Southwyck Section Eight
FSI JO 94014-85
Dear Members:
On behalf of Southwyck Eight Ltd., we hereby request a variance on the following items for
Southwyck Section Eight, Phase Two:
1. A 20 foot front building line on cul-de-sac and thumbnail lots.
2. A 5 foot side lot setback.
The request is based on the following considerations:
Twenty Foot Building Line on Cul-de-sac and Thumbnail Lots
1. Lots that front on a cul-de-sac or thumbnail will have a greater distance between
houses than the 100 foot (50' +25' +25') that occurs on the typical 50 foot right-of-
way with a 25 foot building line on both sides. With a 20 foot building line, the
separation between houses on a cul-de-sac will be 140 feet (100+20+20),. There
will not be the appearance from across the street of the houses being crowded.
2. The 20 foot building line outside the right-of-way provides adequate space to park
a car without blocking the sidewalk.
3. Cul-de-sacs typically crowd the depth available for building a house. A 20 foot
building line provides more space toward the front of the lot to fit a house and
provide a back yard.
4. All previous sections of Southwyck Subdivision have requested and used the 20 foot
front building line.

Five Foot Side Building Setback
1. All previous sections of Southwyck Subdivision have been developed with the
five foot side building setback. This side setback along with the developer
deed restrictions has provided for uniform development so that the houses do
not appear crowded.
Based on these considerations, we request the variance request be approved.
Sincerely,

standard lot size in a section.
5-foot side lot building line setback

in accordance with the approved Master Preliminary Plat of the Southwyck/Silverlake
