The applicant, Dennis Marshall, is requesting a 7.5-foot (50%) side yard setback variance trom the 15-
foot side yard setback requirement to allow a existing shed at 9 Morningside Drive.
Section 26-115.0 (Variances and Waivers) of the Wheat Ridge City Code empowers the Director
of Community Development to decide upon applicants for administrative variances from the strict
application of the zoning district development standards that are not in excess of fifty (50) percent
of the standard,
11. CASE ANALYSIS
The applicant, Dennis Marshall, is requesting a variance as the property owner of 9 Morningside Drive.
The property is located two lots west from the intersection of Dawn Court and Morningside Drive. The
variance is being requested to allow a existing shed
The lot has all area of 14,633 square teet (0.34 acres) and currently contains a 2,429 square foot single-
family home with an 85 square foot covered porch, 334 square foot wood deck, and a 624 square foot
attached garage. The property is zoned Residential-One (R-1), a zoning district which provides for
high quality, safe, quiet and stable low-density residential neighborhoods. Current lot coverage is 24%.
The R- I lot coverage standard allows up to 25% lot coverage.
According to the Jefferson County Assessor, the property is occupied by a single-family ranch style
home, which is part of the Paramount Heights Part 3 Subdivision. The property is embedded in an R- I
neighborhood, and surrounded by single-family homes There is an 8-foot change
in elevation from Morningside Drive to the rear property line.
The existing shed was installed in a manner that is out of compliance with the zoning code setback
requirements. The existing shed rests against the cast side of the primary structure on the east side of
. ..... . .
the property. The shed is 7.5 feet wide by 16 feet long (120 square feet) and 9 feet high,'(,
$004". It is supported by 6 wood posts on cinder blocks resting on the ground, with n , o
foundation for the structure.

Case No. IV4- 13 -17,' 9 Morningside Alve
The building division does not require a permit for an accessory structure 120 square feet or smaller.
However, when an accessory structure is attached to another building, a building permit is required.
Currently the shed rests up against the home with no attaching devise. Upon initial review, building
division is going to require the applicant to pour a foundation, and attach the shed to the primary
structure.
The reason for the variance is to relocate an existing shed built in violation of the required setbacks.
The applicant contacted the city prior to construction of the shed. At that time, staff raised concerns
about the location of the shed relative to the sideyard setback, and advised the applicant to obtain an
Improvement Location Certificate (ILL to detennine current setbacks. The applicant did not contact
staff again prior to construction.
The city was notified by a neighbor that construction of the shed was underway and that the accessory
structure was too close to the property line to the east. City staff went out to inspect the structure and
found the shed had encroached significantly into the side yard setback. Staff sent the applicant a letter
stating be was in violation of the setback. The applicant then applied for the setback variance to
legitimize the construction of the shed.
The existing shed location on the side of the house is clearly visible from the neighbors to the cast.
Their house has a garden level basement and large deck on the second level which looks out directly on
the shed structure. Although there is a six foot privacy fence separating the two lots it does not shield
the neighbors from a clear view of the shed because of the elevated deck.
Subsequent to the public noticing period, Staff met again on site with the applicant to discuss alternate
locations for the shed. The subject property and the properties to both the west and north open onto
each other. There are neither sheds nor perimeter screening fences which delineate property lines.
(Exhibit 4, backyard photos)
An alternate location discussed with the applicant would be to place the shed into the northeastern
comer of the property against an existing mature blue spruce. The shed would hide two utility boxes
and would be visually buffered the large tree. This location would require a 7.5' variance from the side
lot line. (Exhibit 5, alternate shed location)

