5,5� The variance, if �ranted, will not alter the essential character of the �acatity: This t�articular neighborhood has been improved over a number of years. Recent homes were constructed in ih� late 1990's and early 20E}0's, while others date back to the 1950's. This would explain some of the variation in front yard and side yard setbacks, but does not necessarily support such an allowance on this parcel. However, the allowance to a�'ford home design flexibility would only enhance the new home and lead to a design that better fits the general character of the neighborhood. The Planning Division has determined that the allowance of a 15-foot VARIANCE will not alter the essential character of the locality, nor adversely affect the public health, safety, or general welfare, of the city or adjacent properties. �_0 STAFF RECOMMENDATION: f. I Based on the comments and iindings outlined in Section 5 of this report, the Planning Division recommends approval of the WelezkilIlif�`request for a 15-foot VARIANCE to $1004.016 (Residential Dimensional Requirements -Front Yard Principal Structure Setback) of the City Code to allow the future construction of a home on the vacant parcel at Dale Court and Dale Street, subject to the following conditions: a.
