July 9, 2026 Board of Adjustment Meeting

The City of Bettendorf Board of Adjustment held a meeting on July 9, 2026, to consider a variance request for a property at 2710 State Street. The variance sought to reduce the required front yard setback from 20 feet to 5 feet to allow construction of a 30 by 50-foot garage bay addition. Staff recommended approval, noting the addition would improve neighborhood character and increase processing capacity without negatively impacting the area. The board approved the variance with a condition requiring a screening fence along 27th Street. The property owner spoke in favor, emphasizing the need to modernize the facility, improve aesthetics, and increase business capacity. The board expressed support for the project and its positive impact on the community.
