[00:00:07]
>> ALL RIGHT. WE'LL CALL THE JANUARY 5TH MEETING TO ORDER.
[APPROVAL OF MINUTES]
[CHAIRMAN’S OPENING REMARKS]
>> I HAVE A MOTION TO APPROVE THE MINUTES.
>> I MOVE APPROVAL. >> I SECOND.
TO READ. [INDISCERNIBLE] BUT ONLY VOTE WHEN NECESSARY TO ENSURE FOUR VOTE MEMBERS AND HAVE A BOARD [INDISCERNIBLE] APPLICATION FOR A VARIANCE.
[1. Variance to Table 5-2, Lot area, Setback, Bulk Regulations and Parking Requirements: Neighborhood Conservation]
DO WE HAVE ANY OLD BUSINESS? >> YES.
GOOD AFTERNOON. YOUR FIRST CASE TODAY IS GOING TO BE A SET OF VARIANCES FROM THE NC DISTRICT, SPECIFICALLY THREE VARIANCES. THE FIRST IS A VARIANCE OF 3-FEET TO THE REQUIRED MINIMUM SIDE SETBACK OF 14-FEET TO ALLOW A MINIMUM SIDE SETBACK OF 11-FEET.
THE SECOND VARIANCE IS A 1 FOOT VARIANCE TO THE REQUIRED TOTAL SIDE SET BACK OF 30-FEET TO ALLOW A TOTAL SIDE SETBACK OF 29-FEET. THE LAST IS A VARIANCE OF 0.506 TO THE IMPERVIOUS SURFACE RASH YOU MAXIMUM OF 0.36 TO ALLOW AN ISR OF 0.42. THE PROPERTY IS AT 215MARION CIRCLE IN THE NC-14 DISTRICT. YOU CAN SEE THAT THE PROPERTY IS SURROUNDED BY SIMILARLY ZONED RESIDENTIAL PROPERTIES JUST SOUTH OF THE URBAN NEIGHBORHOOD SO THIS IS FAIRLY CENTRAL INTO THE CITY. PROPERTY OWNERS ARE GREG AND ANNA SOLOMON WHO ARE HERE. THE APPLICANTS ARE WANTING TO BUILD AN ADDITION ONTO THEIR HOME TO ALLOW A GROUND STORY BEDROOM FOR THE PURPOSES OF BEING ABLE TO STAY IN THE LOCATION A LITTLE BIT LONGER FOR THEIR -- DURING THEIR AGE AND ALSO PROVIDING A TORNADO SHELTER IN THE ADDITION AS WELL.
YOU CAN SEE THAT THE LOCATION OF THE HOUSE ITSELF ON THE PROPERTY IS SET MUCH FURTHER BACK THAN THE SETBACK IS REQUIRED FOR THIS AREA. THAT'S CREATED AN INSTANCE WHERE THEY'VE HAD TO INCREASE THE IMPERVIOUS SURFACE FOR A DRIVE TO REACH THE HOUSE IN ADDITION TO THE ADDITIONAL SIZES AND STRUCTURES THAT ARE ALREADY THERE.
THAT'S THE PURPOSE OF THE ISR. YOU ALSO HAVE ON THE SIDE OF WHERE THE ADDITION WILL GO, THERE IS ALREADY PART OF A STRUCTURE THAT WILL BE TAKEN DOWN TO PERMIT THE ADDITIONAL PORTION OF THE BUILDING TO BE ADDED ON, HOWEVER, THIS WILL EXTEND ANOTHER 6-FEET OR SO ON THE OPPOSITE SIDE OF THAT WHICH WILL INCROAK OENCROACH ON THAT SETBACK.
AS A RESULT OF THAT, THE SIDE SETBACK IS ALSO REDUCED AS YOU ADD THOSE SIDE SETBACKS TOGETHER.
