Applicanto Swanson Homes Location., 73rd and Lyndale Avenues North Description of Requests Rezone BACKGROUND The applicant is requesting a zoning change from RI to R4 for the west 150 feet of the proposed townhouse property. The easterly 150 feet of the subject property was rezoned frCat 31 to R4 at the time the Comprehensive Plau was adopted. ANALYSIS AMD REOMENDAMOW.- This application was tabled April. 6, 1972 and referred to the NeighborhoO4 Group for their consideration. This group has now submitted their report to the Commission. The applicant proposes to construct townhouses at the R3 density on his two parcels, the easterly portions of which are zoned R4. • The land south and north of the subject property is similarly zoned, but is not owned or under development by the applicant at this time. Rezoning the westerly portion of the applicant' s property to R4 would tend to envelop the R1 parcels to the north and south. Such Pal-tial rezoning of the area comprehended as RI in nature, is not. recoimneaded. In addition, the remaining R4 properties south and north of the applicant's would become less amenable to R4 or R3 use, without further rezoning of the adjacent Rl pa eels. It is the staff opinlop that any rezoning consideration should comprehend the land use of the area. The recoNanendation at this time is for denial, • . ., ..,:r+� '`'':rTa4Ya�':r±�P:�r"3.`i15.s+mr t5?;.v.:-wi.+�.L:.��.,: ..._,.,.,�... �; 6: _� � Y�'� 'e ..�.., .... .:- k i t ._... .� k � S ...�.o..,... ......_...�..�.._....

The proposed plat will provide 11 townhouse condominicun lots. ANALYSIS AND REC"OMENDATION—, The recommendation Zor this application is contingent upon the action cf No. 72020 The staff has reservations regarding the layout of the lots. It appears that the 'Land dedicated for open space does not functionally or aesthetically serge the entire development, as At might with other possible designs., As with the rezoning application, consideration should be given the passible ramifications upon the entire area particularly with regard to the visual effects upon adjacent parcels.

The project will have 11 dwelling units in two buildings. ,zNAL-Y-SiS AND RECOMEMPTION: Action is contingent upon the determination of No. 72020 and No. 72021. The staff opinion suggests reconsideration of the project design, particularly with regard to access and open space layout. There is concern over the position of the buildings relative to the sideyard view of potential development on -djacent lots. • C, Re design of the project could provide an improved visual effect from neighboring developments and afford maximum accessibility to the green space and play area.. Ps indicated on the submitted plans, the open area is readily accessible only by the units on the west end of the buildings. it seems that this open space is provided more for density credit rather than for functional, or aesthetic purposes. Further attention could be given other designs which would comprehend a planned utilization of open space and access areas more antenable to e small neighborhood, rather than the standard "row house" concept which is indicated.

He has contracted for the erection of the structure, assuming there was no easement. He states a hardship would be realized also because of the location of the steps vt the west side of his home, in relation to the alignment of the driveway, ANALYSIS AND RECCMENDATION.- The applicant has filed several reascns to support his request. The circumstances, however, are not typical, relative to setback requirements and variance needs. - • The five foot area along the west property line is a formal utility easement; encroachment by any means would not be legal, The relief would be found only in a formal vacating action by the court. Thus, the reccAnmendation is for denial. It appears the structure could be placed further to the north and east, thus not requiring relief to build on the easement, retaining the" required setback area. 0 k P.Pplication Flo. 72041 Applicant: Ralph Thorn-as for W.
