: 401 Bobolink Court -- Petitioner: William Friehauf, Owner --- Zone: RL --- 3.8.3(1) --- The variance would allow a home occupation to be conducted in a detached building. Specifically, the variance would allow a woodworking business to be conducted in the existing detached building on the lot. The owner has been using the building for nine years for mainly personal use woodworking, and the intensity of the use will not really change. --- Petitioner's statement of hardship: The building has been on the lot for nine years. If it were attached to the house, then a variance would not be required. The building has been all set up and used for personal woodworking/hobby use, and it makes more sense to be able to continue using it rather than move the business activity to the attached garage. --- Staff comments: None. Appeal 2299: --- 1600 Sheely Drive --- Petitioner: Bob Brandes, Owner --- Zone: RL --- 4.3.(D)(2)(b) --- The variance would reduce the required front yard setback along Prospect Road from twenty feet to fifteen feet in order to allow a trellis cover over a passageway next to a new two car attached garage. Petitioner's statement of hardship: This is an odd-shaped comer lot, wherein the legal front ( yard is along Prospect Road, but the front of the home faces Sheely Drive. The area along Prospect functions more as a side yard, and the proposed fifteen feet setback from Prospect complies with the required minimum setback along the street side of a corner lot. -- Staff comments: This is a corner lot situation that the Board considers from time to time, wherein the front of the house faces the legal street side lot line. Appeal 2300: --- 314 Wayne Street (� r+L --- Petitioner: Gary.fix, Owner --- Zone: NCL — 4.6(E)(4) --- The variance would reduce the required side-yard setback from six feet to three feet six inches in order to allow a second story addition on to an existing garage for a personal-use art studio. — Petitioner's statement of hardship: The garage is existing and was built at the three feet six inches setback. There is a large pine to the north of the garage. The owner already has the windows and wants to have a southern exposure. There are not other structures in the neighbor's yard to the south. The lot is forty feet wide. --- Staff comments: None. Appeal 2301: — 636 Peterson Street — Petitioner: John Peek, Owner — Zone: NCM --- 4.7(E)(4) --- The variance would reduce the required sideyard (north)setback from ten feet to three feet in order to allow a second story addition. This zoning district requires a five feet setback with an additional one foot for every two feet of height over eighteen feet—the addition will be at twenty-eight feet high. G — Petitioner's statement of hardship: The existing house currently sits at a three feet setback on the north side. Their family requires additional room. The style of the home will maintain the architecutural style of the neighborhood. The home is seventy to eighty years old. -- Staff comments: None. Appeal 2302: --- 2621 Red Fox Court --- Petitioner: Wolfgang K. Wegner, Jr., Owner/Contractor — Zone: RF --- 4.2(E)(2)(d)and 4.3 (13)(2)(c) -- The variance would reduce the required rear yard (east)setback from fifteen feet to seven and one half feet in order to allow a house to be built on the lot. --- Petitioner's statement of hardship: The legal rear yard could be viewed as a side yard. Because this is in a cul-de-sac and unusually shaped the legal front yards, rear yards, and easements make it difficult to situate the house on the lot. The neighghborhood covenants require a minimum 2000 square feet home. --- Staff comments: None. �• 1 Appeal 2303: --- 2620 Red Fox Court --- Petitioner: Wolfgang K. Wegner, Jr., Owner/Contractor --- Zone: RF --- 4.2(E)(2)(d) and 4.3(D)(2)(c) -- The variance would reduce the required rear yard (east) setback from fifteen feet to seven and one half feet in order to accomodate a two story home. -- Petitioner's statement of hardship: The lot is unusually shaped, at the end of a cul-de-sac. What one would consider a side property line, is by definition the rear property line. Neighborhood covenants require a minimum 2000 square feet home. --- Staff comments: None. Other Business: -- Staff will present proposed "equal to or better than" code language to illustrate the the discussion from last month regarding hardship variances. 0 Zoning Board of Appeals Appeal 2297 - 1497 South Taft Hill Rd.
