that could be incurred, by either separation or other factor. Mr. Virta reported
that he was unable to find any such provision. Mr. Virta suggested expanding
the distance separation to a greater number for the C-3 district being that C-3 is
not the most common zoning district. The board questioned a per capita
stipulation relating to the number of beds at the facility. Further discussion b

Planning and Zoning Board
Terry Virta, AICP, Growth Management Director, addressed the board,
concurring with Mr. Tannen's statement, but also stating that the largest hardship
evident, is that the structure already exists at the location it is at and that it would
be difficult to move it. Mr. Virta further stated that staff cannot look at the request
from that standpoint. Chairman Lohmann opened the item for public comment.
Mr. Thomas J. Lietaert, 726 NW 12 Ave., was sworn in and addressed the board,
speaking favorably of the variance request. Hearing no one and seeing no one

Department, that a permit for the but was not necessary, after construction it was
found that a permit was necessary and that the structure was in violation of
required setbacks. Mr. Tannen felt that even if the structure had not been
constructed, it still would not be able to be constructed and meet the required
setbacks. Mr. Virta stated that this petition was not filed as the result of a Code
Enforcement violation. After further discussion by the board, a motion was made

other signs which were located on the property were removed, with the help of
