Dear Mr Hill:
The Planning Director has completed a review of your application for an Administrative
Variance, for an 8’ retaining wall and reduced sideyard setback, for a storage structure,
from the required 8’ to 2’ at 3317 Cadencia Street. After careful consideration of the
circumstances surrounding this request, the Planning Director has determined that the four
findings required for granting an Administrative Variance cannot be made and, therefore,
DJINIES this request based on the following findings and conditions.
1.
2.
3.
There are no exceptional or extraordinary circumstances or conditions applicable to
the property or to the intended use that do not apply gendy to the other property
or class of use in the same vicinity and zone because surrounding lots have similar
topography. The lots in the area are graded such that every parcel has a slope to
the adjacent lot. The lot is also similar in size and shape to adjacent lots in the area.
The requested vaTiance is not 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 no other properties in the
area have eight foot retaining walls or structures in the required side yard setback. All properties in the surrounding area must also comply with the Zoning ordinance.
The granting of this variance will be materially detrimental to the public welfare or
injurious to the property or improvements in the vicinity and zone in which the property is located because the granting of the Administrative Variance will set a
precedence and other propexties may request the same privilege as granted to the
property in question
