city of OR ONO CITY RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF NO. 2834 R•Ilk. A B) The ,proposed 3-season porch and deck will continue the 2.8' setback along the left side lot line. The area of this porch had previously been granted a variance in 1976 for a deck in the same location. These additions are adjacent to an undeveloped alley, which contains City water lines but appears to be maintained as part of the yard of the neighboring property owner. C ) Approval of the variances will not increase the visual density in the neighborhood, since the nearest neighboring structure is a detached garage 30' away on the other side of the alley. D) The proposed 2' cantilever over the front of the house, leaving a 16.8' street lot line setback, is generally in line with other residences constructed in the neighborhood, hence granting the variance will not result in a structure out of character with the rest of the neighborhood. E) Even with the proposed additions, the property will meet all hardcover and lot coverage limitations. 4. The City Council has considered this application including the findings and recommendations of the Planning Commission, reports by City staff, comments by the applicant and the effect of the proposed variance on the health, safety and welfare of the community. 5. The City Council finds that the conditions existing on this property are peculiar to it and do not apply generally to other property in this zoning district; that granting the variance would not adversely affect traffic conditions, light, air nor pose a fire hazard or other danger to neighboring property; would not merely serve as a convenience to the applicant, but is necessary to alleviate a demonstrable hardship or difficulty; is necessary to preserve a substantial property right of the applicant; and would be in keeping with the spirit and intent of the Zoning Code and Comprehensive Plan of the City.
