Planning commission approves carport setback exception at 4342 Fieldstone Drive
Summary
The Planning Commission approved a major-amendment exception to allow a 14x22 carport at 4342 Fieldstone Drive, reducing the south side-yard setback from 8 feet to 5 feet and requiring a gutter diversion to prevent runoff onto the neighbor.
The Planning Commission approved a major amendment (26PD013) to allow a 14-by-22-foot carport on the south side of 4342 Fieldstone Drive, granting an exception that reduces the south side-yard setback from 8 feet to 5 feet. Staff described the carport as open-sided (about 0.333 of a covered stall) and said the structure would be built over an existing concrete pad.
Staff recommended approval with a design stipulation that the new gutter system on the south side be diverted to direct water to the front or rear of the property rather than onto the neighboring lot. Commissioners had no substantive objections after reviewing staff visuals, including an AI rendering shown for context; the motion to approve with stipulations passed by voice vote.
