c. The only way additional living space can be achieved on this property meeting current <br /> setback standards is to tear down the existing home and garage and build new. <br /> d. The existing and proposed setbacks are not out of character with the surrounding <br /> neighborhood. <br /> 9. The Planning Commission considered the proposed Nonconforming Use Permit in <br /> accordance with Zoning Code Section 8-460, which regulates Type 4 nonconformities and <br /> requires one of the following criteria to be met: <br /> a. The total number of nonconformities is reduced. <br /> b. The impact of any nonconformity upon adjacent premises is reduced to the greatest <br /> practical extent. <br /> c. The extent of any nonconformity is reduced where practical. <br /> 10. The Planning Commission found the criteria of Section 8-460 to be met due to the following: <br /> a. It is not practical to reduce or eliminate the nonconformity as it would require complete <br /> removal of both the existing home and detached garage. <br /> NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED, that based upon the above findings of fact the application for <br /> a Variance (VN2013-001) and Nonconforming Use Permit (NC2013-004) are hereby <br /> recommended to the City Council for approval, subject to the following conditions: <br /> 1. The addition is built generally in accordance with the submitted plans attached to the <br /> Planning Report dated 8/15/2013. <br /> 2. The addition is constructed of like colors and materials of the existing home and roof lines <br /> are proportional to the existing roof. <br /> Adopted this 20th day of August, 2013. <br /> Bruce Howard, Planning Commission Chair <br /> ATTEST: <br /> Janice Gundlach, City Planner <br /> I:\COMMISSIONS\PLANNING\Reports\2013\8-20-2013\VN2013-001,NC2013-004(Ulwelling)-RESOLUTION.doc 2 <br />
