A. The property in question cannot be put to a reasonable use if � used under conditions allowed by the official controls: Mr. Jakel's apron is appro�mately 62 feet in width and provides access to the detached garage (adjacent to West Owasso Boulevard), an e�sting driveway towards the home, and paved parking spaces. Requiring an apron modification consistent with the City Code (26 feet in width) would prevent access to the home and critically limit the ability to use the e�sting parking spaces. B. The plight of � the land owner is due to circumstances unique to the property not created by the land owner: The City's Pavement Management Program and the reconstruction of West Owasso Boulevard has required Mr. Jakel to apply for a variance if he wants the existing (or similar) driveway apron width to remain. Mr. Jakel's driveway improvements were constructed prior to the City having a ma�mum apron width requirement for the public right-of-way. c. The variance, if granted, will not alter the essential character of the locality: The proposed 36 foot variance to the required apron width in a public right-of-way will not alter the essential character or the locality, nor adversely affect the public health, safety, or general welfare, of the city or adjacent properties. 4.0 STAFF RECOMIV�NDATION 4.1 Based on the findings outlined in Section 3 staff recommends approval of the request for a variance from Section 703.04B 1 a of the City Code, to increase the required drive apron width in a public right-of-way from 26 feet to 62 feet for property located at 3 170 West Owasso Boulevard. 5.0 PLANNING COMIVIISSION ACTION 5.2 At their meeting of June 12, 2001, the Planning Commission held the public hearing regarding the Jakel variance request.
