SF1 would maintain a five feet setback from southerly side property line; SF2 would maintain <br />approximately eight feet from the northerly side property line. Both are existing conditions and <br />encroach into the 12 foot setback requirement. It would be impractical to move or partially <br />remove a portion of SF2 to comply with the setback requirement. SF1 can be partially reduced <br />since the structure that encroaches is not living area but a covered carport, however full <br />compliance would make the carport impractical and impassable by placing the posts in the <br />middle of the driveway. In addition, TF6 would have an eight foot setback from the northerly <br />side property line. <br /> <br />3. The new additional dwellings will have a minimum 10 foot separation from one another <br />instead of 20 feet that is required in the RO District (see Site Plan, Dimensioned Plan Sheet <br />A.2). Furthermore, additional dwelling TF6 will have an eight foot setback from the side <br />property line where the minimum setback from the side property line is 10 feet for an <br />additional dwelling. <br /> <br />4. Buildings TF5 and TF6 would have a 13 foot setback from the rear property line where 25 feet <br />is the minimum requirement from the rear property line in the RO District. This exception to <br />the setback is comparable to the setback of the 14-unit planned development adjacent to the <br />north. <br /> <br />5. All the buildings comply with the 30 foot maximum height requirement since the existing <br />homes are one-story and the proposed duplexes are 20 feet tall. However there is an additional <br />height requirement in the RO District where the maximum height of the building is 15 feet for <br />the portions that are within 20 feet from the rear property line. Thus, an exception is necessary <br />for TF5 and TF6 which exceeds 15 feet in height and encroaches seven feet into the 20 foot <br />setback. <br /> <br />6. In the RO District there is a daylight plane requirement not to encroach outside a horizontal <br />line 19 feet, 6 inches above the grade of each side setback line and slope inwards at a 45 degree <br />angle. TF6 is proposed to have an eight foot setback, thus this one building w ould encroach <br />four feet outside the building envelope. <br /> <br /> <br />7. The RO District requires the following for off-street parking spaces: a) Single-family <br />Dwellings: two covered spaces per unit; and b) Two -family Dwellings: 2 spaces, including 1 <br />covered space, per unit. The total required for this project is 32 spaces including 20 covered <br />spaces and 12 uncovered spaces; however required parking is typically provided as <br />independently accessible spaces and not in a tandem arrangement. The proposal includes 44
