82 Woodland Circle setback variance request
Summary
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.
