o 10. 11. 12. That the Applicant's plat proposes to create 7 single family residential lots, three (3) of which are considered riparian, on a 1,000 foot long cul-de-sac. That the Applicant has stated that the Subject Property contains severe slopes in topography that result basically in a peninsula not wide enough to accommodate two roads. That average lot width of the 7 lots at the road frontage or building setback line is approximately 200 feet, but on an individual basis, Lot 5 is approximately 30 feet deficient of the 200 foot width requirement. That the Applicant is proposing to locate building pads on riparian Lots 4 5, and 6 that do not meet the City's 200 foot structure setback requirement from ordinary high water mark, but do maintain compliance with the recommended 150 foot setback contained in Minnesota Rules. That the Applicant has stated that locating the structures on Lots 4, 5 and 6 in accordance with Minnesota Rules versus Ramsey City Code will provide the opportunity to save many mature trees and minimum disruption of existing grades. That the special conditions causing the hardship do not result from the actions of the Applicant. That if granted, the variance will not grant the Applicant any special privilege that is denied to other owners of lands in the same district.
