pg.2
Case No. B14008 -2628, 2630 and 2632 Portabello Place Drive; Front Setback Variance.
Application filed by Ryan Prenger Construction, property owner, for a variance of 1 feet from the
front setback of 25 feet to allow a front setback of 24 feet (Section 35-51). The property is
located on the north side of Portabello Place Drive 400 feet east of Creek Trail Drive and is
described as Lot 19 of Creekside Park Section 2, Jefferson City, Missouri.
Mr. Barron explained that the property owner built a three unit townhome on this property in
2013. The property is zoned RA-1 Multi Family Residential. A recent survey of the property
shows that the front of the town home structure sits approximately one foot over the 25 feet front
setback line, which is in violation of the zoning code. In order to allow the structure to remain,
the property owner is seeking a one foot variance to the front setback requirement.
Mr. Ryan Prenger, applicant, lives at 3925 Autumn Woods Ln, Lohman, Missouri. Mr. Prenger
stated that he was the builder for this 3-unit building and he realized after a recent survey that
the buildings were 11 inches off of the setback, so he is requesting that the Board would grant
him a variance of one foot.
Several questions were asked by Mr. Hake and Ms. Partee. Mr. Prenger answered these
questions by stating that Central MO Professional Services (CMPS) did the survey so the units
could be divided into separate lots. He didn't know why the survey drawing was not signed or
sealed by CMPS; that is just how he received it. When the building project began, a footing crew
was hired to do the footing work. Mr. Prenger noticed the off-set problems when he began
reviewing the survey. The units that had been built previously looked as if they were roughly on
the same building line, but the survey drawing showed differently.
With no further questions Mr. Barron stated that the required findings appear to have been met.
The reduction of the front setback requirement by one foot would be minor and would have little
impact on surrounding properties.
Ms. Young made a motion for approval of the requested variance of 1 foot from the 25 foot front
setback to allow a front setback of 24 feet and was seconded by Mr. Rimiller. After discussion
the Board voted to pass the motion 5-0 with the following votes:
Aye: Partee, Young, Graham, Hake, Rimiller
7. Miscellaneous Reports

8. Other Business
