William Miller has applied for a variance from Section 14-183(5) of the Ordinance Code relating to zoning to permit a rear yard of 6' for an industrial building located in the I-3 Industrial District at the following location, to -wit: Lots 37 and 38, Block 175, Rearrangement of St. Louis Park 2. The Board of Zoning Appeals has reviewed the application for a variance (Case No. 77 -87 -VAR) and has recommended to the City Council 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; 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 con- trary 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. 1 1 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 insure and will in fact insure that there will be no unreasonably adverse consequences to the granting of the variance: a. The addition shall be used for garage and off-street loading purposes. b. The addition shall not be used for the expansion of the industrial use unless off-street parking is pro- vided in accordance with the Zoning Ordinance. 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.