In order to approve an administrative variance, the Community Development Director must
detennine that the majority of the "criteria for review" listed in Section 26-115.0.4 of the City
Code have been met. Staff provides the following review and analysis of the variance criteria.
1. The property in question would not 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. I
Administrative Mariance
Case No— J,,1''4-13-1719iiforiiiiig.viticDt�ive
If the request were denied, the property would continue to yield a reasonable return in use.
The property would continue to function as a single-family home, regardless of the
outcome of the variance request.
Staff finds this criterion has not been met.
2. The variance would not alter the essential character of the locality.
With the proposed shed, the property at 9 Morningside Drive would be at 24.5% lot
coverage. 24.5% is just under the maximum lot coverage threshold for the R- I zoning
district.
Staff finds this criterion has been met.
3. The applicant is proposing a substantial investment in the properq with this
application, which would not be possible without the variance.
While the existing shed is an investment in the property, it is not considered to be
substantial.

5. The alleged difficulty or hardship has not been created by any person presently
having an interest in the property.
Staff finds this criterion has not been met.
The proposed new location of the shed would not be detrimental to public welfare and is
not expected to injure neighboring property or improvements. It would not hinder or
impair the development of the adjacent properties. Relocation of the shed with proximity
to the mature blue spruce would result in visual buffering from neighboring properties;
thus the amount of light and air would not be impacted.
The request would not increase the congestion in the streets, nor would it cause an
obstruction to motorists on the adjacent streets. It is unlikely that the request would impair
property values in the neighborhood.
Staff finds this criterion has been met.
7. The unusual circumstances or conditions necessitating the variance request a
present in the neighborhood and are not unique to the property.
Relocation of the shed to the northwestern comer of the property with a side setback
variance will alleviate the visual impact of the neighbor to the east without negatively
impacting the neighbor to the north.
Staff finds that this criterion has been met.

8. Granting of the variance would result in a reasonable accommodation of a person

working days from approval of this variance.

Administrative Variance
Case No. WA-13-1719 Morningside Drive
All notification and posting requirements have been met; therefore, there is jurisdiction to make an
administrative decision.
I. REQUEST
The applicant, Dennis Marshall, is requesting a 7.5 -foot (50 %) side yard setback variance from the 15-
foot side yard setback requirement to legitimize an existing shed at 9 Morningside Drive.
Section 26 -115.0 (Variances and Waivers) of the Wheat Ridge City Code empowers the Director
of Community Development to decide upon applicants for administrative variances from the strict
application of the zoning district development standards that are not in excess of fifty (50) percent
of the standard.
II. CASE ANALYSIS
The applicant, Dennis Marshall, is requesting a variance as the property owner of 9 Morningside Drive.
The property is located two lots west from the intersection of Dawn Court and Morningside Drive. The
variance is being requested to legitimize an existing shed (Exhibit 1, Aerial).
The lot has an area of 14,633 square feet (0.34 acres) and currently contains a 2,429 square foot single -
family home with an 85 square foot covered porch, 334 square foot wood deck, and a 624 square foot
attached garage. The property is zoned Residential -One (R -1), a zoning district which provides for
high quality, safe, quiet and stable low- density residential neighborhoods. Current lot coverage is 24 %.
The R -1 lot coverage standard allows up to 25% lot coverage.
According to the Jefferson County Assessor, the property is occupied by a single - family ranch style
home, which is part of the Paramount Heights Part 3 Subdivision. The property is embedded in an R -1
neighborhood, and surrounded by single- family homes (Exhibit 2, Zoning). There is an 8 -foot change
in elevation from Morningside Drive to the rear property line.
The shed rests against the east side of the primary structure on the east side of the property. The shed is
7.5 feet wide by 16 feet long (120 square feet) and 9 feet high (Exhibit 3, Submittals). The shed is
supported by 6 wood posts on cinder blocks resting on the ground, with no foundation for the structure.

