BACKGROUND:
Mr. Blaine Flynn of Flynn Building Specialist LLC is requesting a variance to reduce the interior east side setback from 5 FT to 3 FT to accommodate a new single family dwelling. This parcel has a unique shape with a width of 42 feet along the front property line and a width of 19 feet along the rear property line. In addition to the constraints presented by the geometry of the lot, the property lies along two streets, making it a corner lot subject to the “Required Visibility Triangle” requirements in Sec. 12-3-58. Although staff can administratively reduce the visibility triangle to not less than 15 feet, the unique shape of the lot provides challenges with development.
