A preliminary plat is approved, in accordance with the plans received by the City on July 16, 2019, except as amended by this resolution. 2. A variance to allow the creation of Lot 2 with zero lot width where a minimum 200-foot width is required, based on the following findings: i. There are practical difficulties in complying with the zoning ordinance. The site conditions, location of the wetlands and the floodplains limit where roads can be placed on the site. The landowner was not able to purchase the adjacent lotto make the lot compliant. ii. The conditions are unique to the parcel of land and were not created by the owner. The property does not have an abutting road due to conditions not related to the owner and solutions that would allow this are unreasonable to ask. iii. The granting of this variance will not alter the essential character of the locality. The applicant is not altering any of the existing conditions on site, and it will remain the same. If anything were to change a topography and wetland delineation would be required. iv. The proposed variance would be in harmony with the general purposes and intent of the ordinance. The variance will not change the general purpose or intent of the ordinance and will not be a visible change to passersby. v. The variance is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan which calls for preservation of the rural experience while still allowing for property owners to capitalize on their land.
