RESOLUTION NO. 6745
A RESOLUTION GRANTING VARIANCE IN SIDE YARD SETBACK
FROM SECTION 14-173 OF THE ORDINANCE CODE RELATING
TO ZONING TO PERMIT A SIDE YARD OF 121/2 INSTEAD OF
THE REQUIRED FIFTEEN FEET IN THE I-1 DISTRICT AT
3520 XENWOOD AVENUE
BE IT RESOLVED BY the City Council of St. Louis Park, Minnesota:
Findings
1. Douglas Corporation has applied for a variance from Section 14-173
of the Ordinance Code relating to zoning to permit a 121/2 foot side yard for pro-
perty located in the I-1 District at the following location, to -wit:
Lots 11 to 17 inclusive, Block 028 "Rearrangement
of St. Louis Park"
2. The Board of Zoning Appeals has reviewed the application for a
variance (Case No. 80 -99 -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
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 ques-
tion 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 January 5, 1981
