Project Narrative 
 
This proposal letter is to request and substantiate the grant of a Variance for residence 
at 16201 N. 61st Dr.  Glendale, Arizona 85306, which is zoned R1-6 (Single 
Residence).  The Variance requested is relatively minor and "meets all of the 
parameters" set forth in "Parking Code CC 24-68".  Setbacks from corner for 
unobstructed view easement for local streets detail "# G - 447". 
 
We the property owners Duane E. Price and Gwendolyn S. Green request a Variance 
for a 6-foot block wall as built by a Licensed Contractor 3 feet forward of front plane of 
home.  The current style and structure of the block wall is in harmony with the existing 
neighborhood. 
 
Several Safety issues were taken into account with the contractor in the design and 
construction of the block wall. 
 
1) To further protect livable structure from damage of impact by 
vehicles.  Our property has been impacted on several occasions by vehicles 
leaving the roadway.  The previous block wall was impacted on September 17, 
2021. 
2)  As a consequence of that damage the entire preexisting block wall was removed 
and replaced with adding 13 additional feet.  The 13 additional feet aid's in 
protecting the livable area of our home and the Electrical Service Panel.  Adding 
protection and parking of Recreational Vehicles behind the block wall. 
 
 
Sincerely, 
 
Duane E. Price and Gwendolyn S. Green
