Appeal Letter to the City of Roseville <br />September 15,2006 <br />Page 2 <br />In order to facilitate selling their homestead at 1822 North Dale Court, the <br />Weleczlcis applied for and received a Minor Subdivision approval in 2005 (Per <br />Resolution No. 10327) whereby the subject lot at 1828 North Dale Court was split from <br />the original homestead at 1822 North Dale Court. The Weleczkis then sold their <br />homestead and moved to their apartment in late summer 2005. <br />The Weleczkis have had the subject lot listed with a real estate company since the <br />Minor Subdivision was approved in 2005. They have had numerous interested parties <br />and not less than six (6) purchase agreements have b��;iz submitted by potential buyers. <br />Presently, several parties have expressed an interest in building a home on the lot, but are <br />awaiting the results of the Applicants' request for a variance. <br />Unfortunately, due to the unique triangular shape of the subject lot, the buyers <br />have had difficulty in developing practical plans for a home design that can be built on <br />the site without the need for setback variances. This has resulted in all purchase <br />agreeme��ts being cancelled or rescinded. To date, the Weleczkis have been unable to sell <br />the lot due to these practical difficulties in inaking a design plan for a home without <br />setback variances. <br />The potential lot buyers have indicated that the current unique shape c�f the lot <br />imposes practical difficulties on tl�e h.e�me design such that a typical standard home <br />design plan will not work. Potential buyers are unable to design hallways and rooms on <br />the unique triangular site s�c1�.t�at the new home would be practically �seable. <br />The Weleczkis are not home builders or real estate developers and to date they <br />have merely sought to sell the lot to someone who can make good use of it. However, <br />they have now concluded that in order to sell the lot and in order to overcome the <br />practical difficulties of ineeting all setback requirements on the unique triangular shaped <br />lot, the best option is to seek a setback variance so that a home with a traditional design <br />plan and layout may be constructed on the lot. <br />This is not a case where the Applicants tried to "sneak through the Minor <br />Subdivision process by using subterfuge and now are coining back after the fact to "sneak <br />through" a variance that might have been denied had they sought it at the time of the <br />Minor Subdivision. '� Applicants submitted a hoin� design schematic at the time of the <br />Minor Subdivision application in July 2005, showing a home design footprint that would <br />have required a variance. They did not wish to build a home at that time, but only sought <br />to show that it could be done. The Applicants were up front and straightforward in their <br />dealing with City Staff and did not seelc to hide the fact that there lil�ely would be a need <br />for a variance on the lot at some point. As mentioned above, the applicants are seeking a <br />variance now due to the practical difficulties in selling the lot due to the practical <br />difficulties of potential buyers to design a home on the site. <br />
