§462.357 require that variances from the strict interpretation of the zoning
ordinance be granted only when there is a demonstrated hardship because of
circumstances unique to the property; and
WHEREAS, the planning commission has considered the Applicant's request
and has recommended approval of the first five of the above variances but
recommended denial of the sixth variance; and
WHEREAS, the city council has had an opportunity to review the matter and
to hear from the Applicant regarding his request.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED By the City Council of the City of
Medina, Minnesota that the Applicant be granted the first five variances listed
above, subject to the following conditions:
1. The deck to be constructed on the front of the house shall be used for front
access to the residence; and
2. The roof of the house shall not overhang the deck by more than 3' and the
deck shall not be roofed or enclosed; and
3. The Applicant shall pay to the city for administrative expenses the amount
determined by the city staff to represent the actual cost to the city of
reviewing this variance application.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the above five variances are granted
because hardships are found to exist regarding the size of the lot, the presence of
two front yards on the property, the location of the existing house on the lot and
the setbacks of structures on neighboring properties.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED By the city council of the City of Medina that
the Applicant's request for the sixth variance listed above is denied on the grounds
that no hardship exists which justifies the variance.
