Findings
1. Viola E. and Virginia L. Lowe (Virginia and Elaine Lowe) have applied for a
variance from Section 14-133(3) of the Ordinance Code relating to zoning to permit
construction of a garage having a side yard setback abutting a street of 14 feet instead
of the required 15 feet for a single family dwelling located in the R-2, Single Family
Residential District at the following location, to -wit:
Lot 1, Block 13, "Lenox" (Abstract)
2. A Committee of the Board of Zoning Appeals has reviewed the application for
a variance (Case No. 84 -87 -VAR) and its action has been reported to the City Council.
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 construction of a garage having a side yard setback
abutting a street of 14 feet instead of the required 15 feet is granted based upon the
findings set forth above.
