building, and a variance would not be required to add the <br /> second floor since it would not be making it more noncon- <br /> forming. <br /> b. Conclusion�_ Granting this variance will not be material- <br /> ly detrimental to the property in the area or to the City <br /> as a whole. In fact, it will improve the area, since a <br /> dilapidated building will be improved and refurbished. <br /> Criterion No. 3: <br /> That the variance will only grant the subject property the same <br /> general rights enjoyed by other property in the same area and <br /> zone as the subject property. <br /> a. Findinas: There area other homes in this area that do not <br /> meet rear setback. An example is the home directly tu the <br /> south at 1709 Fulton. <br /> b.

Findinas: Since the house is already existing at this lo- <br /> cation a iesser variance would not grant the same property <br /> right as others in this area and zone. <br /> b. Conclusions: The variance requested is the minimum neces- <br /> sary to grant the applicant the same rights as enjoyed by <br /> others in the area and zone. <br /> Criterion No. 5: ' <br /> The granting of the variance is not inconsistent with the goals <br /> and policies of the Everett General Plan. <br /> a.

Conclusions: The use is single family detached which is <br /> consistent with the General Plan. <br /> Criterion No. 6: <br /> The need for the requested variance is not the result of a <br /> self-created hardship. <br /> a. Finding�: The structure has been in the same location <br /> since placed on the site in 1959 and the property was un- <br /> der different ownership at that time. <br /> Conclusions: The need for the variance is not a <br /> self-created hardship. <br /> NOW, THEREFORE, the Board of Adjustment of thz City of Everett <br /> does hereby order that the variance be GRANTED to allow a rear <br /> setback of less than 20 feet to legalize an existing single <br /> family structure that has an approximata 10 foot rear setback. <br /> The action of the Board of Adjustmerit in GRANTING a variance <br /> shall be final and conclusive, unless within thirty (30) days <br /> F from the date of issuance and siqning of this order by the <br /> 2 <br /> � I <br /> � � <br /> I <br />
