Res 9576 Page 2 of 4 Plan and upon the health, safety and general welfare of occupants of surrounding lands.

The use will not create an excessive burden on existing parks, schools, streets and other public facilities and utilities which serve or are proposed to serve the area; FINDING: The use (Club House) will cause no additional impacts to public facilities. Although the owner will be removing the outdoor sport courts, comparable facilities are available at the adjacent Silver View Park. 2.

The building will exceed minimum building setbacks. 3. The structure and site shall have an appearance that will not have an adverse effect upon adjacent residential properties; FINDING: The Club House will feature similar materials (brick, EIFS/stucco), complementing the existing apartment buildings (1972). 4. The use, in the opinion of the City Council, is reasonably related to the overall needs of the city and to the existing land use; FINDING: The use (Club House) is reasonably needed for the existing land use (multi- family), benefiting its residents, and provides amenities expected, if this were a newer apartment complex. 5.
