REQUESTFORCOUNC~AcnON DATE: 5-12-97 ITEM NO: c- 3 Manager Approved: Agenda Section: Consent Virginia Olson request for minor variance at 455 Southhill Drive (PF#2906). 1.0 REQUESTEDACnON 1.1 Virginia Olson is requesting a minor variance to allow the continuance of a boulevard parking space at 455 Southhill Drive. Requirement Proposal Variance Boulevard parking - 20' extension onto property from front lot line 16.7' extension 3.3' variance 2.0 BACKGROUND 2.1 Virginia Olson owns a home at 455 Southhill Drive. The property is zoned R-1 Single Family Residential and all adjacent land uses are single family residential. 2.2 The boulevard parking space on this property is listed on the inventory of boulevard parking spaces regularly in use, dated June 30, 1984. When Ordinance 962 was adopted in September 1984, existing boulevard parking spaces on this inventory were allowed to continue until roadway improvements involved the disturbance of the boulevard or substantial improvements were made to the property. Project P- 97 -02 for Neighborhood 38 will involve the disturbance of the boulevard on this property. 2.3 Ms. Olson is requesting a variance from Section 602.06 of the City Code to allow the continuance of this boulevard parking space. The location of a mature evergreen tree at the northern edge of the stall presents a practical difficulty for extending the parking space the required 20 feet onto his property. Since the property has a single car attached garage, this boulevard parking space provides additional off-street parking for the property. 2.4 Boulevard parking spaces are those parking spaces which do not extend at least 20 feet onto the property. Section 602.06 of the City Code prohibits boulevard parking adjacent to a public street. Boulevard parking spaces existing as of June 30, 1984, have been allowed to continue until roadway improvements involving disturbance or removal of the boulevard parking area are undertaken.
