J Kenneth Johnston AICP — Community Devel pment Director Date 1*�Ile hea Wt �idge CITY OF WHEAT RIDGE PLANNING DMSION STAFF REPORT TO: Community Development Director CASE MANAGER: Joshua Botts DATE: November 17, 2014 CASE NO. & NAME: WA -14-18 / Quail Hollow ACTION REQUESTED: Approval of a 3' (10%) setback variance from the 30' maximum; resulting in a 27' side yard setback for Lot 12 of Quail Hollow Subdivision or 3325 Quail Street. LOCATION OF REQUEST: 3325 Quail Street APPLICANT(S): Quail Hollow Patio Homes PROPERTY OWNER(S): Quail Hollow Patio Homes APPROXIMATE AREA: 16,000 Square Feet PRESENT ZONING: Residential -One (R-1) PRESENT LAND USE: Vacant Lot ENTER INTO RECORD: (X) CASE FILE & PACKET MATERIALS (X) ZONING ORDINANCE LOCATION MAP Case No. WA-14-18/Quail Hollow Site JURISDICTION: All notification and posting requirements have been met; therefore, there is jurisdiction to make a decision regarding this case. I. REQUEST The applicant, Quail Hollow Patio Homes, is requesting approval of a variance to Section 26-205 of the Zoning and Development Code for a variance to the side yard setback requirement adjacent to a public street from thirty feet to twenty-seven feet. The purpose of this variance is to allow the applicant to construct a new one -family dwelling on the property at 3325 Quail Street (Exhibit 1, Aerial Photo). Section 26-115.0 (Variances and Waivers) of the Wheat Ridge City Code empowers the Director of Community Development to decide upon applications for a variance from the strict application of the zoning code, if the variance request is not in excess of fifty (50) percent of development. If the applicant is denied administrative approval by the Director of Community Development, the decision may be appealed to the Board of Adjustment. II. CASE ANALYSIS Property Description/ Existing Conditions The applicant is proposing to build a single family dwelling on Lot 12 of the Quail Hollow Subdivision. In order to accomplish this, a three foot front yard setback variance is required. Lot 12 is 16,000 square feet in size and the proposed single family dwelling's footprint will be roughly 2569 square feet (Exhibit 2, Quail Hollow Plat). Lot 12, to be addressed as 3325 Quail Street, is zoned Residential -One (R-1), a zone district established to provide high quality, safe, quiet, and stable low-density residential neighborhoods, and which prohibits activities of any nature which are incompatible with the low-density residential character. The subject property is located on the west side of Quail Street and north of the proposed W. 33`d Avenue extension. The subject property is surrounded to the north, south, and west by residential properties zoned R-1. Across Quail Street to the east are properties zoned Residential -One A (R-1 A) which include Prospect Elementary School and multiple single family dwellings (Exhibit 3, Zoning Map). The property was recently platted as part of the Quail Hollow Subdivision. The subdivision which contains 9.145 acres is located on the western side of Quail Street and contains 13 lots. There were two individual parcels that were combined to make the subdivision. The larger parcel, containing 7.882 acres is located roughly 177 feet to the west of Quail Street. The other parcel which has direct frontage on Quail contains 1.26 acres and has a single family residence on it with open area south of the home. This parcel was acquired to procure access from Quail Street for the rest of the land to the west. Lot 12 was subdivided from the existing home and the southern 78 feet of the same parcel was dedicated for right-of-way for West 33'd Avenue to allow for the extension Quail to the west. Case No. WA-14-18/Quail Hollow The Quail Hollow Subdivision will require an extension of 33`d Avenue west of Quail Street where it currently dead ends. In order for alignment with 33`d east of Quail, the proposed right-of-way (ROW) for the 33rd Avenue extension bends to the north and effectively narrows the rear/western portion of Lot 12. Lot 12 measures 100' at the eastern property line but is only 79' wide at the western property line. The reduction in lot width toward the rear of Lot 12 is compounded by being a corner lot and is therefore subject to 30 -foot yard setbacks from both Quail Street and 33`d Avenue extension. (Exhibit 4, Site Plan) The single family dwelling planned for construction on Lot 12 extends into the thirty foot side yard setback adjacent to the 33`d Avenue ROW at only the southwest, rear corner of the home, and for less than one foot. The only alternative to the proposed footprint would be to "flip" the layout of the house to meet the thirty foot side yard setback. The applicant has expressed why this alternative is less desirable: • The home's garage would be placed on the southeast corner, the side nearest to the Quail Street and 33`d Avenue intersection. The proposed home will be the first built in the subdivision and is serving as the model home. It will abut the entrance into the subdivision. • The home would lose a significant aesthetic benefit to the new development by placing the "living side" of the home to the north side of Lot 12. By doing so, the garage would be the first view of the new homes potentially downplaying the high quality of construction and character of the development. Ultimately the variance request would result in a permitted 27'side yard setback on the southern portion of Lot 12. While the proposed home is less than a foot from being compliant with the setback, the applicant has requested a three foot variance to avoid a situation where a very small mistake in construction could require a second variance. The proposed one -family dwelling is compliant with all other development standards in the zoning R-1 district. Public Notice Responses During the 10 -day public posting period, no written comments were received in regards to the proposed setback variance. III. VARIANCE CRITERIA The Director of Community Development shall base his decision in consideration of the extent to which the applicant demonstrates that a majority of the "criteria for review" listed in Section 26- 115.C.4 of the City Code have been met. The applicant has provided an analysis of the application's compliance with the variance criteria (Exhibit 4, Letter of Request). Staff provides the following review and analysis. 