PUBLIC FORUM No one wished to speak at this time. 4. PUBLIC HEARING A. Case No.WA-17-0$: An application filed by Robert Alldredge for approval of a 20 - foot variance from the minimum rear yard setback requirement of 25 -feet for an accessory structure on property zoned Residential -Three (R-3) located at 6085 West 39th Place. The case was presented by Scott Cutler. He entered the contents of the case file and packet materials, the zoning ordinance and the digital presentation into the record. He stated all appropriate notification and posting requirements have been met and advised the board there was jurisdiction to hear the case. He reviewed the presentation and staff report. Board of Adjustment Minutes July 27, 2017 Member HOVLAND asked if there are drainage openings in the curb where the driveway will be located or is that a reflection in the water. Mr. Cutler explained it is a reflection. Member KUNTZ asked once the garage and driveway are constructed, if the curb will be cut or a roll over. Mr. Cutler said he is not sure if it will be a curb cut or roll over. If it is a curb cut a permit will have to be obtained through Public Works. The driveway is required to be paved. Member RICHMOND wanted to know how the fence will be configured for the sight distance with regards to safety. Mr. Johnstone explained that there is sight triangle requirements for alleys and streets, but not one for garages. Member PAGE asked if there is going to be a gate in the fence. Mr. Cutler explained that there is access on the other side of the property, so a gate will probably not be in the back fence area. Member KUNTZ added that because 401h. Avenue is not a collector or arterial street the sight distance is not as important due to the lower amounts of traffic and slower speeds. Member Richmond agreed with that statement, but believes the fence can be altered to alleviate the problem. Robert Alldredge, applicant 6085 West 3911 Place Mr. Alldredge explained that there are a few non -conforming setbacks in the neighborhood and he feels this variance will be consistent with the neighborhood. He also said there would be no altering of the fence because the fence line is consistent all the way down 40th Avenue. The garage is going to be contracted by Tuff Shed and access to the yard will be through a man door in the garage. Member KUNTZ asked if the garage will attached to the fence. Mr. Alldredge said the fence will connect to the garage. The fence will stop at the driveway then there will be a short connection of fence back to the garage corners. Member HOVLAND thought it might be a good idea to improve the visibility by angling the fence attachments to improve the sight distance. Board of Adjustment Minutes July 27, 2017 Mr. Alldredge said the continuity would be different in the fence, but he would be happy either way. Phil Benallo 6088 West 3911 Place Mr. Benallo explained that traffic in the neighborhood is fast. He added he is fine with the garage being build, but would suggest that there be improvements to the sight distance. Judy Scanlin 6095 West 3911 Place Ms. Scanlin explained her family has lived in the area for 58 years and is proud to live there. She isn't pleased to possibly walk out her back door and see and 11 foot garage. She stated there is not another garage along that 40th Avenue stretch. She is also worried about an accident happening due to poor sight distance. She added there is a drainage problem and asks the Board to reconsider this variance. Member KUNTZ stated that there is another garage along 40th Avenue at Harlan Street, so this would be the 2"d if approved. He also asked if the angling of the fence will improve the visibility or not. Member HOVLAND thinks the angling of the fence will improve the sight distance but doesn't know if it should be a requirement. Member RICHMOND thinks the angling of the fence should be a requirement and will improve the situation. Member Bell stated she does not understand the issues related to drainage, but if there is an issue will that be looked at before construction. Mr. Cutler explained for a project of this scope the additional drainage issues will probably not be looked at. Member PAGE asked if 40th Avenue is a standard street width. In looking at the picture on page 9 of the packet, there are cars parked on both sides of the street. It looks like there is sufficient room for a car to back out from a garage. Mr. Cutler said he is not sure if it is a standard street width today but it is typical for Wheat Ridge. Mr. Benallo added that the street width for 401h Avenue is normal, but the width of 39th Avenue is not due to the homes being build front to front. Member BELL reminded the Board that the City of Wheat Ridge was built under Jefferson County Code before it was incorporated. Some of the problems are inherited. Board of Adjustment Minutes July 27, 2017 3 Upon a motion by Member PAGE and seconded by Member BRADFORD, the following motion was stated: WHEREAS, application Case No. WA -17-08 was not eligible for administrative review; 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 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 NOW, THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that Board of Adjustment application Case No. WA -17-08 be, and hereby is, APPROVED TYPE OF VARIANCE: Request for approval of a 20 -foot variance from the minimum rear yard setback requirement of 25 -feet for an accessory structure on property zoned Residential -Three (R-3). FOR THE FOLLOWING REASONS: 1. The variance would not alter the essential character of the locality. 