Board of Adjustment <br />February 25, 1999 <br />#SE 99-001 <br />Page 2 of 3 <br />Analysis: The Code of Ordinances defines a special exception as a specified <br />enumerated deviation from zoning regulations. The Board is empowered to <br />grant a special exception when it finds the following: <br />❖ Granting the exception will not adversely affect the value, or use of <br />neighboring property. <br />❖ Granting the exception will not be contrary to the best public interest. <br />Regarding this request, the relief being sought is covered by the terms of the <br />Special Exception Section. <br />❖ Installation of an 8 X 20' accessory storage building on a skid <br />foundation. <br />Based on these factors, staff believes the request is eligible to be considered <br />for the exception. The issues to consider are impact on neighboring property <br />and the best public interest. The proposed accessory building is shown to be <br />approximately 3' off the interior side property line along the city alley. This <br />is a standard setback for accessory buildings. This placement will put this <br />building in line with the existing office building and covered area. (See <br />Exhibit Q. The placement of the building will eliminate 3 parking spaces; <br />however, the applicant feels this will not impact their operation or the <br />surrounding neighborhood. <br />Based on these considerations, it does not appear that granting the requested <br />special exception will adversely impact the adjacent properties. Also, the <br />applicant is willing to provide any additional screening the Board feels may <br />be justified. Therefore, it does not appear that granting this exception would <br />be contrary to the best public interest. <br />
