ALLEGATIONS OF APPLICANT �*
POINT 1. The following are the special circumstances which apply to my property
which deprive me of rights and privileges which are enjoyed by other properties in
the vicinity under the identical zone classification. I
a.,rage is just barely long enough for car. It is difficult to open and close the
garage doors.
POINT 2. The variance I am requesting will not be detrimental to the public wel-
fare or injurious to the properties or improvements in the vicinity of a zone in
which my property is located because:
It is not obstructing any view; also it is a corner lot and I have to meet
tii o front -yard set -backs.
i
POINT 3. If this variance is not granted, an unnecessary hardship will continue
to the owner of this property, the cause of which is beyond his control because:
I wouldn't be able to extend the length of the garage.
i
POINT 4. So as not to grant a special privilege to me by the granting of this
variance I submit the following conditions to be imposed so as not to cause in-
consistencies with the limitations upon other properties in the vicinity and zone
in which I am located. ".
We will meet all other code requirements.

sewing machine and an air compressor, neither of which make an undue
amount of noise. The Code does not allow customers to visit the home
of a home occupation, and no sale or retail use was foreseen at this
site. Neither was dust or noise foreseen. The applicant has a magnetic
sign on his car, but he cannot have a sign on his home indicating he has
a business there. Mrs. Luster recommended approval as all general Code
requirements would be met, there would be no business related traffic to
the home, and there would be no employees at the home directly related
to the home occupation. The public portion of the hearing was opened,
no one wished to speak, and the public portion was closed. Mrs. Stole
asked the applicant if there would be a limit on the number of projects
he will be working on at one time so that materials and partially com-
pleted projects would not be visible to the public or stored around the
home. Mrs. Luster advised that the Code requires that all materials
must be stored inside. The applicant said he intended installing a. large
glass window in the garage to -admit light, so his work would be visible
through that window. MRS. STOLE MOVED, SECONDED BY MR. HOVDE. TO APPROVE
CU-48-78 AS IT APPEARED IT WOULD NOT ENDANGER THE HEALTH, WELFARE, AND
SAFETY OF THE GENERAL PUBLIC AND IT SHOULD NOT BE DETRIMENTAL TO ADJOINING
PROPERTIES AS IT WILL BE A LOW KEY TYPE OF BUSINESS. MOTION CARRIED. A
short recess was then announced.
RICHARD FORD - Variance from required lot width at 77th Ave. W., north
side of 203rd St. S.W. (RS-8)
This application was in conjunction with a subdivision. It would not
amount to a rezone. Because of a 15' easement providing access to the.
back lot of the subdivision, the front lot would be short 10' in lot
width, the requirement being 70' and the applicant proposing 60'. This
proposal would not obstruct any views or endanger the neighborhood, and
both lots will exceed the RS-8 square footage requirement. The applicant
would not be able to subdivide without the variance, however. firs. Luster
felt it was a minimum variance to make for reasonable use of the property
by making two buildable lots. All other requirements would be met. She
recommended approval because it was a minimum variance to allow for the
maximum use of the property, because the shortage was caused by the need
for access to the rear lot, and because a safety problem would not be
created. The public portion of the hearing was opened. The applicant
said the northwest corner of Lot l had been revised to cut off the corner
and make accessibility to Lot 2 easier. The public portion of the hearing
was closed. Mr. Roy felt it appeared to be a reasonable request. Mrs.
Stole commented that since the 15' will be used as a driveway, and therefore
retain open space, she felt it would be acceptable, but she would have
objected if there were to be a building there. fir. Hovde agreed. MR.
LERAAS MOVED, SECONDED BY MR. HOVDE, TO APPROVE V-91-78 AS IT APPEARED TO
BE A MINIMUM VARIANCE TO ALLOW MAXIMUM USE OF THE PROPERTY, AND IF THE
PROPERTY WERE NOT SUBDIVIDED AT THIS TIME IT MIGHT BECOME LANDLOCKED AT
A LATER DATE. 'HE DID NOT FIND IT TO BE DETRIMENTAL TO THE HEALTH, WELFARE,
AND SAFETY OF THE SURROUNDING PROPERTIES. MOTION CARRIED.
BEN HOLT - Variance from required front yard setback at 1141 Sea Vista:Pl.
