APPEAL # 2792
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
Address: 6515 Westchase Ct
Petitioner/Owner: Robert Smith
Zoning District: U-E
Code Section: 4.2(D)(2)(d)
Variance Request:
The variance would reduce the side setback from 20 feet to 10 feet along the west property line and from
20 feet to 14 feet along the east property line in order to construct a new single family residence.
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends approval of the variance requests to reduce both the west and the east side setbacks from
the required 20 ft. to 10 ft.
STAFF COMMENTS:
1. Background:
The Westchase PUD was developed and approved in the County and annexed into the City and put
in the Urban Estate (U-E) zoning district.
2. Applicant’s statement of justification: See petitioner’s letter.
3. Staff Conclusion and Findings:
Under Section 2.10.2(H), Staff recommends approval of the variance requests to reduce the side
setback, and finds that:
• The granting of the variance for the addition would not be detrimental to the public good, and
• A reduced setback on both sides will allow the house to meet the contextual front setback of
the cul-de-sac.
• Two of the other three houses on the cul-de-sac have side setbacks of 10 feet.
• Therefore, the variance request will diverge from the standard in a nominal, inconsequential
way when considered in the context of the neighborhood, and will continue to advance the
purpose of the Land Use Code as contained in Section 1.2.2.
4. Recommendation:
Staff recommends approval of Appeal #2792.

LOCATION:

Fort Collins, CO 80521
The purpose of this letter is to inform you of a request for a modification of the Zoning Code of the City
of Fort Collins.
The procedure for a person requesting a modification of the Zoning Code is to make application and
appear before the Zoning Board of Appeals. This Board has been established to hear cases, where:
(1) by reason of exceptional situations or circumstances, the strict application of the regulation would
result in peculiar and practical difficulties or exceptional undue hardship upon the owner of such property;
(2) the proposal will promote the general purpose of the standard for which the variance is requested
equally well or better than would a proposal which complies with the standard for which the variance is
requested; or (3) the proposal will not diverge from the standards of the Land Use Code except in
nominal, inconsequential way when considered in the context of the neighborhood, provided that the
granting of a variance would not result in a substantial detriment to the public good.
A variance of code sections:
has been requested by:
for described property:
Zoning District:
4.2(D)(2)(d)
Robert Smith
6515 Westchase Ct
U-E
The variance would reduce the side setback from 20 feet to 10 feet along the west property line and
from 20 feet to 14 feet along the east property line in order to construct a new single family residence.
This item will appear on the Zoning Board of Appeals agenda as Appeal Number: 2792
As an adjacent property owner, your input would be appropriate in the consideration of this variance
request.
The hearing on this appeal will be held at 9:00a.m. on Thursday, February 12, 2015 in the Council
Chambers at 300 LaPorte Ave. Those interested may appear at this meeting, or if unable to attend may
submit comments in writing. Meeting sites are generally accessible to handicapped persons. If you are
disabled and need assistance to participate, please call (970) 221-6760.
If you have any questions or comments, feel free to contact Noah Beals, Senior City Planner-Zoning at

