Council approves zoning variance to allow deck encroachment at 1105 Harrison Street (6–0)
Summary
Council approved a final-reading ordinance granting a variance to permit a deck that encroaches the interior side-yard setback at 1105 Harrison Street after the Zoning Board of Appeals recommended approval 4–0 and no members of the public spoke against it.
The Park Ridge City Council unanimously approved a zoning-variance ordinance May 18 to allow replacement of a backyard deck that encroaches the interior side‑yard setback at 1105 Harrison Street (file PA‑26‑09).
Planning staff described the property as a single‑family home with existing legal nonconformities and said the applicant, Mr. Rossman, appeared before the Zoning Board of Appeals on May 14; the ZBA recommended approval by a 4–0 vote. "They have an existing deck... they need 1 major variance approval, because it encroaches in the interior side yard setback," staff said.
Council asked no substantive questions of staff or the applicant; there were no public comments on the item. The council approved the final reading by roll call, recorded 6–0 in favor.
The ordinance grants the requested variance for the deck replacement; the council packet contains the final ordinance text and case number PA‑26‑09.
