CASE NO: WA-99-04
APPLICANT'S NAME: Ken Billingsley
LOCATION: 4240 Iris Street
Upon a motion by Board Member ABBOTT, seconded by Board Member THIESSEN, the
following resolution was stated:
WHEREAS, the applicant was denied permission by an administrative officer; and
WHEREAS, Board of Adjustment Application Case No. WA-99-04 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 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; and
WHEREAS, the Board finds that, based upon all evidence presented and based upon the Board's
conclusions relative to the criteria given for this variance, the evidence and facts in this case do
support the granting of this request.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that Board of Adjustment Application Case No.
WA-99-04 be, and hereby is, APPROVED.
TYPE OF VARIANCE: Request for variance from Section 26-30 (N) of the Wheat Ridge
Code of Laws, which requires the placement of pavement for the first 25 feet of a residential
driveway.
FOR THE FOLLOWING REASONS:
1. Approval of this request will not be detrimental to the public welfare and is compatible
with the essential character of the neighborhood.
2. Iris Street in this neighborhood has no curb or gutter.
Twenty-five percent of the twenty-one houses on the street, at this time, have gravel
driveways.

4. The property has had the existing driveway for almost fifty years and appears to be
causing no problem relating to the intent of the ordinance.
Due to the existing width of Iris Street, properties which have paved their driveways have
left several feet unpaved at the property line thereby compromising the intent of the
ordinance.

THIESSEN

DISPOSITION: Request for variance from Section 26-30 (I) of the Wheat Ridge Code of
Laws, which requires the placement of pavement for the first 25 feet of a residential driveway
was granted.