1. The property in question would not yield a reasonable return in use, service or income if permitted to be used only under the conditions allowed by regulation for the district in which it is located. Case No. WA-14-18/Quail Hollow As mentioned, the orientation of the house could be "flipped" and the existing regulations could be met. Other options would include utilization of a different floor plan and/or layout. The existing regulations do allow for a reasonable return in use but the conditions allowed by the regulations are just not ideal for the proposed layout. Staff finds this criterion has not been met. 2. The variance would not alter the essential character of the locality. The variance is not likely to alter the character of the locality. The requested encroachment into the front yard setback is minor (10%), and the proposed architectural design of the one family dwelling is compatible with the character of the area. Staff finds this criterion has been met. 3. The applicant is proposing a substantial investment in the property with this application, which would not be possible without the variance. The applicant is proposing a substantial investment in the property that will result in a positive outcome. The investment in the development of this lot will substantially increase the value of property and could increase the value of neighboring properties. If the applicant was not requesting a setback variance, physically the single family dwelling could still be constructed on Lot 12. However, the applicant has suggested that without the variance the house would have to be flipped. This would put the garage and the driveway on the south side of the lot and put the access close to the Quail and 33`d Avenue intersection. As the model home for the subdivision, this could result in a negative appearance with the "garage dominant' at the subdivision entrance. Staff finds this criterion has been met. 4. The particular physical surrounding, shape or topographical condition of the specific property involved results in a particular and unique hardship (upon the owner) as distinguished from a mere inconvenience if the strict letter of the regulations were carried out. The lot has an odd shape because of the needed alignment for the street. The right-of-way alignment for the proposed new street extension narrows the rear (west) portion of the lot which otherwise exceeds the lot size standard for the R-1 zone district. The reduction in the rear lot width is compounded by Lot 12 being a corner lot and therefore subject to the thirty foot setback from both Quail Street and 33rd Avenue. Staff finds this criterion has been met. 5. The alleged difficulty or hardship has not been created by any person presently having an interest in the property. 4 Case No. WA-14-18/Quail Hollow The hardship described above relates to the location of the proposed structure, which will be built upon a lot that was zoned prior to the current owner having an interest in the property. Since the City had established zoning setback requirements prior to the purchase of the property, the compliance of the property in relation to the development standards is the responsibility of the owner. Staff finds this criterion has not been met. 6. The granting of the variance would not be detrimental to the public welfare or injurious to other property or improvements in the neighborhood in which the property is located, by, among other things, substantially or permanently impairing the appropriate use or development of adjacent property, impairing the adequate supply of light and air to adjacent property, substantially increasing the congestion in public streets or increasing the danger of fire or endangering the public safety, or substantially diminishing or impairing property values within the neighborhood. The request would not be detrimental to the public welfare and would not be injurious to neighboring property or improvements. It would not hinder or impair the development of the adjacent properties. The adequate supply of light and air would not be compromised as a result of this request. The request would not increase the congestion in the streets. It would neither impede the sight distance triangle, nor would it cause an obstruction to motorists on the adjacent streets. Approval of the variance could have a positive impact on the aesthetics of the new home without the "garage dominant" view at the intersection to the development. Staff finds this criterion has been net. 7. The unusual circumstances or conditions necessitating the variance request are present in the neighborhood and are not unique to the property. Tile unusual conditions are unique to the property. Lot 12's narrow west side is caused by the surrounding properties influence on forming the lot. The proposed 33rd Avenue extension is required to bend around the northeast property lines of Applewood Baptist Church; reducing Lot 12's rear width. No other lot in the Quail Hollow subdivision is impacted by the bend in 33"' Avenue. Staff finds that this criterion has not been inet. 8. Granting of the variance would result in a reasonable accommodation of a person with disabilities. Single family homes and their accessory buildings are not required to meet building codes pertaining to the accommodation of persons with disabilities. Staff finds this criterion is not applicable. Case No. WA-14-18/Quail Hollotir 9. The application is in substantial compliance with the applicable standards set forth in the Architectural and Site Design Manual The Architectural and Site Design Manual does not apply to single and two family dwelling units. Staff finds this criterion is not applicable. IV. STAFF CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS Having found the application in compliance with the majority of the applicable review criteria, staff recommends approval of the variance to reduce the minimum side yard setback adjacent to a public street for property zoned R -I located at 3325 Quail Street for the following reasons: 1.) The variance will not alter the essential character of the surrounding locality. 2.) The applicant is proposing a substantial investment that will benefit the neighborhood. 3.) The street alignment for the West 33'd Avenue extension creates a physical hardship. 4.) The request would not be detrimental or injurious to the public welfare.

