Staff recommended denial of the variance for reasons outlined in the attached staff report (Attachment #1). The Board of 1 Adjustments denied the variance request due to the fact that approval of this application would set a precedent in the neighborhood (Attachment #2). Councilman Wing pointed out that the city recently denied a similar application in the Fox Hollow 1 subdivision (Attachment #3), and to be consistent, this application must be denied. 1 The applicant has appealed the decision of the Board and requested that the City Council review this application. Staff maintains its position by recommending denial of Variance #85 -16 for reasons 1 outlined in the staff report. ATTACHMENTS 1 1. Staff report dated February 10, 1992. 2.

The Chaparral Development Agreement specifically states that the front, rear, and side yard setback standards shall be maintained without the need for a variance. 1 BACKGROUND On August 5, 1985, the Board of Adjustments and Appeals approved a 4 foot variance to the 30 foot front yard setback for the construction of a 10' x 16' deck on the eastern side of a twin home (Attachment #3). ANALYSIS The applicant owns the easterly half of a twin home. The lot is a 1 corner lot, with Kerber Boulevard to the east and Pontiac Lane to the north. Since this is a corner lot, both yards that front on a street are considered front yards and have a 30 foot setback. The applicant is requesting a 6 foot variance to the required 30 foot front yard setback to enclose a deck. This deck was approved by the Board of Adjustments and Appeals on August 5, 1985. The proposed porch will be located off of the second floor, in the front yard facing Kerber Boulevard. The home is setback 34 feet and the deck was approved to be setback 24 feet from Kerber Boulevard (east). The applicant could enclose a portion of the deck and meet the required setback. A second option is to extend the railings hifher to act as a wind break and a sound barrier. Allowing the entire deck to be enclosed represents an intensification of an existing variance. Through a field survey, staff noticed that all the houses in that area met the required setbacks. Approval of this variance would create a precedent and would be considered an intensification of an existing variance. The Board of Adjustments and Appeals shall not recommend and the City Council shall not grant a variance unless they find the ,following facts: a. That the literal enforcement of this chapter would cause undue hardship. Undue hardship means that the property cannot be put to reasonable use because of its size, physical surroundings, shape or topography. Reasonable use includes a use made by a majority of comparable property within 500 feet of it. The intent of this provision is not to allow a proliferation of variances but to recognize that and develop neighborhoods pre- existing standards exist. Variances that , 1 Naab Variance February 10, 1992 Page 3 blend with these pre- existing standards without departing ' downward from them meet this criteria. * The property is currently being utilized as a twin home which was the intent for that portion of the subdivision. Staff surveyed the area within 500 feet and found that all structures meet the required setback. Approval of this variance will set a precedent in the neighborhood. b. The conditions upon which a petition for a variance is based are not generally applicable to other property within the same ' zoning classification. * The conditions upon which this petition for a variance is based is not generally applicable to other properties ' within the same zoning classification. c. The purpose of the variation is not based upon a desire to increase the value or income potential of the parcel of land. * The purpose of this variation is not based upon a desire ' to increase the value or income potential of the parcel. d. The alleged difficulty or hardship is not a self created hardship. * The difficulty or hardship is self - created. The applicant was aware of how busy Kerver Boulevard was, yet still chose to build the deck facing the street. There is a large buildable area at the south side of the home where a porch could be built. The westerly half of the ' twin home has a deck on the south side. The applicant still has the option of building a similar structure as his neighbor. ' e. The granting of the variance will not be detrimental to the public welfare or injurious to other land or improvements in the neighborhood in which the parcel is located. * Granting of the variance will not be detrimental to the public welfare or injurious to other land or improvements in the neighborhood in which the parcel of land is located. f. The proposed variation will not impair an adequate supply of light and air to adjacent property or substantially increase the congestion of the public streets or increases the danger of fire or endanger the public safety or substantially diminish or impair property values within the neighborhood. 11 Naab Variance February 10, 1992 Page 4 1 * The proposed variance will not impair an adequate supply of light and air to adjacent property or substantially increase the congestion of the public streets. Approval of this variance will set a precedent in the neighborhood. It also represents an intensification of an existing variance. There are other options the applicant can exercise that have been mentioned in the report. RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends the Board of Adjustments and Appeals adopt the following motion: "The Board of Adjustments and Appeals deny Variance Request #85 -16 for reasons outlined in the report." 1 ATTACHMENTS 1.

