�+ CITY OF EVERETT BOARD OF ADJUSTMENT MINUTES January 3, 1983 The regular mceting of the Board of Adjustment was called to order at 7:00 P. M. by Chairman P.oss Hoagland. Also in attendance were Dewey Barnett and Doug Zook. Item 1: Applicant: Location: Variance Requested: Zoning: Gary Gill 5122 Dogwood Drive Everett, WA 98203 1311 �1Aukiltao Boulevard A variance from E. M. C. 19.14.050 (C) Rear Yard Setback. R-I, Single Family Low Density Residential Don Wood of the Planning Department summarized the :C � r; -„rt as follows and showed a slide of the site plan and the Land Use Map. There is an existing unfinished house on the site which has s�t vacant for approximately one year. The original builder created tiie deficient rearyard setback of 18 feet instead of 20 feet by not placing the structure correctly on the site. The house was not completed by the original owner because of financial problems and the present applicant acquired the property from the mortgage company that had repossessed Yhe property. After the aaplicant had a survey done, he found the rear yard setback was only 18 feet instead of the required 20 feet, and is asking for a variance so he will not be in violation of the code. The only alternative would be to tear the house down which does not seem like a rea�onable solution as the setback deficiency of two feet will not adversely affect the surrounding property owners. The Planning Staff recommends approval of the variance request. Dewey Barnett asked why this had not been caught by the Building Inspector. Ross Hoagland raised the possibility of waiving the fee since this condition was not the fault of the present owner. It was the consensus of the Board that the fee should not be waived. MOTION: Doug Zook moved to grant the variance as recommended by the Planning Stafi. Dewey Barnett seconded the motion and it was unanimousiy approved. The meeting was adjourned at 7:10 P. M. - � / ��i. / � .. .- � De nis Derickson, Se re'fary —
