A RESOLUTION GRANTING VARIANCE IN FRONT YARD
SETBACK FROM SECTION 14-108 OF THE ORDINANCE
CODE RELATING TO ZONING TO PERMIT A DETACHED
GARAGE FOUR FEET FROM THE SIDE LOT LINE AND
FORTY FEET FROM THE FRONT LOT LINE IN THE R-1
DISTRICT AT 3013 AQUILA AVENUE SOUTH
BE IT RESOLVED BY the City Council of St. Louis Park, Minnesota:
Findings
1. Ernest Schaffran has applied for a variance from Section 14-108
of the Ordinance Code relating to zoning to permit a front yard setback of
forty feet and a side yard setback of four feet for a detached garage
located in the R-1 District at the following location, to -wit:
Lot 3, Block 1, Belmont Terrace
2. The Board of Zoning Appeals has reviewed the application for
a variance (Case No. 78 -48 -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 anti-
cipated 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 preserva-
tion 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.
