We aze requesting a Plat Review and variance.
We are requesting a variance from the requirement for the building to face the street.
Request: to have all buildings face the interior of the property.
The variance requested is due to the property being inundated with utility easements,
power line easements and setbacks. This makes for minimal buildable area for the
proposed four-plexes.
Currently there are no existing structures on the property.
See attached survey (Satterfield Survey Job #47216) as visual representation of the
proposed buildings with all easements shown.
