3a. Variance for 8901 Stanlen Road
Applicant: Barry Novak
Case No: 23-06-VAR
Mr. Morrison presented the report.
Commissioner Youngquist asked if the 1981 decision had the correct set back, would
this be an issue today or is this because the owners are adding on to the current
construction. Mr. Morrison stated the variance is required for both reasons noted – the
setback and the living space being added below the current structure.
Acting Chair Eckholm opened the public hearing.
Barry Novak, the owner of the home, stated he was available for questions.
No questions were asked.
Acting Chair Eckholm closed the public hearing.

rescind city council resolution 6975 and approve resolution granting a variance to allow
a 7.7-foot rear yard setback at 8901 Stanlen Rd, with conditions noted in the staff