CHAPARRAL ASSOCIATION ' SUBJECT: Enclosure of existing deck ' We would like to submit for your approval the pr&iiminary sketch of a four season enclosure of our existing deck, which will also have to be presented to Chanhassen for a building permit. The decision to do this is for four valid reasons: 1. We can hardly use the deck as it is because of the south wind in the summer months. As you know, we have put 1/4" plastic sheet on bothe the north • and south railings to help - and it has. These are removable 'del wing nuts for painting and cleaning. 2. The noise level from Kerber Blvd is so bad you cannot carryon a decent conversation on the deck. It is constant. We feel that the enclosure will do a great de to buffer this, which we still get in our living room with the patio door shut. 3. Our l iving room is too small for `family' visits or more than two other couples. An extra 10 x 12 for ' spring, fall and winter will help. 4. As we plan to tie into the existing roof line, we feel that the way it will be built will be first class and make a very nice impression for people who enter the Chaparral area at Pontiac Lane. ' Notheng can be found in our by -laws that refers to deck enclosures so it seems we may he the first to determine if it will be okay with the association. Thank You. 1 11 1 1 `" NEW CONCEPTS 1 4 .

She explained that in the past, ( this contract has been upheld and no variances have been granted. She state that there is adequate area in the rear for the size of deck proposed. Olsen stated that the applicant has an existing sliding door on the east side of the home. She stated that the applicant's neighbor on the west half of twin home built a walkway from their sliding door on the side to the rear of the home where the deck was built. She stated that by doing this, all setbacks were met. Planning staff is proposing that the applicant can do the same. She noted that it is common in twin home developments to have both decks at the rear and to be separated by a solid wall.

The applicant is proposing to construct a 10' x 16' deck, off of the second floor, in the front yard facing Kerber Boulevard. The home is setback 36 feet from Kerber, meeting the 30 foot setback. The applicant has six feet for expansion of his structure. The Chaparral Development Contract specifically states that the developer acknowledges the setback and that no variances will be necessary (Attachment #1). In the past, this contract has been upheld and no variances have been granted. Attachment #2 shows the area where a deck could be constructed. There is adequate area in the rear for the size of deck proposed. The applicant has an existing sliding door on the east side of the home. The applicant's neighbor (west half of twin home) built a walkway from their sliding door on the side to the rear of the home where the deck was built. By doing this, all set- backs were met. Planning staff is proposing that the applicant can do the same. Although, it is common in twin home develop- ments to have both decks at the rear and to be separated by a solid wall. The Zoning Ordinance states the following facts must occur before a variance can be granted: The Board of Adjustments and Appeals shall not recommend and the ' Council shall not grant, a variance unless they find the following fact: 1. That there are special circumstances or conditions affecting the land, building or use referred to in the application for variance. 2. That the granting of the variance is necessary for the preser- vation and enjoyment of substantial property rights. 1 3. That the granting of the application will not be materially deterimental to the public welfare or injurious to property in the area adjacent to the property for which the variance is sought. 4. That the granting of the variance will be in keeping with the spirit and intent of this ordinance. 1 I/ Naab Variance August 5, 1985 Page 3 1 There are no special circumstances affecting the property. The property owner can still enjoy his property rights and construct a deck at a different location meeting the required setbacks. The 30 foot front yard setback is provided for the public welfare by maintaining separation from the street right -of -way and the residence. Granting the variance would be contrary to the spirit and intent of the Zoning Ordinance. The Board of Adjustment and Appeals in recommending and the City Council in granting a variance may impose conditions to insure compliance and to protect adjacent properties. ATTACHMENTS 1.

STAFF PRESENT: Paul Krauss, Planning Director and Sharmin Al -Jaff, Planner I. 1 The meeting was called to order at 6:30 p.m. A VARIANCE REQUEST FOR A 6 FOOT FRONT YARD VARIANCE SETBACK TO ENCLOSE A DECK AND CONVERT IT INTO A THREE SEASON PORCH ON PROPERTY ZONED PUD. PLANNED UNIT DEVELOPMENT AND LOCATED AT 801 PONTIAC LANE. PAUL NAAB. Al -Jaff presented the staff report. 1 Johnson made a motion to open the public hearing. Paul Naab, the applicant, complained that the level of the noise and the wind that blows from the direction of Kerber Boulevard is extremely annoying. He stated that he had received approval from the Chaparral Homeowners Association to enclose the deck. He noted that architecturally the result will be compatible with the existing house as the same materials will be used on the exterior walls. He stated that the location of the existing deck is the best place as it is easily accessible from the living room. Virginia Harris questioned why this application is a variance. 1 Paul Krauss pointed out that in the Chanhassen Zoning Ordinance, intensification of an existing variance is a variance. 1 Wing stated that approval of this application would set a precedent. He stated that city recently denied a similar variance in the Fox Chase Subdivision. He stated that for the sake of consistency, this variance should be denied. Johnson shared Wing's concerns. 1 Wing made a motion to deny the variance. Johnson seconded the motion. Johnson and Wing voted to deny, Chmiel abstained and the motion carried. 1 A VARIANCE FOR A 22 FOOT FRONT YARD AND SHORELAND SETBACK VARIANCE. AND 6% SIDE YARD SETBACK VARIANCE.

