I. REQUEST The applicant is requesting approval of a variance from the 25% building coverage maximum for properties in the Residential-One (R-1) zone district. The purpose of this variance is to build a 4,106 square foot single-family home at 3220 Iris Court, which is 12,502 square feet in size. This exceeds the 25% allowance of 3,125.5 square feet by 980.5 square feet or 31.4%. It will result in a building coverageof 32.8%. Section 26-115.C (Variances and Waivers) of the Wheat Ridge Code of Laws empowers the Community Development Director to decide upon applications for administrative variances from the strict application of the zoning district development standards that are not in excess of fifty (50) percent of the standard. II. CASE ANALYSIS The variance is being requested so the property owner may construct a custom home covering 4,106 square feet (32.8%) of the 12,502 square foot lot. The property is zoned R-1, which allows for a maximum building coverage of 25%. The property is located on Iris Court north of W. 32nd Avenue (Exhibit 1,Aerial). The area is residential in character, and the property is completely surrounded by the R-1 zone district (Exhibit 2, Zoning Map). The subject property was platted in 2001 as part o f the Applewood Preserve Subdivision - Filing No. 2 and is currently vacant. This request is not uncommon for this subdivision. There are a total of twelve lots in Applewood Preserve, with individual parcels being developed between 2003 and 2019. Three homes were approved for building coverage variances between 2004 and 2005, with others approved in 2015 and 2016 (Exhibit 3, Subdivision Fariances). The applicant for the requested variance, Lou Ficco, was also the applicant for the five other variances requested. Development Standards The proposed home will comply with all other R-1 development standards including minimum sefbacks (Exhibit 4, Site Plan). R-1 Development Standards:Required Actual / Proposed Lot Area (one-family dwelling)12,500 square feet (min)12,502 square feet Building Coverage 25% (max)32.8% Front Setback 30 feet 30 feet Side Setback 15 feet 15 feet (north) & 24 feet (south) Rear Setback 15 feet -17 feet Administrative Variance 2 Case No. WA-19-04 / Ficco The elevations (Exhibit 5) also demonstrate that the proposed house will comply with the architectural character of the neighborhood, including the adjacent property to the north which also contains a ranch-style home and is shown in Exhibit 6,Sit*Bhotos. Public Comment During the 10-day public notification period, staff received two inquiries regarding the request. No written objections were received regarding the variance request. III.VARIANCE CRITERIA In order to approve an administrative variance, the Community Development Director 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 7, Written RequesO. 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 requests were denied, the property would continue to yield a reasonable return in use. A smaller home could be constructed on the site, or the applicant could build a home up to the 35- foot maximum height instead of a one-story ranch home. Adding a second or third floor would not add to building coverage. The property will continue to have development potential, regardless of the outcome o f 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 would not alter the character o f the locality. Five homes in the subdivision have been approved for building coverage variances (Exhibit 3).Allowing the variance to the building coverage would allow the applicant to build a custom home of similar size and design to the other homes 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 which would not be possible without the variance. In order to construct a home that is in character with other homes in the subdivision, it must be of a certain size and architectural quality. While the City does not enforce residential covenants, the subdivision covenants require a 3-car garage and all homes in the subdivision, including the proposed home have a 3-car garage which takes up more square footage than a standard 2-car garage. The applicant could build a smaller home, but a larger investment in the property is necessary to fit with the character of the surrounding area and a smaller home may not meet the minimum covenant requirements. Administrative Variance 3 Case No. WA-19-04 / Ficco 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. While there is 8 feet of fall across the property, this is not a contributing factor in the variance request. The topography may impact the ability to construct a concrete patio in lieu of a deck (the former would not count toward building coverage),but this alone does not create the need for a variance. There are no other shape or topographical conditions impacting the site. Staff finds this criterion has not been met. 5. The alleged difficulty or hardship has not been created by any person presently having an interest in the property. The hardship has been created by the interested party's desire for a home that exceeds the building coverage maximum for the R-1 zone district. 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 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 o f this request. The request would not increase the congestion in the streets, nor would it cause an obstruction to motorists on the adjacent streets. It is unlikely that the request would impair property values in the neighborhood. 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. Administrative Variance 4 Case No. WA-19-04 / Ficco Five other homes in the subdivision have been granted building coverage variances. This suggests that there are circumstances and conditions present in the neighborhood that are not unique to this property. Staff finds that this criterion has been met. 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. However, a ranch style home with all facilities on the main level may be desirable for a person with disabilities or the elderly. Staff finds this criterion is not applicable. 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 or their accessory structures. 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 980.5 square foot (31.4%) variance from the 25% maximum building coverage for properties in the Residential-One (R-1) zone district. Staff has found that there are unique circumstances attributed to this request that would warrant approval o f a variance. Therefore, staff recommends approval for the following reasons: 1. The variance would not alter the essential character of the neighborhood. 2. The applicant is proposing a substantial investment in the property that may not be possible without the valiance. 3. The request would not be detrimental to public welfare. 4. There appear to be circumstances and conditions present in the neighborhood, not unique to this property necessitating this variance request. 5. No objections were received regarding the variance request during the public notification period. With the following condition: 1. The design and architecture of the proposed house shall be consistent with representations depicted in the application materials, subject to staffreview and approval through review of a building permit.

Administrative Variance 11 Case No. WA-19-04 / Ficco EXHIBIT 7: WRITTEN REQUEST In response to written request and description. This lot is located in the Applewood Preserve Subdivision, which consists of upscale custom homes. We purchased the two parcels of land and have developed the entire subdivision over the last 15 years. We have experienced that the neighborhood seems to attract a older buyer over a young family. Part of this is because of the price range of the homes, and the other is the size of the lots being smaller and more suitable for families without children. Due to the price range of the homes and the covenants of the subdivision, the architecture requires special attention which includes things such as grand covered entrances, large decks, and three car garages which count towards the total lot coverage. There is also a demand to have everything on one tloor to eliminate the use of stairs on a daily basis, which leads to a ranch plan. We have worked diligently with the architect to come up with a plan that suits the needs of a home in this price range from both a visual and practical standpoint. We feel that there is no way to cut the size down and still provide something that is marketable and still fits the existing subdivision. This is not the first lot that this problem has existed, as there are variances on almost every lot in the subdivision. The home still fits within the setback requirements of the zoning code, and there is no hardship that would be present for any other adjacent property owner. In fact the approval of a variance would allow the home to be a ranch plan instead of a two story, which is more favorable to the surrounding properties because the lot is small and a two story home feels more encroaching to the surrounding properties, due to its height and proximity to the surrounding homes. in Response to the Review Criteria for Variance questions 1. The property will notyield a reasonable return in use under the current state because the proposed house is a ranch and has a three car garage to conform with the covenants of the neighborhood and there is really no way to get a decent size ranch home to fit on the lot and still fit the price range of the neighborhood. 2. The Variance will not alter the essential character of the locality because every other house in the subdivision has required the same type of variance. The house will still fit within the setback requirements under the zoning code. 3. The purposed single family home will be in the $1,00(),000 price range and will comply with the rest of the subdivision 4. With the lot being so shallow from front to back the house needs a side load garage which pushes the house over to the side as not to create a house that looks like nothing but garage doors from the front elevation. This is consistent with the rest of the subdivision. 5. There is no hardship that has been placed by any person presently interest in the property 6. The granting of this variance would not be detrimental. It stays consistent to the rest of the subdivision and this is the last lot in the subdivision. It creates no hardship upon any adjacent property or the public. 7. The entire subdivision has required therefore not just unique to this property. 8. NA (single family home) 9.
