The applicant requests a variance from the provisions of Section 27.03.2 of the Zoning Ordinance to continue to use an existing parking lot, without curbing, or curbed traffic islands, in connection with a new clubhouse similarly sized and in substantially the same location as the existing clubhouse. The parking lot was constructed in accordance with standards applicable at the time, which did not require curbing or parking islands. Existing surface drainage is adequate.

It has operated well without curbing or curbed traffic islands, lnstallin.~ curbin~ or traffic islands now would require that the entire existin~ parking lot be demolished and reconstructed with subsurface and other drainage facilities. This would not benefit the public, and would result in substantial unnecessary expense to the petitioner. . 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 petitioner proposes to construct a new clubhouse, similarly sized and in substantially the same location as the existing clubhouse, which will not adversely affect either the use or value of property in the area adiacent to the property included in the variance. Keeping in place, without curbing or traffic islands, the existing parking lot after this construction will also not adversely affect properties in the adiacent area, since the parking lot will continue to function as it has, without adverse impacts, for many years .
