RE: Requesting Variance
To whom it may concern:
My name is Mark Neubauer and I’m fortunate enough to own the property located at 305 N. Shields as well as a
couple of other properties in Fort Collins. I have expended a large amount of my time, energy and finances in an
effort to beautify the properties and in turn I hope my community as well. I have every intent of doing the same
with this property.
There is an existing structure the same distance from the property line that we are trying to match with this
addition. We are attempting to create cohesion by matching the existing conditions. In this scenario the entire
north elevation will be updated to match the new construction creating a much nicer view for the properties to the
north.
The height of the new structure is slightly over the current acceptable limit however we feel it provides the best
overall appearance for the project. It allows the new roof line to tie to and continue at the same slopes as the
existing. There are many existing old growth trees that create much more shading than this addition will. There is
also an apartment building set all the way to the north portion of the parcel that adjoins the entire north property
line of 305 N. Shields, meaning the building and a large portion of their lawn will not be shaded.
I have also attached photos of my other properties in effort to show you what kind of work that I do and how I can
make this property look amazing as well if I’m given this wonderful opportunity.
Thank you,
Mark Neubauer
