nrr,1:G, Oil.`; OF APPLICANT POINT 1. The following are the special circumstances Which apply tolny property which deprive me of riyl;Ls and privileges rhich -Ire enjoyed by other properties in the vicinity under the identical zone classification. The area of the property in question is very close to that required for five units. The zoniag of adjacent property on Colby B-1 and property within@ two blocks on Wetmore Y.9 c R-4 way suggest that a variance increasing allowable units from 1r� to'3.0 would not be inconsistent with long-range development of this vicinity of the city. POINT 2. The variance I am recucsting will not be detrimental to the public welfare or injurious to the properties or improvemelits in the vicinity of a zone in which my property is located because: Should the Board act favorably on this request. I would plan to begin construction of a five -unit structure a soon as possible. Again, since cote would presently allow construction of 4=9 units, I feelthat granting of the variance would be neither detrimental nor injurious. POINT 3. If this variance is not granted, an unnecessary hardship Will continue to the owner of this property, the cause of which is beyond his control because: With favorable action by the Board, Construction of the Duildina which I Yaw is wind would add appreciably to the development of this area. My hope is to develop the property to its greatest potential and limiting construction to 4 units when present 'Y.979 code would.allow " units would fall short of that potential. POIt;T 4. So as not to grant a special privilege to me by thc.granti.ng o! this variance I submit the following conditions to be imposed so as not to cause inconsistencies with the ].imitations upon other properties in the vicinity and zone in which I am located. I an aware of a variance ranted to Mr, Robert O'Couner in April, 1975, wkich__ allowed construction of a 10-unit structure on property at 3829 Colby which, ly code, would have'allowed only 9.7 units. I would have no o'ojecti.onoto other orooert', oanors.bein. _11 similar minor v riinces.
