<br />for a driveway Variance of 2 feet 2 inches (from a 20-foot to a 17-foot 10-inch
<br />driveway), and a front setback Variance of 5 feet (from 25 feet to 20 feet), There
<br />were no further cotmments from the audience, and Vice-Chairman Landon closed the
<br />public hearing. Mr. Falea was called on for the staff report, and said the staff
<br />had looked over the plane and found that because parking had been provided in the
<br />rear and because the facade will be entirely landscaping and lawn, the 5-foot eet•
<br />back Variance constitutes a minor matter in this development, and the 20-foot set-
<br />back would be adequate to the staff. Likewise, the 2-foot 2-inch Variance from a
<br />20-foot driveway leaves adequate apace for two corn to pass. The second story will
<br />overhang the driveway. Mr, Falea said the staff recommends the Variance be granted.

<br />by Commissioner Wipfli, the following resolution was unanimously adopted:
