FAMILY DWELLINGS ON LOT 32, REVISED AUDITOR'S SUBDIVISION N0, 77, THE

MOTION BY MR. BARNA, SECONDED BY MS. SHEREK, TO OPEN THE PUBLIC HEARING.

PUBLIC HEARING OPEN AT 8:30 -p.m.
Chairperson Betzold read the Administrative Staff Report:
ADMINISTRATIVE STAFF REPORT
105 - 71-1/2 WAY N.E.
VAR #86-27
A. PUBLIC PURPOSE SERVED BY REQUIREMENT:
Section 205.07.3, D, 1, requires a front yard with a depth of not less
than thirty-five (35) feet.
Public purpose served by this requirement is to allow for off-street
parking without encroaching on the public right-of-way and also for
aesthetic consideration to reduce the building "line of sight"
encroachment into the neighbor's front yard.
Section 205.07.3, D, 3, requires a rear yard with a depth not less
than 25% of the lot depth, with not less than 25 feet permitted for
the main building.
Public purpose served by this requirement is to provide rear yard space
to be used for green areas which enhance the neighborhood.
B. STATED HARDSHIP:
"There is a six foot high fence that runs along both parcels on their
back lot line. This will give these homes a small -looking and cramped
backyard appearance."
C. ADMINISTRATIVE STAFF REVIEW:
The parcel of land in question, Lot 32, Revised Auditor's Subdivision
No. 77, is long and narrow with one single-family house located on it.
This existing house is to be removed, the lot split in three, and
single-family houses constructed on each of the three lots.
Plans call for a front yard setback of 25 feet for the western -most two
of the three proposed dwellings. Both of these dwellings will be 26
•
APPEALS COMMISSION MEETING, SEPTEMBER 30, 1986 PAGE 8
feet in width. Enough room will be left for a rear yard depth of at
least 21 feet.
If the variances are approved, then the petitioner will have the
parcels platted.
Mr. Clark stated the petitioner has a contract to purchase this
parcel contingent upon his being able to build three homes on this
lot. He stated the property in question is north of the previous
site of Riverwood School and on the end of 71-1/2 Way.
Mr. Clark stated the petitioner wishes to remove the existing house
and plat the property into three parcels in order to construct three
new homes. He stated in order to build a 26 foot wide home, a front
yard setback of only 25 feet could be provided and a 21 foot setback
provided in the rear yard. Mr. Clark stated the Code requires a
front yard setback of 35 feet and a rear yard setback of 25 feet.
Mr. Clark stated the parcel widens towards East River Road so one of
the lots would not require a variance.
Mr. Obrycki, the petitioner, stated the existing home on this parcel
is about 35 years old with no basement and low ceilings inside the
home. He felt it would benefit the area if this house was removed and
new homes constructed, as it is adjacent to the Riverwood School site
where new homes are being constructed.
Mr. Betzold stated the easterly most lot could be developed without
any variances so it is the question if variances should be granted
in order for houses to be constructed on the other two lots.
Mr. Barna stated the question is really that the petitioner wants to
develop a strip of property approximately 75 feet wide and that is
really the hardship.
Mr. Gordon Sangster, 7169 Riverview Terrace, stated he felt the addi-
tion of these new homes in the area would be a tremendous improvement.
He stated the petitioner does meet the requirements as far as lot
size.
Mr. Obrycki stated if they cannot build these homes, they would leave
the existing house and sell off part of the property to a property
owner who is interested in purchasing a portion in order to enlarge
his lot. He felt, however, it would be more aesthetically pleasing
to remove the home and construct three new homes.
Mr. Betzold asked Mr. Sangster if he felt it would be better to have
the petitioner sell some of the property to one of the neighbors
who wishes to purchase it and only have two new homes built.
W. Sangster stated he felt the existing home should be removed and
three new homes constructed.

APPEALS COMMISSION MEETING, SEPTEMBER 30, 1986 PAGE 9
No other persons in the audience spoke regarding these proposed
variances.
MOTION BY MR. BARNA, SECONDED BY MS. SAVAGE, TO CLOSE THE PUBLIC HEARING.
UPON A VOICE VOTE, ALL VOTING AYE, CHAIRPERSON BETZOLD DECLARED THE
HEARING CLOSED AT 8:50 p.m.
Ms. Savage stated she looked at this property and would agree the
existing house is not attractive for the area. She felt it would
benefit the neighborhood to have it removed and new homes constructed.
Mr. Barna stated it is no fault of the petitioner that this is a sub-
standard lot,as far as lot depth,and is a problem to the developer.
He stated the building "line of sight" would be maintained. Mr. Barna
felt this wouldn't create a situation that would be detrimental to
the neighborhood and the three homes would be an improvement.
Mr. Sherek stated the hardship is obvious and the plan seems to be
feasible. He stated he appreciated the input from the neighbors.
Mr. Betzold stated almost anything that is done with this property
would require some sort of variance. He stated he wanted to stress
he wouldn't be receptive to future variances for decks or other
additions. He felt the persons purchasing these homes have to under-
stand they have to make the best of the situation. He stated even
though the variance is approved, it isn't the final action as a lot
split is required.
MOTION BY MR. BARNA, SECONDED BY MS. SAVAGE, TO RECOMMEND TO CITY
COUNCIL APPROVAL OF THE VARIANCES TO REDUCE THE FRONT YARD SETBACK
FROM 35 FEET TO 25 FEET AND REDUCE THE REAR YARD SETBACK FROM 25 FEET
TO 21 FEET TO ALLOW.GONSTRUCTION OF THREE SINGLE FAMILY DWELLINGS ON
LOT 32, REVISED AUDITOR'S SUBDIVISION NO. 77, THE SAME BEING 105 -
71-1/2 WAY N.E.
UPON A VOICE VOTE, ALL VOTING AYE, CHAIRPERSON BETZOLD DECLARED THE
MOTION CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY.
W. Betzold stated this item would go to the City Council on October 20,
1986.

is approximately 26 feet from the curb.

to add a 20 x 22 foot addition to the back of his home, with this
