State of Colorado, on the 26th day of June, 2008.
CASE NO: W A-08-04
APPLICANT'S NAME: Stuart Adams, Jr.
LOCATION OF INTERPRETATION: 4390 Hoyt Court
WHEREAS, the applicant was denied permission by an administrative officer; and
WHEREAS, Board of Adjustment Application Case Number W A-08-04 is an appeal to this
Board from the decision of an administrative officer 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 and without
substantially impairing the intent and purpose of the regulations governing the City of Wheat
Ridge.
WHEREAS, the property has been posted the fifteen days required by law; and
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that Board of Adjustment Application Case
Number W A-08-04 be, and hereby is APPROVED.
TYPE OF INTERPRETATION: An interpretation of the Official Zoning Map in accordance
with Section 26-203 for property located at 4390 Hoyt Court.
FOR THE FOLLOWING REASONS:
1. A substantial portion of the existing property, including most of the existing structure, is
currently zoned Commercial One.
2. Based on surrounding land uses and the location of the property, staff has determined that
Commercial One zoning is most appropriate for the southern portion of the subject
property in addition to the northern portion.
3. Making improvements to the property has been, and will continue to be, difficult ifboth
Commercial One and Residential Three zoning district boundaries remain in their current
state on the property.
4. Interpreting the zoning map to extend Commercial One zoning for the entire property
will ensure a more viable use of the property in the future.
5. Interpreting the zoning map to extend Commercial One zoning for the entire property
will provide an incentive to make improvements to a property that has been in disrepair
for a significant period of time.

6. Interpreting the zoning map to extend Commercial One presents no negative impacts to
immediately adjacent residential properties.
7. This interpretation allows an illogical split zoning which, in fact, divides a viable existing
structure currently zoned approximately 90% Commercial One and this condition to
become a logical single zone which addresses neighborhood conditions as they have
evolved.
8. Staff recommends approval.
9. Based on the analysis ofthe property, its history and surrounding neighborhood, staff and
the Board have concluded that the official zoning map should be modified to extend
Commercial One zoning for the entirety of the subject property as shown on the
Improvement Location Certificate. The official zoning map should be modified to reflect
the new zone district boundary.
