SUBJECT: Administrative Variance No. 85-12 to allow a one foot eight inch encroachment into the required 10 foot front yard setback . .
Dear Mr. Timpson: :
The Planning Director has completed a review of your application for an administrative variance at Lot 27. of Map .5162. After careful: consideration: of’ the circumstances surrounding this request, the Planning Director has determined that the four
findings required for granting an administrative variance can be made and, therefore, APPROVES this request based on the following
findings and conditions.
.. ..
Findings:
1. There are exceptional or extraordinary circumstances or conditions applicable to the property or to the intended use
that do not apply generally to the other property or class of use in the same vicinity and zone, because 60 foot deep pylons were required to make the foundation stable. To
require the structure to conform to the front yard setback requirement would require new pylons, thus creating a hardship for. the owner.
2. The requested variance is necessary for the preservation and enjoyment of a substantial property right possessed by other property in the same vicinity and zone but which is denied to the property in question because there are other properties in the vicinity that have structures located within six to eight feet from the front property line.

3. The granting of this variance will not be materially detrimental to the public welfare or injurious to the property or improvements in the vicinty and zone in which the property is located because the encroachment would not be noticeable to the general public. Since other structures encroach into the front yard setback.
4. The granting of this variance will not adversely affect the comprehensive General Plan because no new change is being proposed .
.. . Conditions: .. .. ._ .. . ..
1. Approval is granted for AV 85-12, as shown on Exhibit "A" dated February 21, 1986, on file in the Planning Department and incorporated herein by reference.
