• • • City Council Meeting Noel Variance March 24, 2003 Comment: the property cannot facilitate a hanger without the granting of the variance. In this respect, it could not fulfill its function as an Air Park property without a variance. 2. That the plight of the landowners is due to physical circumstances unique to his property, and not created by the landowner. Comment: unique circumstances - in the form of the transition air space /safety zone - preclude placement of the hanger in a location compliant with the Zoning Ordinance. 3. That the hardship is not due to economic considerations alone, and when a reasonable use for the property exists under the terms of the ordinance. Comment: hardship is in the form of the transition air space /safety zone, which precludes placement in a location behind the home. Without a hanger, the property can not fully be used as an Air Park property. 4. That granting the variance requested will not confer on the applicant any special privilege that would be denied by this ordinance to other lands, structures, or buildings in the same district. Comment: this variance would be similar to previous variances granted for hanger placement, for similar reasons. 5. That the proposed actions will be in keeping with the spirit and intent of the ordinance. Comment: hardship and unique physical circumstances have been demonstrated for the property, thus there are grounds for a variance. PLANNING & ZONING BOARD The above report was presented at the March 12th meeting of the Planning & Zoning Board. After consideration of the issues, the board voted to approve the proposed Variance. RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends approval of the proposed Variance, as hardship and unique physical circumstances, in the form of the transition air space /safety zone, have been demonstrated.
