advised that there was approximately fifty-eight (58) feet from <br />the back of the house to his property line and he desires to <br />construct a twenty-four (24) feet wide garage behind the doubles <br />at 2, 4, 6 and 8 Williams Drive but did not desire to have the <br />garage attached to the house. He advised that there was nothing <br />but vacant land behind the property and felt that the proposed <br />placement of the garages would make access to the garage much <br />easier than if the garage were attached to the home. <br /> <br /> The board then proceeded to consider whether the request met <br />with the requirements of I.C. 36-7-4-918.5 concerning variance <br />from development standards. The board found: <br /> <br /> 1. That the approval would not be injurious to the public <br /> <br /> health, safety, morals or general welfare of the community <br /> and that the area in question is presently zoned for <br /> multi-family use and the construction of a garage is an <br /> accessory use allowable on the property and the reduction <br /> from the set-back requirements of twenty (20) feet to ten <br /> (10) feet would not have any adverse impact upon the public. <br /> <br /> 2. That the use and value of the area adjacent to the property <br /> included in the variance will not be affected in a <br /> substantially adverse manner for the same reason that the <br /> construction of a garage is allowed as an accessory use on <br /> property zoned for multi-family dwelling. <br /> <br /> 3. That the strict application of the terms of the zoning <br /> ordinance will result in practical difficulties in the use <br /> of the property and that if the garage was constructed any <br /> closer to the home there would be difficulty in maneuvering <br /> a vehicle into and out of the garage. <br /> <br />-3- <br /> <br /> <br />
