Lots 12 and 13 of the proposed subdivision do not meet the minimum frontage 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 45-foot street frontage, the lots will meet the requirements for the lot area on a east-west street. 2. The request is the minimum necessary to alleviate the identified dimensional or locational problem; Response: Only a variance on the 45-foot street frontage requirement is needed for the lots to meet the requirements. The lots are on a small curve which makes it difficult to efficiently create normal size lots. The proposed driveway locations for both lots have been reviewed and approved by the City of Springfield's Public Works Department. 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.
