<br />. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />WHEREAS, the Planning Commission held a duly noticed public hearing <br />regarding this variance on Wednesday, June 1, 2005; and, <br /> <br />WHEREAS, according to Section 1125.02, Subdivision 2 of the Mounds View <br />Municipal Code, the Planning Commission is to review a standard set of criteria, of <br />which all must be satisfied, in order to grant a variance to the Zoning Code. <br /> <br />NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, the Mounds View Planning <br />Commission makes the following finding of facts related to this request: <br /> <br />1. The property is zoned R-1, Single Family Residential. <br /> <br />2. The prevailing front yard setback for the 5100 block of Greenwood Drive is <br />thirty-five feet. In addition, the Zoning Code requires a minimum front yard <br />setback of thirty feet. <br /> <br />3. The applicant is requesting to reduce the front yard setback to nineteen <br />feet. <br /> <br />4. The property is neither exceptional nor extraordinary in regards to shape <br />or size. <br /> <br />5. Granting a variance in this case would confer a special privilege not <br />enjoyed by other property owners in that there does not appear to be a <br />sufficient hardship to warrant approval of the variance. <br /> <br />6. <br /> <br />The variance would be materially detrimental to the purpose of this Title in <br />that there does not appear to be a sufficient hardship to warrant approval <br />of the variance. <br /> <br />7. The hardship criteria as identified in Section 1125.02 have not been <br />satisfied. <br /> <br />NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, the Mounds View Planning <br />Commission, based upon its review of the documentation, testimony presented at the <br />public hearing, and the identified findings of fact, does hereby deny the request for a <br />sixteen-foot variance from the prevailing front setback of thirty-five feet at 5131 <br />Greenwood Drive. <br /> <br />NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT FINALLY RESOLVED by the Planning Commission <br />that the applicant shall be notified of the right to appeal this denial to the City Council. <br />The appeal shall be submitted in writing within 10 business days of the adoption of this <br />Resolution. <br /> <br />Adopted this 1 st day of June, 2005. <br /> <br /> <br />ATTEST: <br /> <br />. . ,r'. <br />...J LA,"'- G{~'\. v :;------ <br />Jim Ericson, Community Development Director <br /> <br />(SEAL) <br />