THE TWO SITE PLANS YOU SEE IN FRONT OF YOU, THE FIRST IS THE ORIGINAL SUBMISSION ON THE RIGHT AND THE SECOND IS THE REVISED SUBMISSION WHICH HAS A COUPLE OF DIFFERENT MEASUREMENT DIFFERENCES. ONE OF THE THINGS THAT WENT INTO STAFF CONSIDERATION WAS SOMETHING SHOWN ON THE ORIGINAL
[00:05:02]
LEFT OFF OF THE REVISED. THE FRONT YARD, WHICH MAKES UP THE MAJORITY OF THEIR BUILDABLE AREA IN THE LOT, YOU ARE UNDER GROUND EASEMENTS ONLINES THAT RUN THROUGH THAT FRONT YARD.HERE'S THE FLOOR PLAN FOR THE PROPOSED ADDITION.
YOU CAN SEE IT'S A BEDROOM WITH -- ESSENTIALLY IT'S A MASTER BEDROOM SUITE. EAR'S A PICTURE OF THE PROPERTY LOOKING'S A PICTURE OF THE PROP LOO 'S A PICTURE OF THE PROPERT LOOH'S A PICTURE OF THE PROPERT LOOE'S A PICTURE OF THE PROPERT LOOR'S A PICTURE OF THE PROPERT LOOE'S A PICTURE OF THE PROPERTY LOOKING AT THE FRONT. THIS LINE IS THE ROOF LINE OF THE EXISTING STRUCTURE. HEAR YOU SEE THE PORTION OF THE BUILDING THAT'S THE GOING TO BE TAKEN DOWN AND REPLACED WITH A LARGER AREA SHADED THERE. THIS DOTTED RED LINE REPRESENTS THE PROPERTY LINE ON THAT SIDE. AS A RESULT OF THE CIRCUMSTANCE TEA INVOLVED, STAFF IS RECOMMENDING APPROVAL FOR THIS.
WE RECEIVED POSITIVE CORE SPAWN DANCE IN REQUESTS FROM THREE OF THEIRCORRESPONDENCE IN REQUESTS THREE OF THEIR NEIGHBORS AND ONE OTHER REQUEST JUST FOR INFORMATION FROM ANOTHER NUMBER.
WE HAVE NOT RECEIVED ANYTHING IN OPPOSITION TO THEIR REQUEST.
WE'LL BE HERE IF THERE ARE ANY QUESTIONS OF STAFF.
>> DID THE NEIGHBOR TO THE EAST SPEAK IN FAVOR OF IT?
>> YES. >> ANY OTHER QUESTIONS?
>> I DON'T HAVE A QUESTION BUT JUST FOR NOTES, IN THE REQUEST, WE HAVE 1, 3, AND 3 AS OPPOSED TO VARIANCE 1, 2, AND 3.
>> I DID SIGH THAT, YES, THAT'S MY FILED.
>> THANK YOU, JAY. WOULD THE APPLICANT LIKE TO
SPEAK? >> THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
I'M ANNA SOLOMON AND MY HIS IS GREG.
WE ARE THE APPLICANTS. WE LIVE IN AN OLDER HOUSE BUILT IN 1939. ALL THE BEDROOMS ARE UPSTAIRS.
WE HAVE A HALF BATH DOWN STAIRS BUT NOT A FULL BATH DOWNSTAIRS.
THE WAY THE LOT IS CONFIGURED, IT'S ODD AND WHERE THE HOUSE IS BUILD TOWARDS THE BACK PART OF THE LOT, THAT MAKES THE DRIVEWAY SEEM LIKE IT'S REAL LONG TO GET TO THE HOUSE AND OUR NEIGHBOR TO THE EAST, DONNA BOHANNON AND FRANK, THEY DID A SIMILAR ADDITION TO THEIR HOUSE A DOZEN YEARS AGO, SO SHE UNDERSTANDS WHAT WE'RE DOING SO THEY READ A LETTER IN SUPPORT, BUT DUE TO COVID CONCERNS THEY DIDN'T WANT TO BE HERE TONIGHT.
