Docket No.: 10050015 V Section 23F.08.01 reduced floor area ratio
Petitioner: TH Midwest, Inc.
FINDINGS OF FACT DEVELOPMENT STANDARDS VARIANCE
1. The approval of this variance will not be injurious to the public health, safety, morals and
general welfare of the community because:
The building is pulled up to the street with required parking and fuel pump islands in the rear
and sides of the lot. Limiting the Floor Area assists in providing an appropriate balance
between the necessary parking and vehicle maneuvering area for the permitted Fuel Station use
and the building size.
2. The use and value of the area adjacent to the property included in the variance will not be
affected in a substantially adverse manner because:
The building is pulled up to the street with required parking and fuel pump islands in the rear
and sides of the lot. Limiting the Floor Area assists in providing an appropriate balance
between the necessary parking and vehicle maneuvering area for the permitted Fuel Station use
and the building size.
3. The strict application of the terms of the Zoning Ordinance to the property will result in
practical difficulties in the use of the property because:
The building is pulled up to the street with required parking and fuel pump islands in the rear
and sides of the lot. Limiting the Floor Area assists in providing an appropriate balance
between the necessary parking and vehicle maneuvering area for the permitted Fuel Station use
and the building size. The strict application of the Zoning Ordinance would require a greater
building area creating the need for additional parking on the site, which would then limit the
ability to: (i) mass the building at the corner, (ii) provide adequate site circulation for the
permitted Fuel Station use, and (iii) meet the intended development intensity of the Zoning
Ordinance.
