7. 8. 9. 10. 11. 12. The use of the property will remain residential. The application is for plumbing in an accessory structure which the Code does not address. In the past plumbing in an accessory structure has been defmed as a guest house. The Board or Council may permit as a variance the temporary use of a one-family dwelling as a two-family dwelling. The applicant will not be changing the dwelling status of the property. Mr. and Mrs. Kluth have agreed to place a restrictive covenant on the deed to run with the land which would prohibit the use of the building as any sort of living quarters. The special conditions applying to the structure of land in question are peculiar to such property or immediately adjoining property. The property contains a drainage pattern that would be impacted by extending the residence. The conditions do no apply generally to other land or structures in the district in which said land is located. The residence is built into a hill and water naturally flows from the higher southwest comer of the lot to the northeast comer. The granting of the application is necessary for the preservation and enjoyment of a substantial property right of the applicant. The lot could support an addition to the home absent of a drainage problem. To maximize livable space without interrupting the natural water flow the applicant is constmcting an accessory structure separate from the principal. The granting of the proposed variance will not in any way impair health, safety, comfort, morals, or in any other respect be contrary to the intent of the Zoning Code. The game building will be required to meet all furrent building code requirements. The stmcture will have plumbing and heating. It will not have a detrimental effect on adjacent properties. The granting of such variance will not merely serve as a convenience to the applicant, but is necessary to alleviate demonstrable hardship or difl&culty. «2389DmlelJ.