2. The alleged hardship has not been created by any person presently having an interest in the property. 3. The request would not be detrimental to the public welfare. 4. Existing conditions on the property present a particular and unique hardship 5. No objections were received regarding the variance request during the public notification period. WITH THE FOLLOWING CONDITIONS: 1. The design and architecture of the proposed garage shall be consistent with representations depicted in the application materials, subject to staff review and approval through review of a building permit. 2. The rear fence should angle 45 degrees from the existing fence to the n garage to improve the sight distance from garage to street. Motion carried 6-0. 5. CLOSE PUBLIC HEARING Board of Adjustment Minutes July 27, 2017 4 City of ,9�Wheat idge TO CASE MANAGER: CASE NO. & NAME: CITY OF WHEAT RIDGE PLANNING DIVISION STAFF REPORT Board of Adjustment DATE: July 21, 2017 Scott Cutler WA -17-08 / Alldredge ACTION REQUESTED: Approval of a 20 -foot (80%) variance from the 25 -foot rear yard setback requirement for rear yards which abut a public street, allowing a 24 -foot by 20 - foot garage to be constructed on property located at 6085 W. 39" Place and zoned Residential -Three (R-3). LOCATION OF REQUEST: 6085 W. 39" Place APPLICANT/OWNER: APPROXIMATE AREA: PRESENT ZONING: PRESENT LAND USE: Robert Alldredge 5,036 Square Feet (0.115 Acres) Residential -Three (R-3) Single Family Residential ENTER INTO RECORD: (X) CASE FILE & PACKET MATERIALS (X) ZONING ORDINANCE Location Map ie X i 1 f I K t� Site JURISDICTION: All notification and posting requirements have been met; therefore, there is jurisdiction to hear this case. I. REQUEST The applicant is requesting approval of a 20 -foot (80%) variance from the 25 -foot rear yard setback requirement for rear yards which abut a public street. The purpose of this variance is to allow for the homeowner to construct a 24 -foot by 20 -foot garage in the rear (northwest) corner of their yard. The garage is planned to comply with the required 5 -foot side yard setback. II. CASE ANALYSIS The variance is being requested so the property owner may construct a garage in the northwest corner of the lot which abuts W. 40th Avenue. The property is located on W. 39th Place between Ingalls Street and Harlan Street (Exhibit 1) in the Harlan Court Subdivision, described further in the Subdivision History section below. The existing house sits on a 5,036 square foot parcel and was originally constructed in 1952 per the Jefferson County Assessor. The property is zoned Residential -Three (R-3), as are all of the properties on W. 39th Place, W. 39th Avenue to the south, Ingalls Street to the west, and Harlan Street to the east. Properties across W. 401h Avenue to the north are zoned Residential -Two (R- 2), Commercial -One (C-1), and Residential -One C (R -1C) at the corner with Harlan Street (Exhibit 2). 6025 W. 40th Avenue, just to the northeast across W. 40th Avenue, is an active land use case pending City Council approval; the property is proposed to be rezoned to R -1C and split into two buildable single-family lots. The R-3 zone district provides for high quality, safe, quiet and stable medium to high-density residential neighborhoods, and prohibits activities of any nature which are incompatible with the medium to high-density residential character. In the R-3 zone district, a major accessory structure generally requires 5 -foot rear setbacks if at or under 10 feet tall or 10 -foot rear setbacks if over 10 feet tall. However, since the rear yard abuts a public street, W. 40th Avenue, the required setbacks increase to 25 feet for all structures. The proposed garage will therefore encroach upon this required setback, prompting the request for a 20 -foot variance from the rear setback (80%). The proposed garage location (Exhibit 3) is at the rear of the property along W. 40th Avenue. The garage is similarly sized and similarly located as other garages in the area. Part of the proposed garage aligns with an existing small shed on the neighboring property to the east. The elevation drawings provided by the applicant show a two -car garage with siding, a small window, and shingles (Exhibit 4). The site photographs provided (Exhibit 5) show the existing fence along W. 40th Avenue where the garage would be located. The fence is 6 feet tall and runs close to the substandard sidewalk along the street. The existing homes and accessory structures are mostly one story, and the proposed garage would be at or below the height of these structures. W. 40th Avenue acts as a rear access to the homes on the north side W. 39th Avenue; many residents store trash and recycling bins there, and have gates to access their properties. Many of the surrounding properties are non -conforming to the minimum lot size in the R-3 zone district, and have structures with non -conforming setbacks (Exhibit 6). Several garages on surrounding Board of Adjustment Case No. WA -17-08 /Alldredge streets are set back less than 25 feet. Most garages are set back in the range of 5 feet to 10 feet. The map provided in Exhibit 6 indicates that five properties in the immediate subdivision have non- conforming garages and/or the primary buildings are non -conforming. One additional property, 6088 W. 39'h Place, had setback variances approved in 2008 for all three street frontages. The surrounding area is a mix of single-family homes and duplexes, with two multifamily buildings at the corner of W. 39`h Place and Harlan