Case No. IV&24:28; An application filed by Robert Dubois for approval of an Outline Development Plan and Final Development Plan for property zoned Planned Industrial Development (PID) and located at 4951 Miller Street.

It will legitimize the existing uses on the property. 2. It will allow the opportunity for future redevelopment. 3. All requirements for an outline development plan have been met.

I CASE ANALYSIS The applicant (owner) is requesting approval of a four-lot subdivision plat. This application includes a request for approval of a lot width variance. The property is currently zoned R-2 and C-1, and contains a single-family structure. The applicant wishes to create four lots. The R-2 zone district allows single-family and two-family residential and accessory buildings, depending • lot size. The C- I zoning only impacts small portions of two of the lots. The properties are collectively 52,665 square feet in size. The C-1 zoning on lot 3 does impact the existing structure. A building permit was recently issued for an attached garage. This garage extends into the C- I portion of the lot. The Code of Laws dictates that existing residences may exist and expand in the C- I district, as long as no new dwelling units are created. The approximate southern ten feet of lot 4 is zoned C-1. The C-1 zoning will not impact the proposed structure on lot 4. Planning Commission 2 MS-04-05/Hyland Agency Referral All responding agencies have indicated that they can serve the property, and the applicant will bear the cost of upgrading any service to the property. The applicant will be required to construct •ub ic im , in the form of curb and Rutter alow the Nfiller Street frontaLy Access point will remain. Lot 1 will gain access from W. 44' if Avenue. Lots 2 and 4 will gain access from W. 40 Place. Because the request is for a four-lot minor subdivision, Planning Commission will take final action on both the subdivision plat and the variance. If the variance is not approved, the subdivision plat cannot be approved. 111. VARIANCE CRITERIA Staff has the following comments regarding the criteria used to evaluate a variance requesi 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? If the request is denied, the property may still receive a reasonable return in use. The property may be used and the single family residence may remain. Redevelopment may occur on the (i arcel in conformance with the R-2 standards and guidelines. If the variance is not granted, the qubdivision may not be approved. 2. If the variance were granted, would it alter the essential character of the locality? If the request were granted, the character • the locality would not be altered. Lot 4 would be 12,8• 3 square feet in size. This lot size is consistent with surrounding properties on the north side • West 40 Place. Comer lots are required to have 80 feet • each frontage. Lot 4 would have a width on the eastern property line of 78 feet, two feet short • the 80 foot standard. The two-foot deficiency would not easily be discernable. The northern property line would have a lot width of approximately 177 feet. 3. Does the particular physical surrounding, shape or topographical condition of the specific property involved result in a particular and unique hardship (upon the owner) as distinguished from a mere inconvenience if the strict letter of the regulations were carried out? kiffi)ii- i i * " * i " -" &"-i" ,t,. ii e--,,kl, — I i , s vision is rectan u ar in M 001,0111111 'A al Lot W1 will tw " 1 1011W OU, W1 MIL 4. Has the alleged difficulty or hardship been created by any person presently having an interest in the property? The request would not be detrimental to the public welfare. The adequate supply of light and air would not be compromised as a result of the request. The request would not increase congestion in the streets,'nor increase the danger of fire. The request would most likely not have an effect • property values in the neighborhood. f. If criteria 1 through 5 are found, then, would the granting of the variance result in a benefit or contribution to the neighborhood or the community, as distinguished from an individual benefit on the part of the applicant, or would granting of the variance result in a reasonable accommodation of a person with disabilities? The granting of the variance will not result in a benefit to the neighborhood. The request wou not result in a reasonable accommodation of a person with disabilities. i VI. STAFF CONCLUSION & RECOMMENDED MOTION (S): Each request will require a separate motion Variance ortive of the reouest. Therefore, staff recommends APPROVAL of the variance request. OPTION A: I move to APPROVE the lot width variance associated with Case No. MS-04-05, a request for approval of a two-foot lot width variance, for property located at 10403 W. 44 Avenue, for the following reasons: 1. The hardship has not been created by a person having interest in the property. 2. The request will not be detrimental to the public welfare or injurious to properties in the area.
