A RESOLUTION GRANTING VARIANCE IN Side Yard Setback
FROM SECTION 14-128(3) OF THE ORDINANCE CODE RELATING
TO ZONING TO PERMIT construction of an addition to the
principal structure which would have a setback of 10
feet instead of the required side yard setback of 15
feet abutting a street IN THE R-1 DISTRICT AT 4350
Brook Avenue.
BE IT RESOLVED BY the City Council of St. Louis Park, Minnesota:
Findings
1. Louis R. Turk has applied for a variance from Section 14.128(3)
of the Ordinance Code relating to zoning to permit construction of an
addition to the principal structure which would have esetback of 10
feet instead of the required side yard setback of 15 feet abutting a
street for a single family house located in the R-1 District at
Lot 1, Block 8, Browndale Park Addition
2. The Board of Appeals has reviewed the application for a variance
(Case No. 79-55-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,
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 ad-
jacent property, unreasonably increase the congestion in the public streets,
increase the danger of fire, endanger the public safety, unreasonably dimin-
ish or impair health, safety, comfort, morals, or in any other respect be
contrary to the intent of the Zoning Ordinance and the Cpmprehensive 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 demon-
strable hardship or difficulty.
Conclusion
The application for a variance for the purpose designated is granted, based
upon the findings set forth above.
Adopted by the City Council August 13,1979.
