, 6 i �. C. PennEy Company desires to operate one of its typical Al�to Centers in conjunction with its department stcre in Har-M�,r Center. This unit must be a free standing building located near the department store. The only feas- ible location for such a building in Har-Mar Center is at the locatiion shown on th� attached map, just North of the department store and just South of County Road B. It is propos�d to have this building set back from County Road B�he same distance as the gas station building to the West, approximately 63 feet. Because of the size of the Auto Center building and the available space, it is not practical to have a greater set-back from County Rcad B than 63 feet. Section �.030 of the Roseville Zoning Code provides for a front � yard set-back of 100 fe�t but indicates that where design. conditions or other considerations indicate a variance would not conflict wsth the general purpose and intent of the code, a variance wi11. be granted. Here the gas station building has already Established a building line and set-back from County Road B. The proposed Auto Center will be a one story building and will not impair an adequate supply of light and air to adjacent property. Use of this property as an Auto Center should not increase congesticn nor increase the danger of fire or endanger public safety since the property will be used for parking purposes if t�le Auto Center is not erected, a,nd f.hese lises ar� very comparable. Slnce the nearest homes ar� over �00 fe�t away to the East and the proposed building will be further from the apartment buildings to the Sou�ch and Eas� than the pr�esent Penney Store, this variance could not unreasonably diminish or impair established pr�perty values or impair health, safety, comfort, morals or in any other respect be contrary to the intent oi' the zoning ordinance.