Administrative Variance
Case No. WA-13-17 / 9 Morningside Drive
The building division does not require a permit for an accessory structure 120 square feet or smaller.
However, when an accessory structure is attached to another building, a building permit is required.
Currently the shed rests up against the home with no attaching devise. Upon initial review, building
division is going to require the applicant to pour a foundation, and attach the shed to the primary
structure.
The reason for the variance is to legitimize the existing shed. The applicant contacted the city prior to
construction of the shed. At that time, staff raised concerns about the location of the shed relative to
the sideyard setback, and advised the applicant to obtain an Improvement Location Certificate (.lLC) to
determine current setbacks. The applicant did not contact staff again prior to construction.
The city was notified by a neighbor that construction of the shed was underway and that the accessory
structure was too close to the property line to the east. City staff went out to inspect the structure and
found the shed had encroached significantly into the side yard setback. Staff sent the applicant a letter
stating he was in violation of the setback. The applicant immediately applied for the setback variance
to justify the construction of the shed.
The applicant initially applied for a 3 foot variance from the zoning code. When the official mailing
was sent to the adjoining property owners, staff received a phone call from an adjacent property owner
stating that the Moot encroachment stated on the letter was incorrect.
Upon receiving this information, staff proceeded to visit the site again and took measurements of the
shed. Staff found that the shed encroached 7.5 feet, as opposed to the 3 feet initially reported by the
applicant. The misinformation in the original noticing required the property to be reposted and re-
noticed with the correct dimension in the variance request.
Public Notice Responses
During the 10 day public noticing period staff was contacted by a neighbor wishing to remain
anonymous. The property owner did not want to issue a formal complaint, but was not in support of
allowing the shed to remain in its current location. The property owner hoped the variance process
would "take its course" and the applicant would be required to move the shed.
I
In order to approve an administrative variance, the Community Development Director must
determine that the majority of the "criteria for review" listed in Section 26-115.C.4 of the City
Code have been met. Staff provides the following review and analysis of the variance criteria.
1. The property in question would not yield a reasonable return in use, service or
income if permitted to be used onky under the conditions allowed by regulation for
the district in which it is located.
If the request were denied, the property would continue to yield a reasonable return in use.
The property would continue to function as a single-family home, regardless of the
outcome of the variance request.
Administattive Variance
Case,Nlo. TV4-13-1719AIoi-iiiiigsitic Di-ii ,t?
Staff finds this criterion has not been met.
2. The variance would not alter the essential character of the localityr.
With the proposed shed, the property at' Morningside Drive is at 24.5% lot coverage.
24.5% is right at the threshold for the R -1 zoning district. This is a little high for the
surrounding properties as the average lot coverage for the 4 adjacent properties is 18%, but
not out of character for the neighborhood.
However, sheds similar to the one proposed are not common in the Paramount Heights
Subdivision. From a visual analysis of the neighborhood, of the 25 surrounding properties
4 (16%) of them have sheds at or under 120 square feet. All of these structures are not
attached to the primary residence.
Staff finds this criterion has not been met.
3. The applicant is proposing a substantial investment in the property with this
application, which would not be possible without the variance.
While the existing shed is all investment in the property, the location of the shed is in
violation of the R -1 standards. The total lot size is 14,633 square feet. The applicant has
approximately 2,500 square feet in the back yard to place the accessory structure that
would still allow access on the cast side of the property.
Staff finds this criterion has not been met
4. The particular physical surrounding, shape or topographical condition of the specific
property involved results 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.
The shape of the lot is skewed at a slight angle, and there is a substantial change in
elevation on the property. However, these conditions are not preventative to construct an
accessory structure in the back of the property.
Staff finds this criterion has not been met.
5. The alleged difficulty or hardship has not been created by any person presently
having an interest in the property.
Administrative Variance
Staff finds this criterion has not been met.
The request would not be detrimental to public welfare and is not expected to injure
neighboring property orimprovements. It would not hinder or impair the development of
the adjacent properties. The adequate supply of air and light would not be compromised
as a result of this request.
The request would not increase the congestion in the streets, nor would it cause an
obstruction to motorists on the adjacent streets. It is unlikely that the request would impair
property values in the neighborhood.
Staff finds this criterion has been met.
7. The unusual circumstances or conditions necessitating the variance request are
present in the neighborhood and are not unique to the property.
Lot configurations in the Paramount Heights Subdivision are not rectangular in shape.
These odd lot configurations can complicate structure location. However, a sensory
,review of aerial photos of the neighborhood indicates that when there are detached
accessory structures, they meet required setbacks.
Staff finds that this criterion has not been met.
Accessory structures are not required to meet building codes pertaining to the
accommodation of persons with disabilities.
Staff finds this criterion is 110L,applicable.
9. The application is in substantial compliance with the applicable standards set forth
the A rchitectural and Site Design Manual I
The Architectural and Site Design Manual does not apply to accessory structure design
residential neighborhoods.
Staff finds this criterion is nQLWplicable.
Administrative Variance
Case,Vo, ff"A-13-17,x 9Mt)riiiiigsitItDi-ile
Having found the application not in compliance with a majority of the review criteria, staff
recon DENIAL of a 7.5 foot side yard setback variance. Staff has found there are not
sufficient unique circumstances attributed to this request that would warrant approval of the
variance. Therefore, staff recommends denial for the following reasons:
With the following conditions:
1. The structure either be removed or relocated to another area of the property.
2. A proper foundation is poured to accommodate the structure's load.
3. A building pen shall be obtained prior to installation of the shed.

