The proposal results in a slight <br /> hardcover decrease in the 0-75 ' zone. <br /> 5. The City Council has considered this application including <br /> the findings and recommendations of the Planning Commission, <br /> reports by City staff, comments by the applicants and the <br /> effect of the proposed variance on the health, safety and <br /> welfare of the community. <br /> iPage 2 of 8 <br />
