Findings: The r. �erty consists of a single family structure with a two car garaqe on a small, nonconforming, 4,050 square foot lot. The structure has been converted to a rooming house with nine roomers. The conversion was done without obtaining the proper permits. The City became aware of the violation after the City Code Enforcement Officer received complaints. The site is too small to provide the nine off-sti•eet parking spaces required for a nine roomer rooming house and so the Applicant applied f.or a variance for parking since he must provide a minimum of one parking space for each roomer. On October 10, 1988, the Hoard of Adjustment denied the Applicant's request for a parking variance to provide Live off street parking spaces instead of the nine required by code. The Applicant has filed an appeal of that denial alleging there were procedural errors in the first hearing since the Board of Adjustment did not receive their packet of infcrmation a week prior to the hearing and that he did not receive a copy of that information in time ta prepare an adequate response.
