July 19, 2022 #2 James Dyer * 6150 State Line Road The Dyers are proposing a new fountain at the rear of their property. This project was continued at the July 5th meeting so the plan could be revised to eliminate the variance. Summary of Property: • Character Area: Neighborhood Estates • Location of Common Green Space: Front • Any Special Frontages: None Summary of Project: The proposed fountain is located in the southwest corner of the property. It consists of a low brick basin with a taller back wall with waterspouts. The whole structure stands 5 feet tall. Ordinance Compliance: The proposed project is in violation of City Code Section 5-121.C that requires accessory structures, such as fountains, to be a minimum of 10 feet from the rear yard property line. The proposed fountain is 5’-11” from the rear property line. A variance of 4’-1” is required. Design Guideline Review: Section 2.7.3.A on page 106 recommends that LS-1 and 2 properties have a greenspace no less than 60% of the lot area. This recommendation has not been met. Greenspace Review: • Lot area 15,525 sf (calculated using property survey) • Existing non-greenspace area 7,650.72 sf • Existing greenspace 7,874.28 sf = 50.72% • Non-greenspace being added 104.89 sf • Remaining greenspace 7,769.39 sf = 50.04% July 19, 2022 #3 Mike & Lori Engle 2710 West 66th Terrace The Engles are proposing a new outdoor fireplace on their existing patio. Outdoor fireplaces are substantial construction matters as defined by Code Section 5-103.78 and 5-103.122 and was noticed as such. This project was continued at the July 5th meeting due to lack of representation. Summary of Property: • Character Area: Neighborhood Estates • Location of Common Green Space: Front • Any Special Frontages: None Summary of Project: The proposed stone and brick fireplace stands 10’-3” tall. It is located at the northeast edge of an existing patio. The plans indicate that the exact location has not been determined. That will need to be defined before the ARB can act on the project. Ordinance Compliance: There are no conflicts between the proposed project and the City of Mission Hills Code of Ordinances. Design Guideline Review: There are no conflicts between the proposed project and the City of Mission Hills Design Guidelines. July 19, 2022 #4 Lyndse & Prentice Hanes * 6300 Belinder Avenue The Hanes are returning the ARB with changes to their previously approved fence project. This project was continued at the July 5th meeting at the owner’s request. Summary of Property: • Character Area: Suburban • Location of Common Green Space: Front • Any Special Frontages: None Summary of Project: When originally approved, the fence was to be located at the 50-foot platted setback line along 63rd street. The fence was instead installed 15’-6” into the platted side yard. The Hanes are requesting approval for the as-built location. Ordinance Compliance: The project is in violation of a platted setback. A variance of 15’-6” is required. Design Guideline Review: There are no conflicts between the proposed project and the City of Mission Hills Design Guidelines. * A variance is required. July 19, 2022
