Explanation
COUNCIL VARIANCE: CV04-031.
APPLICANT: Height of Grandview, LLC.
PROPOSED USE: Five-story, 20-unit building with parking and commercial uses on the first floor.
CITY DEPARTMENTS' RECOMMENDATION: Approval. This Council variance replaces Ordinance #0575-02, passed April 27, 2002, for property located at 1467 West Third Avenue. That legislation (CV02-001) permitted a five story 20-unit dwelling not to exceed 56 feet in height and with reduced setbacks, vision clearance, and parking spaces in general accordance with a registered site plan and elevation drawing. The Council variance was necessary because, while dwelling units are permitted above certain commercial uses, the applicant proposed the multiple unit dwelling without ground floor commercial uses. Subsequently, there is a new intended developer of the site who desires to locate approximately 1,340 square feet of commercial uses on the ground floor within a modified building design. This legislation will replace Ordinance #0575-02, passed April 27, 2002, by replacing the registered site plan and elevation drawing with a new site plan and elevation drawing incorporating the proposed commercial space and building design. A hardship exists in that only a Council variance can permit residential development above ground floor parking and certain commercial uses.