This request is described in more detail, below. Tri addition to this cover letter and the following explanation and justification of file Variance request I have also attached an executed Land Use Application, and Variance Submittal checklist. A check for the $200 application/processing fee is also included. Background: The City has recently approved the Quail Hollow Subdivision. To accommodate certain pre- existing site conditions, the ROW for the extension of 33rd Avenue to the west from its intersection with Quail SLreet,'switigs' to the North. This curve in the ROW for 33^3 impinges on or ellettively narrows the rear (west) portion of Lot 12, which is otherwise a well -sized lot, fully meeting City standards for a lot in the R-1 District. The reducrion In lot width toward the rear of the lot is compounded by Lot 1.2 being a corner lot and therefor subject to a large 30' sett ack for both the front (Quail St) and side (33M). The home planned for construction on Lot 12 extends into the 30' side yard setback adjacent to the 33rd Avenue ROW at only the southwest, near corner of the home, and for less than 1 foot. Another corner near the rear of the home mect_s the setback but is less than 1 foot from also being within the 30' side yard setback. Although the homes footprin- could be 'flipped' sidc to side and meet the 30' side yard setback, that would then place the home's garage on this home's south east corner, tate side nearest the Quail St/331d Avenue intersection. Request: THE OWNER REQUESTS THAT THE EXISTING 30' SIDE YARD SE -(BACK APPLYING TO THE FRONTAGE OF LOT 12 ON 33Rd AVENUE BE REDUCED TO 27' (A REDUCTION OF TOR 10%) FOR ONLY A PORTION OF LOT 13. THE FRONT, REAR AND SIDEYARD SETBACKS ON THE NORTH WOULD REMAIN IN EFFECT AS ESTABLISHED BY CITY REGULATIONS. 162 S. Corona SL • Nnver, ('U 80219 (303)30.5-5019 • Email: %M&owd4gwestnet Case No. WA-14-18/Quail Hollow THE REDUCED SETBACK WOULD APPLY ONLY TO THAT PORTION OF LOT 12 WHERE THE NORTH ROW OF 33" AVENUE IS NORTH OF THE LINE WHERE THE NORTH ROW OF 33" "' INTERSECTS WITH THE ROW OF QUAIL STREET, AND SHALL APPLY TO ONLY THE PRINCIPAL RESIDENTIAL STRUCTURE. The requested variance is slightly larger than the minimum absolutely necessary to build the home on this lot as intended. The'extra' is only to provide approximately ]'more to work with' than the absolute minimum, primarily to avoid a situation where a very small mistake in staking the home in the field would require another variance request to address. Justificatiou: Maintaining the garage and driveway access to Quail Street on the north side of Lot 11 is a safer condition than the driveway being on the south side of the lot, nearer the Quail/33rd intersection. This placement of the home also has a significant aesthetic benefit to the community by placing the 'living side' of the home to the south side of Lot 12, adjacent to 33rd Street, where It Is the most visible part of the home for persons traveling north bound on Quail, and/or west hound on 33^4. Response to Variance Review Criteria: 1. Re "...return in use...or income..." No relief sought using this criteria. 2. Re ..."uo allegation of essential character of locality..." It is clear that this minor reduction in a large 3U' setback fronting a minor public street will not alter the essential character of the community. 3. Re Effect on, %.substantlal Investment..." Granting the requested minor variance will result in a safer condition, and will improve the street appeal and entry into a new community of high value homes, therefor helping to achieve a level of quality and value not possible without this variance. h. Re hardship resulting from, "...physical surrounding, shape or topographical condition..." Although this is a new subdivision it is ort an infill site and therefor subject to a number of constraints that limit the design of the subdivision. A unique combination of City regulations and site conditions resulted Lot 12 being designed as it is, and these pre- existing conditions are particular and unique to this site and were not created by the owner. S. Re "...unique hardship. -not created by person having an interest In the property..." See response to #4, above. b. Re "...(action) detrimental to public welfare -.4r substantially diminishing or impairing property values_.' Granting this minor variance will in no way be detrimental to the public welfare ... in fact it will result in a safer condition by placing a driveway to the north side of the site, where there is a reduced chance of conflict between the use of driveway and traffic using the Quail/33,s intersection. This requested variance affects the placement of the home relatively to only the ROW of 33^4 Street, City setbacks relative to adjacent properties Case No. TVA-14-18/Quail Hollow remain unchanged and no property values will bed iminished. This variance results in a more aesthetically pleasing. higher quality construction, enhancing neighborhood property values. 