Eagle council hears request for 44-foot-tall single-family home above height limit
The Planning and Zoning Commission tied 2-2 on April 20, which counts as a recommendation of denial. The City Council heard the request May 26; no decision is on file. The 7,990-square-foot house would sit on 3.07 acres and exceed the 35-foot limit.
About this application
Jordan Devey wants to build a single-family home on a 3.07-acre lot at 19745 N. Smokeys Draw Place in the Avimor community. The home would be about 44 feet 6 inches tall, taller than the 35-foot limit, because a daylight basement requires digging that lowers the ground level from which height is measured. It is a two-story house with a daylight basement and about 7,990 square feet of floor area.
Jordan Devey, represented by Becky McKay with Engineering Solutions, LLP, is requesting conditional use permit approval for a waiver of the 35-foot (35') maximum building height for a single-family residence. The 3.07-acre site is located within Avimor Development (Lot 70, Block 24, of Avimor Subdivision No. 6), approximately 3,100-feet northeast of the intersection of North McLeod Way and West Creeks Edge Drive, at 19745 North Smokeys Draw Place.
