Section 700.05 of the City Code (as amended in 2003) provides septic variances shall be <br />processed and heard using the same process as prescribed for zoning variances (Section 300). That <br />would include, we assume, the same required Findings as well. <br />Findings and Recommendations: <br />1. The property can not be put to reasonable use without the granting of the varance <br />requested. The property can not be put to any continued residential use without a properly <br />functioning septic system. As a platted parcel with an existing home, residential use is a <br />reasonable use of the property. <br />2. The variance requested does result from circumstances unique to this property related to <br />the location of the existing septic system in 1980. There is no alternative location feasible <br />for the system reconstruction and enlargement required to render the system MY <br />functional. <br />3. Granting of the variance will not change the essential character of the neighborhood since <br />all proposed improvements will be below grade. <br />planningCommission Actions Requested, <br />Motion to recommend approval of variances for septic drainfieId setbacks at 8320 bidden Bay <br />Trail based on Findings of the August 9, 2006 Planning Staff Report and plans staff dated August <br />9, 2006. <br />Charles E.
