4. APPEAL 2763
Address 1101 N. College Avenue
Petitioner Vanessa Houk
Zoning District CG
Justification See petitioner's letter
Project Description Request for Variance to Section 3.8.7(G)(1) – Sign Setback
Section 3.8.7(G)(1) – The code requires that the proposed 53 square feet per side, 10 feet tall
monument sign be setback 10 feet from the College Avenue right-of-way line. The variance requested
will reduce the required sign setback from 10 feet to 0 feet in order to allow the proposed sign to be
located in the same location as the previously existing sign (which received a similar variance in 2011
due to the relocation of the right-of-way line associated with the North College Improvements Project).
The new sign is 10 square feet per side smaller than the previously existing sign.
5. APPEAL 2764
Address 209 Third Street
Petitioner Doug Bennett
Owners Charles and Michelle Klamm
Zoning District RL
Justification See petitioner's letter
Project Description Request for Variance to Section 4.4(D)(2)(b) - front setback
The variance will reduce the required minimum front yard setback from 20 feet to 14 feet in order to
allow the existing single family dwelling to be removed and a new single family dwelling constructed in
its place. The existing house is at an approximate 14 foot setback from the front lot line.

6. APPEAL 2765
Address 617 Cherry Street
Petitioner Amie Lopez
Zoning District NCM
Justification See petitioner's letter
Project Description Request for Variance to Section 4.8(E)(3) - rear setback
The variance would reduce the required minimum rear yard setback along the south lot line from
15 feet to 5 feet in order to allow for a new 20 feet x 20 feet one-story detached garage to be
constructed.
7. APPEAL 2766
Address 331 Smith Street
Petitioner Jeff Schneider
Owner Christopher and Aleta Weller
Zoning District NCM
Justification See petitioner's letter
Project Description Request for Variance to Sections 4.8(D)(3) and 4.8(E)(4)– rear floor area ratio
and side setback
The variance requested will increase the allowed floor area ratio in the rear 50% of the lot from .33 to
.532 (an increase from 783.5 square feet allowed to 1264 square feet proposed) and will reduce the
required minimum street side setback along Magnolia Street from 15 feet to 13.5 feet.
The variance is requested in order to allow a 669 square feet second floor addition (of which 310
square feet is in the rear 50% of this shallow lot). While a lot area to floor area ratio variance is being
requested for the rear 50% of the lot, the required overall lot area to floor area ratio for the entire lot is
being met. The new second floor will be setback 1 foot further from the street side lot line than the
setback of the existing house.
