Planning Commission meeting <br /> April 17 , 1990 <br /> Page 3 <br /> • <br /> .1 <br /> 2 Commissioner Faust indicated his concern with the conformity of the <br /> 3 project with other front yard setbacks in adjacent properties and the <br /> 4 safety factor of having only 15 feet of driveway which even one normal <br /> 5 sized car would fill . <br /> 6 <br /> 7 Commissioner Wagner said he was also concerned with the length of <br /> 8 drive-way to accommodate the vehicles but his greatest concern was <br /> g the size of the variance, 20 feet which would make the new garages so <br /> 10 far out of alignment with other front yards in the same area . <br /> 11 <br /> 12 Commissioner Hansen said he was also concerned about the safety factor <br /> 13 with parking even two cars on only 15 feet of driveway exiting onto that <br /> 14 busy street . He imagined that a driver would almost be out in the street <br /> 15 before he or she had a chance to judge the speed of approaching vehicles . <br /> 16 <br /> 17 Commissioner Brownell questioned whether the three questions which the <br /> 18 applicant had to answer affirmatively on the Petition for Variance could <br /> 19 realistically have been answered thus for this project . He perceived <br /> • 20 the variance relieved more of an inconvenience than an undue hardship; <br /> 21 saw no extraordinary circumstance related to that particular parcel to <br /> 22 justify a variance, and did not agree that the City Ordinance caused <br /> 23 any particular difficulty or hardship for the property owners . He indi- <br /> 24 cated he would therefore oppose granting the variance. <br /> 25 <br /> 26 Commissioner Werenicz also questioned the validity of affirmative replies <br /> 27 to the three questions and joined the other Commissioners in their <br /> 28 opposition to the variance. <br /> 29 <br /> 30 Chairperson Madden said the magnitude of the discrepancy in structure <br /> 31 alignment with adjacent properties in addition to the problem the shorter <br /> 32 driveway might pose for the City snow removal plows prompted his <br /> 33 opposition to granting the variance. <br /> 34 <br /> 35 `lotion by Werenicz, seconded by Wagner to recommend that the City Council <br /> 36 deny the request for a 20 foot variance from the 35 foot front yard set- <br /> 37 backs maintained by adjacent properties for two double garages in front <br /> 38 of the double bungalow at 2608/10 37th Avenue N. E. finding that ( 1 ) the <br /> 39 Commission did not perceive the three questions in the variance applicati, <br /> 40 could be answered in the affirmative; ( 2 ) the safety factors and potentia <br /> 41 problems with the sewer line with the construction justified the denial <br /> 42 of the variance as well as (3) the lack of precedence for granting simila <br /> 43 requests in the past . <br /> 44 <br /> ot405_ Motion carried unanimously. <br /> 47 Zoning Change for Self-Service Storage Project at. Apache Tabled to <br /> 48 Allow Additional Notification of Property Owners in the Same Area <br /> 49 <br /> 50 <br />
