The zoning is RS-6, minimum 6000 s.f. area and min. lot width of 60 ft. The actual variance requested would be to allow a two lot sub -division, with each new lot to have 5675 s.f. in area, and have a lot width of 56.75ft-(see plot plan) My reasons for granting this variance are as follows: 1. There was a street dedication which removed approximately 20ft off of the North boundry of the property. This can be seen by viewing the area map, also attached. Had this not taken place the property would meet all zoning requirements. 2. There was another street dedication that removed five feet off of the east property line, It appears that this was to make ex- tra parking for activities at the Pine St. Play -field, park. �. 3 Parcel 2-121 is a Duplex.(see area map) Parcel 2-135 had a rec- ent variance granted, giving them a higher than allowable_; density than the zoning allowed. 4.

Kirk Development, 17503 72nd Avenue West, Edmonds, Washington, 98020, and hereinafter referred to as Applicant, has requested approval of•variances to allow two Tots below the minimum lot area and width at 1010'6th Avenue So.`, Edmonds, Washington, and more particularly described as: R.T.-40. BAAP 514.5 feet east plus 60 feet south -of the northwest corner of the southwest corner of the north- west corner of Section 25, Township 27 north, Range 3 East, W.M., then south 300 feet, then east 113.5 feet then north 300 feet, west 113.5 feet to the beginning; except the south' 200 feet thereof. The owner of the subject property is Ruth Grace. The owner has joined -with the Applicant in the variance request. A hearing on the request was held before the Hearing Examiner of the City of ;. Edmonds on April 28, 1983. At the public hearing the following presented testimony: Duane Bowman Planning Department City of Edmonds:.` Edmonds, WA98020 Kirk Black. Kirk Development 17503 72nd Avenue blest Edmonds, WA 98020 John Mather �. 548 Pine Street: Edmonds, WA 98020 `.

The application is for the approval of variances toallowtwo lots below } the minimum lot area and lot width at 1010 6th Avenue South, Edm onds, Washington, and more particularly described as set forth above. 2. The specific request of the applicant is to allow lots, on the above described property to consist of 5,675 square feet in area and lot E- widths of 56.75 feet. 3. The above described property is zoned RS-6. For lots within an RS-6 zone within the City of Edmonds the standard area is 161000 square feet and 60 feet*of lot width. 4. The Applicant submitted with the application a map showing the proposed short plat of the two lots should a variance be granted. ,As shown on �. the map, Exhibit 4, the width of the existing lot is shown to be 113.5 feet. This figure was obtained by the Applicant from the title report for the subject property. However, at the public hearing a survey was presented as Exhibit 9 shoeing that the actual width of the existing lot is only t 107.69 feet. Thus, it appears that the actual width of each lot in the proposed short plat would be 53.84 feet instead of the submitted 56`.75 feet for each lot. 5. The subject property was part of a .short subdivision in 1962 (see file t .1 TS-1-62). At that time. the property that was subdivided was divided into t.' lots of 120 feet by 115.5 feet and 60 feet , by l l 5.5 feet. The 120' by t 115.5' is the subject property. �. 6. In 1975 the subject property was involved in a lot line adjustment which re -moved the east two feet of the lot resulting in a reduction of the property to a 120 feet by 113.5 feet parcel of land. (It should [, c ti:F,,.l Findings and D e Ion of the Hearing Examiner'` of the City of Edmonds y r. Re: V-3-82 Page 4 v` e3 W. The Applicant indicates in Exhibit 3 that, with the dedication of,':riht g of-way for both Pine Street and 6th Avenue South, the property would, havey',pi. had adequate area. Staff cannot affirm this through research of City ' records. wa As noted earlier, adequate building pads meeting all setbacks can be. achieved even with the requested variances. However, because they variances do not comply with all the criteria of Section 20.85010,'r a, staff cannot recommend approval.. Staff does not actively oppose the variances. , 15. The Applicant testified that through informal discussions with the City ` personnel it appeared that part of the original lot was taken because f of dedications of right-of-way for Pine Street and 6th Avenue South. There is no proof of these dedications; however 60 the - foot wide right-of-way of Pine Street indicates to the Applicant that such a dedication would have had to have taken place in the past. According to the Applicant, this right-of-way is excessive for the area at•the time it was developed. 16. The Applicant submitted that the subject property is prime property for a rezone to allow increased density on the site. 17. The Applicant submitted that if the variances were granted he would take down the existing garage on the site and put.two new houses on the lot. On lot A he had house plans for a_39-foot wide, 28-foot deep house that would have four -foot setbacks, On lot B he had the style'of house that could be built on the property to conform with the existing architecture and design.` 18. The Applicant submitted that the requested variances would not be detri- mental to the land and would be an asset and improvement to the neighbor hood. '19. A witness (Mather) testified that his predecessor.in interest had purchased two feet indirectly through the Applicant's predecessor in interest to allow him to have a 60-foot wide lot. Without this two feet it appears ,... that the Mather property would not have been able to have been developed E without a variance.. 20. Witness Mather testified that the width figures as submitted were in- correct and the figures as shown in the survey, with each lot being 53.84 feet and the total lot being 174.69 feet, were the correct figures. 21. The City submitted that even though the width size was reduced.there is e; sufficient land on both lots to allow'building pads to be developed as Proposed by the Applicant. 22.

The application is.for the approval of variances to allow two lots below the minimum Tot area and lot width at 1010 6th Avenue South,,` Edmonds, Washington, and more particularly described as set forth above 2. The width of the lots on the subject property should be considered to. be 107.69 feet as "shown on the survey of the property.

Although there has been erroneous information in the original short.pl.at of the subject property, and although part of the, subject property has been transferred to other property owners in order for other lots to meet. the zoning standards, there appears to be no special circumstances for the granting of a variance. 6. The granting of a variance as requested by the Applicant would result in the granting of a special privilege. No evidence or testimony has been presented to show otherwise.'.. 7.
