APPLICANT'S NAME: Jim and Jan Dent
LOCATION: 3235 Ames Street
. I, Ann Lazzeri, Secretary to the City of Wheat Ridge Board of Adjustment, do hereby certify that
the following Resolution was duly adopted in the City of Wheat Ridge, County of Jefferson,
State of Colorado on the 27th day of June. 2002.
Upon a motion by Board Member ABBOTT and second by Board Member ECHELMEYER, the
following resolution was stated:
WHEREAS, the applicant was denied permission by an administrative officer; and
WHEREAS, Board of Adjustment Application Case No. W A-02-05 is an appeal to this Board
from the decision of an administrative officer; and
WHEREAS, the property has been posted the fifteen days required by law; and there were no
protests registered against the application; and
WHEREAS, the relief applied for MAY be granted without detriment to the public welfare and
without substantially impairing the intent and purpose of the regulations governing the City of
Wheat Ridge.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that Board of Adjustment Application Case No.
W A-02-05 be, and hereby is, APPROVED.
TYPE OF VARIANCE: Ten-foot rear yard setback variance from the required ten-foot rear
yard setback resulting in a zero foot rear yard setback.
FOR THE FOLLOWING REASONS:
1. The Board finds persuasive the argument presented by the applicant that the existence of
a required 10 foot setback between the alley and garage door as proposed creates
considerable opportunity for illegal dumping and other activities to occur thereby
creating a public nuisance to the detriment of the neighborhood.
2. Signatures in approval of the requested variance were submitted by four immediately
adjacent neighbors.
3. The existing back yard does not appear to hold a practical alternative location for the
proposed garage.
4. Other structures occur along the alley with a zero foot or minimal setback.
5. The request would appear to present no injurious effects on public welfare, safety,
property values nor present an increase in fire hazard.
