PliBLIC HEARING CHAMBERLIN VARIANCE A request was submitted by Bob Chamberlin Inc. , 1600 N. Chase Avenue, Pasco, 4Iashington to allow construction of an office building at the northeast corner of Ruby Street and proposed Road 21. He wishes a variance allowing him to build to his north property line and to give the building a Chase Avenue address (front on Chase); or, if he must. face Ruby Street he wished a front yard and rear yard variance to allow him. to construct the building to his north and south property lines. The assistant Planner read the application and presented drawings of the proposed building and its site. The Public Hearing was declared open and the Chairman asked if anyone was present to speak for the variance. Mr. Chamberlin, was present and explained that he did not wish to face Ruby Street because of the unsightliness of the back of the Thriftway Market that was across Ruby Street from his property. He wished the building also to have a Chase Avenue address as does his existing building. He presented architectural drawings of the proposed building with landscaping and exterior lighting. The Chairman asked if anyone was present to speak against the proposed variance. Mme.. Hugh Osborne, 1308 N. Norbart Street and Albers., Bond, 1515 N. Illinois Avenue, who were representing the College View Baptist Church stated that their church had dedicated 301 on the east of this property and that they wished to see Mx. Chamberlin do the same so that in the future, Road 21 would be opened as a street. They also stated they planned to build their main sancturay sometime in the future to face on to Road 21. They also objected to the fact that Mr. Chamberlin's building, even though landscaped, would be a 1001 long brick wall across from their property. The Board of Adjustment asked what they planned to build directly across Road 21 from Yr. Chamberlin's property and Yr. Osborne "epl.ied that this would be a parking lot . as their plans now show. The Chairr,�an of the Board declared a ten minute recess to inform Mr. Williams, a member of the Board who was late arriving of the matter under consideration. (Page 2.) BOARD OF ADJUSTMENT Pasco, Washington REGULAR MEETING December 27, 1966 The Chairman of the Board declared the Public Hearing open again. Mr. Williams questioned the clarity of the variance application as it was difficult to understand exactly which variance was being asked for and he also wished to know the status of Road 21. The Public Hearing was declared closed. A motion was made by Pear. Williams to table the matter until next week, (Tuesday, January 3, 1967 at 5:00 P.M. ) and that a corrected variance be submitted at that time. The motion was seconded by 14r. Hunt. Motion carried. The Staff was requested to study the variance further and see if a workable solution could be obtained. The Board requested that the Building Inspector and the City Engineer be present if possible or that more information on the status of Road 21 and on the issuance of a building permit be obtained. PUBLIC HEARIATG HATCH VARIANCE A request was submitted for a variance of the side and rear yard set back requirements at Columbia Memorial Gardena, Inc. located at 2-32C Frontage Road. The request was for a variance to allow set back of two feet instead of ten feet on the sides of the property and twenty-five feet on the rear of the property. The Assistant Planner presented a letter to the Board that was submitted by Mrs. Hatch, who represents the owners of the property in question in which she explained her reasons for wanting a variance. The Assistant Planner explained that existing right-of-way on "A" Street is forty feet, and that additional right-of-way will be necessary when this area develops for "A" Street to function as an arterial street. Also, this area is unplat.ted and construction to within two feet of the property line would make it impossible to obtain adequate easements and provide fire protection in the future when the surroundin7 area develops. The Public Hearing was declared open. There was no one present to spew, either for or against said variance. The Public Hearing was declared closed. It was moved by Mr. Williams and seconded by Mr. Hunt to deny the variance request. Notion carried. ADJOURNMENT The meeting was adjourned at 10:40 P.M. Respectfully submitted, Richard B.
