TYPE OF VARIANCE: A 5' front yard and a 15' side yard setback
PURPOSE: To construct a single family home
FOR THE FOLLOWING REASONS:
1. It appears that no other houses immediately adjacent have
apparent encroachments of this magnitude. Therefore, it can
be assumed the essential character of the neighborhood may be
negatively impacted.
2. The owner has had the property for several years and used.. it
as a horse-property. They were aware of the Denver water
Board easement and therefore it can be assumed the property
is salable in its present condition.
3. Testimony was provided that the original granter of the
easement did so with an understanding-that the easement would
likely prevent building on this site.
4. An owner of the adjacent house has accomplished the task of
running a gas and water- line under the Denver_Water Board __
pipeline.
5. Adjacent homes are larger than that possible under the
proposed request and this would negatively affect the
neighborhood.
6. A petition has been submitted with signatures of eleven
adjacent property owners opposing this variance request.
VOTE: YES: Abbott; Echelmeyer, Hovland and Howard
No: Walker
DISPOSITION: Variance request denied by a vote of 4-1.