Street. The applicant is proposing a substantial investment in the property, particularly since the existing home does not have a garage or additional storage space. Development Standards The parcel does not meet minimum standards for the R-3 zone district. The garage meets the standards for major accessory structures in residential zones. The following table compares the required R-3 development standards with the actual and proposed conditions: R-3 Development Standards: Required Actual Lot Area 7,500 square feet (min) 5,036 square feet Lot Width 60 feet (min) 50 feet Building Coverage 40% max —28.9% with garage) Major Accessory Building: Required Proposed Garage Building size 600 square feet (max) 480 square feet Height 15 feet (max) —11 feet at mid -roof) Rear Setback (abutting public street) 25 feet min 5 feet Subdivision History The property was subdivided as Lot 3 as part of the Harlan Court Subdivision approved by the Jefferson County Commissioners in 1951. The subdivision originally contained 10 lots. W. 39' Avenue was the southern boundary of the subdivision, Ingalls Street was the western boundary, W. 40`h Avenue was the northern boundary, and Harlan Street was the eastern boundary (Exhibit 7). At the time of construction of the majority of the homes, a private alley was built along the interior of the common shared lot lines of the subdivision. The alley was privately owned but named W. 39h Place. Many of the homes built fronted this interior roadway and were eventually addressed to it, including the subject property. The original Harlan Court Subdivision dedicated 15 -foot easements along the shared edges of the lots, which allowed W. 39a` Place to be created within a 30 -foot total easement. The private roadway known as W. 39h Place was not built to the City's standard road construction section for width and pavement thickness and was inadequately maintained by the homeowners. In 1987, the subdivision residents approached the city to inquire about dedication of this private roadway. In 1988, W. 39`h Place was dedicated to the City Council by a dedication plat, the "39`h Place Roadway Dedication Plat" (Exhibit 8). Dedication of 30 Place as a public street resulted in the creation of numerous nonconforming setbacks in the subdivision. Over time, lots 3, 4, 7, and 8 of the Harlan Court Subdivision were further re -subdivided subsequent to the original plat approval, which was noted on the dedication plat. Lot 3 was subdivided into parcels A (subject property, 6085 W. 39`h Place) and B, now 6065 W. 39th Place. Board ofAdjustment Case No. WA -17-08 /Alldredge III. VARIANCE CRITERIA In order to approve a variance, the Board of Adjustment must determine that the majority of the "criteria for review" listed in Section 26-115.C.4 of the City Code have been met. The applicant has provided their analysis of the application's compliance with the variance criteria (Exhibit 9). Staff provides the following review and analysis of the variance criteria. 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. If the request were denied, the property would continue to yield a reasonable return in use. The property would continue to function as a single-family residence, regardless of the outcome of the variance request. Staff finds this criterion has not been met. 2. The variance would not alter the essential character of the locality. A variance is not likely to alter the character of the locality. The R-3 zone district allows accessory buildings of the proposed size, and many surrounding properties have non- conforming setbacks for primary and accessory structures. At least five of the surrounding properties on W. 39th Place and W. 39th Avenue contain non -conforming structures or setbacks, including garages with setbacks of approximately 5 feet. A small shed located on the neighboring property to the west has a setback of approximately 5 feet. At least one property, 6088 W 39th Place, had a variance approved to reduce the required side and rear setbacks due to multiple street frontages. The general appearance and proposed materials of the garage will be consistent with other homes and garages in the neighborhood. 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, consistent with the Neighborhood Revitalization Strategy. Constructing a garage would allow the applicant to store vehicles currently parked in the front driveway. Building a garage that conforms to the rear setback requirements is not possible due to the narrow lot and placement of the existing home. The 25 -foot setback requirement on both sides of the home limits the ability of the applicant to make investments in the property. 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 Board of Adjustment Case No. WA -17-08 /Alldredge distinguished from a mere inconvenience if the strict letter of the regulations were carried out. Although the property is rectangular in shape and is flat, there are unique conditions related to the physical surroundings that hinder the development potential of the vacant portion of the property. Double -fronted lots (lots with streets along both the front and rear property lines) are prohibited in the current Subdivision Regulations. Given the existing 25 -foot setback requirements on both the front and rear boundaries, and the 5 -foot side setback requirements, a limited portion of the lot is buildable. It is a City policy that garage setbacks cannot be between 5 and 18 feet in length. The purpose of the regulation is to allow setback encroachments where there will not be the possibility of vehicles parked in the driveway extending into public rights-of-way (Sec. 26-625 C). While the intent of this policy was to regulate allowable setback encroachments for accessory buildings associated with a non -conforming primary structure, the policy has been applied to other land use cases. This further limits the location of the garage, since a setback greater than 18 feet would not allow enough space for a garage due to the position of the existing home. Five of the 11 lots in the subdivision have nonconforming setbacks adjacent to streets, and one additional property received variances to reduce the required setbacks (Exhibit 6, map). 