Applicant seeks accessory‑structure setbacks to add garage on narrow lot
Summary
An owner requested variances to accessory‑structure height and rear/side setbacks to permit a garage; applicant described a like‑for‑like replacement while staff confirmed zoning overlays and no opposition was present.
Tampa — At the March 9 land use hearing, Development Services presented Variance 26‑02‑91, a request to exceed accessory‑structure height and to reduce rear and side yard setbacks to permit a new garage. Staff described the specific numeric relief sought and confirmed a mobile‑home overlay applies to the property.
The applicant introduced themself on the record and said they planned a three‑car garage at the rear of the lot, replacing a pergola and tiling area; they described the request as a practical measure to match neighboring properties and to avoid building over an existing mobile home. The hearing officer asked clarifying questions about existing site coverage and footprint; the applicant and staff confirmed the applicant would sign in with the clerk and that no members of the public had registered opposition.
The officer closed the item for decision and will issue a written ruling within the required administrative timeframe.
