The character of the parcel (through lot) creates a practical difficulty for the applicant. The proposed 6-U2 foot tall fence will not impact sight lined at the intersection of County Road C and Sheldon Street. S. None of the adjacent properties (this one included) face County Road C; therefore, the fence will not impact front yard views. 6. The proposed variance in is harmony with the general purpose and intent of the City's Comprehensive plan and Title 10 (zoning) of the City Code. The variance will not adversely affect the public health, safety, or general welfare. Conditions: I. The fence shall be limited to 6-1/2 feet in height. 2. The fence shall be located feet from the south (County Road C) property line. WHEREAS, the Roseville City Council received the Planning Commission's recommendation on Tuesday, June 27, 2000; and WHEREAS, the Roseville City Council made the following findings: 1 Section 1012.OZB2 (Required Yards & Open Spaces) stipulates that fences in front yards shall be limited to four feet in height. 2 The property located at 2655 Sheldon Street has two front yards, one located along Sheldon Street and the other along County Road C. A variance requires the applicant to prove physical hardship and to demonstrate that no practical alternatives exist that would reduce the need for a variance. The unique location of the property adjacent to County Road C, a rail line, and across from industrial uses adversely impacts the privacy and safety of the applicant and his family. S The hardship is not the applicant's creation. 6 The property cannot be put to a reasonable use if used under the conditions permitted by the ordinance. A four foot high fence would not provide adequate screening from County Road C, the rail line, and adjacent industrial uses. If granted, the variance will not impact the health, safety, or general welfare of the community. 2
