FROM SECTION 14-133 OF THE ORDINANCE CODE RELATING
TO ZONING TO PERMIT CONSTRUCTION OF A HOUSE WITH SIDE
YARD SETBACKS OF FIVE FEET INSTEAD OF THE REQUIRED SIX
FEET FOR PROPERTY IN AN R-2, SINGLE FAMILY RESIDENCE
DISTRICT AT 2716 BLACKSTONE AVENUE
BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of St. Louis Park, Minnesota:
Findings
1. Marvin H. Anderson Construction Company has applied for a variance
from Section 14-133 of the Ordinance Code relating to zoning to permit
construction of a house with side yard setbacks of five feet instead of
the required six feet for a single family, residence located in the R-2,
Single Family Residence District, at the following location, to -wit:
Lot 5, Block 3, Park Manor
2. The Board of Zoning Appeals has reviewed the application for a
variance (Case No. 80 -22 -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, 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.
Adopted by the -City Council April 21, 1980.
