The Cily standard for a parking <br />stall is a minimum o( 8.5 (eet wide by 18.5 feet deep. Several <br />structures within lhe neighborhood as well as the existing single <br />(amily residence on the subject site fail ro meet current City standards <br />relaled to setbacks. If the proposed residence were expanded, or an <br />attached garage were proposed, the structure would be allowed to be <br />construcled along the noncon(orming setback line, without further <br />review from the Cily.