APPEAL # 2793
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
Address: 363 Pascal Street
Petitioner/Owner: Andrew Rauch
Zoning District: C-C-N
Code Section: 3.5.2(E)(3)
Variance Request:
The variance would allow an alley accessed attached garage to continue to be built upon a foundation that was
installed 9 inches into the required 8 foot rear yard setback and 8 foot utility and access easement.
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends approval of the variance request to allow a 9 inch encroachment into the 8 foot required
rear yard setback with the condition that the utility and access easement is vacated for that portion of the
easement.
STAFF COMMENTS:
1. Background:
In November 2014 and January 2015 the Board reviewed two other requests for similar setback
variances in the Old Town North subdivision. However, in this case, the variance is requested by
the builder who poured the foundation.
2. Applicant’s statement of justification: See petitioner’s letter.
3. Staff Conclusion and Findings:
Under Section 2.10.2(H), staff recommends approval of the 9 inch encroachment into the 8 foot
required rear yard setback, with the condition that the utility and access easement is vacated for the
portion of the encroachment and finds the following:
• The variance request is not detrimental to the public good.
• The greatest point of the encroachment is 9 inches and does extend the entire length
of the building.
• 9 inches is 9% of the entire 8 foot setback.
• The other side of the alley is open space and not another residential property.
Therefore, the variance request will diverge from the standard in a nominal, inconsequential way when
considered in the context of the neighborhood, and will continue to advance the purpose of the Land
Use Code as contained in Section 1.2.2.
4. Recommendation:
Staff recommends approval of Appeal #2793 with the condition that the utility and access easement is
vacated for the portion of the encroachment.
Written Statement:
Addressing the Zoning Board of Appeals requesting a Variance at 363 Pascal St, Fort Collins CO
80524. Permit # B1405044
Andrew Rauch, VP and Owner of FR Development would like to request a Variance for the
property at 363 Pascal St, Fort Collins CO 80524. Citing section (3) the proposal will not diverge
from the standards of the Land Use Code except in a nominal, inconsequential way when
considered in the context of the neighborhood.
While under construction at 363 Pascal St, we built and encroached 9” (inches) into the 8’ (ft)
designated utility access easement located on the southern most part of the subdivision. The
garage portion of the home extends 9” to the rear on the southeastern corner of the house.
The southwestern corner of the home meets the exact 8’ requirement, thus resulting in a
foundation that was poured a little out of square. While excavating the property we over dug
the foundation hole on all sides. This allows us room to work and set concrete forms, while also
allowing us a clear visual as to what is running underground close to the foundation walls.
During this phase we did not see any visible signs of the physical utilities. This means that the
utilities in question are very well centered within that easement access, a good distance away
from the property foundation wall. The only known utilities (by us) around the rear of the
property is Comcast. I would like to note that the drainage easement is located on the south
side of the alley; this variance would not impact that easement in any way. We will be asking
for a 1’ vacation easement to allow for this mistake. This would reduce the designed 8’
easement down to 7’ on this property only.
FR Development is asking the Board of Appeals to grant this Variance, acknowledging that this
oversight inconsequentially affects the easement in a nominal way and does not change or
hinder the rightful use of any neighboring or adjacent homes or utility providers.
Sincerely,
Andrew Rauch, VP
FR Development, LTD.

This property is a part of the Applewood Estates Subdivision. This subdivision was reviewed
and approved by Larimer County. In 2006 the property was annexed into the City through the
Southwest Enclave Annexation Phase Three.
2. Applicant’s statement of justification: See petitioner’s letter.
3. Staff Conclusion and Findings:
Under Section 2.10.2(H), staff recommends approval of the 91 square foot addition to be built 7 feet
and 5 inches into the required 20 foot side setback and finds the following:
• The variance request is not detrimental to the public good.
• The existing structure already encroaches into the site setback and the proposed encroach
does not exceed the distance of the existing encroachment.
• The requested encroachment is a single story addition.
• The addition is 10 % of the entire length of the side property line.
Therefore, the variance request will diverge from the standard in a nominal, inconsequential way when
considered in the context of the neighborhood, and will continue to advance the purpose of the Land
Use Code as contained in Section 1.2.2.
4. Recommendation:
Staff recommends of approval of Appeal #2794.

LOCATION:
City Council Chambers
300 LaPorte Avenue
Fort Collins, CO 80521
The purpose of this letter is to inform you of a request for a modification of the Zoning Code of the City
of Fort Collins.
The procedure for a person requesting a modification of the Zoning Code is to make application and
appear before the Zoning Board of Appeals. This Board has been established to hear cases, where:
(1) by reason of exceptional situations or circumstances, the strict application of the regulation would
result in peculiar and practical difficulties or exceptional undue hardship upon the owner of such property;
(2) the proposal will promote the general purpose of the standard for which the variance is requested
equally well or better than would a proposal which complies with the standard for which the variance is
requested; or (3) the proposal will not diverge from the standards of the Land Use Code except in
nominal, inconsequential way when considered in the context of the neighborhood, provided that the
granting of a variance would not result in a substantial detriment to the public good.
A variance of code sections:
has been requested by:
for described property:
Zoning District:
4.2(D)(2)(d)
Rick Emery
414 Apple Blossom Ln
U-E
The variance would allow a 91 square foot addition to be constructed 7 feet 5 inches into the required
20 foot side setback.
This item will appear on the Zoning Board of Appeals agenda as Appeal Number: 2794
As an adjacent property owner, your input would be appropriate in the consideration of this variance
request.
The hearing on this appeal will be held at 9:00a.m. on Thursday, February 12, 2015 in the Council
Chambers at 300 LaPorte Ave. Those interested may appear at this meeting, or if unable to attend may
