PETITION
1. Motion to reconsider a variance requested by Lorraine B. Kinsey of Section j
30-41-3(B)2.b of the Roanoke County Zoning Ordinance to reduce the
minimum side yard setback from 10 feet to 0 feet. The purpose of this request
is to construct a detached carport located at 2820 Embassy Drive, Catawba
Magisterial District.
Mrs. Kinsey informed staff prior to this meeting that she desired to install a
detached carport towards the southwest (rear) corner of her residence. On
May 21, 2003,her request to reconstruct a carport beside the house was
denied on a 4— 1 decision. The new proposal would involve an approximate
20 foot-22 foot extension of the existing driveway and should reduce
visibility of the proposed structure.

seconded the motion which was approved with the following vote:
AYES: Karr, Thomas, Jones, McNeil
