BOARD OF ADJUSTMENT December 5, 1983 page 2 No. V-83(12)22 - CITY OF PORT ANGELES. A request for reduction in the setback requirement of 35 feet in the PBP Zone, Public Buildings and Parks, to 10 feet, to allow construction of an attached solarium on the south side of the William Shore Memorial Pool. Location: Fifth and Chase Streets. Mr. VanHemert reviewed the Department Report. Chairman Rexroat opened the public hearing. Sheila Hardy, representing the Light Department, explained the purpose of the proposed solarium on the south side of the swimming pool. Chairman Rexroat closed the public hearing. Mr. Lacey moved to grant the variance for reduction in the setback requirement of 35 feet to 10 feet to allow construction of an attached solarium on the south side of the William Shore Memorial Pool, citing the following findings of fact: A. The location of the property adjacent to a commercial district, and the necessity of a southern exposure for a passive solar device are special circumstances related to the lot and surrounding area. B. Since commercially-designated properties in this vicinity may exercise solar access with far less restrictions than the subject lot and other struc- tures in the PBP District may similarly incorporate passive solar systems in their design or redesign without the necessity of a variance, a special privilege will not be extended to this property. C. The solarium will be sufficiently separated from neighboring properties so as not to cause a fire hazard, obstruct a view, or block sunlight and air. It will also not cause a sight distance hazard at off-street parking entrances. Therefore, it will not be injurious to abutting properties or detrimental to the general welfare. Mrs. Tinkham seconded the motion, which passed unanimously. BOARD OF ADJUSTMENT December 5, 1983 Page 3 . No. V-83(12)23 - RICK BRADLEY. Request for a 3-foot reduction in the 25-foot setback requirement in the RS-9 Zone to allow construction of a new single-family residence. Location: 1411 Pacific Vista. Mr. VanHemert reviewed the Department Report. Chairman Rexroat opened the public hearing. Mr. Bradley was available to answer questions. Chairman Rexroat closed the public hearing. Mr. Lacey moved to grant the variance for a 3-foot re- duction in the 25-foot setback in the RS-9 Zone to allow construction of a new single-family residence, citing the following findings: 1. It would not be a grant of special privilege because of the small size of the variance which would allow construction of a single-family residence. 2. The variance would not be detrimental or pose a safety problem. . 3. The shape of the lot caused by the curve of the cul- de-sac constitutes a special characteristic. Mrs. Tinkham seconded the motion, which passed unanimously. VI STAPF REPORTS Mr. VanHemert requested a rescheduling of the first meeting in January. Mr. Lacey moved to reschedule the regular January meeting to January 9, 1984, at the same time and location. Mr. Hill seconded the motion, which passed unanimously. VII REPORTS OF BOARD MEMBERS None.
