STAFF REPORT BOARD OF APPEALS OCTOBER 10, 2007 ITEM I: 1842 MOUNT VERNON STREET GENERAL DESCRIPTION AND BACKGROUND Allen.1. Wallace-applicant/owner, requests a variance to permit the creation of an asphalt driveway with a 0' setback. Section 30-36 (C)(5)(f) of the Oshkosh Municipal Code: Off-Street Parking and Loading Facilities requires a driveway to bea minimum of 6" from a side lot line. The subject 0.16 acre (approx. 7,084 sq. ft.) property is zoned R-2 Two-Family Residence District and is being used as a single-family dwelling. The parcel is bordered by single-family homes to the east and south, while a two-family dwelling exists to the north. The general area can be characterized as a low-density residential neighborhood. ANALYSIS AND RECOMMENDATION In reviewing a variance request, the following questions should be addressed: When considering an area variance, the question of whether unnecessary hardship or practical difficulty exists is best explained as "whether compliance with the strict letter of the restrictions governing area, set backs, frontage, height, bulk or density would unreasonably prevent the owner from using the property for a permitted purpose or would render conformity with such restrictions unnecessarily burdensome." Are there any unusual or unique physical limitations of the property which create a hardship? . Will granting of a variance result in harm to the public interest? The applicant is requesting a variance to improve (i.e. asphalt) the surface of an existing gravel driveway located on the north side of the property. The proposed improvement would . leave the subject property with a 0' side yard setback for the driveway. An encroachment agreement (see attached) currently exists with the abutting property to the north (i.e. 1848 Mount Vernon Street) because the existing gravel driveway extends approximately 3.5' over the lot line. Other than the upgraded surface improvement, no other changes are being proposed with this request. It should be noted that a letter of approval from the abutting property owner (see attached) has been included for the proposed project. In the applicant's opinion, the variance would not have an adverse effect on surrounding properties because several of the surrounding properties in the area have similar circumstances. The applicant feels the special condition that is applicable to the subject lot is the limited area between the edge of the house and the north lot line to establish a functional driveway. If the variance was not granted and a code compliant driveway was installed, the property owner would only have approximately 8' between the house and the outside of the driveway. A hardship would occur if the variance were not granted because the property would have a narrow driveway approach, which could induce safety hazards. In staffs opinion, the substandard lot width (i.e. 50') is creating a justifiable hardship for this particular parcel. A unique limitation is in place due to the proximity of the principal structure to the north lot line. The variance is not detrimental to the adjacent property as an encroachment agreement is already in place and the petitioner has received consent from the other affected property owner. In general, no harm to the public interest would occur with the granting of the variance. 1 STAFF REPORT ITEM I -2- BOARD OF APPEALS OCTOBER 10, 2007 RECOMMENDATION Based on the information provided within this report, staff recommends approval of the variance as requested. 2 ENCROACHMENT AGREEMENT Document Number Document Title 14oCollLf 6~2-1()(, 10 .' l.
