>Charles Stone wants a variance to shorten the required 9′ x 28′ parking pad to 9′ x 21′.The code requires that a parking space be at least 9′ x 18′ and located outside of front setback, which is 10′. The pad would need to be 28′. His design would create a pad 11′ deep from sidewalk- hardly room for a car, and likely obstruction of sidewalk (unless a Cooper Mini parks there) This would virtually assure that an automobile becomes a dominant feature in the front yard, near -or into- sidewalk.
