6 <br /> SSS <br /> • This finding cannot be made because surrounding parcels in the <br /> vicinity do not exceed the 60% building coveragellot size ratio <br /> permitted in the C-C zone. <br /> 2. No Special Privileges. The granting of the Variance will not constitute a grant of <br /> special privileges inconsistent with the limitations upon other properties in the <br /> vicinity and zone in which the property is situated, and <br /> • This finding cannot be made because surrounding parcels in the <br /> vicinity currently do not exceed the maximum 60% building <br /> coverage/lot size ratio as permitted in the C-C zone. <br /> i <br /> 3. Use Authorized. The Variance will not authorize a use or activity which is not <br /> otherwise expressly authorized by the regulation governing the parcel of <br /> property. <br /> • This finding can be made because the proposed use (Professional <br /> Services) may be permitted in the C-C zone with an approved <br /> Improvement Plan application. If the Variance application is <br /> approved, an Improvement Plan will be required prior to development. <br /> Site Plan <br /> i <br /> Currently, the proposed parking area does not appear to be adequate for the anticipated <br /> office expansion. The applicant states that he has a parking agreement with Grace <br /> Community Fellowship Church for 12 parking spaces Monday through Saturday. The <br /> parking lot is within 300 feet of the project parcel as required by Development Title <br /> Section 9-1015.4(b). The applicant proposes that the new building will be used for office <br /> space (Use Type: Professional Services). This Use Type would require 3.3 parking <br /> spaces for each 1000 square feet of building (Development Title Table 9-1015.3(b)). As <br /> a result, the proposed 4,427 square foot building would require 15 off-street parking <br /> spaces (if the Lot Line Adjustment is not completed, 17 spaces are required for <br /> proposed and existing building coverage). The parking agreement would supply only 12 ' <br /> of the required 15 parking spaces. Adequate parking shall be provided at submittal of <br /> the Improvement Plan. The proposed refuse enclosure can only be accessed through t <br /> the adjacent parcel. The applicant would be required to obtain an easement for access <br /> to this enclosure or provide an alternate access. The Variance application does not <br /> approve the Site Plan as submitted, it only addresses the building coverage/lot size ratio. <br /> Opposition <br /> The Community Development Department has received one letter of support for this <br /> project and one letter of opposition. <br /> The opponent is concerned that the parking spaces will not accommodate the proposed <br /> office growth. Also, he is concerned that the refuse enclosure will only be accessible <br /> through the opponents parcel if the building coverage of the parcel is increased. <br /> I <br /> 3 <br />