Re: Case No. WA- 1317
Dear Mr. Marshall:
Attached please find notice that your request for approval of a 7.5-foot administrative variance
from the 15-foot side yard setback requirement to legitimize an existing shed on property zoned
Residential -One (R-1) located at 9 Morningside Drive has been DENIED.
The denial requires that you take the following actions within ten (10) days of the denial
resolution being signed by the Community Development Director:
Option 1: The structure either be removed or relocated to another area of the property,
with relocation of the structure meeting required setback requirements of the R -
zoning district. Associated with the relocation of the structure, a proper foundation
must be poured to accommodate the structure.
Option 2: A decision by the community development director to deny an
administrative variance may be appealed to the Board of Adjustments. A written
appeal shall be submitted to the community development department by ten (10) days
of the signature of the Community Development Director. An appeal to the Board of
Adjustments will also require an additional application fee of $280.
Enclosed is a copy of the Denial of Administrative Variance Request and staff report, Please feel
free to contact me at (303) 235-2849 if you have any questions,
Sincerely,
Wade Sanner
wwwxi.wheatridgexoms
Denial of Administrative Variance Request
WHEREAS, an application for a variance was submitted for the property located at
9 Monlingside Drive referenced as Case No. WA -13 -17 / Marshall; and
WHEREAS, City staff has analyzed the variance request, relying on criteria listed in Section
26-115 of the Wheat Ridge Code of Laws and on information submitted in the case file; and
WHEREAS, the Community Development Department has property notified pursuant to Section
26-109 of the Wheat Ridge Code of Laws; and
NOW THEREFORE, be it hereby resolved that a 7.5-foot side yard setback variance from the 15-
foot side yard setback requirement for the purpose to legitimize an existing shed on property in the
Residential-One (R -1) zone district (Case No. WA -13 -17 / Marshall), is denied for property
located at 9 Momingside, based on the following findings of fact:
1. Upon denial the property would still function as a single-family home
2. The variance could alter the essential character of the locality.
3. There are other locations on the property that would accommodate a shed meeting required
setbacks.
4. The topography and configuration of the lot are not preventative in construction of an
accessory structure as there is ample room to locate the structure, elsewhere on the property.
5. The hardship has been self-imposed by persons having interest in the property.

