82 Woodland Circle Variance
Description
The owners of a 1952 rambler were seeking a 13.55-foot front setback variance to add a covered porch with columns, bringing the structure to 30.1 feet from the front lot line.
Impact summary
A small aesthetic and practical upgrade to one home; the creek setback limits rear-yard additions, which is partly why the owners looked to the front.

Variance at 5620 Woodcrest Drive
The council was scheduled to hold a public hearing on an appeal of the Planning Commission's denial of a variance at 5620 Woodcrest Drive. The council's decision could allow or deny a property owner's project that the commission rejected.
82 Woodland Circle setback variance request
Homeowners at 82 Woodland Circle want to add a front porch with columns and a deep overhang that would sit about 13.5 feet closer to the street than the required setback. They say the porch would shelter visitors from rain, snow and ice at the exposed front door, and shade sun-baked front rooms. Neighbors are all single-family homes on R-1 zoned lots, and the property backs up to Minnehaha Creek.