All voted in favor and the motion carried. CO FRONT YARO SETBACK VARIANCE REQUEST FOR CONSTRUCTION OF A PORCH AND DECK, 180 II FOX HOLLOW DRIVE. STEVE AND SHARON PETERSON. Paul Krauss: Mr. Mayor, the applicants are appealing a denial of a variance II request from the Board of Adjustment. The request calls for a 12 foot front yard setback variance from 20 feet down to 8 feet for a lot located in the Fox Hollow area. This area was developed as a PUD and we've frankly had a long history of problems with the residential PUD's relative to undersized lots and 11 variances that stem from building on undersized lots. I'd add that we're looking at reappraising the question of residential PUO's from the Planning Commission and looking at tying up the loose ends so we don't have problems with I this in the future but unfortunately we're left with a legacy of some difficult situations. Now the normal front yard setback in single family districts is 30 feet. This is a corner lot and the ordinance provides that il corner lots have two front yards. In reality there's only one door but from the ordinance standpoint there's two front yards. What they did in the PUD is, in recognizing that we had smaller lots they lowered the setback from 30 feet to 20 feet. The applicants are looking to construct a porch and a deck into that 20 foot setback. It's outlined in red on the west side of the'home. There would be an 8 foot setback from the new porch to the right -of -way line. It also intrudes a little bit into, there's a 10 foot utility easement, that dashed line 11 over there. Near as we can tell, and we haven't been able to locate the final documentation on this plat, there are no city utilities in that easement area. The sewer and the water run down the street. What we're not sure of is we don't know if there's any gas or electric or telephone lines in there. There probably II are. They typically bracket the area. If there's any favorable action on this tonight, we'd ask that you make it contingent upon using that, having the owners call up that Minnesota One call and verifying where these utilities are because II obviously we don't want to build into a gas main or whatever else happens to be there. As I said, this is one of those situations that becomes rather difficult. We do have probably 3 or 4 residential PUD's where these sorts of I things...Further compounding this is the fact that the patio door is facing this area. Now for the last year and a half or so we've been reviewing building permits and refusing to allow patio doors where there's no likelihood of getting a deck, and this is something that we probably would catch today but nobody did II back when the home was built. I've heard the owners speak before. I believe that they were led to believe by the builder that they could get a deck in this place which has also happened before. With that, again we had recommended II denial to the Board of Adjustments. We didn't find a neighborhood precedent for this. The Board of Adjustment did recommend denial. We're carrying that recommendation forward. I'd also add too that Brian Batzli from our Planning Commission wrote a letter of support for this. That was intended to get into the packet and I don't believe it did but he was in favor of granting the applicant's request. With that we are recoamending denial. Mayor Chmiel: Is the applicant proposed to address thq situation? I was out there and I looked at this home. Actually from the edge of the house to the 1 9 il City Council Meeting - Aucust 26, 1991 curb there's approximately 30 feet. Setback requirement is, well Paul maybe you can explain that. I sat down and discussed this with Paul and I felt that there was some potential in seeing this go in. It's a little different situation. It goes into a cul -de -sac. It's not a continuing on street so the blending of the appearance I don't think would be quite as bad either. But maybe with that Paul why don't you just. Paul Krauss: I sketched his up after having a conversation with the Mayor just so I could lay out for everybody the way this thing lays. In this case north is that way. The cul -de -sac exposure is right here. Mayor Chmiel: Show them the front of the house. Where's north? , Paul Krauss: North, yes. I'm upside down. North is this way. I pointed in the right direction. It just came out backwards. I knew where it vas. The 1 existing building wall is this black line here. There's a 20 foot setback to the property line. The property line is this red line with the PL next to it. Again, this 20 feet is consistent with the ordinance. The PUD ordinance that was approved here. Normally it's a 30 foot setback. In this case it's 20. The new deck that wants to be added, they are looking to build is out here. What this red area is the utility easement and I'll highlight that a little better. That area is that 10 foot utility easement and it's the deck and the porch actually protrude into it a little bit. The outside of this red line here is the right-of-way line. It's the property line itself. Now the Mayor was specifically asking me, where is the curb line here. The curb line is 8 feet beyond that. So effectively right now