RESOLUTION NO. 6280
A RESOLUTION GRANTING VARIANCE IN LOT WIDTH FROM
SECTION 14-133 OF THE ORDINANCE CODE RELATING TO
ZONING TO PERMIT CONSTRUCTION OF A SINGLE FAMILY
HOME IN THE R-2 DISTRICT AT 1609 COLORADO SOUTH
BE IT RESOLVED BY the City Council of St. Louis Park, Minnesota:
Findings
1. Alice Alderson has applied for a variance from Section 14-133 of the
Ordinance Code relating to zoning to permit construction of a single family
house on a 48 foot wide lot instead of the required 60 foot width for property
located in the R-2, Single Family District, at the following location, to -wit:
Lot 4, except the North 12 feet thereof and Lot 5,
except the South 20 feet thereof, all in Block 5,
Thorpe Bros. University Club Addition
2. The Board of Zoning Appeals has reviewed the application for a variance
(Case No. 79 -34 -VAR) and has recommended to the City Council that the applica-
tion 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,
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.