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. Because the current owner neither platted the lot, nor constructed the home in its current location or orientation, the difficulties have not been created by any person presently having an interest in the property. Staff finds this criterion has 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 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 air and light would not be compromised as a result of this request. The request would not increase the congestion in the streets, nor would it cause an obstruction to motorists on the adjacent streets, and would not increase the danger of fire. It is unlikely that the request would impair property values in the neighborhood. Board ofAdjustment Case No. WA -17-08 /A11dredge The request does not comply with existing sight triangle requirements for driveways, which requires 15 feet from the edge of pavement. However, several existing garages on the surrounding streets, including another garage that faces W. 401h Avenue, do not comply with these regulations. West 40th Avenue carries minimal amounts of traffic at low speeds so this is not a concern. Staff finds this criterion has been met. 7. The unusual circumstances or conditions necessitating the variance request are present in the neighborhood and are not unique to the property. There are unusual circumstances which impact all of the homes in this subdivision due to the public dedication of W. 39th Place and the 25 -foot required setbacks from the front and rear property lines. The neighborhood is unique in that there are a large number of nonconforming setbacks, including encroachments to the extent of—or beyond—this application. Staff finds that this criterion has been met. 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. 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 review criteria, staff recommends APPROVAL of a 20 -foot (80%) variance from the required 25 -foot rear yard setback for rear yards which abut a public street. Staff has found that there are unique circumstances attributed to this request that would warrant approval of a variance. Therefore, staff recommends approval for the following reasons: 1. The variance would not to alter the essential character of the neighborhood. 2. The alleged hardship has not been created by any person presently having an interest in the property. 3. The request would not be detrimental to public welfare. 4. Existing conditions on the property present a particular and unique hardship. Board of Adjustment Case No. WA -17-08 /Alldredge 5. No objections were received regarding the variance request during the public notification period. With the following conditions: 1. The design and architecture of the proposed garage shall be consistent with representations depicted in the application materials, subject to staff review and approval through review of a building permit.

Currently there isn't any garage on the property, therefore the addition of a 2 car detached garage will make the property more functional and usable. 2. As the garage would be added to the rear of the property and conform to the general neighborhood, the character would not really change as a number of garages and homes are located within 5 feet of a front or rear property line. 3. If the variance is not granted, I would not build any garage on the property. 4. The use and configuration of the garage would be compatible with the neighborhood. 5. The request for the variance is common in older neighborhoods in order to bring the property up to normal use in the 21' century. 6. As the proposed garage would be at the rear of the property, there wouldn't really be any adverse impact on the neighbor's property. 7. There are many structures that sit within 5 feet of the front or rear property line and my 1 story garage is not as tall or large as some of the other structures in the immediate neighborhood.

Currently there isn't any garage on the property, therefore the addition of a 2 car detached garage will make the property more functional and usable. 2. As the garage would be added to the rear of the property and conform to the general neighborhood, the character would not really change as a number of garages and homes are located within 5 feet of a front or rear property line. 3. If the variance is not granted, I would not build any garage on the property. 4. The use and configuration of the garage would be compatible with the neighborhood. 5. The request for the variance is common in older neighborhoods in order to bring the property up to normal use in the 21' century. 6. As the proposed garage would be at the rear of the property, there wouldn't really be any adverse impact on the neighbor's property. 7. There are many structures that sit within 5 feet of the front or rear property line and my 1 story garage is not as tall or large as some of the other structures in the immediate neighborhood.
