FILE # 17-3980 <br />20 Nov 2017 <br />Page 4 of 4 <br />Practical Difficulties Statement <br />Applicant has completed the Practical Difficulties Documentation Form attached as Exhibit B, and <br />should be asked for additional testimony regarding the application. <br />Practical Difficulties Analysis <br />While the applicant has provided a compelling argument supporting the placement of the shed <br />(visibility, impact to the site/trees, etc), Staff finds few practical difficulties exist which support <br />the requested variance beyond convenience. <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 denial of the variance. As the shed is partially constructed the <br />applicant should be required to apply for a building permit for the shed and move the shed to a <br />conforming location. <br />List of Exhibits <br />Exhibit A. <br />Application <br />Exhibit B. <br />Practical Difficulties Documentation Form <br />Exhibit C. <br />Existing & Proposed Survey/Site Plan <br />Exhibit D. <br />Proposed Plans and Elevations <br />Exhibit E. <br />Submitted Hardcover Calculations <br />Exhibit F. <br />Property Owners List <br />Exhibit G. <br />Plat Map <br />
