In addition to a complete exterior renovation of the existing building, bringing it current with today's building designs. This will further benefit nearby businesses and residential property owners a like. The approved site plan for the site approval application with location of the proposed addition will be determined based on the final outcome of the variance application. Reason for Variance: The property where the proposed site approval is located in zone C-N. In the C-Nzone, the side yard setback is zero feet. However,the property abuts a partial that has an uncomforting outbuilding structure(garage). Development title section 9410.5 (B-1)states that if a side yard abuts property developed with residential uses,property zone residentially or property shown on the general plan map for residential development, said side yard should be increased to twenty(20) feet in width. This limitation would severely limit the building footage rendering the available leas able space under what would be necessary to make this a viable improvement worthy of the expense of the development over the amount of'rents to be recovered. Furthermore, the set back would tremendously limit the number of proposed parking space on the applicant's property because of the size and shape of the parcel and this restricted the types of uses that can be put on the property. I Finding one; special circumstances Applicant's statement: Since the out building is in existing non-conforming use, e. g residential use on property zone N-C,it deprives the property of complete utilization. Because of the property shape, long and narrow,it is Important to push the building to the property line. k This finding can be made because it is adjacent to a residential property, with a non- ' conforming zero setback(commercial use). For parcel zone N-C that is adjacent to another parcel ' also zoned N-C,there is also side yard setback required. However, if the subject lot abuts property develop with residential uses,property zoned residentially,or property shown on the general planned map for residential development. Set side ' p yards should be increased to twenty(20)feet in width. Development title section 9410.5 (B1). The shape of the parcel is long and arrow: it is Ifo feet deep, and 70 feet in width. This parcel configuration severely limit's the type of development and the size of buildings that can be put on the property. By strictly applying the set back requirement,there would be little or no room to fit the required number of parking spaces for uses I 111-110 03UHL Page 1
