LaSalle County board approves variance to reduce front setback for Stubblefield garage in Manlius Township
Summary
The county approved a zoning variance allowing property owner Robert Stubblefield to reduce the front-yard setback from 70 feet to 60 feet to permit construction of a detached garage; the zoning board had recommended unanimous approval.
The LaSalle County Board approved a variance on May 8 allowing property owner Robert Stubblefield to reduce a front-yard setback from 70 feet to 60 feet at 2997 East 205th Road in Marseilles (Manlius Township).
The variance (25-02) was recommended unanimously by the LaSalle County Zoning Board of Appeals following a public hearing on April 16. The petition seeks permission to construct a detached garage south of the existing house where the requested siting would otherwise encroach on the septic field.
County land-use staff described the request and the zoning board's unanimous recommendation for approval. The board then voted to approve the ordinance authorizing the variance under section 14.8-3 of the LaSalle County Zoning Ordinance. The motion to approve was made by Mister Roberts and seconded by Mister Stockley and carried by voice vote.
The ordinance states the property (PIN 24062070) located in an A-1 agricultural district may reduce the front setback to 60 feet from the centerline of East 205th Road. The ordinance takes effect upon passage and publication in pamphlet form.
No public objections or conditions were recorded in the motion language presented to the board; the transcript records that the zoning board had heard evidence at its public hearing and recommended approval.
