OHMMM�� Yes. According to Section 26-45 (F), of the Wheat Ridge Code of Laws, a one-family dwelling in the Residential-Two A zone district can be located on a 7,500 square foot property with a 60 lot width. Therefore, if the request is denied, the property may yield a reasonable return in use, service and income. Board of Adjustment Staff Report Case No. WA-97-31 \ Bandimere 2. Is the plight of the owner due to unique circumstances? 3. If the variation were granted, would it alter the essential character of the locality; and No. The property is located in an area that is surroUnded.by several apartments structures and adjacent to an existing church. Also, the applicant will be required to comply with the existing setbacks established for the specific zone district. Therefore, approval of this request should not alter the essential character of the locality. 4. Would the particular physical surrounding shape, or topographical condition of the specific property involved result in a particular hardship (upon the owner) as distinguished from a mere inconvenience if the strict letter of e• carried out; and, No. The property currently exists as a primarily rectangular lot. Although the southern property line meanders to the east at a slight angle, there is an adequate building envelope established that would permit proper development of a sizable residential structure. 5, Would the conditions upon which based be applicable, generally, zoning classification; and, the petition for a variation iM to other property within the saA Yes. There are several properties throughout the city of Wheat Ridge which exist as substandard lots of record, which would be permitted to apply for the same type • variance. il. Is the purpose of the variation based exclusively upon the desire to make money out of the property; and, Yes.. The applicant would be permitted, by right, to develop a single- family residence. However, development of a duplex would probably create more of a market value for the property. Board of Adjustment Staff Report Case No. WA-97-31 \ Bandimere OMFM 7. Has the alleged difficulty or hardship been created by any perso presently having an interest in the property; and, I No. Approval of this request is neither a benefit for the community nor for the reasonable accommodation of a handicapped person.

PLEDGE OF ALLEGIANCR APPROVE THE ORDER • THE AGENDA 1� Commissioner ECKHARDT moved to approve the agenda for the meeti of January 18, 1996 as Printed. Commissioner WILLIAMS seconded the motion. Motion carried 5-0. • S. APPROVAL OF MINUTES Planning Commission Minutes January 18, 1996 Umm Mr. Gidley reminded Commission that' three separate motions were required. The motion regarding the variance requires a greater- than-majority vote, or four out of five members. Bgn BandjMgrg, 13 - 831 West 54th Avenue, Arvada, was sworn in. Mr. Bandimere stated he originally had planned to build two houses on the property, however, the appraisal done did not support his plan. He had also considered a four-plex, but decided two duplexes would work better. Commissioner CERVENY asked if the property was large enough t support a four-plex. I Mr. Gidley stated that a minimum of 4,000 square feet • land area is required for each dwelling unit in multi-family buildings. The applicant has more than the 1'6,000 square feet required. Commissioner CERVENY asked if a four-plex would have advantages over two duplexes, other than one meeting Subdivision Requirements and the other does not? Mr. Gidley stated that he felt that the four-plex structure would have a better relationship on the whole parcel, than two duplexes on two smaller lots. He explained that this was true because you have individual side lot requirements and also individual private property associated with the smaller lots. Commissioner CERVENY mentioned possible pros and cons of owner- occupied versus renter-occupied units. Commissioner CERVENY asked if the fact that a duplex would be allowed on the whole parcel, but that two duplexes would not b allowed on the subdivided lot, would be considered unique or unusual circumstances. He thought that the two duplexes might actually enhance the neighborhood. He elaborated. I Mr. Gidley answered that they had denied and approved some such cases. He added that he did not know nor could he predict what the Board would do in the incidence Commissioner CERVENY mentioned. Commissioner ECKHARDT suggested condominium ownership could be done. Planning Commission Minutes January 18, 1996 •MOM Mr. Bandime noted that it was costly to set up condominium ownership. commissioner RASPLICKA asked if a four-plex was constructed, would the units have to be attached? Mr. Gidley answered yes. Chairperson LANGDON asked that Mr. GidleY further explain Mr. Bandimere's options should the variance not be granted. Mr. Gidley stated yes, that was correc Commissioner ECKHARDT moved that the request for rezoning from C- 1 and A-1 to R-2A for property located at 4470 Lee Street be Approved for the following reasons: 1. The request is compatible with the surrounding use; 2. It is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan; and 3. The evaluation criteria presented support the request. commissioner RASPLICKA seconded the motion. Motion carried 5-0. Commissioner ECKHARDT moved that the request for lot area and lot width variances associated with a proposed subdivision be Denied for the following reason: . 1. The variance evaluation criteria do not support'approval. Commissioner RASPLICKA seconded the motion. Motion carried 4-1, with Commissioner CERVENY voting no. • 0 • 0 • 1. The plat be redesigned to allow for one R-2A single-family lot and one R- 2A duplex lot.

If approved, the garage will be located 10' from the side (north) property line. Pursuant to section 26-10(F), of the Wheat Ridge Code of Laws, a detached garage • carport must retain a side yard setback • 15 from the side property lines. If the variance is approved, the structure will be 10' from the side property line, and retain approximately 20' from the existing structure on the adjacent property to the north. • date, there have not been any phone calls • letters • opposition. Staff has the following comments regarding the criteria to evaluate an application for a variance: 1. Can the property in question yield a reasonable return in use, service, or income if permitted to be used only under the conditions allowed by regulation for the District in which it is located? Yes. The applicant has designed the proposed garage to allow for adequate space to park his two full-size pickups. According to the site plan, the applicant could build a typical 20' wide, two-car garage. If so, the proposed structure would comply with the 15' side yard setback requirement, and allow for the 3' minimum separation between structures. 2. Is the plight of the owner due to unique circumstances? No. There aren't any unique circumstances attributed to this case. 3. If the variation were granted, would it alter the essential character of the locality? Board of Adjustment Staff Report Page 3 Case No. WA-98-1 \ Kearns No. Although there is only one other property within the immediate vicinity that has been approved for a 10' side yard setback variance, approval of this request should not alter the essential character of the locality. No. The property currently exists as a primarily rectangular lot and there is approximately a 12,798 square feet of buildable space remaining on the property. Therefore, there are other areas within the property for which this size of garage may be located. No. The sole purpose of the variance is to allow for enclosed parking for the applicant's two full-sized pickup trucks. 7. Has the alleged difficulty or hardship been created by any person No. Granting of this variance will not be detrimental to the public welfare or injurious to other property or improvements in the neighborhood as approval of this variation will only permit the construction of a two-car detached garage. Board of Adjustment Staff Report Case No. WA-98-1 \ Kearns 9. Would the proposed variation impair the adequate supply • light and air to adjacent property or substantially increase the congestion in the public streets or increase the danger of fire or endanger the public safety or substantially diminish or impair property valuet within the neighborhood, And 10. If it is found in criteria 8 and • above, that granting • the variation No. Approval of this request is neither a benefit for the community nor for the reasonable accommodation of a handicapped person. This request is based solely upon individual benefit. OPTION A: "I move that case no.
