Re: Proposed Annexation Agreement Clarification
Dear Dana:
I understand that the Plan Commission conducted its workshop
meeting last Tuesday,and is scheduled to bring those requests which
were the subject of our recent public hearing to a vote at the
Commission's regular meeting on January 7, 1992. In advance of
that meeting, I would like to bring the following to the
Commission's attention insofar as our request for reduction of
sideyards is concerned.
Because the Ruffled Feathers Annexation Agreement is silent on the
issue of sideyards, we had requested that the Plan Commission
consider reducing the sideyard requirement to a total of twenty -
five (25) feet. The Plan Commission expressed a strong preference
at our public hearing that the total sideyards not be reduced below
the recently enacted Zoning Ordinance revision that calls for total
sideyards to be set at not less than thirty (30) feet.
We are sensitive to the reasons for the recent revision, and to the
Commission's desire for consistency in application of Ordinance
provisions. Accordingly, we undertook a review of those proposals
for homes received to date, and have projected what we are likely
to receive in the future for the various lot sizes in Ruffled
Feathers. We paid particular attention to the issue of side -load
garages, which are uniformly required by our Declaration of
Covenants.
We are now confident that we can accommodate residential proposals
or the various lot sizes by staying within the total thirty (30)
foot requirement, however, in order to do so, we need the ability
to set one sideyard at twenty feet (the side -load garage side), and
the other at ten feet. This accommodation would allow the Plan
Ccmmision to maintain the thirty (30) foot total sideyard
redu recent , and w' l l allow us to accommodate the side-load garages
that are now required under our Declaration. If the Plan
Commission finds this proposal acceptable, there is no need to
reduce the sideyards to a total of twenty -five (25) feet.

We realize that there may be times where, due to the size of the
lot in question or the size of the home
we may have to vary the side -load proposed therefor, or both,
the occasional front -load garage requirement and allow

I would greatly appreciate your passing this information on to the
Plan Commission in advance of its January 7, 1992 meeting. I will
be present at that meeting if there are any questions. Thank you
for your help.
