CITY DEPARTMENTS' RECOMMENDATION: Approval. The purpose of this application is to conform and existing four-unit building in the R-2F, Residential District. A Council variance is necessary because the R-2F, Residential District only allows one and two-family dwellings. The applicant is committing to the footprint of the existing structure.

No recommendation is being made regarding the hardship aspect of this request.
