For a carport type structure these setbacks are measured from the posts supporting the structure, UDC Article 6.4.5.B.2 unless the roof overhang is greater that 2’-0”, UDC Article 6.4.5.D.2.a.(2). As it appears that the overhangs are greater than 2’-0”, show the allowed 2’-0” overhang on the plan and provide the applicable perimeter yard setbacks. Once provided additional comments maybe forth coming. **The previous Board of Adjustment comment is still applicable. The proposed attached shade structure with solar does not meet the minimum front street setback, 20’-0” (UDC Article 6.4.5.C.1.a). 2. Until the Board of Adjustment is approved Zoning cannot approve this plan. Also, as it appears that the proposed structure will not meet the minimum front street setback, 20’-0” (UDC Article 6.4.5.C.1.a) the reduced setback can be addressed during the variance process but until the comments above are addressed correctly Zoning cannot provide the required comments to submit you variance request.
