BACKGROUND: Applicant proposes to modify their existing driveway at 149

(emphasis added):
(f) Maximum driveway width at the property line and through the right-
of-way shall be 20 feet. Maximum driveway width for circular drives shall be 12
feet, and circular drives shall only be permitted on lots having at least 100 foot
frontage.

circular drive using pervious pavers (see Attachment 2). Estimated impervious surface
coverage of the right of way with the new driveway is less than 30%. Limit per City Code
Section 19-7 is 50%.
The proposed driveway was evaluated by the AB Tree Coordinator and meets City
requirements with no mitigation requirement.
BUDGET: No budget issues .
RECOMMENDATION: Consider approval of requested waiver to the City Code Section
19-7 requirements.
