The setback is nine (9) feet (See Exhibit B). Both of these setbacks complied with zoning regulations in force at the time of the building's construction. The setbacks from the side (north) and rear property lines will not be an issue in regards to this request. In late 1986, Jake Harris expanded its facility with the addition of an approximately 4,850 square foot storage building (#2). In order to comply with the parking requirements of the Zoning Ordinance then in force (#780), eight (8) parking spaces were dedicated (See Exhibit B).