WE ASKED THEM AND SAID WE WERE FINE IF THEY DIDN'T WANT TO COME HERE TONIGHT. THE OTHER NEIGHBOR WHO LIVES TWO DOORS DOWN, LESLIE BEARD IS AN INTERIOR DESIGNER AND SHE'S THE PERSON WHO DREW UP OUR PLANS. SHE HAS DONE ADDITIONS TO HER HOUSE. I DON'T BELIEVE SHE WROTE A LETTER OF SUPPORT BECAUSE SHE FELT LIKE THAT MIGHT BE ODD TOO WRITE A LET RE OF SUPPORT AND THEN TO BE DRAW UP THE PLANS BUT SHE'S WORKINGTER OF SUPPORT AND THEN TO BE DRAW UP THE PLANS BUT SHE'S WORKING WITH US FOR THAT. SO WHAT QUESTIONS CAN I ANSWER?
>> ANY QUESTIONS? >> I HAVE ONE.
YOU MENTIONED IN THE APPLICATION THAT YOU DID SOME TOPOGRAPHY CHANGES FOR DRAINAGE ISSUES. HAVE THERE BEEN ANY PROBLEMS
THE LOT SLOPES FROM THE BACK AND IT DID SLOPE TOWARDS THE HOUSE SO WE DIVERTED THAT ANDWY HAD A LOCAL LANDSCAPE ARCHITECT AND I BROUGHT THOSE PLANS, TOO. I HAVE LOTS OF THINGS IN FOLDERS AND MY HUSBAND HAS THE LANDSCAPE ARCHITECT PLANS BUT SINCE THAT
TIME DIVERTED IT. >> ANY OTHER QUESTIONS?
>> ALL RIGHT, THANK YOU MRS. SOLOMON.
[00:10:05]
>> I FEEL LIKE I NOED TO ANSWER MORE THINGS.
>> IT SEEMS CLEAR TO ME. YOU'RE GETTING OLDER, YOU WOULD LIKE SPACE DOWNSTAIRS TO BE ABLE TO LIVE IN OUR OWN HOUSE.
YOU'RE NOT CHANGING THE CHARACTER OF THE HOUSE, IT'S GOING TO STAY THE SAME ON THE OUTS.
APT AND I HAVE LOTS OF PINTEREST PICTURES, TOO, WITH THE VISION THAT'S THERE. [LAUGHTER] LESLIE DIDN'T DRAW ANY ELEVATIONS FOR US YET BECAUSE SHE WANTED TO MAKE SURE SHE WAS USING HER TIME WISELY AS WE WORKED WITH HER. THAT WAS I THINK SOME PICTURES OF A HOUSE THAT WE HAD RENOVATED THAT IS PINTEREST WORTHY, I THINK, TOO. BUT THE HOUSE WILL STILL HAVE THE CHARACTER. ENVISION A SMALL SUN ROOM IN THE FRONT OF IT WILL STILL LOOK COLONIAL.
>> OKAY, THANK YOU. >> OPEN TO PUBLIC HEARING.
NOBODY COMING FORWARD, CLOSE PUBLIC HEARING.
OPEN TO BOARD DISCUSSION. >> ALL THE STATEMENTS ABOUT THE NARROW LOT AND THE PLACE. OF THE HOUSE TOWARDS THE BACK BUT THIS WAS BECAUSE THE HOME PREDATES BEING ZONED AS NEIGHBORHOOD CONSERVATION SO MOST OF THE LOTS ARE LEGALLY
NONCONFORMING ALREADY. >> RIGHT.
IF NO ONE HAS AN ISSUE WITH IT, I WILL MOVE TO APPROVE THE THREE VARIANCES, PL-2021-00709, THE VARIANCE OF 3-FEET TO THE REQUIRED MINIMUM SETBACK OF 14-FEET TO ALLOW A MINIMUM SIDE
SET BACK OF 11-FEET. >> SECOND.
>> AND THE SECOND VARIANCE, THE VARIANCE OF 1 FOOT TO THE REQUIRED TOTAL SIDE SETBACK OF 30-FEET TO ALLOW A TOTAL SIDE SETBACK OF 29-FEET.
