TO: Board of Adjustment
FROM: Katrina Purcell, Planner 1
SUBJECT: To consider a request to allow a Variance to the minimum rear setback from 25
feet to 13 feet.
tl- -00
Ross Hansen has applied for a variance to the minimum rear yard setback for the property at
3850 West Pointe Drive. The property is zoned RM -H (Residential Multiple Family Dwelling -
Highest Density) and therefore requires a 25 foot rear setback.
In 2007 a plat was filed for Pointe' Park, a cluster housing development. As the market quickly
changed, so did the demand for housing. In 2011 and 2013, several replats were filed creating
standard single family lots for the west half of the original subdivision. These new single family
lots vary in depth, some are 110 feet deep, some are 120 feet deep. The lots in question are 110
feet deep. Minimum lot depth for RM -H districts is 100 feet, so the minimum lot depth is not an
issue. At least one house has been built, to code, on one of the 110 foot deep lots.
Mr. Hansen states that the narrowness of the lot limits design flexibility.
The applicant shall have the burden of proof to demonstrate that all three conditions necessary
for approval have been met:
A) That the granting of the variance will not be contrary to the public interest;
B) That literal enforcement of the ordinance will result in unnecessary hardship because
of exceptional narrowness, shallowness, shape topography or other extraordinary or
exceptional physical situation or hardship physical condition unique to the specific
piece of property in question. "Unnecessary hardship" shall mean physical hardship
relating to the property itself as distinguished from a hardship relating to
convenience, financial considerations or caprice, and the hardship must not result
from the applicant or owner's actions; and
Q That by granting the variance, the spirit of the ordinance will be observed and
substantial justice will be done.
Exhibits are attached.