7. Re "...unique circumstances in neighborhood ... not unique to this property--, Existing property ownership patterns in the neighborhood, i.e., the location and extent of pre-existing property boundaries affected both the design and placement of the extension of 33rd adjacent to Lot 12, and the location and dimensions and location of Lot 12 itself. These neighborhood conditions resulted in the final design for Lot 12 and the need to request a small variance affecting only a small portion of Lot 1Z. 8. RE ".-accommodation of person with disabilitles..." No relief sought under this criteria. 9. Re "...substantial compliance with applicable standards..." The Quail Hollow Subdivision, of which this lot is a part, has already been found to be in substantial compliance with applicahle City standards, and that finding will not he altered in any significant way by this minor variance request Thank you for your guidance in the preparannn of the required material. Please do not hesitate to contact me ifyou have any questions or need additional information.

This request is described in more detail, below. In addition to this cover letter and the following explanation and justification of the Variance request I have also attached an executed Land Use Application, and Variance Submittal checklist. A check for the $200 application/processing fee is also included. Background: The City has recently approved the Quail Hollow Subdivision. To accommodate certain pre- existing site conditions, the ROW for the extension of 33rd Avenue to the west from its intersection with Quail Street, 'swings' to the North. This curve in the ROW for 33rd impinges on or effectively narrows the rear (west) portion of Lot 12, which is otherwise a well -sized lot, fully meeting City standards for a lot in the R-1 District. The reduction in lot width toward the rear of the lot is compounded by Lot 12 being a corner lot and therefor subject to a large 30' setback for both the front (Quail St) and side (33rd). The home planned for construction on Lot 12 extends into the 30' side yard setback adjacent to the 33rd Avenue ROW at only the southwest, rear corner of the home, and for less than 1 foot. Another corner near the rear of the home meets the setback but is less than 1 foot from also being within the 30' side yard setback. Although the home's footprint could be'flipped' side to side and meet the 30' side yard setback, that would then place the home's garage on this home's south east corner, the side nearest the Quail St/33rd Avenue intersection. Request: THE OWNER REQUESTS THAT THE EXISTING 30' SIDE YARD SETBACK APPLYING TO THE FRONTAGE OF LOT 12 ON 33RD AVENUE BE REDUCED TO 27'(A REDUCTION OF XOR 10%) FOR ONLY A PORTION OF LOT 13. THE FRONT, REAR AND SIDEYARD SETBACKS ON THE NORTH WOULD REMAIN IN EFFECT AS ESTABLISHED BY CITY REGULATIONS. 162-S. Corona St. - Denver, CO 80209 (303) 345-5019 - Email: wilsoncd@gwest.net THE REDUCED SETBACK WOULD APPLY ONLY TO THAT PORTION OF LOT 12 WHERE THE NORTH ROW OF 33RD AVENUE IS NORTH OF THE LINE WHERE THE NORTH ROW OF 33RD INTERSECTS WITH THE ROW OF QUAIL STREET, AND SHALL APPLY TO ONLY THE PRINCIPAL RESIDENTIAL STRUCTURE. The requested variance is slightly larger than the minimum absolutely necessary to build the home on this lot as intended. The 'extra' is only to provide approximately 1' more to 'work with' than the absolute minimum, primarily to avoid a situation where a very small mistake in staking the home in the field would require another variance request to address. justification: Maintaining the garage and driveway access to Quail Street on the north side of Lot 12 is a safer condition than the driveway being on the south side of the lot, nearer the Quail/33rd intersection. This placement of the home also has a significant aesthetic benefit to the community by placing the 'living side' of the home to the south side of Lot 12, adjacent to 33rd Street, where it is the most visible part of the home for persons traveling north bound on Quail, and/or west bound on 33rd. Response to Variance Review Criteria: 1. Re "...return in use ... or income..." No relief sought using this criteria. 2. Re ..."no alteration of essential character of locality..." It is clear that this minor reduction in a large 30' setback fronting a minor public street will not alter the essential character of the community. 3. Re Effect on, "...substantial investment..." Granting the requested minor variance will result in a safer condition, and will improve the street appeal and entry into a new community of high value homes, therefor helping to achieve a level of quality and value not possible without this variance. 