A) The total hardcover removed as a result of these
improvements will be 3,534 s.f. or 19�.
B ) The removal of the two existing commercial
structures and the replacement of just one structure at
4,500 s.f. as originaily approved in Application #1263
will resuit in a less intense commercial use of this
severely limited property.
C) The amended proposal will provide far more green
area than the original site plan approved with
Application #1263.
D) The applicant has proposed better treatment of
drainage and run-off with the amended proposal.
E) The amended proposal provides the removal of 600
s.f. of additional hardcover than was required to be
removed with original land use application #1263.
� F) The property has sustained a marina use for over 25
years.
4. The City Council has considered this appiication
including the findings and recommendations of the Planning
Commission, reports by City staff, comments by the applicant
and the effect of the proposed variances 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
variances 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 al leviate
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.
