M/S/P, Ptacek/Roth to recommend approval of a zoning variance to permit structure encroachment into the OHW setback of a Tributary Stream on Outlot C,Eagle Point Business Park per plans staff dated duly 19, 2006 based on the following Findings: 1. The property can not be put to reasonable use without the granting of the variance requested. 2. The variance requested results from a circumstance unique to this property.
