SETBACK FROM SECTION 6:064.5 OF THE ZONING
ORDINANCE TO PERMIT A FRONT YARD SETBACK OF
15.3 FEET FOR A SINGLE-FAMILY HOME IN
AN R-1 DISTRICT UNDER SPECIFIED CONDITIONS
BE IT RESOLVED BY the City Council of St. Louis Park, Minnesota:
Findings
1. Nathan Griver has applied for a variance from Section 6:064.5 of the
Zoning Ordinance to permit a front yard setback of 15.3 feet for a single-family
home in the R-1 District at the following location, to -wit:
Lot 7, Block 2, Cobblecrest Addition,
commonly known as 2800 Cavell Avenue.
2. The Board of Appeals has reviewed the application for a variance (Case
No. 75 -72 -VAR) and has recommended to the City Gauncil that the application be
granted with conditions.
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 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.
7. The following conditions and safeguards are necessary in, order to
ensure and will in fact ensure that there will be no unreasonably adverse con-
sequences to the granting of the variance:
a. The lot shall be developed, used and maintained in
accordance with Exhibit "A," Survey/Proposed Site Plan.
Conclusion
The application for a variance for the purpose designated is granted, based
upon the findings set forth above and subject to the conditions set forth in
paragraph 7 of these findings.
Adopted by the City Council November 17, 1975.
