Thc applicant's site plan shows that the residence is 3.5 fcet from thc north lot linc and that thc shod/garage is three feet from the south lot linc and has no setback from the north lot line. The zoning cocie limits accessory buildings to a maximum lot coverage of 1546 of the lot area. Thc shed/garage cxceeds the maximum allowable lot coverage by 57 syuare feet.

The zoning code rcyuires two off-street parking spaces. Thcre is only onc off-street parking space. Decision: I hereby 6nd that the above dexcribcci non-conformities werc established prior to zoning code regulations for the subject property. This certification is subjc�et to revocation if it is found tliat thc information upon which it is based is crroneous. Date: Allan Gi n, Direclor NOTG: Subscction 38.040.0 of the Ciry of Gverett Zoning Cale requires diat a building permit application bc submitted within one year of the demolition of any strucmre in order to rebuild at the same nunconforming setbacA building line or lot coverage. 7'lie above dcscription of non-conformities does not include the 264 square foot carport or the 127 syuare foot workshop that is attached to the east side of the nonconforming shedlgarage. The worksliop may liave been built with a building permit since City records show that a building permit was issued in 1979 fur a storage shed to be used for storage and workshop. However, the workshop cannot Ix ccrtificcl as nonwnforming as it was built after _)56. Thc carport has no building permit history, appears to have been built after 1956, a�xi must be removed. This is an administrative decision appealable to the Ciry's Land Use Hearing Examiner. If you have questions regarding this approval or wish to file an appeal, pleasc contact Steve Ingalsbe, City of G��eretl Planning Departmcnl, at 257-8731.
