DECLARATIONS OF APPLICANT
Please answer all questions
1. What are the physical characteristics, (i.e. topography, shape
of lot, etc.) which create a hardship for you in regard to
development of your property?
The physical characteristic of this lot that creates a hardship
is that it is 90 feet long and 55 feet wide. In addition it is
is a corner lot that requires two 15 foot front setbacks. With
two rear setbacks of 15 feet, the building would have to be 25
feet wide.
2. How does your property differ from other property in the same
vicinity?
It is a corner lot. The lot just to the south is the same size,
55 x 90. It could support building of the same size I am pro
posing. It is also narrower than other lots of similar size in the vicinity.
3. Will this variance be detrimental to the public or damaging to
other property or improvements in the vicinity?
Not The building will conform to the comprehensive plan. The
size of the building will fit with other buildings exceptionally
well. There will be no encroachment of view, shading of other
buildihjzs and the setbacks are compatible with setbacks that are
established.
4. What hardships will result to you if the variance is not granted?
Will these hardships have been caused by your own action?
With fifteen foot setbacks all around, I cannot build a reasonbly
sized building on the lot. It is needed to provide under building
parking and units that are a size and quality of adjol"RIng build-
ings. None of the hardships have been caused by my own action._
5. Can you make reasonable use of your property without the variance?
Not The area is zoned for heavy density multiple. I could not
be used in the density permitted. This is a minimal request and
in conformance with established practices.
