CITY OF GALESBURG Planning and Public Works Memo Operating Under Council Manager Government Since 1957 PZ-17-1001 TO: Planning and Zoning Commission Members FROM: Steve Gugliotta, AICP DATE: October 12, 2017 SUBJECT: Variance Application 733 Grove St Attached for the Commission s review is a variance application received from the property owner Tim Krause. The applicant is requesting a variance of Section 152.031 (C) (3) (c) to allow a detached garage more than 10 feet from the main building to be 2 feet from the side property line. The property in question is located within a Single-Family (R1B) zoning district. Adjacent land zoning (uses) on all four sides is R1B (single family uses). There is an existing garage on the property that was damaged by a falling tree last year. The owner is proposing to remove the existing garage, which is approximately 19 inches from the side property line currently, and construct a new garage that would be 2 feet to the side property line. Due to the location of the existing residence and the driveway on the west side of the residence, the owner believes it would be difficult to get a vehicle into the garage without obtaining a variance to allow the 2 foot setback. The Development Review Committee members reviewed the variance requests at their October 11, 2017 meeting and recommend approval. Supporting Documents: 1. Aerial General Location 2.
