BOARD OF ADJUSTMENT <br />FINDINGS, CONCLUSIONS AND ORDER <br />(PAUL MURKER) <br />V-124-84 <br />Based upon the written request for a variance from the City's zoning <br />code, specifically 18.44.210, made by Paul Murker at 8014 Beverly Boulevard, <br />hereinafter referred to as the "Applicant," the Board of Adjustment following <br />a public hearing on said application held on September 10, 1984, and further <br />having reviewed all testimony, makes the following Findirgs, Conclusions, and <br />Order: <br />FINDINGS AND CONCLUSIONS: <br />1. There are exceptional or extraordinary circumstances or conditions[ <br />applying the subject property which do not apply generally to other, <br />properties in the same vicinity or zone. i <br />a. Finding: <br />The applicant owns a parcel of property which is located at 8014 <br />Beverly Boulevard. The applicant's property consists of a 75' x <br />300' lot with a single family residence. To develop a panhandle <br />to serve two (2) lots, the applicant needs 78-1/2 feet of <br />frontage. <br />b. Conclusion: <br />Tl;e applicant's property does not have an adequate frontage for <br />him to develop a panhandle lot (i.e. lot configuration, existing <br />structure location). <br />2. The authorization of the variance will not be detrimental to the public <br />welfare or injurious to the property in the same vicinity or zone. <br />a. Findia,-,: <br />The applicant is proposing one access point onto Beverlyl <br />Boulevard in which both lots would share a common drive. TheI <br />common drive would have less impervious surface and would not <br />require maintenance by the City. The common drive will reduce <br />the potential access conflict points on Beverly Boulevard to one. I <br />b. Conclusion: <br />Reducing conflict point on an arterial is in the public welfare. <br />3. There are no reasonable alternatives which would allow for acceptable <br />design of the short subdivision in accordance with existing standards. <br />4. Finding: <br />Existing City standards would require a 20' access point with a <br />side yard setback from property line. <br />b. Conclusion: <br />Easement access is a reasonable alternative to the panhandle lot <br />configuration. <br />-1- <br />