4. Re hardship resulting from, "...physical surrounding, shape or topographical condition..." Although this is a new subdivision it is on an infill site and therefor subject to a number of constraints that limit the design of the subdivision. A unique combination of City regulations and site conditions resulted Lot 12 being designed as it is, and these pre- existing conditions are particular and unique to this site and were not created by the owner. 5. Re "...unique hardship ... not created by person having an interest in the property..." See response to #4, above. 6. Re "...(action) detrimental to public welfare ... or substantially diminishing or impairing property values..." Granting this minor variance will in no way be detrimental to the public welfare ... in fact it will result in a safer condition by placing a driveway to the north side of the site, where there is a reduced chance of conflict between the use of driveway and traffic using the Quail/33rd intersection. This requested variance affects the placement of the home relatively to only the ROW of 33rd Street; City setbacks relative to adjacent properties remain unchanged and no property values will be diminished. This variance results in a more aesthetically pleasing, higher quality construction, enhancing neighborhood property values. 7. Re "...unique circumstances in neighborhood ... not unique to this property..." Existing property ownership patterns in the neighborhood, i.e., the location and extent of pre-existing property boundaries affected both the design and placement of the extension of 33rd adjacent to Lot 12, and the location and dimensions and location of Lot 12 itself. These neighborhood conditions resulted in the final design for Lot 12 and the need to request a small variance affecting only a small portion of Lot 12. 8. RE "...accommodation of person with disabilities... - No relief sought under this criteria. 9. Re "...substantial compliance with applicable standards..." The Quail Hollow Subdivision, of which this lot is a part, has already been found to be in substantial compliance with applicable City standards, and that finding will not be altered in any significant way by this minor variance request. Thank you for your guidance in the preparation of the required material. Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any questions or need additional information. Regards, Steve Wilson Meredith Reckert From: Steve Wilson <wilsoncd@q.com> Sent: Tuesday, September 30, 2014 1:37 PM To: Meredith Reckert Cc: Bill Lyons; Mike Thomas Subject: Qauil Hollow Lot 12 admin variance Attachments: Quail Hollow Lot 12().pdf Follow Up Flag: Flag Status: Follow up Flagged Meredith Per your request I have sent the sketch showing the placement of a home on this lot. As you can see we miss the 30' side yard (corner lot) setback by just .8 ft. at the rear corner of the house, because of the curvature of the new 33rd street. We are sending you this to see if staff would consider an administrative variance of the required 30' side yard of say ... no more more than 5-10%? While it's true that this is a new subdivision and that theoretically, we could have designed it to avoid this issue we were actually constrained by a number of factors including a requirement of the Hill's that this lot be platted at the minimum width allowed to preserve as much space between this lot and their existing home. Additionally, we have the unique circumstance of 33rd curving into rear portion of the lot. That fact, coupled with the City's unique requirement that corner lots utilize the same setback for front and side yards for corner lots, has put us in this position. Honestly, we could 'flip' or'mirror" the house plan and meet the existing setbacks. But this puts the garage on the SE corner of the house, facing the beautiful entrance to Quail Hollow. While this works for meeting setbacks, I hate garages blocking the south (solar gain) side of homes. Bill Lyon's view is that he strongly prefers having the 'living side' of a home at the landscaped entry to this new, high-end community instead of a garage and concrete driveway facing people as they turn into the community. Finally, the setback relief we are seeking wouldn't even need to apply to the entire lot frontage alone 33rd. It's only 1 or 2 corners along the curve of 33rd that are affected... probably less than 1-2% of the home's footprint. Another alternative would be to allow us to move the house 1-2 feet to the north, preserving the full 30' along the entire curve of 33rd. We're happy to meet with you to further discuss. Thanks for your attention to this matter. Best, Steve Wilson 303 345 5019
