EXPLANATION:
The 5,662 square -foot lot is roughly 80 feet square and developed with a 1 061 square -foot two -
bedroom house and a 423 square -foot garage. The existing house is built at or close to the front and
rear setbacks. Expansion opportunities are limited due to the shallow depth of the lot and a 10-foot
embankment on the north side of the lot. The applicant proposes to construct a 419 square -foot addition
to the rear of the residence that encroaches approximately 14 feet into the required 25-foot rear yard
setback.
