Item No. 14-302
Date: September 22, 2014
Item/Subject: ORDER, Granting an Easement for a Deck Addition at 735 Hammond Street -
Map 6, Lot 15
Responsible Department: Legal
Commentary:
Kenneth Crump is requesting an easement for a portion of his deck in the setback area of his
property at 735 Hammond Street.
Mr. Crump lives at 735 Hammond Street. He recently began construction of an addition to his
deck on the property. It was later discovered that a portion of the addition extends into the
twenty foot Hammond Street setback.
The portion of the deck in question is an addition to the original deck for the house, which was
legally built but is now nonconforming. The addition extends no further into the setback than the
original deck. The majority of the addition does conform to City Code.
Given the circumstances, especially the small size of the setback violation and the presence of
the nonconforming deck, staff recommends approval of an easement of eight feet into the
setback to allow for the deck addition.
This item was discussed at a BED Committee meeting on September 16, 2014.
