Minutes/Jefferson City Board of Adjustment September 9, 2014 6. New Business -Public Hearing 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 There were no miscellaneous reports. 8. Other Business There was no other business. 9. Adjourn With no other business Chairwoman Partee adjourned the meeting at 7:50a.m. Respectfully Submitted, ~&cf Diane Cary Administrative Secretary
