NOTICE OF TYPE I DECISION VAR2003-00035/FIELD REAR YARD SETBACK ADJUSTMENT PAGE 1 OF 3 SECTION III. BACKGROUND INFORMATION Site Histo . The subject parcel is lot 9 of Evergreen Springs, a platted subdivision. The subdivision was approved in the Cit of Tigard and is subject to the standard underlying zoning setback standards. No Ci y land use records were found which affect development on this parcel. Vicinity Information: The property is located near the cul-de-sac bulb on 116th Terrace, south of SW Gaarde. Site Information and Proposal Description: The subJ'ect property is trapezoidal in shape with the street frontage wrapping partially around the south side yard, where the cul-de-sac bulb starts, and approximately 8,000 square feet in size. There is an existing house built in 1999 with a small rear deck. The existing deck encroaches 3 feet into the rear yard but is only large enough to accommodate a landing and stairs for the back door. The applicant has requested the 3-foot reduction to the rear yard to reconstruct the small deck and expand it south where it can be widened and made more useable. SECTION IV. APPLICABLE REVIEW CRITERIA AND FINDINGS RESIDENTIAL ZONING DISTRICTS (18.510): The development standards that affect this property are modified through the Planned Development Overlay, as shown below. TABLE 18.510.2 - DEVELOPMENT STANDARDS IN RESIDENTIAL ZONES STANDARD - R-4.5 Standard Proposed Minimum Lot Size - Detached unit 7,500 sq. ft. 8,088 s.f. - Duplexes 10,000 s q. ft. Average Minimum Lot Width - Detached unit lots 50 ft. 80 ft. - Duplex lots 90 ft. Maximum Lot Coverage Minimum Setbacks - Front yard 20 ft. 22.5 ft. - Side facing street on corner & through lots 15 ft. 34 ft. - Side yard 5 ft. 19.5 ft. - Rear yard 15 ft. 12 ft.' - Side or rear yard abutting more restrictive zoning district N/A - Distance between property line and front of garage 20 ft. 22.5 ft. - Side Yard Setbacks for Flag Lots [TDC 10 ft. N/A 18.420.050 A 4 e ' Maximum Height 30 ft. Can be met Minimum Landscape Requirement • Adjustment required. DEVELOPMENT ADJUSTMENT - APPROVAL STANDARDS: Section 18.370.020.B.1.b provides that up to a 20% reduction of the dimensional standards for the side yard setbacks required in the base zone may be approved as a Type I Development Adjustment. Section 18.370.020.13.2, Approval Criteria, provides that a development adjustment shall be granted if there is a demonstration of compliance with all of the applicable standards: A demonstration that the adjustment requested is the least required to achieve the desired effect; NOTICE OF TYPE I DECISION VAR2003-000351FIELD REAR YARD SETBACK ADJUSTMENT PAGE 2 OF 3 The applicant has requested a 20% reduction to the required 15-foot rear yard setback. This would reduce the setback from 15 feet to 12 feet. The "desired effect" is to allow sufficient area to reconstruct the existing deck and extend it around to the side of the house where it can be widened for more recreational use. Due to the placement of the existing house 16 feet from the rear property line, the proposed walkway between the existing back door and new wider deck area would only be 4 feet wide with the adjustment. This is the minimum comfortable width for a walkway. As mentioned in the applicant's narrative, an alternate door location is not feasible due to the interior layout of the house. The adjustment will result in the preservation of trees, if trees are present in the development area; No trees are impacted by the proposal. Therefore, this standard does not apply. The adjustment will not impede adequate emergency access to the site; and The adjustment will affect the rear yard setback only. Emergency access from the street fronting the property will not be affected. Therefore, this criterion is satisfied. There is not a reasonable alternative to the adjustment, which achieves the desired effect. Due to the placement of the existing house, and the interior configuration of the rooms, the requested adjustment is the only reasonable alternative to allow access to a deck with reasonable square footage for recreational purposes. The existing deck serves primarily as an egress and stair landing, with the stairs leading away from the more useable portion of the property. The applicant's proposal offers a good compromise by replacing the deck that currently encroaches into the rear yard setback and extending it to a location where it can be widened outside the setback limits. SECTION V. PROCEDURE AND APPEAL INFORMATION A rear yard setback Adjustment is a Type I procedure. As such, the Director's decision is final on the date it is mailed or otherwise provided to the applicant, whichever occurs first. The Director's decision may not be appealed locally and is the final decision of the City. THIS DECISION IS FINAL ON MAY 20, 2003, AND BECOMES EFFECTIVE ON MAY 21, 2003.

The property address is 14170 SW 116`" Terrace and is identified as tax lot 8400 on Assessor's Map 25-1-10AB. The subject property and all adjoining properties are zoned R-4.5 having a rear setback requirement of 15 feet. Presently there is a single family residence sited on the property with the back of the house being about 16 feet from the rear property line. There is a substantial crawl space under the house on the back side due to the slope of the lot, resulting in the first floor being approximately 12-15 feet above grade on the rear side. The door from the first floor of the house exits onto a small deck 4 feet wide and about 10 feet long with a long flight of stairs running to the back yard along the side of the house. It is our desire to construct a larger deck that we can use for recreational purposes. The attached photographs show the location of the small existing deck and the site plan depicts the proposed deck along with other pertinent information as required. We are requesting that the setback be reduced to 12 feet under Section 18.370.020 of the Tigard Development Code. A reduction up to 20% of the dimensional standards for the rear setback shall be granted if there is a demonstration of compliance with all of the applicable standards. A demonstration that the adjustment requested is the least required to achieve the desired effect; The present deck already encroaches into the setback to a point between 12 and 13 feet from the rear property line. The proposed deck will not extend any further into the setback but instead will wrap around the side of the house. Because of the door being on the rear of the house it is necessary for the deck to extent several feet out from the house and into the setback. It will only be 4 feet wide however which is the practical minimum width for the walkway portion leading from the door to the main deck area. Relocating the door to one of the walls adjacent to the deck is not practical due to the interior layout. Y r • The adjustment will result in the preservation of trees, if trees are present in the development area; No trees will be impacted by the adjustment or the construction of the proposed deck. The adjustment will not impede emergency access to the site; The proposed deck is on the rear of the house. There is no vehicular access to the back of the house or the adjoining property along the rear property line. Emergency access to the site is from the street along the front side of the house. Access by foot to the rear of the house will not be impeded in any manner by approval of the adjustment. There is not a reasonable alternative to the adjustment which achieves the desired effect; It is our desire to construct a deck for recreational purposes. Our lot is smaller than most in the subdivision due to the configuration of the original property. The neighboring properties within the subdivision either have decks or the ability to build one without having to go through the adjustment procedure. We would like to access the deck from the house itself. The rear exit currently opens onto a small deck that serves no practical purpose except as a landing for the stairs. Our proposed plan is the only practical one that minimizes the impact to the setback and still allows us to enjoy the same activities as those shared by all of the.surrounding properties A final consideration, while not a specific requirement for approval, is safety. The present stairs are very long and steep with a concrete landing at the bottom. A fall down them could cause severe injury or even death. We have two small children who use these stairs for access to the backyard. When it rains they can be slippery and we are concerned for their safety as well as that of ourselves and guests. We plan to remove these stairs and build a new flight from the deck. Because of the grade of the lot, the deck will be lower to the ground with the new stairs being significantly shorter and safer. Thank you for your consideration of our request, if you require additional materials please let me know. Sincerely, a Scott Field • - ~'^444'.~ "rte.`... °~Y.