AND THE THIRD VARIANCE OF THE 0.06 TO THE ISR MAXIMUM OF 0.36
TO ALLOW AN ISR OF 0.42. >> SECOND.
[2. Variance to Section 604, Prohibited Signs, of the City of Auburn Zoning Ordinance PL-2021-00776]
BUY AND TAKE A PICTURE. PUT IT ON PINTEREST.>> AB, NEXT CASE IS KITTY. >> THIS WAS POSTPONED FROM YOUR LAST MEETING. WE DO HAVE FIVE MEMBERS TONIGHT BY ONE OF THE MEMBERS HAS CONFLICT THAT THEY WON'T BE ABLE TO VOTE ON THIS, SO FOR THAT REASON PLUS PERSONAL REASONS, THE APPLICANT IS REQUESTING THAT YOU POSTPONE THIS ONE MORE TIME IF YOU WOULDN'T MINE. STAFF IS PERFECTLY GOOD WITH THIS TO THE FEBRUARY 2ND MEETING.
>> ALL RIGHT, MOVE TO POSTPONE PL-2021-00776 TO THE
FEBRUARY 2ND MEETING. >> I THINK I SHOULD NOT VOTE ON IT AT ALL SO I'M GOING TO RECUSE FROM THIS PART, TOO.
>> I'LL SECOND. >> EMMY SORRELLS?
[3. Variance to Table 5-1, Lot Area, Setbacks, Maximum Impervious Surface, and Parking Requirements for]
UNDER NEW BUSINESS IS A REQUEST FROM DONNY AGNEW FOR A PROPERTY AT 2245-MORGAN DRIVE IN THE DEVELOPMENT DISTRICT HOUSING ZONINGMORGAN DRIVE IN THE DEVELOPMENT DISTRICT HOUSING ZO MORGAN DRIVE IN THE DEVELOPMENT DISTRICT HOUSING ZONING DISTRICT. THE VARIANCE SOUGHT THE A VARIANCE TO TABLE 5-1 TO REDUCE THE FRONT SETBACK FROM A[00:15:07]
REQUIRED 25-FEET TO A 20-FOOT SETBACK.HERE IS A PROPOSED HOUSE, SITE PLAN FOR THE PROPERTY.
IT'S ONE OF THE LAST LOTS IN MORGAN WOODS.
AS PROPOSED, ONLY A PORTION OF THE HOME WOULD ENCROACH INTO THAT FRONT SET BACK. BASED ON STAFF'S ANALYSIS, THERE'S NO -- NOT NECESSARILY A HARDSHIP THAT WOULD DEPRIVE THE PROPERTY FROM ITS USE AS A SINGLE FAMILY HOME.
LIKEWISE, NO UNIQUE CIRCUMSTANCE THAT WOULD DEPRIVE IT OF TOTAL USE. THE PROPERTY OWNER IS HERE IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS FOR HIM. OTHERWISE, I'LL BE HAPPY TO
ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS. >> ANY QUESTIONS FOR LOGAN?
>> IS IT JUST THE WALK? IS THAT WHAT THAT IS?
>> NO, IT'S LIKE A FRONT -- >> WHERE THE ORANGE PART IS?
>> YES, MA'AM. >> IT'S HARD TO TELL.
>> IT IS HARD TO TELL. WHERE IS THAT AGAIN?
>> WHERE THE HOUSE IS GOING TO BUTT UP BECAUSE THE SIDEWALK
DOES NOT COUNT. >> RIGHT, THE SIDEWALK DOES NOT
COUNT. >> IT LOOKS LIKE THE ORANGE IS
THE ENROACHMENT AREA. >> CORRECT.
>> WHAT IS THIS RIGHT HERE? >> BUT WHAT IS THAT?
>> IT'S JUST EXTENDING A DINING ROOM AND A FRONT STOOP OR SOMETHING. THE ORIGINAL PLAN WAS TO HAVE IT
WHERE THE BLOCK LINE WAS. >> THIS IS THE ORIGINAL PLAN.
