Finally, the subject property is not the only townhouse unit in the building block with the subject property that will encroach into the rear yard and natural state buffer. As detailed above, the subject property is one of six (6) attached townhouse units in the building block. The two (2) townhouse units located on each end of the building include a similar 2nd floor deck that extends out from the rear façade. With the exception of the townhouse unit at the southernmost end of the building block, the exterior decks are all within the required 50- foot rear yard setback and natural state buffer. In the case of the townhouse at the southernmost end, however, the deck extends out approximately 10-feet and encroaches into both the setback and buffer, similar to what is being proposed by the applicant.
