Owner of Property: BACKGROUND 67051 Robert Siede Variance from Section 35-401 to permit construction of a detached garage 21 feet from the side property line of a corner lot rather than the 25 feet required by ordinance. 6138 Dupont Avenue North (Lot 12, Block 3, Cederberg Addition) Robert Siede 1) The applicant's contention in requesting this variance of 5 feet for his proposed garage is that he wants it to "malxh up" in a straight line with the garage of his neighbor to the east. The garage to the east, owned by a Mr. Madden, was installed after a variance had been granted to Mr. Madden in 1959, permitting him to "iriatch up" his garage with his house, which had been built 21 feet from the property line. Although no reasoning :for the Padden setback variance is stated in Une records of either the Commission or Council, I would presume that the variance was due to the fact that the setbacks were changed in 1957; prior to that time, k?hen the house was built, 15 feet was the permitted setback, and 75 foot wide corner lots wewe permitted. After 1957, the requiremej.ts were change6 to 25 feet and. 90 feet, respectively. V ese lots are approximately 78' x 134' in size. 2) The standards for variances set out in -C e Zoning Ordinance. STAFF COMMENTS: 1) The Commission and Council. have, with this application, reached the point at which variances are being requested on the basis of previously granted variances. Presumably, tape variances which have been granted in the past have been in accordance with the standards for variances set out in the zoning ordinance, although this may not have been -the case in all instances. The reason advanced by Mr. Siede for wishing to have a variance on his garage setback is the fact that his neighbor to the east received one, rather than any hardship which exists on his property.
