The lot size is consistent with that of other developed properties in the neighborhood. The detached accessory- building is in good structural condition. The detached accessory building was likely constructed under current 75* setback rules without a permit with no similar structures in the immediate neighborhood and is of no historical value.

The City Council finds that the conditions existing on this property are peculiar to it and do not apply generally to other propert>- in this zoning district; that granting the variances will not adversely aflect traffic conditions, light, air, nor pose a fire hazard or other danger to neighboring property; would not merely serve as a convenience to the applicants, but is necessary’ to alleviate a demonstrable hardship or difficulty; is necessary’ to preserve a substantial property right of the applicants; and would be in keeping with the spirit and intent of the Zoning Code and Comprehensive Plan of the City. The City Council has considered this application including the findings and recommendations of the Planning Commission, reports by Cit> Staff, comments by the applicants and the effect of the proposed variances on the health, safety and welfare of the conununity.
