APPLICANT'S NAME: Leroy Kuczek
LOCATION OF REQUEST: 10561 West 38` Avenue
WHEREAS, Case No. WA -12 -01 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.
NOW, THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that Board of Adjustment application Case No.
WA -12 -01 be, and hereby is APPROVED.
TYPE OF VARIANCE: A 5 -foot side yard setback variance from the 15 -foot side yard
setback requirement resulting in a 10 -foot side yard setback for property zoned Residential -One.
FOR THE FOLLOWING REASONS:
1. The variance would not alter the essential character of the locality.
2. The applicant is proposing a substantial investment in the property that may not be possible
without the variance.
3. The request would not be detrimental to public welfare.
4. The request is consistent with the existing conditions in the surrounding area, as several R -1
properties in the area have primary or accessory structures that encroach into side yard
setbacks.
5. This is a substandard R -1 lot at 85 feet of width as opposed to the normal 100 -foot width
thereby creating an anomaly germane to the requested variance.
6. The proposed front yard setback is 50 feet as opposed to the minimum required 30 feet which
will work to mitigate the visual impact of the variance.
7. There were no objections from the neighborhood.
