RESOLUTION NO. 5561
A RESOLUTION GRANTING VARIANCE IN REAR YARD SETBACK TO PERMIT
A VARIANCE FROM SECTION 6:064.5 OF THE ZONING ORDINANCE TO
PERMIT A REAR YARD OF 30 FEET FOR PROPERTY LOCATED IN THE R-1
SINGLE FAMILY DISTRICT AT 4216 BROOKSIDE AVENUE
BE IT RESOLVED BY the City Council of St. Louis Park, Minnesota:
Findings
1. Rosalie Standing has applied for a variance from Section 6:064.5 of the
Zoning Ordinance to permit a rear yard of 30 feet instead of the required 35
feet for property located in the R-1 Single Family District at the following
location, to -wit:
the easterly 110 feet of the south 1/2 of Block 1,
Lot 2, Brookside Second Addition, commonly known
as 4216 Brookside Avenue.
2. The Board of Appeals has reviewed the application for a variance
(Case No. 76 -38 -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 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 Zoning 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 parpose designated is granted, based
upon the findings set forth above.
Adopted by the City Council July 19, 1976.
