RESOLUTION NO. 5397
A RESOLUTION GRANTING VARIANCE IN REAR YARD SETBACK
FROM SECTION 6:064.5 OF THE ZONING ORDINANCE TO
PERMIT A REAR YARD OF 8 FEET FOR A SINGLE-
FAMILY HOME IN THE R-1 DISTRICT
BE IT RESOLVED BY the City Council of St. Louis Park, Minnesota:
Findings
1. Lester Bakken has applied for a variance from Section 6:064.5 of the
Zoning Ordinance to permit a rear yard of 8 feet for a single-family home in
the R-1 District at the following location, to -wit:
Lot 19 and the South 1/2 of Lot 20, Auditor's
Subdivision No. 301, commonly known as
4020 West 39th Street
2. The Board of Appeals has reviewed the application for a variance (Case
No. 75 -76 -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 anticipated traffic
conditions, light and air, danger of fire, risk to the public safety, 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.
