r Pursuant to due call and notice thereof, the Planning and Zoning Commission of Centerville held a public hearing Tuesday, April 7, 1987 at City Hall. Chairman Tourville called the hearing to order at 7:05 P.M. Present: Buesseler, Vermeulen, Welk, Council Liaison Fritchie. Lindgren arrived at 7:25 P.M. The purpose was to hear all persons present regarding a request for variance to replace an existing garage with a new structure of the same width, 10 feet longer, 8 feet from the East property line at 7124 Main Street, also known as Lots 7 -10 inclusive, Block 9, City of Centerville. Bill LaLonde, 1687 Westview Street could not be present at this hearing, but per his telephone conversation with the City Clerk, he requests the Planning and Zoning Commission grant the variance if the garage fits cosmetically with the surrounding residential area. He feels it would be a plus for the city if the old garage were torn down. The Commission members agreed that the use was conforming, a new garage would be an asset to the community, according to current ordinance the structure is non conforming and is not within the current setbacks. Motion by Buesseler, second by Welk to recomuuend that the City Council grant a variance to replace an existing garage with a new structure of the same width, 10 feet longer, 8 feet from the East property line at 7124 ?lain Street, motion carried unanimously. Required standards for variances seem to he met for the variance: 1. Existing Special Circumstances - Due to slope problems on the lot it is unreasonable to move the structure. - 2. Literal interpretation of provisions would deprive him of rights enjoyed by others. 3. Granting this request will not confer special privileges. 4. This variance will not impair the property values, public health, safety or welfare of the residents of the City. Does not change character of the neighborhood and does improve the condition of the structure as it is now. Hearing adjourned 7:30 P.M.
