Date: September 3, 2024 Project: McDOWELL RESIDENCE – Addition to Existing Address: 6339 W. CORRINE DR. GLENDALE, AZ. APN: 200-76-216 Owner: MCDOWELL 2008 REVOCABLE TRUST VARIANCE: Requesting for the west setback to be at 7 feet 4 inches instead of the standard 20 feet. Request Variance approval to reduce the west side building setback from twenty (20) feet to twelve (12) feet four (4) inches in the SR-30 zoning district for an RV garage addition to the primary residence. Background Information The property is a single-family residence built in 1981 and is a member of the Longhorn Ranch Unit 2 subdivision. The subject lot is located within an LDR 2.5 (Low Density Residential 1 – 2.5 dwelling units per acre) land use area in the Sahuaro council district and is 0.81 acres (38,078 square feet) in size. It is surrounded on all sides by lots within the same subdivision encompassing similar lot dimensions. Current conditions demonstrate that the subject property and its western neighbor each have side-entry garages that are setback a large distance from the property lines causing approximately an eighty-five (85) foot separation of structures. Project Details The proposed project includes construction of an RV garage attached to the existing home. The owners intend to change the access from a side to a front-entry garage that will accommodate their RV. Construction will not infringe upon the front building setback, however, an accommodation is requested to extend the structure beyond the side building setback. The side setback is twenty (20) feet from the property line, and the proposed addition will reduce that setback to twelve feet four inches (12’-4”). This will reduce the distance between neighboring structures to just under fifty (50) feet. Residential Remodel | 6339 W. CORRINE DR.
