Letter of Intent 
                                        In Support of Request for Variance 
                                       2310 E Folley St. Chandler AZ 85225 
 
This letter of Intent is in support of my request for a variance to the side yard 
located at 2310 E Folley St Chandler AZ 85225. 
 
We are in a very UNQUIE situation. Our property is in a neighborhood that was 
built in the 1980’s, that doesn’t have an HOA and that is next to an open area (San 
Tan Park) all around us except for one neighbor to the east of us. (Please see 
attached documentation). 
We would like to build a garage to the west of us with the width of a standard two 
car garage with enough room for us to enter/exit our vehicles. 
We have already gone through the process through the City of Chandler, and they 
have vacated the alley and deeded it to us. (See attached documents) 
Since the property is right next to San Tan Park and with no neighbors to the 
North or West of us it would NOT cause any undue burden to any neighboring 
residences. The structure will also tie into the existing style of the home. 
We are in a situation (not self-imposed) with climbing interest rates and high 
inflation and the combination makes it impossible to purchase a house that will fit 
our needs. With this new garage it will allow us to turn the existing garage into 
living quarters for our aging 80-year-old Father so we can make sure all of his 
medical needs are met in a loving environment so he can age in place. 
We have submitted all necessary documents and look forward to hearing from 
you. 
Thank you for your consideration. 
                                                                              Respectively submitted, 
                                                                              Donald & Vicki Berglund 480-710-6642
