ZONING ADJUSTOR OF SPOKANE COUNTY
FINDINGS AND ORDER REGARDING VARIANCE APPLICATION, VE-36-62, Frontage
WHEREAS, Application has been presented to the Zoning Adjustor by
Charles Aarli requesting that a variance be granted to permit the applicant
to move a house to a lot having a frontage of sixty feet on Riverside Avenue,
whereas the Zoning Ordinance. requires a frontage of .sixty -five feet; the
property is described as follows::
The North 210 feet of the W 1/5 of the E 1/2 of Tract 153 of Opportunity,
except the West 6.34 feet thereof, in Section 16, Township 25 N.,
Rnge 44, E.W.M. .
and
WHEREAS, The Zoning Adjustor did on the 1st day of October, 1962, hold a public
hearing as prescribed in Chapter 4.25 of Title 4 on said application of Mr. AarU,
and
WHEREAS, At said hearing opportunity was afforded those favoring and those
opposing said application° and the Zoning Adjustor having fully considered the
official records, evidence, and testimony given and . having made a personal
inspection of the property in question} does hereby find:
1. That the applicant did, on September 18, 1962, deed to Spokane County
for road purposes, a forty foot strip of land across his property thereby extending
Riverside Avenue to the east boundary line of his property; and thereby creating a
lot approximately 12 500 square feet in area, approximately 60 feet by 210 feet.,
said 60 feet comprising the lot's frontage on Riverside Avenue.
2. That the applicant, prior to the above mentioned deeding of Riverside Avenue,
did own a continuous 60 foot wide strip of land including the property in question,
but also extending south to the Spokane, Couer d'Alene, and Palouse Railroad
Bight -of -way. There was, and is, a single family home on this 60 foot wide strip
of property with its access and frontage along Sprague Avenue. The applicant wishes
to move this home onto the lot newly created by the extension of Riverside Avenue.
The Zoning Adjustor notes that had the applicant not deeded the right-of-way for
the extension of Riverside Avenue, he could have moved the home on to the position
proposed without question of compliance with the Zoning Ordinance.
3. That the extension of Riverside Avenue across applicant's property serves
the purpose of furthering the connection of Riverside Avenue to Wilbur and
Main streets. This. connection, 0 made, will connect two streets which are
presently dead -end streets, and will servo to encourage the development of
property in the area that presently lacks sufficient street access and circulation.
A. That the building proposed to be moved is a substantial home structurally
suited to being moved. A report to this effect was made to the Zoning
Adjustor by the building code office.
5. That the home is of such dimensions that all setback requirements of the
Agricultural Suburban zone can be complied with. Thus, in spite of the fact
that the lot itself has less than the required frontage, the house proposed to be
moved will not encroach upon the side yards required in this vicinity and zone.
6. That because of special circumstances applicable to subject property, namely
its long, narrow shape, the strict application of the Zoning Ordinance would
prevent the development of the property for residential purposes.. The proposed
development meets the area and setback requirements of the Zoning Ordinance and
the Zoning Adjistor finds that it would be unreasonable to deprive subject property
owner of the rights enjoyed by other properties in the same vicinity and zone,
namely to construct a single family home.
7. That the granting of the variance will not be detrimental to the public welfare
nor injurious to the property or improvements in the vicinity and zone in which
subject property is situated. This statement, while in disagreement with the
testimony of some property owners in the vicinity, is the considered judgement
of the Zoning Adjustor made after a personal inspection of the property and
vicinity and after evaluation of all testimony and records available to the
Zoning Adjustor.
NOW THEREFORE, The Zoning Adjustor of Spokane County does hereby approve
the application of Charles Aarll for a variance to move a house .to property herein
before described.
