The lot <br /> contains 0.86 acres in area, meeting the 80%rule of Section 10.03, Subd. 6(A)(1), <br /> for existing lots of record,but is only 105' in width at the reaz of the front yard,not <br /> meeting the 80%rule noted above. <br /> 3. The Planning Commission reviewed this application at a public hearing held on <br /> May 19, 2003 and recommended approval of the lot width variance based on the <br /> following findings: � <br /> a) The property contained an existing residence structure and detached garage, <br /> . which have been recently removed by the applicant in order to conshuct a new <br /> � residence on the property. <br /> b) The property is provided with municipal sewer. <br /> • c) The lot area of 0.86 acres is sufficient to allow reconstruction on the site, <br /> where a residence has previously existed for many years,without the need for <br /> further variances. <br /> d) There is no land available for acquisition by the applicant to bring the lot into <br /> conformity. <br /> 4. The City Council has considered this application including the findings and <br /> recommendations of the Planning Commission, reports by City staff, comments by <br /> the applicant and the public, and the effect of the proposed variance on the health, <br /> safety and welfare of the community. <br /> 5. The City Council finds that the conditions existing on this property are peculiar to it � <br /> � and do not apply generally to other property in this zoning district; that granting the <br /> variance would not adversely affect traffic conditions,light,air nor pose a fire hazard <br /> or other danger to neighboring property;would not merely serve as a convenience to <br /> the applicant,but is necessary to alleviate a demonstrable hardship or difficulty; is <br /> necessary to preserve a substantial property right of the applicant; and would be in <br /> keeping with the spirit and intent of the Zoning Code and Comprehensive Plan of the <br /> City. <br /> � Page 2 of 5 <br />
