CERTIFICATE OF RESOLUTION
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 26th day of October, 2006.
CASE NO: WA-06-15 (A)
APPLICANT'S NAME: Richard Moreno
LOCATION: 6671 West 26th Avenue
WHEREAS, the applicant was denied permission by an administrative officer; and
WA-06-15 (A) 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 in recognition
that there WERE NO protests registered against it; 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.
WA-06-15 (A) be, and hereby is, APPROVED.
TYPE OF VARIANCE: An 800 square foot variance to the 1000 square foot maximum
resulting in an 1800 square foot barn on property zoned Residential One.
FOR THE FOLLOWING REASONS:
1. The increase in size of the existing barn and attached structures is negligible as explained by
staff during the hearing. The increase in structure size will accommodate covered storage for
hay.
2. The increase in square footage to the barn will not change the character ofthe locality. There
are at least two accessory structures in the neighborhood which are at least 1,200 square feet
in size. The property directly to the north has an outbuilding approximately 1,200 square feet
in size.
3. Many adjacent properties have multiple outbuildings which create a cluttered landscape. The
addition to the existing barn will create one cohesive structure on this property and remove
two existing ancillary structures.