The focus of this concept plan application is to provide a general development outline for the
redevelopment of existing late that are currently owned by Renewal Wheat Ridge.
The site's overall vision is to be a pedestrian—fritandly urban center, providing civic and commercial
services to the local community. The area was recently rezoned to Mixed Use — Commercial (MU —C).
The development is planned to move forward in a manner that is consistent with that established criteria.
Development will occur in phases, as the individual lots created in conjunction With this concept and
subsequent subdivision are sold and developed independently, in conformance with the City's Site Plan
process.
Adjacent public streets (W. 44th Avenue to the north and Uphom, St. to the east) are planned to be
improved to current standards with amenity zones and detached sidewalks. Undergrounding of the
overhead utility lines on these public street frontol is currently planned to occur by Wheat Ridge Public
Works.
Details regarding the final configuration of the identified lots are intentionally omitted from this Concept
Plan in the Interest of Providing flexibility in future use and design. Requirements of the future
development as related to access, drainage, open space and zoning are addressed in general herein.
RAINAGE CONSIDERATIONS:
A Final Drainage Report will be provided in conjunction with the planned Subdivision Application. Detention
and Water Quality requirements far Lot 1, Lot 2, and most of Lot 3 will be accommodated in a Regional
Facility that will be constructed on the eastern portion of Lot 1. The facility utilized on Lot 1 may be on
underground facility in order to maximize developable area. A portion of Lot 3, approximately 0,54 acres
on the western edge, will not be required to drain to the Regional Facility and will be allowed to flow
north to 441h Avenue per the historic pattern. The final design for storm water detention and water
quality for Lot 3 will need to comply with the Final Drainage Report and is subject to approval by the
Department of Public Works. All drainage improvernel Will be developed in conjunction with Urban
Drainage guidelines.
TQ
01PEN SPACE ON E 1!
open space will be considered from an aggregate perspective for the total development area. Open space
will meet at a minimum the requirements found in the Ml zone district. To help meet these
requirements, it is anticipated open space will be provided as follows-.
• Lot I — Will entall green space associated with the perheter area of the planned
deterition/viater quality facility.
• Lot 2 — Vill provide for an approximate 0.11 acre pork/community garden area.
III Lot 3 — Will provide for a park space or plaza of approximately 0. 15 acres which will be
integrated appropriately based on the final identified use of the lot at the time of its
development. This open space will be non—configuous and of high—quality design and serve as an
amenity and focal point for the entire development al
These open space items are provided in addition to open space that is developed 'incidentally with the
use of modem design principles in mixed use environments.
TRAFnc 1 R CU L A �T[O Ni ;
Future development should connect the street network generally in a grid fashion With pedestrian—friendly
design, Including sidewalks and orm-hily zones an all new streets. Internal traffic circulation will primarily
occur via the Vance St, extension south of its existing alignment at W. 44th Ave, A traffic signal may be
constructed as part of the final configuration of the subdivision at the Vance St /W. 44th Ave.
intersection. On the south edge of the development, W. 43rd Ave. Will be constructed to provide direct
access between Vance St. and Upham SL
East—west access between the 1st Bank lot and Vance St. will be encouraged with the final configuration
of Lot 3, although several design options exist that will allow for flexibility in future site plans for that
lot. The existing north/south access on the western edge of Lot 3 will remain operational until it is
integrated appropriately with the final site pion of Lot 3.
The Vance St. Right—of—Way has been extended to the southern boundary of the development for
potential future extension to the south. A southern extension of Vance St. and/or connection to the
existing commercial center is not planned with this development but is encouraged for other future
development to the South.
POTENTIAL PHASIR�.ANQ�L� ES
Development on the site will be phased based on the development of individual lots. Site Plans identifying
the development details of each lot will be provided by individual users in conformance with the City's
established zoning Criteria, this Concept Plan, and the existing Site Plan process. Architectural elements
and development of individual lots are not intended to be reviewed as part of this Concept Plan. The
summary of phasing included below is provided to share the anticipated path forward with future pad site
development.
W—L
Approximately 10,000 SF of retail that benefits from either proximity to existing foot traffic
and/or visibility from W. +41h Ave,
includes stormwater detention /voter quality facility for the subdivision.
