VARIANCE REQUEST
The applicant proposes to divide the subject 1.7 -acre property to create 11 lots and to provide all
necessary infrastructure to support the development. Lots 5-11 of the proposed subdivision do
not meet the lot area standards and therefore a variance is requested.
Springfield Code 5.21-125
D. The Director shall approve the Minor Variance if the applicant demonstrates compliance
with all of the applicable approval criteria:
1. Locational or dimensional problems have been identified that can be resolved by
a Minor Variance;
Response: By allowing a minor variance to the 60 -foot street frontage, the lots will meet
the requirements for the lot area on a north -south street.
2. The request is the minimum necessary to alleviate the identified dimensional or
locational problem;
Response: Only a variance on the 60 -foot street frontage requirement is needed for the lots
to meet the requirements.
3. Where applicable, the request shall result in the preservation of onsite trees 5 -
inch dba and above;
Response: Not applicable.
4. The request shall not impede adequate emergency access to the site;
Response: The request will not impede adequate emergency access to the site.
S. The request shall not unreasonably adversely impact public or private
easements; and
Response: No existing or proposed easements will be adversely impacted.
6. The request shall not unreasonably limit solar access standards for abutting
properties. In order to meet this criterion, the Director may require that the building or
structure be placed as close to the south property line as possible;
Response: The developer will be building the structures on each lot and will be able to
accommodate the solar standards on the individual lots.
7. In addition to the applicable approval criteria specified in Subsections 1. through
6., above, the following approval criteria shall also apply to a request involving parking
reductions on infill lots/parcels in the Commercial and Industrial Districts when there is a
change of use, addition or expansion that requires Site Plan Review Modification. The
Minor Variance for parking reductions shall not apply to MDS applications as specified in
Section 5.15-100:
a. The individual characteristics of the proposed use require more parking
than is generally required for a use of this type,
Response: Not applicable.
b. The Minor Variance for a parking reduction shall run with the use or uses
to which it pertains and not run with the land itself,
Response: Not applicable.
C. The need for additional parking cannot reasonably be met through
provision of on -street parking or shared parking with adjacent or nearby uses
because:
i. The owners of abutting properties cannot agree to execute a
joint access/parking agreement, and/or
Response: Not applicable.
ii. The Public Works Director has determined the proposed shared
parking area is a safety hazard because it is located too far from the
proposed use,
Response: Not applicable.
d. The request shall not result in the parking or loading of vehicles on
public streets in a manner that may interfere with the free Flow of traffic on the
streets,
Response: Not applicable.
e. The property otherwise complies with the provisions of this Code.
Response: Not applicable.
