You
alright,
we
have
one
item
on
the
agenda:
it's
a
variance
number
18
138
to
reduce
this
required
setback
for
a
single
side
yard
and
total
combined
side
yards
607,
Riverside,
Drive
or
the
benefit
of
our
vast
television
audience.
That's
a
tarp
and
dry
with
the
stop
sign
is,
and
let's
begin
with
the
staff
report.
Please
anyone.

Right
Louis
Serna
presenting
staff
comments.
This
application
is
to
authorize
a
variance
to
reduce
required
total
side
yard
setback
to
allow
for
the
addition
of
an
open
pergola
on
an
existing
single-family
residence.
The
property
is
located
at
607
Riverside
Drive,
the
zoning
is
our
100.
The
are
100
district
requires
a
minimum
of
10
feet
with
a
total
setback
of
25
feet
or
both
side
yards.
The
side
setbacks
of
the
existing
house
are
already
non-conforming.
E
E
E
Sorry,
when
this
subdivision
was
created,
the
request
should
be
for
variance
of
5.2
feet,
I
think
the
Apple.
The
staff
report
in
the
findings
indicates
that
only
four
point:
five
feet
is
needed,
but
the
applicant
and
the
application
is
correct.
It
should
be
a
variance
request
of
5.2
feet
in
order
to
meet
the
requirements.
Our
recommendation,
based
on
the
findings
of
fact
that
are
in
the
staff
report,
are
for
approval,
subject
to
the
applicant
obtaining
a
building
permit
within
2
years.
E
A
F
Evening,
my
name
is
Karen
gruel,
sir
Ackman,
my
address
is
607
Riverside
Drive
I
have
lived
at
that
residence
for
the
past
24
years
and
finally
got
married
a
few
years
ago,
and
my
husband
and
I
decided
we
needed
some
more
space.
So
we
love
our
neighborhood.
We
love
the
city
of
tarpon
springs
and
we
built
an
addition
in
2015.
F
The
final
part
of
our
dream
is
to
build
a
small
pergola
on
the
side
of
our
house,
I've
enclosed
some
photographs.
Just
to
give
you
an
idea
of
what
the
property
looks
like
at
this
moment,
and
all
we
wanted
to
do
was
just
put
a
pergola.
That's
approximately
seven
feet
from
the
from
the
side
of
the
house,
the
east
side
of
the
house,
that
we
could
just
use
as
a
cover
us
for
like
a
little
barbecue
area,
but
unfortunately,
I've
had
to
apply
for
a
variance
or
fortunately,
we're
not
in
the.
F
We
don't
want
to
do
anything
that
the
city
is
not
going
to
bless
so
to
speak
so
before
I
spent
the
money
to
have
an
architect
draw
the
design
for
a
pergola
I
wanted
to
make
sure
that
that
would
be
allowed
and
see
if
we
could
get
the
variance.
So
it's
just
a
small
structure,
it's
gonna,
be
it.
If
you
grant
the
variance,
we
would
have
it
constructed
in
between
the
two
sets
of
little
steps
they're
already
there,
and
we
just
use
that
as
a
little
barbecue
area.
Do
you
have
any
questions?
I'm?
D
E
Well,
essentially,
the
setback
is
being
measured
from
the
post,
the
vertical
members
the
code
does
allow
for
overhang,
so
the
slats
can
be
counted
as
overhang
area.
That's
where
we
get
to
the
5.2
feet
is
because
the
setback
is
measured
from
the
posts.
The
vertical
member
of
that
of
that
structure.
Okay,.
A
Anyone
else
well,
first,
I,
want
to
commend
you
on
behalf
of
the
board.
If
I
can
speak
for
the
board
for
doing
things
correctly,
coming
to
us
ahead
of
time
and
a
lot
of
people,
perhaps
even
your
neighborhood
according
to
this
def,
have
done
things
on
Sundays.
You
know
and
nobody's
there
to
inspect,
to
appreciate
your
willingness
to
come
forward
and
ahead
of
time
in
and
file
for
the
for
the
variance
application.

If
I
could
start
off,
I
asked
last
month
that
the
order
is
the
most
supporters
be
given
to
the
board
they've
already
been
signed,
but
I
wanted
to
make
sure
the
board
is
happy
with
the
wording
of
the
various
orders,
especially
the
one
with
the
sidewalk
waiver
in
case
that
does
go
further.
I
want
to
make
sure
that
those
who
voted
and
the
majority
are
happy
with
the
wording
and
if
not,
then
you
can
know
what
the
answer
might
be
to
raise
it
today
or
to
the
City
Attorney's
Office.
