Chris Crowsen, representing the Petersens, explained that
vehicles back directly onto Fifth Street. Chairman Lewis
closed the public hearing.
Mr. Rexroat moved to grant the variance as requested, citing
the following findings:
1. The location adjacent to the Ravine, and the steep
slope on the subject lot are special circumstances
which restrict the location of a deck.
2. Since a deck is a common use right associated with a
single-family home, the variance will not extend a
special privilege to the property not shared by other
properties in the vicinity and RS-7 District.
3. Granting the varainces will not be materially
detrimental to the general public nor injurious to
properties or improvements in the vicinity or in the
RS-7 District.
Ms. McPhee seconded the motion, which passed unanimously.