THERE'S NO EXISTING HOUSE ON IT. THIS WOULD BE A NEW BUILD.
>> THIS IS THE LAST LOT IN THE SUBDIVISION.
>> YEAH, SECOND TO LAST. >> THERE ARE A COUPLE IN THERE THAT IN THERE THAT L IN THERE THAT O IN THERE THT IN THERE THS IN THERE THAT HAVEN'T BEEN BUILT
>> THAT'S AN AREA WHERE THE PROPOSED STRUCTURE WOULD EXIST
INTO THE SETBACK. >> I'M CONFUSED.
THE DARK LINE LOOKS LIKE THE BUILDING.
>> THAT BLACK LINE SHOULD EXTEND.
>> THAT'S WHAT THEY WOULD LIKE TO DO, CORRECT.
>> OH, OKAY. >> BUT NOTHING HAS BEEN BUILT?
>> THAT'S CORRECT. >> DO YOU MIND IF I ASK A QUESTION. LISTENING TO EVERYBODY'S QUESTIONS, THE CONFUSION MIGHT BE THAT THE BLACK LINE SEEMS TO REPRESENT SOMETHING. IF IT'S NOT AN EXISTING HOME S THAT A STANDARD FLOOR PLAN THAT SOMEONE HAS THAT IS TRYING TO BE BUILT ON THIS SITE AND THERE'S A MODIFICATION TO IT THAT RESULTS IN THE ORANGE? THAT'S WHAT I'M WONDERING.
>> YEAH, THIS IS THE FLOOR PLAN THAT'S BEEN REDICED.
>> GO AHEAD AND COME UP AND GIVE YOUR NAME.
>> GUYS, THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME.
I'M DONNIE AGNEW, THE PROPERTY OWNER.
THE FLOOR PLAN THAT'S SHOWN HERE HAS BEEN CUT DOWN ABOUT 5-FEET AND IT'S NEEDED TO -- WHEN YOU CUT A FLOOR PLAN DOWN IT'S LIKE OKAY, THE LIVING ROOM AND INSTEAD OF 18-FEET WIDE, IT'S ONLY 13, NO ONE WANTS SOMETHING LIKE THAT SO I NEED THAT ROUGHLY 5-FEET TO BE ABLE TO GET A HOUSE THAT IS CONSISTENT IN CHARACTER WITH THE NEIGHBORHOOD AND SIMILAR SIZE AND BEDROOM COUNT TO BE ABLE TO FIT ON THE LOT BASICALLY.
I'M SORRY FOR THE CONFUSION THERE, I PROBABLY COULD HAVE DONE A BETTER JOB. THIS IS MY FIRST TIME COMING TO THE BZA, SO. ONE THING THAT THAT WILL ALSO HELP WITH IS THERE'S A DRIVEWAY ON THE SIDE PROPERTY LINE AND I THINK THAT THE 5-FEET WILL GIVE ME A LITTLE BIT OF ROOM, TOO, TO CREATE A BUFFER BETWEEN THAT DRIVEWAY THAT PASSES ON THAT NORTH SIDE PROPERTY LINE AS WELL.
>> OKAY. ANY QUESTIONS FOR DONNIE?
>> I THINK MIKE SPENT A GOOD BIT OF TIME TRYING TO MAKE THIS A LOT WHERE YOU CAN BUILD A HOUSE THAT'S SIMILAR IN CHARACTER AND SIZE TO THE OTHER HOUSES IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD AND HE CAN ATTEST TO THE FACT THAT WE WORKED ON THIS A GOOD BIT AND WE FEEL LIKE THIS IS THE BEST SOLUTION. THANK YOU, GUYS.
[00:20:02]
>> DONNIE, WILL YOU BE SURE TO SIGN IN FOR US, PLEASE?
>> DO YOU WANT ANYMORE CLARITY ON THAT?
