The City adopted <br /> ordinances over the past few years to address inadequacies in the small, and/or narrow existing <br /> properties, and disproportionate distribution of lot area within the 75-foot setback for hardcover <br /> on Tier 1 lots. <br /> Engineer Comments <br /> The City Engineer has not reviewed the proposed plan. A thorough review will be conducted at <br /> the time of building permit. <br /> Public Comments <br /> To date, no public comments have been received. <br /> Issues for Consideration <br /> 1. Does the Planning Commission find that that the property owner proposes to use the <br /> property in a reasonable manner which is not permitted by an official control? <br /> 2. Does the Planning Commission find that the variance(s), if granted, will not alter the <br /> essential character of the neighborhood? <br /> 3. Does the Commission find it necessary to impose conditions in order to mitigate the <br /> impacts created by the granting of the requested variance(s)? <br /> 4. Are there any other issues or concerns with this application? <br /> Planning Staff Recommendation <br /> Planning staff recommends approval variances as requested as they are supported by practical <br /> difficulties. If the planning commission makes the same conclusion, approval may be <br /> appropriate. <br /> List of Exhibits <br /> Exhibit A. Application Summary& Narrative <br /> Exhibit B.
