WHEREAS, Board of Adjustment Application Case No. W A-04-05 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 in recognition
that there WERE NO protests registered against it; 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-04-05 be, and hereby is, APPROVED.
TYPE OF VARIANCE: A waiver of Section 26-502.E.I (landscaping buffering for parking
lots), specifically the requirement of a six-foot-high view-obscuring fence on property zoned
Commercial-One (C-I).
FOR THE FOLLOWING REASONS:
I. There would be a benefit derived by the neighborhood if this request were granted.
Patrons of the park could utilize the parking area of the subject parcel during non-
business hours and have unobstructed access to the park.
2. Granting of this request will create a more seamless transition between the subject parcel
and the park. The lack of a six-foot fence will give the appearance of cohesiveness
between the subject parcel and the park, and will also provide for visual access for safety
reasons.
3. Granting of the request will not be injurious to other properties in the area.

4. While the request itself is a self-created hardship, the benefits to be derived by the
neighborhood, and not the applicant, outweigh the effects of the view-obscuring fence.