it's 30 feet from the closest building wall to the curb line. Normally we have an 8 to 10 foot boulevard in the street. We use it for utilities and snow piling and everything else. I don't know how much this clarifies it. What we would have remaining from, if it's IF built as proposed. Here's the outside building wall. Here's the curb line. There'd be 18 feet. 8 feet to the property line. It's 18 feet to the curb. So visually when you're looking at a street and you're looking at the curb and not where the property line really is. Is there anything else I can add on that? Mayor Chmiel: No. I guess what I look at is the total amount of distance to I/ what the city boulevard section is to where basically utilities go in. They don't go in on a private property per se. With that maybe I'd best let the property owner can indicate their concern. 1 Councilman Mason: The deck would be 8 feet from the curb or 18 feet? Paul Krauss: The deck will be 18 feet from the curb. 8 feet from the property 1 line. Mayor Chmiel: Right. Which is well within the requirement of the setbacks. 1 Right? Paul Krauss: The required setback is 20, yeah. 1 • Councilman Workman: That's kind of confusing. Paul Krauss: It's the best I could do. 1 10 1 11 • City Council Meeting - August 26, 1991 1 Mayor Chmiel: Yes. Please state your name and your address. Sharon Peterson: Sharon Peterson, 180 Fox Hollow Drive. I just have a couple of things to say. I had a big long speech at the other hearing. The minimum lot size in Chanhassen is 15,000 square feet but because we live in a PUO, Rottlund Construction was allowed to put our house on a 10,500 square foot lot. We don't feel that it's fair to relax the rules for the builder and then impose the setbacks for a 15,000 square foot lot on us. Also, the amount of house that the City allowed Rottlund to build on that lot would not accommodate a walkout. The only other place for a second exit to our house is on that side of the house. We don't feel that we should be penalized before the City's only been checking the plans for sliding glass doors for 2 years. Our house was built in 1986 and we're not builders. We had no idea about any of these rules. I also have a petition signed by all of the immediate neighbors saying that they have absolutely no objection to the deck or the porch. The immediate neighbors being anyone who will have to look at it every day or drive by it every day. I also have pictures of the house for those of you who weren't able to go past the property. Was anyone but the Mayor there? Councilman Mason: I drove by it. 1 Sharon Peterson: I also have a copy of the letter that Brian Batzli wrote if you would like to see that. Mayor Chmiel: Yes, I've seen it. Maybe if someone else didn't get it in their packet. Do you wish to say something sir? Steve Peterson: No. I'm just saying everybody knows our problem. I have t nothing to say. 1 Mayor Chmiel: You're there for support. 1 Sharon Peterson: I think we're done. Mayor Chmiel: Okay, thank you. Any discussion? Councilman Mason: I've got angry notes written all over this wondering how, let me backtrack a little bit. When Lundgren Bros. was in here talking about what they do, didn't terry Forbord say something about they give a packet to each homeowner about what they can and can't do? This comes up so often that builders, in my humble opinion are clearly trying to jack people around in some instances. Not all builders. I'm not going to make a blanket comment. Before I get into this specific issue, what can the City do so we don't have to put up with this kind of stuff? I think we're starting in the right direction by reviewing that. And I'm not yelling at you Paul or even asking necessarily for an answer from you but these things come up all the time and as sitting up here I feel like I'm damned if I do and damned if I don't. I want to know, should we be, as a Council, considering some kind of action to force builders to be a little bit more responsible? And if so, how so? Mayor Chmiel: I think we tried that and unfortunately we can't be there on each 1 closing of the property. It gets to be difficult policing but some instances I think through may be our inspection department can advise and oftentimes maybe 1 ' 11 • *City Council Meeting - August 26, 1991 The one that I think of most recently in this regard and Judy and Leigh Colby on Laredo. Go all the way down Laredo where it ends in a circle with a cul -de -sac. They had kind of a pie shaped lot and we had this same thing. What was their front yard and what was their side yard and they were probably less into Laredo, they weren't into the easement. Paul Krauss: No. Councilman Workman: And there was a big pine tree situation there and 1 everything else and we said no. So I don't know what solutions. I did drive out there before the Board of Adjustments meeting last time. It does really, and I just remember what the Colby one we discussed this side yard, front yard issue at very great detail and for us to sake this a side yard and not a front yard or whatever it is, it's really tough. It's a whole lot of house and a whole lot of deck and a little lot. Very obvious place. That is very