RE: Case No. WA-05-08/9505 West 44th Avenue
Dear Mr. Cox:
On May 26, 2005 the Board of Adjustment continued the above case indefinitely. In order to
proceed with the variance, the public hearing must be rescheduled. We have not been contacted by
either yourself or the property owner expressing that this case will be further pursued. This letter is
to inform you that this case will be taken off of our active case list for variances within 30 days of
this letter, unless we are contacted requesting otherwise.
This does not eliminate the possibility of rescheduling this variance request for a public hearing at a
later date. Please contact me at 303.235.2845 if you have any questions.
Sincerely,
Jeff Hirt

4. PUBLIC HEARING
A. Case No. WA-05-08: An application filed by Brothers Fence Company
for approval of a variance to the 6-foot maximum fence height standard
under Section 26-603 resulting in an 8-foot high fence for property zoned
Commercial-One and located at 9505 West 44`h Avenue.
Staff recommended continuance of this case so that issues resolving access to
West 45`h Avenue could be further discussed.
Board of Adjustment
05-26-05
It was moved by Board Member BLAIR and seconded by Board Member
BYBEE to continue Case No. WA-05-08 to the June Board meeting. The
motion passed unanimously.
B. Case No. WA-05-09: An application filed by the Wheat Ridge Housing
Authority for approval of a 5-foot side yard setback variance from the 10-foot
side setback requirement for detached garages over 8 feet in height on property
zoned Residential Three and located at 4501 Everett Street.
This case was presented by Jeff Hirt. He entered all pertinent documents into the record
and advised the Board there was jurisdiction to hear the case. He reviewed the staff
report and digital presentation. Staff recommended approval of the application for
reasons outlined in the staff report.
Board Member HOVLAND commented that this request for a variance is due to a zoning
change for the R-1 zone district to require setbacks relative to building height and asked
why this requirement would apply to multi-family dwellings. Meredith Reckert
explained that R-3 zoning also allows single family structures and therefore the setback
requirement applies to all structures in the zone district.
Board Member BYBEE commented that he could find no reasons not to approve this
application.
Board Member HOWARD suggested that setback requirements be revisited citing an
example that presently a 20-foot setback would be required for two garages built adjacent
to each other.
Jerry DiTullio
3250 Newland Street
Mr. DiTullio, chairman of the Wheat Ridge Housing Authority, was sworn in by Vice
Chair BELL. He stated that, following the denial of a previous request for variance, the
number of garages for the project has been reduced from six to five. The depth of the
garages has also been reduced from 24 to 21 feet. He asked the Board to approve the
variance based on the following reasons:
• There has been no neighborhood opposition.
• Staff has recommended approval.
• The Housing Authority will be improving a dilapidated property.
• Garages will reduce on-street parking.
• The 10-foot setback on this particular property serves no purpose in that the garages
would face a back yard and would not therefore infringe on the adjacent property.
Approval of the variance would not set a precedent for any other future projects
within the city.
