CITIZEN PARTICIPATION FINAL REPORT PROJECT: WILSON RESIDENCE: RV GARAGE WITH CASITA LOCATION: 17318 N 64TH LANE, GLENDALE, AZ 85308 APN: 200-45-003B CASE NUMBER: VAR 24-08 Failed BY DATE Conditionally Approved Approved Sydney Tirella 9/12/2024 City of Glendale Development Services Department Planning Division VAR24-08 Citizen Participation Final Report PROPOSED PROJECT – BRIEF DESCRIPTION The Wilsons wish to build an RV garage and casita at their residence. The building will be similar in scope and size to our neighbors on each side directly to the North and East. This request is for a Variance to allow a maximum of 20’ 10” in the RR-45 Zoning District as the maximum height provided in the Unified Development Code is 16’. The height of the proposed garage is 20’ 10’. The COG’s new maximum height of 16 feet requires an application and subsequent approval for a variance in order to build the RV garage. Since a garage door is typically 14 feet high and the header above the garage door is 12 inches minimum, that would make the top plate 15 feet. The depth of the roof truss could be anywhere from 3 to 4 feet. It is for these reasons we are applying for a variance. The placement of the RV garage and casita will be on the southwest of the lot. The proposed RV garage is 1664 SF, and its dimensions are 52’ L x 32’ W x 20’ 10” H. The proposed casita is 1024 SF, and its dimensions are 38’ x 32’ with a covered porch and carport of 762 SF. The lot is 1.25 acres. CITIZEN PARTICIPATION PLAN – BRIEF OVERVIEW Public notification of this project included a notification letter with a two-week period for comments.
