BE IT RESOLVED BY the City Council of St. Louis Park, Minnesota:
Findings
1. Robert W. and Diane Yerxa have applied for a variance from Section
14-128(5) of the Ordinance Code relating to zoning to permit a lot width of
60 feet and a lot area of 8,571 square feet for a single family home located
in the R-1, Single Family District, at the following location, to -wit:
The south 20 feet of Lot 8 and that part of Lot 9 lying
north of the south 60 feet thereof, Block 1, Brookside
Second Division
2. The Board of Zoning Appeals has reviewed the application for a variance
(Case No. 78 -36 -VAR) and its action has been reported to the City Council.
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 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 purpose designated is granted, based
upon the findings set forth above.
