A Variance from the Minimum required 60 ft. of Frontage on a Public <br /> Right-of-way for a Single Family Dwelling Lot to a minimum of 45 feet <br /> more or less; 2) . A Variance from the Minimum required 50 ft. of <br /> Frontage on a Public Right-of-way for uses on a Lot allowed in a MF1 <br /> District to a minimum of 45 feet more or less; 3) .

A Variance from <br /> providing perimeter landscape screening for the portion of a parking lot <br /> shown on said Parcel "A" to providing no additional landscape screening. <br /> The Variances requested for Parcel "A" will allow for the parcel to <br /> be used for a residential Duplex dwelling or a single-family home.
