Application 2. Zoning Map 3. Location Map 4. Golf Course Layout 5. Site Plan 6. Photographic Documentation 7. Staff Report " t Resolution 766-04 Page 2 . WHEREAS, the Planning Commission held a duly noticed public hearing regarding this variance on W'ednesday, July 7,2004; and, WHEREAS, according to Section 1125.02, Subdivision 2 of the Mounds View Municipal Code, the Planning Commission is to review a standard set of criteria, of which all must be satisfied, in order to grant a variance to the Zoning Code. NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, the Mounds View Planning Commission makes the following finding of facts related to this request: 3. 4. . 5. 6. 7. 1. The exceptional or extraordinary conditions relating to the variance request are that the City prefers to maintain a natural area between the golf course and Sysco thereby necessitating a reduction in the spacing of the billboards. 2. The literal interpretation of the Zoning Code would create a hardship for the applicant in that it is desirable to preserve trees in the natural area as well as throughout the golf course and that the existing tree cover would obscure the billboard advertising faces without the variance. The applicant has not caused the condition which prompted the variance request. Granting the variance would not confer upon the applicant a special privilege. The variances requested are the minimum variances which would alleviate the hardship in that they are the minimum necessary to allow for maximum tree preservation and sign face visibility. Granting a variance to allow for increased sign height and decreased sign separation would not be materially detrimental the Code. Granting the variance would not impair an adequate supply of light and air to adjacent property or substantially increase the congestion of the public streets or increase the danger of fire or endanger the public safety or substantially diminish or impair property values within the neighborhood. NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the Mounds View Planning Commission, based upon the above identified finding of facts, does hereby approve the variance requested for a 45-foot maximum sign height and a reduction in the minimum separation between signs as generally illustrated on the attached Exhibit A. .