I CAN TELL YOU THE HISTORY. >> IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO SPEAK,
YOU'RE MORE THAN WELCOME TO. >> MIKE MAR, PRECISION SURVEYING. WE HAVE PROBABLY DONE SIX SITE PLANS ON THIS LOT. THE SUBDIVISION WAS DONE IN 2009 OR 2010. WHEN THE HOUSTON DEVELOPERS LOOKED AT THAT THEY SHOULD HAVE TAKEN FIVE MORE FEET FROM THE OTHER LOTS. THE OTHER THING THAT DOESN'T SHOW UP WELL IS THAT DRIVEWAY TO THE NORTH SERVES TWO LOTS.
IT'S MORE LIKE A PRIVATE ROAD THAN IT IS A DRIVEWAY SO WE HAD TO TAKE SPECIAL CONSIDERATION IN DEALING WITH THE OWNER TO THE NORTH AROUND THEY INSTALLED A FENCE AND PIT AN EASEMENT IN PLACE AND GIVE US SURETY THAT THEY WOULD HAVE AN EGRESS AND INGRESS SO THAT WOULD ENSURE SPACE FOR THE DRIVEWAY IN THE BACK. IF YOU HAVE ANY OTHER QUESTIONS,
I WOULD BE HAPPY TO ANSWER. >> THANK YOU, SIR.
CLOSE PUBLIC HEARING. OPEN TO BOARD DISCUSSION.
>> DID WE RECEIVE ANY COMMUNICATION FOR THIS?
SEE THAT STAFF RECOMMENDS DENIAL, SO.
AND THEY'RE TRYING TO FIT IN A HOUSE WHICH I WOULD TRY TO DO THE SAME THING, THE BIGGEST HOUSE THEY CAN FOR THE LOT.
>> I DON'T THINK IT'S OUT OF CHARACTER FOR WHAT'S OUT THERE,
EITHER. >> THE OTHER HOUSES ARE BIG.
I WOULD SAY IT NEEDS TO STAY WITHIN THE PLAN, LIKE IT WOULD NEED TO ADHERE TO THE PLAN AS PRESENTED.
SO MOVING IT TO THAT ORANGE LINE, IS THAT GOING TO PUSH THE SIDEWALK UP THE ADDITIONAL SIDE FEET AS WELL? THAT PROBABLY DOESN'T REALLY MATTER BUT JUST FROM AN AESTHETIC POINT. IS THAT GOING TO PUSH THAT FORWARD, TOO, OR WILL THAT STAY WHERE IT IS?
>> THEY HAVE AN OPTION IN THE CONVENTIONAL SUBDIVISION, ONE SIDE IS SLIGHTLY OFFSET TO THE OTHER TO MEET THE TOTAL SIDE SETBACK SO THEY HAVE CHOSE TON PUT THE LARGER SIDE SETBACK ON THE PORTION OF THE PROPERTY THAT HAS THE DRIVEWAY ON IT BECAUSE
OF THE DRIVEWAY. >> YEAH, I HAVE SEEN THAT
BEFORE, TOO. >> AS SHOWN, NOT INCLUDING THE REQUESTED VARIANCE, THE PROPOSED RESIDENCE IS RIGHT ON THE SETBACK LINES. MAXED OUT.
>> THERE'S NOT REALLY ANY WAY TO TWEAK IT, EITHER, TO MOVE IT,
I'M SURE. >> MR. CHAIRMAN? TWO COMMENTS. WIN, REGARDING THE SIDEWALK FROM THE DRIVEWAY TO THE FRONT DOOR, IF PART OF THE ASK IS WILL THAT BE RELOCATED, I WOULD THINK OBVIOUSLY IT WILL BE MOVED OUT SO THAT'S FINE BUT THE OTHER THING IS IF YOU DO HAVE A MOTION FOR APPROVAL, WE WOULD NORMALLY RECOMMEND THAT THE CONSTRUCTION BE SKWINT THE PLAN THAT YOU HAVE ONCONSISTENT THE PLAN THAT YOU HAVE ON THE SCREEN RIGHT NOW. YOU COULDN'T DEVIATE FROM THAT.
>> THIS IS OUR LAST ONE. IF IT IS OUR LAST ONE.
