i <br />Resolution b68-41 <br />Page 2 <br />1. The proposed Iot at the northeast corner of Long Lake Road and County Road I is <br />zoned R-1, Single Family Residential. <br />2. The minimum lot width for a corner R-1 lot is 100 feet. <br />3. There is nothing extraordinary or special about the applicant's land which would <br />create a hardship or practical difficulties. <br />4. The literal interpretation of the Code would not deprive Mr. Gustafson of rights <br />commonly enjoyed by other properties in the same district. The Code aIlows for a <br />three lot subdivision of this iot, but not if two of the lots would be rezoned R-2. <br />5. The special conditions are directly related to Mr. Gustafson's desire to divide the lot <br />into three developable parcels, two of which would be R-2 lots. <br />6. Granting a variance in this case would confer a special privilege not enjoyed by other <br />property owners. The subdivision requirements are intended to maintain orderly and <br />consistent development throughout the City. Deviating from these requirements <br />withaut a demonstrated hardship or practicai difficulty would constitute a special <br />privilege. <br />7. Crrantir�g the variance wouId be detrimental to the purpose of the Code in that it <br />would constitu�e a special privilege, would be based on a economic factors, and _�' <br />would possibly set a precedent for all future subdivision requests. <br />NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, the Mounds View Planning <br />Commission, based upon its review of the documentation, testimony presented at the public <br />hearing, and the identified findings of fact, does hereby deny the variance request for a reduced <br />minimum lot width for a proposed lot at the northeast corner of Long Lake Road and County <br />Road I. <br />Adopted this 1 st day of August, 2001. <br />Gary Stevenson, Chairperson <br />Attest: <br />James Ericson, Community Development Director <br />(Seal} <br />N:IDATAIGROUPSICOMDEV\DEVELOPMENT CASESIVROI-009 (GUSTAFSON)1RESOLUTION 668-01.DOC <br />
