RE: Variance Request– Dove Church (ZA21-0093)
Development Services:
As the representative of the above referenced project, I hereby request the following variances.
This a request for variance for the existing driveway stacking depth to remain the existing depth of ±40’,
as approved by the previous site plan (ZA99-099); this site plan is utilizing the existing drives, and the
configuration of the existing site and is asking to reapprove the variance for stacking depth reduction.
This is a request for a variance for the center driveway throat width to remain the 17’4” instead of the
required 24’per the previously approved site plans (ZA99-009). There are still two existing drives with a
throat of 24’ width, so fire access is provided at two locations for the site. This is a request for reapproval
of a variance to the min. throat width to be 17’4” for the center drive.
This is a request for a variance to Zoning Ord. No. 480, as amended, Section 33.19. The site is proposing
not to provide a 5’ sidewalk to be built along Lonesome Dove Rd. There are currently no other existing
sidewalks along Lonesome Dove Road for a sidewalk with this development to connect to or have
pedestrian use and would not serve use for the church or those along Lonesome Dove Road. As requested
by the Planning and Zoning Commission, a 10’ pedestrian access easement has been provided along
Lonesome Dove Road.
Sincerely,
Sachi Burlingame, P.E.
