Item 9B - Sidewalk Variance RequestSidewalk Variance Request
Ms. Moos,
Per the city, we are required to install a 5’ wide sidewalk when we construct the single-family
custom home at 703 Harty Ct. That rule seems to apply to new construction subdivisions, or
subdivision where sidewalks are currently used and front bar ditches are not used for drainage.
The subdivision this project is being built in was developed in the mid 1980’s and uses bar ditches
for drainage at the fronts of the lots, and none of the existing homes have city sidewalks. As it
would make no sense for our house to be the only house with a sidewalk in front of it, which also
might interfere with the front ditch drainage, we are formally requesting a variance to the
sidewalk regulation that will allow us to not include a front concrete sidewalk on our project.
Please don’t hesitate to contact me with any questions on this matter.
Sincerely,
Steve Sagerson
