Applicant Request
Driveways, parking pads, access point, garages or similar facilities
1. The garage is modest in size and design and will be located behind the primary residence. The proposed setbacks meet the requirements of the base zoning and City Engineering requirements. Placement of the garage is appropriate. Due to vegetation on the site and the narrow lots, the garage will not be visible from the right-of-way.

2. The proposed scope of work will not create a new curb cut or driveway, and access will be provided from the alley.

3. The garage features a side-gable roof with a pitch which reflects the primary structure's roof, along with vinyl lap siding and an asphalt shingle-clad roof. All materials meet the design guidelines for secondary structures.