difficult for me to approve just because of everything that is backed up. And I know people hate to hear that because it doesn't sound like you can be flexible but. Remember the Colby's? Mayor Chmiel: Yes. I remember the one you're talking about. Councilman Workman: You know I don't know that the Peterson's could build something smaller because an 18 foot wide deck, and I used to just always hate that when some past Council members used to tell people how to build their garage and decks and everything else. That's not my place. However, I just did it. I don't know if it could be smaller. Obviously if the deck were smaller, then the screened room would maybe . have to be smaller and that might make it not worthwhile for the Petersons. I don't know what the solutions are. I'm not i prepared again after the Board of Adjustments to discuss to put that thing that close to the road. Mayor Chmiel: Well, Richard. Do you have anything? Councilman Wing: I also went out and looked at it and I noted that it's been denied by staff. Recommended for denial by staff and the Board of Adjustments. Doors have long been an issue and I'm convinced that we've dealt with that issue through inspections. And this is kind of a leftover where we have porch doors going nowhere. I guess I didn't like Brian's letter. I think that he discusses the intent of the PUD and the PUD is to allow variances and allow us to be lax on the variances. It kind of says we're going to go from what's normal and put 8 pounds of potatoes into a 5 pound bag which is okay. That's the intent of the PUD. And this particular one, if I can stay with layman's terms, I kind of see us trying to go with 10 pounds of potatoes into a 5 pound bag. So to me the project exceeds the needs created by the doors. Had there been an intent to come in here and get some access from those doors into a deck and a 6 foot deck coming out of the atrium doors and then tucking back into the house as we were shown earlier and cutting the deck back down to 6 and 4. Down to 12 foot along the house area itself. I think it's a major project that exceeds the needs. I think it's appearance is going to have a major impact on that street. I look at Lake Minnewashta where they allowed someone to put in a swimming pool and a tennis court. To this day I'm wondering who allowed that. I think this project clearly exceeds the needs existing by those existing door, so I guess I would tend to uphold the Board of Adjustments. I would have been such more 14 • City Council Meeting - Aqgust 26, 1991 comfortable had this been a small deck just to set access from those doors. But not a major 12 x 12 screened porch going to a 17 foot deck. I think that exceeds the needs and clearly impacts that corner and that lot beyond it's limits. II ' Mayor Chmiel: Okay. What I would like to do is to make a motion to approve the front yard variance request and appeal the decision of the Board of Adjustments and Appeals. Is there a second? Without a second the motion fails. Councilman Wing: I'd like to sake a motion denying this particular request. Mayor Chaiel: Is there a second? Councilman Workaan: Second. Mayor Chmiel: Any discussion? Roger Knutson: Mr. Mayor. So the record is clear. The basis for your motion of denial is the Planning report and the Minutes of the Board of Adjustments and Appeals. Councilman Wing: Would you repeat that Roger? Roger Knutson: Is the basis of your motion the Planning report and the recommendation of the Board of Adjustments and Appeals? So the record is clear. II Mayor Chmiel: Okay, clarification. It does include staff's report. Councilaan Wing moved, Councilaan Workman seconded to deny Variance 191 -7 based on the reasons outlined in the planning report and the Minutes of the Board of Adjustments and Appeals dated July 8. 1991. All voted in favor except Mayor Chaiel who opposed and the motion carried with a vote of 3 to 1. CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT AMENDMENT REGARDING THE FENCE SCREENING I G HEIGHT FROMfl FT. TO 15 FT.. 7851 PARK DRIVE. LAKESHORE EQUIPMENT. STEVE WILLETTE. 11 Paul Krauss: Mr. Mayor, in 1988 the City issued a conditional use permit for Lakeshore Equipment. Outdoor storage was a part and parcel of this request and • it was an issue at the time it was approved and there was a fair amount of testimony and emphasis placed on it. As a result an 8 foot high wooden fence was required and ultimately was installed. The City Council also required that no stored materials be placed higher than 8 feet to keep the visibility of 1 materials down. In 1990 ay staff was doing regular site visits for conditional use permits, which we've begun to do on an annual basis and we noticed that this fence had fallen in one area. I believe it was the result of a fairly heavy wind storm. We did ask the owner to restore the fence and we did notify his of the 8 foot height limitation. The applicant obtained a building perait and we put notice of the limitation on that. In October the building inspector went 1 out there to update the project or do the final inspection, I don't recall which, but he noticed that the fence had been constructed as high as 1S foot in some places.

