I contend that m(cid:92) entitlement to the requested variance is based on the follo(cid:90)ing findings: Rea(cid:86)(cid:82)(cid:81)ab(cid:79)e U(cid:86)e The (cid:93)oning regulations applicable to the propert(cid:92) do not allo(cid:90) for a reasonable use because: The 25’ rear setback reduces the buildable area of the lot by 520 sf (18.7%). ____________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________ Ha(cid:85)d(cid:86)(cid:75)(cid:76)(cid:83) a) The hardship for (cid:90)hich the variance is requested is unique to the propert(cid:92) in that: This property is both a through lot and a corner lot. It is therefore subject to both a ____________________________________________________________________________ 25’ rear setback and a 15’ side street setback which further reduces the buildable ____________________________________________________________________________ area. Additionally, the critical root zone of a protected tree and the existing historic ____________________________________________________________________________ primary dwelling eliminate other possible locations for a secondary dwelling unit. ____________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________ b) The hardship is not general to the area in (cid:90)hich the propert(cid:92) is located because: The size of this lot is similar to others throughout the neighborhood yet this is one ____________________________________________________________________________ of a small number of properties that fronts two streets. Most nearby similarly sized ____________________________________________________________________________ lots have rear alley access and therefore a 5’ setback for secondary dwelling ____________________________________________________________________________ units. ____________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________ Cit(cid:92) of Austin | Board of Adjustment General/Parking Variance Application 6/26/20 | Page 5 of 8 D-3/4 A(cid:85)ea C(cid:75)a(cid:85)ac(cid:87)e(cid:85) The variance (cid:90)ill not alter the character of the area adjacent to the propert(cid:92), (cid:90)ill not impair the use of adjacent conforming propert(cid:92), and (cid:90)ill not impair the purpose of the regulations of the (cid:93)oning district in (cid:90)hich the propert(cid:92) is located because: The neighboring properties treat the rear street frontage as an alley.
