Guzowski —Variance
238 SE 2"d Street
f Criteria Statement
(a) That special conditions and circumstances exist which are peculiar to the land, structure or
building involved and which are not applicable to other lands, structures or buildings in the same
zoning district;
The home is located on a corner lot and to make the construction of the addition work on the
south side of this lot, I will need a setback variance for 5 feet from what has been determined to
be the rear yard.
The existing building is constructed on a lot with 25 foot setbacks on both SE 2"d Street as well
as SE 3rd Avenue, and the code indicates that the front door determines where the rear yard is
(SE 2"d Street). However, the west side of the lot is used as the back yard and not the south
side.
(b) That the special conditions and circumstances do not result from the actions of the applicant.
There is plenty of room on my lot to construct the addition on the south side, while still leaving 10
feet of setback area from the south property line. This is more than what the code would require
for a side yard setback.
(c) That granting the variance requested will not confer on the applicant any special privilege that is
denied by this chapter to other lands, buildings or structures in this same zoning district;
} I do not believe this would constitute a special privilege, this appears to be a case of
interpreting where the front, rear and side yards are located, and application of the
setbacks for each.
(d) That literal interpretation of the provisions of this chapter would deprive the applicant of rights
commonly enjoyed by other properties in the same zoning district under the terms of this chapter
and would work unnecessary and undue hardship on the applicant;
The code is interpreted as stating that the rear yard is determined by location of the front door.
In this case it does not work because the area where the code says my back yard should be is
much smaller that the area we utilize as a back yard, which is the west side.
(e) That the variance granted is the minimum variance that will make possible the reasonable use of
the land, building or structure;
The code requires a 15' rear yard setback and a 7' side yard setback.
I would be asking for a variance for 5 feet, because of the determination of where the rear yard is
located. However if the area was determined to be a side yard, I would not need a variance at
all.
(f) That the grant of the variance will be in harmony with the general intent and purpose of this
chapter, and that such variance will not be injurious to the area involved or otherwise detrimental to
the public welfare.
I spoke to my neighbor to the south and they have no objection to the requ 11027a
