RE: 1360 Wheatfield Way
Dear Tim Deanna:
On November 12, 1997, the City of Oshkosh Board of Appeals approved a variance for the above
referenced property for a 13 foot rear yard setback.
The decision of the Board was filed in the Planning Services Office of the Department of Community
Development on November 13, 1997. Per Section 30- 6(C)(3) and (4) of the City of Oshkosh Zoning
Ordinance, your variance will expire on May 23, 1998 unless you have obtained a permit for the activity
allowed by the variance. If you fail to get a permit by this date, you must reapply for a variance if you
intend to go ahead with the activity allowed by the variance.
Building permits may be obtained from the Inspection Services Division in Room 205 at the Oshkosh
City Hall between 7:30 8:30 AM and 12:30 1:30 PM, Monday thru Friday, or call (920) 236 -5050 for
an appointment.
If you have any questions, feel free to call me at (920) 236 -5059.

BOARD OF APPEALS MINUTES PAGE 2 NOVEMBER 12, 1997
Discussion followed as to a deck vs. a wheelchair ramp, the width of the steps, and the issuance of a
permit.
Motion by Roehlig to approve a variance for a six (6) foot five (5) inch setback. Seconded
by Husman. Motion denied (2 -3). (Dahl, Roehlig, Krueger)
Regarding Finding of the Facts, Mr. Roehlig stated there were other altematives to the present building
plans, and he couldn't see any hardship. Mr. Schorse stated the steps could have been replaced without a
variance.
II. 1360 WHEATFIELD WAY
Tim and Deanna Paris, applicants /owners, request a variance for a thirteen (13) foot rear yard setback
whereas section 30 -17 (B) (2) (d) (ii) of the City of Oshkosh Zoning Ordinance requires a twenty -five
(25) foot rear yard setback.
Deanna Paris, 1360 Wheatfield Way, stated the lot was irregular. She also explained the house was built
with sliding glass doors which angled towards the narrow end of the lot. She feels the deck adds to the
appearance of the house and the lot. She also noted the lot behind theirs has a 6' fence on the border. She
stated they added the deck where they felt it was the best possible place for the house design and the lot.
Joyce Goers asked if they had designed the house. Deanna Paris replied they had not. Chairman Krueger
proceeded to review the house and setbacks from all angles, and concluded a deck could not be built
without a violation. Mr. Husman stated the house had met all setbacks, but there is limited ability to
build a deck. Mr. Roehlig noted that the builder should have not included patio doors in an inappropriate
place.
Motion by Roehlig to approve a variance for a thirteen (13) foot rear yard setback.
Seconded by Goers. Motion carried 6 -0.
Regarding Finding of the Fact. Mr. Roehlig pointed out there were no alternatives. Mr. Husman stated
the hardship was not self created.
III. 3317 LOGAN DRIVE
Dominium Wisconsin Five, LP, applicant/owner, is requesting a variance for a nine (9) foot six (6) inch
side yard setback whereas Section 30 -21 (B) (5) (b) (ii) of the City of Oshkosh Zoning Ordinance
requires a ten (10) foot side yard setback, and a variance for a twenty -four (24) foot five (5) inch rear
yard setback whereas Section 30 -21 (B) (5) (d) of the Ordinance requires a twenty -five (25) foot rear
yard setback, and a twenty -four (24) foot nine (9) inch front yard setback whereas Section 30 -21 (B) (5)
(c) of the City of Oshkosh Zoning Ordinance requires a twenty -five (25) foot front yard setback.
Paul Marzynski, 2915 Niagara Lane, Minneapolis, MN stated they were trying to obtain a construction
loan, and now they have a permanent lender who has noticed setback violations and will not proceed
without having a variance granted.
Mr. Roehlig asked if the discrepancy lied at the large end of the lot. Mr. Marzynski stated the comers of
six (6) buildings at the large end fell into the setback area.

ITEM II: 1360 WHEATFIELD WAY Tim and Deanna Paris, Applicants/ Owners
GENERAL DESCRIPTION AND BACKGROUND
Tim and Deanna Paris, applicants /owners request a variance for a 13 foot rear yard setback whereas
Section 30 -17(B) (3) (d) (ii) of the City of Oshkosh Zoning Ordinance requires a 25 foot rear yard
setback.
The general area is characterized by single family residential land uses and is zoned R -1 Single
Family Residence District. The subject property is a single family home.
ANALYSIS AND RECOMMENDATION
In reviewing a variance request, the following questions should be addressed:
Is there an unusual or unique characteristic about the subject property which
creates a hardship?
Is the hardship self created?
Is the variance being requested the least possible needed to remove any
hardship?
Will granting of the variance have a considerable adverse impact on the
neighboring properties?
The applicants constructed a 12' x 20' deck that is attached to the rear of the house. The floor of the
deck is about 24" above grade, and there is a railing around the deck. No permit was obtained for the
deck construction. The subject lot is some what irregular in that one side is 114.50 feet while the
other is 91 feet, and it appears the lot may be smaller than most other lots in the neighborhood. While
somewhat limited, the applicant may have had alternatives which could have allowed for the
construction of a deck that complied with the District Standards.
Based on this information, staff recommends denial of the variance.
