that the structure would be outside the Shore Impact Zone and meets/exceeds the elevation assumptions noted <br />previously. <br />Alternative #2: Approve a modified version of Resolutions #16-05-105 and #16-05-106. This action would be <br />based on discussion but may focus more specifically on a minimum separation distance from the OHW, a specified <br />elevation difference between the OHW and the floor of the garage, or other factors. <br />Alternative #3. Do not approve the variance request. The Subject Property is irregularly shaped and has unique <br />factors associated with it. Staff believes that the proposed use is reasonable and in order to blend in with the <br />character of the neighborhood, a variance would be needed. Therefore, Staff does not support this option. <br />Funding Source: <br />All costs associated with this request are the responsibility of the Applicant. <br />Recommendation: <br />Staff believes that the Applicant has successfully demonstrated all three factors of the practical difficulties test, and <br />therefore should be granted a variance to the applicable Code requirements, thus allowing for construction of the <br />accessory structure within the OHW and front lot line setbacks, and construction of a secondary driveway. The <br />absence of accurate elevation information is, however, a point of concern. Staff would like to request that the <br />Applicant furnish the City with a survey similar to the survey submitted with the original proposal, which features <br />the location and elevation of the structure in relation to OHW. <br />Action: <br />Motion to approve Resolutions #16-05-105 and #16-05-106 granting a variance to the OHW setback, the front yard <br />setback, and allowing a second driveway on the property located at 14301 Neon St NW, contingent upon the <br />Applicant providing an updated survey confirming that the proposed location is outside the Shore Impact Zone as <br />well as the assumed elevation differences noted in the case. <br />Attachments <br />Site Location Map <br />Applicant Narrative <br />Original Site Plan <br />Current Proposal <br />Images 1-3 <br />DNR OHW Variance Guidance <br />EPB Minutes <br />Findings of Fact <br />Variance <br />Form Review <br />Inbox Reviewed By Date <br />Chris Anderson Chris Anderson 05/26/2016 04:41 PM <br />Tim Gladhill JoAnn Shaw 05/27/2016 08:37 AM <br />Form Started By: Lucinda Meyers Started On: 05/26/2016 03:26 PM <br />Final Approval Date: 05/27/2016 <br />
