w Because of the nature of the store, most of its clientele are near by residents who do not drive to the store, but walk instead. B. The building was originally constructed to accanadate a grocery store, adding two apartments in 1956. This was the most intense • use. In 1961 the grocery store was converted to a beauty shop. • In 1987 the use changed to its present use, the "Childrens Attic", a second hand clothing store for children: where they sell • clothing on consigment. The intensity of vehicle traffic has not increased with the present use. Most of the traffic is walk-in by the residences of the area. C. The approval of the variance will not be detrimental to the neighboring properties cr the zoning of the area. The proposed y' use does not take up all the off site parking, which is vacant 50 % of the time. We are also proposing to add two stacked stalls 'to the site, which will free up more offsite narking. I :n addition, in our application for nonconforming use we have included names of some property owners who are in support of the proposed use. D. The granting of the variance will be in accordance with the policies of the general comprehL sive plan under section 5, subparagraph A, item C. C. Existing legal non-conforming non-residential structures and uses that are economically viable should be allowed to continue to operate, be . improved, and renovated. Expansion or struc- tural alteration of the use should be allowed only through the public hearing process. If there are any questions or additional information is required • for this application, please feel free to call, Rudy Maynard, agent for Dean Lozano. • Si 1 , /4';/.4C2 Rudolf K.
