The proposed variance does not constitute a grant of special privilege inconsistent with the limitation on other properties in the area and the P-l; Planned Unit Development District in which the subject property is located. Similar variance requests have been granted to residential properties in the immediate area. Because of special circumstances applicable to the subject property because of size, shape, topography, location and surroundings, strict application of P-l; Planned Unit Development District regulations would deprive the subject property of rights enjoyed by other properties in the vicinity and within the identical land use district. Residences within the area and the specific zoning district contain three car garages. The orientation of the site and the existing shallow eave projection does not provide adequate shade to the west elevation. This proposed variance is in substantial conformance with the intent and purpose of the P-l; Planned Unit Development District in which the subject property is located since the proposed variance allows for reasonable expansion of a single family residence. CONDITIONS OF APPROVAL Except as may be modified by the conditions contained herein, the development shall be substantially as shown on the project drawings on file with the Planning Division prepared by Stoddard Design, consisting of four sheets, and dated received by the Planning Department on April 6, 1990. Prior to issuance of a building permit for the proposed addition, the applicant shall submit a landscape plan for review and approval by the Planning Department. The landscape plan shall specifically address the front yard and the west property boundary where the encroachment is proposed. A planting screen shall be provided along the west property line to visually mitigate the addition. The existing front yard fence on the west elevation shall be relocated approximately 8' in a northerly direction. This relocation shall be depicted on the building permit submittal. The air conditioning condenser shall be relocated away from the western property boundary as depicted on the project drawings. The relocation is subject to review and approval by the Planning Department prior to building permit issuance. 32 PAGE 2 OF RESOLUTION NO. 90- PASSED, APPROVED AND ADOPTED THIS 22nd day of May, 1990 by the following vote: AYES: NOES: ABSTENTION: ABSENT: Frost Vilahuer, Hughes, Hendricks, Wright, Hunt, Hirsch APPROVED AS TO FORM: ~:~ ~t~ Attorney ppmm53 32 PAGE 3 OF RESOLUTION NO. 90-