I/ 2000 LAND USE PLAN: Low Density Residential II 1 Peterson Variance 1 July 8, 1991 Page 2 1 BACKGROUND Fox Hollow 3rd Addition was approved by the City Council on February 3, 1986. It consisted of 3 single family lots and a 50 foot right -of -way to service the property to the north of Fox Hollow 3rd Addition (Attachment #1). This agreement was also noted in the development contract signed by the developer and the city. PROPOSAL /SUMMARY 1 The applicant is requesting a 12 foot front yard variance to construct a porch and a deck 8 feet from the front yard lot line. This lot is located in Fox Hollow 3rd Addition which is a planned unit development. Fox Hollow 3rd Addition was permitted a 20 foot front yard setback, 5 foot side yard setback on the garage side and a 10 foot side yard setback on the other side yard. The applicant submitted a letter (Attachment #2) stating that at the time they built their residence, they thought Gray Fox Lane was a paper street which would never be improved or at least,not until years later. The zoning ordinance requires that a front yard setback be maintained from any public right -of -way regardless whether it is a developed right -of -way or not. Also it was noted in the development contract for Fox Hollow, before Fox Hollow 3rd Addition I/ was created and was still an outlot that the developer agrees to dedicate right -of -way across the outlot so that the property to the north can be provided access to Fox Hollow Drive should that property develop prior to the replat of the outlot. A variance may be granted by the Board of Adjustments and Appeals or City Council only if all of the following criteria are met: a. That the literal enforcement of this Chapter would cause undue hardship. "Undue hardship" means the property cannot be put 1 to reasonable use because of its size, physical surroundings, shape or topography. Reasonable use includes a use made by a majority of comparable property within five hundred (500) feet of it. The intent of this provision is not to allow a proliferation of variances, but to recognize that in developed neighborhoods pre- existing standards exist. Variances that blend with these pre- existing standards without departing from them meet this criteria. * Staff surveyed the surrounding area within 500 feet and , found that although all properties have decks, they all are built within the buildable area of the lot and do not encroach into any required setback area. The hardship is self created. The applicant should not have assumed that Gray Fox Lane was to remain undeveloped and even if it were to remain undeveloped, the required setback has to he maintained from a public right -of -way whether it is 1 1 Peterson Variance July 8, 1991 Page 3 developed or undeveloped. Furthermore, the applicant is showing the porch and deck encroaching into a drainage and utility easement. City ordinance forbid any structures to be built within a drainage and utility easement. 1 b. That the conditions upon which a petition for a variance is based are not applicable, generally, to other property within the same zoning classification. * The request, if approved, will create a standard that deviates from the surrounding property within the same subdivision. c. That the purpose of the variation is not based upon a desire to increase the value or income potential of the parcel of land. * The purpose of the variation is not based upon a desire to increase the value or income potential of the parcel of land. 11 d. That the alleged difficulty or hardship is not a self- created hardship. * The difficulty or hardship is self- created. This hardship is a result of the applicant assuming that Gray Fox Lane would remain as a paper street. 11 e. That the granting of the variance will not be detrimental to the public welfare or injurious to other land or improvements in the neighborhood in which the parcel of land is located. 1 * Granting of this variance will result in setting a precedent within this neighborhood and introducing new reduced setbacks. The deck and porch are proposed to be set 8 feet from the front property line. The zoning ordinance strictly prohibits any structures to be built within the front yard setback. f. That the proposed variation will not impair an adequate supply of light and air to adjacent property or substantially increase the congestion of the public streets, or increases the danger of fire, or endanger the public safety or substantially diminish or impair property values within the neighborhood. * The proposed addition will be encroaching on a drainage and utility easement. However, it will not increase congestion of the public streets or increase the danger 1 1 Peterson on Variance July 8, 1991 Page 4 1 of fire, or endanger the public safety or substantially diminish or impair property values within the neighborhood. Staff fails to find a hardship. Approval of this proposal will result in setting a new precedent for this neighborhood. Staff is recommending that the applicant consult an architect to design a deck located in the northerly side yard of the property which provides ample buildable space. 1 RECOMMENDATION Staff is recommending that the Board of Adjustments and Appeals 1 deny Variance Request #91 -7 for reasons defined in the report.
