(Page 3) VII. STAFF COMMENTS: On i:he one hand, the Board is being asked to allow an in- crease in the number of dwelling units beyond the Code' s maxi- mum. On the other hand, it is being asked to reduce parking below the Code' s minimum. Fur*hermore, there is an acknow- arkin roblem and, while the applicant may ledged on-street p 4 P argue that he should also be allowed to park some a�rs on the street, it could bp argued that the existing situata.on should not be aggravated. While the provision of a caretaker' s quarters may rer�uce vandalism, it will have the added benefit of produci.g addi- tional revenue for the owner (assuming the caretaker i:, charg- ed some rent) . Similar revenue is being denied other property owners who must abide by the Code. We wondar if possibly some security measures, such as lighting, alarms, etc. , could be installed as a possible deterrent to crime. By doing so, the problem might be solved with the pro- perty owner, rather than the community, bearing the burden. These arguments notwithstanding, the Board would probably be legally justified in granting the request with the findings and stipulations proposed above. J RS:jes/W-3 (mc)
