RECOMMENDATION <br /> Staff recommends the approval of the backyard variance request. <br /> Approving the backyard variance for this project is appropriate for the following reasons: <br /> * In order to construct this project, Air. Gregory needs the backyard setback <br /> variances because of the unusual configuration and the sloping topography. <br /> He is trying to configure the site plan.to best utilize the entire site and at the <br /> same time make the proposed townhome development as desirable for the <br /> neighborhood and as self-contained as possible. <br /> * The proposed townhouse project conforms to the concept of future land use <br /> for this area as seen on the land use map in the City's Comprehensive Plan. <br /> The map suggests that office buildings or townhouses are appropriate uses for <br /> this property. <br /> * The variances are also required to make the best economic use of the <br /> property and a certain number of units are needed to make the parcel <br /> feasible for development. <br /> .y <br />