RS-12
The Code requires a 25' front yard setback and the applicant was asking
for a variance which would vary but would not exceed 4'. The lot has
three front yards, which creates a problem in setbacks. The applicant
wished to extend his garage by 6' as it currently was too short to be
able to park cars and close the garage doors. Because of the curve of
the property at the location of the garage the maximum variance would be
4' and it would vary, depending on the curve of the property. Mrs. Luster
felt it was aminimum variance to make more reasonable use of an existing
garage, it would not obstruct views or create a traffic hazard, and a
special problem was created by the three front yards, so she recommended
approval. The public portion of the hearing was opened. The applicant
EDMONDS BOARD OF ADJUSTMENT

said this was his personal residence and he was remodeling the house
extensively and would like to have a garage that he could use properly.
The public portion of the hearing was closed. Chairman Bailey observed
that this appeared to be a•reasonable request and appeared to be a
minimum variance. MRS.-DERLETH MOVED, SECONDED BY MRS. STOLE, TO APPROVE
V-92-78 BECAUSE THERE WERE,SPECIAL CIRCUMSTANCES APPLYING TO'THIS';PROPERTY
IN THAT IT HAD TO MEET THREE FRONT YARD SETBACKS AND.THE'ACTUAL AREA OF
THE BUILDING INVOLVED -WAS QUITE MINIMAL, AND FURTHER, THAT T. APPEARED
TO BE A REASONABLE USE OF THE LAND. MOTION CARRIED.
WILLIAM E. PONSETI - Variance from required side yard setback at 8228
Talbot Rd. (RS-20)
This property had been purchased recently by the applicant and at the
time of purchase he intended enlarging the master bedroom to accommodate
their furnishings. He was unaware at that time that the house did not
sit squarely on the lot, and if it had the variance would not be required.
A 31-a' variance of the required 172' side yard setback was necessary for
the remodel. The addition to the home would not obstruct any views and
it would not extend beyond the existing west wall of the house. The
house sits above the road level. Mrs. Luster recommended approval because
it would not be detrimental to adjoining property by obstructing views
or creating a traffic problem, the expansion would not extend beyond
the existing west wall, and it was a minimum variance to allow the
applicant to make maximum use of his property and existing home. The public
portion of the hearing was opened. P. Leslie Bergman of 8202 Talbot Rd.
inquired about the expansion and after the applicant explained his intent
Mr. Bergman said he had no objections. The public portion of the hearing
was closed. MRS. DERLETH MOVED, SECONDED BY MR. LERAAS, THAT V-94-78 BE
APPROVED BECAUSE IT APPEARED TO BE A MINIMUM VARIANCE TO ALLOW EXPANSION
OF THE BEDROOM AND SEEMED TO BE ENTIRELY REASONABLE, CONSIDERING THE WAY
THE HOUSE WAS SET ON THE LAND. FURTHER, THAT IT WOULD NOT OBSTRUCT ANY
VIEWS AND THERE WAS ADEQUATE SPACE BETWEEN THE SUBJECT HOUSE AND THE
ADJOINING HOUSE. MOTION CARRIED.
CASCADE CONSTRUCTION - Variance from required front yard setback at
7609 238th PI.-T.-W. (RS-8)
Mrs. Luster said a 25' front yard setback was required, and this property
must meet three front yard setbacks. It is located on the corner of
76th/238th/77th and the home must set back 25' from each of those streets.
The applicant was proposing to set back 16' from 238 th with the addition
of a garage. The required setback from the other streets would be met.
The side yard setback in this area is 7z'. The original garage had been
enclosed for living space, and Mrs. Luster indicated that the existing
house was small so the addition of a garage would not make it appear
excessively large. A single car garage could be built without the variance
but the owner had two trucks which he wished to park inside. Mrs. Luster
recommended approval because it was a minimum variance to allow for the
most reasonable use of the land; the addition would not obstruct views
or create a traffic hazard; and a setback of 16' still would be provided,
making for an adequate setback since the side yard setback requirement
in this zone is 73-,'. The public portion of the hearing was opened, no
wished to speak, and the public portion was closed. MR. HOVDE MOVED,
SECONDED BY MR. HATLENBUHLER, TO APPROVE V-95-78 BECAUSE THE APPLICANT HAD
A UNIQUE SITUATION WITH THREE FRONT YARD SETBACK REQUIREMENTS, AND HE
FELT GRANTING OF THE VARIANCE WOULD NOT ENDANGER THE HEALTH, WELFARE, AND
SAFETY OF THE NEIGHBORHOOD. MOTION CARRIED.
