This land assembly contains approximately 250 parking spaces. Because of the unique combination of operations; education, office and housing, the parking actually used is only about half of the parking provided. This is a special condition and circumstance which exist and are peculiar to the land, structure and building. Criteria (b) That the special conditions and circumstances do not result from the actions of the applicant; Justification: As stated in Criteria (a) above the unique combination of site operations and the large number of parcels held together by AMO, form special conditions and circumstances which were not the actions of the applicant. Criteria (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; Justification: The applicant, AMO operates a unique operation of business and has assembled a large amount of land within the City of Dania Beach boundaries. This constitutes a rare situation, which will not confer on the applicant any special privilege. Criteria (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; Justification: Remote parking is allowed under the district and zoning code of ordinances. Any property with the same conditions could propose a similar zoning variance. Criteria (e) That the variance granted is the minimum variance that will make possible the reasonable use of the land, building or structure; Justification: The variance requested is the minimum variance that will make reasonable use of the land and existing structures. Adequate parking within a short walking distance and City Ordinance requirements is available for the use of occupants of the structures. 1816 Sherman St. Hollywood, Florida 33020 954-925.3964 Registration N 6529 Criteria (t) 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. Justification: Since the parking required would be provided with the prescribed distances outlined in the code of ordinances in Dania Beach Florida, the variance will be in harmony with the general intent and purpose of the chapter.
