REASON FOR REQUEST:

The stipulation that was attached to this zoning case in the early 1980s to limit the
height of the building on the southern portion of the property, the portion of the
property closest to residences, was clearly important to the rezoning. Undoubtedly,
this was a concession from the rezoning applicant at that time, that the building would
be kept to one story. Now the application seeks to take away what was conceded as
acondition of securing the prior zoning. And they do not provide any real reason for

affected area.

applicants not be permitted to offer a concession to secure zoning and then
subsequently remove it, against the wishes of those property owners closest to the

Removing the stipulation also allows for a two-story building and parking garage that
is nearly on top of the property line. This will have a negative impact on the privacy of
the nearby homeowners, as well as be aesthetically unpleasing.

REASON FOR REQUEST

APPEALS MUST BE FILED IN PERSON AT 200 WEST WASHINGTON, 2ND FLOOR, ZONING COUNTER

REASON FOR REQUEST (Attachment to form completed for appeal to City Council):

The stipulation that was attached to this zoning case in the early 1980's to
limit the height of the building on the southern portion of the property, the portion of the
property closest to residences, was clearly important to the rezoning. Undoubtedly, this was a
concession from the rezoning applicant at that time, that the building would be kept to one story.
Now the applicant seeks to take away what was conceded as a condition of securing the prior
zoning. And they do not provide any real reason for this either, except for their own convenience.
It is very important that zoning applicants not be permitted to offer a concession to secure zoning
and then subsequently remove it, against the wishes of those property owners closest to the
affected area.

Removing the stipulation also allows for a two-story building and parking garage that is nearly
on top of the property line. This will have a negative impact on the privacy of the nearby homeowners,
as well as be aesthetically unpleasing.
