The existing wood retaining walls have deteriorated but are necessary to support the existing driveway and garage apron located immediately above the wall system. The applicants have no alternatives other than replacement of the walls to allow continued vehicle access to the property. b. The applicants have submitted engineering detail work sufficient to confirm that the proposed two-tier boulder wall system will be capable of supporting the existing driveway apron. c. The applicants have proposed to provide vegetative screening of the boulder walls via the use of perennial plantings to soften their appearance as viewed from the lake. • 4. The City Council has considered this application including the findings and recommendation of the Planning Commission, reports by City staff, comments by the applicants and the public, and the effect of the proposed conditional use permit 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 conditional use permit 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 applicants, but is necessary to alleviate a demonstrable hardship or difficulty; is necessary to preserve a substantial property right of the applicants; and would be in keeping with the spirit and intent of the Zoning Code and Comprehensive Plan of the City.
