The garage size will cover less than 25Z of the entire <br /> rear qard area. Ple2se be aware that a permit was issued 10-30-90 to allow <br /> the garage to be built 8' from the rear line. My building contractor has <br /> poured the floor but the location was changed when it become apparent that <br /> ehe building would need to be further back on the lot to be accessible. <br /> We were aot aware of the required rear yard azea rule and located the floor <br /> 3' from the rear line. <br /> I�y reason for the reqaest for the variance is a hardship situation <br /> since I need t?�e building to be located as far to the rear of my property <br /> as possible so as to allow access fzom the narzow dr.�ve, around the c�rner <br /> of mq house and to be able to maneuver tn and out of the garage. I also <br /> would Iike to someday build a room addition to the zear of the hause. To <br /> locate t?�e garage closer to the house would prevent any new construction <br /> on to the rear of the house. <br /> For your information, please find attached letters signed by my► <br /> adjoining neighbors indicating that they have no objections oi the <br /> approval of my vaziance request. Also attached is a sketch of mq sita <br /> plan and legal description and the required $85.00 filing fee to the Citq <br /> of Decatur. . <br /> IIpon examination of my situation, I hope that approval of mq variance <br /> is forthcoming so that I can complete mq construction as pl�nned. <br /> Sincerely, <br /> Woodrow Smith <br /> f�34 Medial Drive <br /> Decatur, I11. 62521 <br /> Ph. 422-?899 <br />
