Special Exception - 1020 Webster St

Home Browse Search

5 do not believe approval of this Variance request will have an adverse impact on any surrounding industrial property. The fifth Variance request is from providing a 6 foot wide landscape bed and landscaping for the West building fagade along Webster Street to providing no additional landscaping. The Petitioners are asking to be able to use the existing building without adding landscaping that is only being required due to a change in building use. This site does not have high visibility along a well travelled street, nor is it part of a new industrial park. The Petitioners do not believe approval of this Variance would have a negative impact on any surrounding property. The last Variance request is to allow for outside storage to be located in the front -yard setback along Webster Street to a minimum of 10 feet to the front property line as shown. The Petitioners would note that with the location of the existing buildings and the unimproved Webster Street, the south side of the site provides an excellent place to locate the Company's trash containers. As mentioned above the City has no plans to improve Webster Street along the front of the Petition site. The property to the west is being used to store dirt in large piles and the property to the south is using the north side of their property for outside storage. The Petitioners do not believe approval of this Variance would adversely impact any of the surrounding properties. The Petitioners would ask the Board Members to agree that approval of the above described Special Exception and Variances requests will not have a detrimental affect for this area, nor would the property values, public's health, safety, morals, or general welfare be adversely affected. The Petitioners contend that the strict application of the terms of the Zoning ordinance will constitute an unusual and unnecessary hardship as applied to the property for which the Special exception and Variances are sought: that the need for the Special Exception and Variances arises from such condition peculiar to the property in the same Zone: and that the use or value of the area adjacent to the property described in the Petition for the Special Exception and Variances will not be injurious to the public health, Safety, morals, or general welfare of the community. I attest, under the penalties for perjury, that the foregoing representations are true. Michael J. Danch President Danch, Harner & Associates, Inc.
