‭Subject: Project Narrative - 6609 N 54th Dr, Glendale, AZ 85301‬
‭To: Planning & Zoning of Glendale‬
‭I‬‭am‬‭writing‬‭this‬‭project‬‭narrative‬‭on‬‭behalf‬‭of‬‭the‬‭property‬‭located‬‭at‬‭6609‬‭N‬‭54th‬‭Dr,‬‭Glendale,‬‭AZ‬
‭85301.‬‭The‬‭purpose‬‭of‬‭this‬‭narrative‬‭is‬‭to‬‭demonstrate‬‭that‬‭the‬‭parcel‬‭qualifies‬‭and‬‭agrees‬‭to‬‭comply‬‭with‬
‭the following requirements set forth by the City of Glendale:‬
‭The‬‭property‬‭at‬‭6609‬‭N‬‭54th‬‭Dr‬‭presents‬‭a‬‭special‬‭circumstance‬‭and‬‭condition‬‭that‬‭is‬‭not‬‭self-imposed‬‭by‬
‭the‬‭owner.‬‭The‬‭parcel‬‭has‬‭dimensions‬‭of‬‭50‬‭feet‬‭wide‬‭by‬‭140‬‭feet‬‭in‬‭length.‬‭The‬‭property‬‭is‬‭under‬‭R-3‬
‭zoning,‬‭by‬‭the‬‭code‬‭of‬‭ordinance,‬‭section‬‭5.449,‬‭it‬‭is‬‭required‬‭to‬‭have‬‭a‬‭min.‬‭perimeter‬‭setback‬‭of‬‭20‬‭feet‬
‭on‬‭each‬‭side.‬‭In‬‭this‬‭case,‬‭such‬‭a‬‭requirement‬‭can‬‭not‬‭be‬‭met,‬‭due‬‭to‬‭the‬‭special‬‭dimensions‬‭of‬‭the‬‭lot.‬
‭Following‬ ‭the‬ ‭stated‬ ‭requirements‬ ‭the‬ ‭lot‬ ‭would‬ ‭only‬ ‭have‬ ‭10‬ ‭feet‬ ‭available‬ ‭for‬ ‭development.‬ ‭The‬
‭following‬‭property‬‭is‬‭limited‬‭and‬‭footage‬‭can‬‭not‬‭be‬‭increased‬‭therefore‬‭obtaining‬‭variance‬‭is‬‭the‬‭only‬
‭solution.‬‭Through‬‭variance,‬‭I‬‭request‬‭at‬‭least‬‭35‬‭feet‬‭in‬‭width‬‭for‬‭the‬‭building‬‭envelope.‬‭In‬‭other‬‭words,‬‭a‬
‭northern‬‭side‬‭setback‬‭of‬‭7’‬‭and‬‭a‬‭southern‬‭side‬‭setback‬‭of‬‭8’‬‭or‬‭any‬‭appropriate‬‭combination‬‭that‬‭adds‬‭to‬‭a‬
‭total‬ ‭of‬ ‭15’‬ ‭of‬ ‭side‬ ‭setback.‬ ‭This‬ ‭will‬ ‭give‬‭the‬‭owner‬‭a‬‭fair‬‭use‬‭of‬‭their‬‭property,‬‭given‬‭their‬‭special‬
‭circumstance.‬
‭Due‬ ‭to‬ ‭the‬ ‭special‬ ‭circumstances,‬ ‭the‬ ‭strict‬ ‭application‬ ‭of‬ ‭the‬ ‭zoning‬ ‭ordinance‬ ‭would‬ ‭result‬ ‭in‬ ‭the‬
‭deprivation‬ ‭of‬ ‭privileges‬ ‭enjoyed‬ ‭by‬ ‭other‬ ‭properties‬ ‭in‬ ‭the‬ ‭same‬ ‭classification‬ ‭and‬ ‭zoning‬ ‭district.‬
‭Granting‬ ‭a‬ ‭variance‬ ‭for‬ ‭the‬ ‭property‬ ‭will‬ ‭ensure‬ ‭that‬ ‭it‬ ‭can‬ ‭benefit‬ ‭from‬ ‭the‬ ‭same‬ ‭privileges‬ ‭and‬
‭opportunities given to surrounding properties in the area.‬
‭Granting‬‭the‬‭requested‬‭variance‬‭will‬‭not‬‭have‬‭a‬‭detrimental‬‭effect‬‭on‬‭the‬‭property‬‭itself‬‭or‬‭the‬‭adjoining‬
‭properties.‬ ‭The‬ ‭proposed‬ ‭project‬ ‭adheres‬ ‭to‬ ‭all‬ ‭applicable‬ ‭regulations‬‭and‬‭guidelines,‬‭including‬‭those‬
‭related‬ ‭to‬ ‭environmental‬ ‭impact,‬ ‭noise‬ ‭pollution,‬ ‭and‬ ‭public‬ ‭safety.‬ ‭The‬ ‭project‬ ‭aims‬ ‭to‬ ‭enhance‬‭the‬
‭functionality of the property while maintaining harmony with the existing neighborhood character.‬
‭In‬‭summary,‬‭the‬‭property‬‭at‬‭6609‬‭N‬‭54th‬‭Dr‬‭qualifies‬‭for‬‭the‬‭requested‬‭variance‬‭based‬‭on‬‭the‬‭special‬
‭circumstances‬‭and‬‭conditions‬‭that‬‭are‬‭not‬‭self-imposed‬‭by‬‭the‬‭owner.‬‭Granting‬‭this‬‭variance‬‭will‬‭not‬‭only‬
‭ensure‬‭that‬‭the‬‭property‬‭can‬‭enjoy‬‭privileges‬‭comparable‬‭to‬‭others‬‭in‬‭the‬‭same‬‭classification‬‭and‬‭zoning‬
‭district‬ ‭but‬ ‭also‬ ‭have‬ ‭no‬ ‭detrimental‬ ‭effect‬ ‭on‬ ‭the‬ ‭property,‬ ‭adjoining‬ ‭properties,‬ ‭the‬ ‭surrounding‬
‭neighborhood,‬‭or‬‭the‬‭city.‬‭Thank‬‭you‬‭for‬‭considering‬‭this‬‭project‬‭narrative.‬‭If‬‭you‬‭require‬‭any‬‭additional‬
‭information or documentation, please do not hesitate to contact me.‬
