• especially true on the west side of the lot where it is adjacent to County Road <br /> C/29th Avenue. The west side is also considered the front yard,requiring a large <br /> set back. In addition to being bordered by three streets,the building occupies <br /> more than 50% of the lot. This situation further limits the amount of space <br /> available for parking. The Planning Commission found this property is unique <br /> as it is bordered on three sides by streets,which according to the City Ordinance <br /> requires additional setback distances. Anthony Lane South on the west side of <br /> the property is found to be a wider street and as such would not be impacted by <br /> allowing the parking lot to encroach into the setback by nine feet; and <br /> WHEREAS, The granting of the variance is in keeping with the spirit and intent of the Zoning <br /> Code. The Zoning Code requires 38 parking spaces for the Building Fastener <br /> building based on square footage and largest shift. Granting a parking variance <br /> for the additional 11 spaces would be in keeping with the spirit and intent of the <br /> Zoning Code. The Planning Commission found that by allowing the parking <br /> variance,the impact on the surrounding properties and vehicular traffic would <br /> be reduced. Cars would not be parked on the street creating difficult passage for <br /> traffic in the area and Mr. O'Brien would not have to depend on neighboring <br /> properties to provide overflow parking for his employees and customers;and <br /> WHEREAS, The Planning Commission stipulated that if this request is approved and if any <br /> trees are removed for the construction of this parking area,he needs work to <br /> with City Staff to replace them. <br /> • NOW,THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED,the Planning Commission recommends to the City <br /> Council approve a variance for parking expansion at 2825/2827 Anthony Lane South. <br /> Adopted this 25th day of jug 2006. zf <br /> yor <br /> ATTEST: <br /> City Clerk <br /> Review for Administration: <br /> City Manager <br /> • <br /> F:\Planning\Resolutions\Building Fasteners Parking Variance Resolution2006.doc <br />
