RE: Letter of Approval for VE -15-02, Variance request from setback requirements; Parcel
No. 45031.4404, 13308 E. Heroy Avenue
Dear Applicant:
On October 9, 2002, a public hearing was held on your application for a variance to allow the
addition of an attached garage to an existing residence, 19.5 feet from the lot front line along
Heroy Road.
At the conclusion of the hearing, I indicated that I would approve the variance, subject to the
conditions of approval listed in the Staff Report, and possible minor revisions to the site plan.
I have decided to modify Planning condition #4 to state as follows:
4. The applicant shall develop the proposed garage in substantial
conformance with the site plan of record submitted on August 13, 2002,
subject to compliance with conditions of approval and regulation standards.
The proposed garage shall be located at least 16.5 feet from the lot front line
adjacent to Heroy Avenue. All aspects of the concept and proposal shall be
binding on the development. Minor variations, to be approved by the Director
of the Division of Planning/designee, shall only be allowed to meet regulation
standards and conditions of approval. Any other modification must be
presented to the Hearing Examiner for review and approval at a public
hearing.
This oral approval is subject to the entry of formal written findings, conclusions and decision
consistent with this letter. I will not be adding any new conditions of approval. The appeal
period will run from the date such written decision is entered.
Sincerely,
(62. -rd -
