A RESOLUTION GRANTING VARIANCE IN SIDE YARD REQUIREMENTS
FROM SECTION 6:074.5 OF THE ZONING ORDINANCE,TO PERMIT A
SIDE YARD OF 2 FEET INSTEAD OF THE REQUIRED 6 FEET
IN THE R-2 SINGLE FAMILY DISTRICT
BE IT RESOLVED BY the City Council of St._ Louis Park, Minnesota:
Findings
1. Wayne C. Erickson has applied for a variance from Section 6:074.5
of the Zoning Ordinance to permit a side yard of 2 feet instead of the
required 6 feet for the purpose of constructing an attached garage which
will not have windows on the south side for property located in the R-2
Single Family District at the following location, to -wit:
Lot 13, Block 2, Wildrose Addition, commonly
known as 4049 Salem Avenue.
2. The Board of Appeals has reviewed the application for a variance
(Case No. 75 -37 -VAR) and has recommended to the City Council that the
application be granted.
3. The Council has considered the effect of the proposed variance
upon the health, safety, and welfare of the community, existing and antici-
pated traffic conditions, light and air, danger of fire, risk to the public
safety, and the effect on values of property in the surrounding area and the
effect of the proposed variance upon the Comprehensive Plan.
4. Because of conditions on the subject property and on the surrounding
property, it is possible to use the subject property in such a way that the
proposed variance will not impair an adequate supply of light and air to
adjacent property, unreasonably increase the congestion in the public streets,
increase the danger of fire, endanger the public safety, unreasonably
diminish or impair health, safety, comfort, morals, or in any other respect
be contrary to the intent of the ordinance and the Comprehensive Plan.
5. The special conditions applying to the structure or land in
question are peculiar to such property or immediately adjoining property, and
do not apply generally to other land or structures in the district in which
such land is located.
6. The granting of the application is necessary for the preservation
and enjoyment of a substantial property right of the applicant. It will not
merely serve as a convenience to the applicant, but is necessary to alleviate
demonstrable hardship or difficulty.
Conclusion
The application for a variance for the purpose designated is granted, based
upon the findings set forth above.
Adopted by the City Council July 21, 1975.