>> WHAT DO YOU THINK? >> THE BUILDING LINE, IT'S 6'9" FEOOT, A TOTAL OF, 9 FOOT, A TO RIGHT?
>> IT'S ONLY 10-FEET, ISN'T IT? OR 5-FEET.
>> CHECKING THE ORDINANCE NOW. >> OKAY.
>> I CAN ANSWER THAT IF YOU WANT.
IT'S A 15-FOOT TOTAL SET BACK SO YOU CAN SPLIT IT WHERE ONE SIDE COULD BE CLOSE TO 6 SO THE REMAINED RE WOULD HAVE TO BE 9 SOWY CHOSE TO PUT THE SMALLER AWAY FROMDER WOULD HAVE TO BE 9
[00:25:07]
SOWY CHOSE TO PUT THE SMALLER AWAY FROM THE DRIVEWAY.>> IT'S ALL RIGHT TIGHT. THE WHOLE NEIGHBORHOOD IS ALREADY SQUEEZED PRETTY SIGHT, I GUESS, FROM WHAT I HAVE SEEN.
WITH IT BEING A CURVE RIGHT THERE ON THE STREET, WE DON'T HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT ANY BLOCKAGES OR OBSTACLES WHERE EVEN IF THEY SCOOT IT FORWARD, WE DON'T HAVE THAT PROBLEM AS FAR AS VIEW AND ALL THAT STUFF FOR TRAFFIC?
>> NO, IT'S ON THE RIGHT SIDE OF THE CURB.
>> IT'S A 2-WAY STREET, RIGHT? >> DEPENDS ON WHICH WAY YOU'RE DRIVING. I SEE WHAT YOU'RE SAYING.
I KNOW WHY THEY DID THAT. YOU WOULDN'T WANT YOUR BEDROOM OR WHATEVER IS OVER HERE. I DON'T KNOW WHAT THAT IS.
>> WE DON'T KNOW WHAT ANY OF IT IS.
I GUESS MY POINT IS IT'S ALREADY AN EXTREMELY TIGHT SET UP NICHED SO IN MY OPINION, WHOEVER SET IT UP TO BEGIN WITH IT WAS A PROBLEM. I DON'T THINK WE'RE ADDING TO
>> YOU KNOW HOW I HAVE VOTED IN THE PAST, THEY CAN GO BACK AND
REDRAW IT AND MAKE IT FIT. >> I AGREEMENT
>> THEY HAVE DONE THAT HOW MANY TIMES?
>> AT LEAST FOUR. >> WE'RE PROBABLY AT THE POINT OF EXHAUSTING ALL POSSIBLES AT THIS POINT I WOULD THINK.
>> CAN WE BRING THE AERIAL BACK UP SO YOU CAN SEE THE CONTEXT OF THAT LOT WITH SOME OF THE OTHERS WITH THE ODD SHAPE AND SO FORTH?
>> 39 TIMES TO GET IT RIGHT, RIGHT?
>> ALL RIGHT. DO I HEAR A MOTION?
>> HIM I'MN? >> HIM I'M INCLINED TO APPROVE PL-2021-00843 FOR VARIANCE OF 5-FOOT TO FRONT SETBACK, MAXIMUM IMPERVIOUS SURFACE AND PARKING REQUIREMENTS FOR CONVENTIONAL SUBDIVISIONS OF THE CITY OF AUBURN ZONING ORDINANCE TO REDUCE THE REQUIRED SET BACK FROM 25-FEET TO 20-FEET.
>> WOULD THAT BE WITH THE CONDITION THAT THE CONSTRUCTION
BE CONSISTENT? >> YES, SORRY, WITH THAT CONDITION. I STAND ALONE?
NOBODY IS GOING TO SECOND IT? >> SECOND.
>> ALL RIGHT. MEETING IS ADJOURNED.
[Staff Communication]

WILSON FOR YOUR SERVICE TO THE BOARD AND THE CITY OF AUBURN. THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR THE TIME YOU HAVE EXPENDED. APPRECIATE THAT.
