RED: Variance application for 134 Newtown thrive �
U
M
To: The Planning and Zoning Commission �
L
We are writing this letter in the hope of being granted a variance in order to build a Three d
Season Sunroorn at 1.34 Newtown Drives in Buffalo Grove. We understand that our property includes a o
30-foot setback and there is not enough room to build our sunroorn without encroaching into our rear C
Cn
1
yard. According to our builder, the plans would only encroach our setback by 9 feet. Most of the
sunre.orn Would be built on our- existing deck. The builder would drill into the concrete patio to lay the �
proper foundation pursuant to code. this sunroom would by 1.4 feet by 11 feet with the 14 feet side P
being attached to the back of the house. Thus, it would only extend about 11 feet beyond the house. w
The roof would match the roof on our house and the siding would match the Siding on our house. U
's
A denial of this variance would create a hardship for us. As this commission knows, the summer
c
season in Illinois is very short. -This Three Season Sunroom Would maker it possible to enjoy a longer 0
summer season in the room even when the weather elements are less than ideal. are enjoyment of the M
season would begin earlier in the spring and extend later through the fall. We would also be protected Q
from the brutal mosge.rito season and from the numerous hornets and bee's that seem to always £
0
interfere with Our ability to spend meaningful time with friends and family on our concrete patio. The °
sunroorn would allow us to spcmd more time doing just that. In addition, we believe that this sunroom
CO
could add values to our home which would of�course benefit our- neighbors when it comes time for them �
to selltheir homes.
0
a
0
Thus, we are respectfully asking for a variance approval from this Zoning Commission in order to a`
build our Three Season Sunroon'7. This proposed variation would riot alter the essential character of the
neighborhood in that it is to be built entirely in our back yard on our concrete patio and it only extends
out about eleven feet from the house. Thank you for your time and attention. o

Your Evidentiary Statement:According to,our builder,our plans would only encroach
our setback by 7.77 feet. The entire sunroorn would be built on top of an already
existing concrete patio.The builderwould drill into the concrete patio to laythe proper
foundation pursuant to code.The sunroom planswould measure 14feet by 11 feet with 0
the 14 feet side running parallel to the back of the house.Thus,the sunroom would only
extend!out beyond the house 11 feet.This will not alter the essential character of the
neighborhood in that it barely sticks out from the house and it doesn't even extend out >
to the end of the concrete patio.Since it will be built to match the siding and roof on
the house,it will blend into the main part of the house and'again,not altertheessential 0)
