. ^ <br />‘ <br />FINDINGS <br />1. This application was reviewed as Zoning File #2366. <br />2. The property is located in the LR-IB, Zoning District, where 1 acre or 43,560 <br />sq. ft. is the minimum lot area. The property consists of .60 acres or 26,261 sq. <br />ft. <br />3. The Planning Commission reviewed this application on May 18, 1998, .and <br />recommended approval on a vote of 5 to 0. <br />4. The Planning Commission made the following findings of fact: <br />A. The lot does not meet lot area or lot width requirements. <br />B. The original swimming pool was constructed in 1972 and side yard <br />variances were granted in 1976 for the house, deck, and pool. <br />C. <br />D. <br />E. <br />The swimming pool was damaged in July 1997 and the applicants <br />proceeded to work with the pool contractor and insurance company in <br />repairing the pool. <br />The pool contractor and insurance company determined that the pool <br />needed to be completely replaced. <br />The deck and swimming pool do not infringe on lake views from <br />adjacent properties. <br />The City Council finds that the conditions existing on this property are peculiar <br />to it and do not apply generally to other property in this zoning district; that <br />granting the variance would not adversely affect traffic conditions, light, air nor <br />pose a fire hazard or other danger to neighboring property; would not merely <br />serve as a convenience to the applicants, but is necessary to alleviate a <br />demonstrable hardship or difficulty; is necessary to preserve a substantial <br />property right of the applicants; and would be in keeping with the spirit and <br />intent of the Zoning Code and Comprehensive Plan of the City. <br />Page 2 of 6
