Board of Adjustment <br />Meeting Minutes <br />August 19, 2020 <br />Page 2 of 4 <br />Leedy reviews the procedures for the meeting; opens the public hearing; and states <br />there are six criteria, which must be met for the board to approve a variance request. <br />Leedy states that for the requested variance to be approved, five (5) of the six (6) votes <br />would need to be affirmative. <br />Ritchie verifies the application to be heard this evening is complete, and was mailed to <br />surrounding property owners on July 31, 2020, published in the Boulder Daily Camera <br />on August 2, 2020, and the property was posted on July 31, 2020. <br />Ewy moves and Mihaly seconds a motion that all requirements have been satisfied and <br />the application submitted by the applicants has been properly filed. Motion passes by <br />unanimous voice vote. <br />Leedy asks if anyone at the hearing has any objections to the hearing procedures he <br />described and asks if there were any other preliminary matters that needed to be taken <br />care of. None are heard. <br />Conflict of Interest and Disclosure: <br />Leedy asks for disclosures from the board members for any site visits, ex parte <br />communications, and any conflicts of interest or required disclosures on the application. <br />All Board members indicate they did not have any ex parte communications or any <br />conflicts of interest for the application. Cooper informs the board that she did visit the <br />site. <br />Leedy asks the applicants if they are ready to proceed with the hearing. The <br />applicant(s) indicate they are ready to proceed with the hearing. <br />Staff Report of Facts and Issues: <br />Ritchie reviews the location of the property, summarizes the applicant's proposal, and <br />presents staff's analysis of the six variance criteria. <br />Staff Recommendations: <br />Staff finds that all six criteria in Municipal code Section 17.48.110 are met and <br />recommends the Board of Adjustment approval of the variance request. <br />Board Questions of Staff: <br />Ewy asks if staff can confirm that there was no correspondence received from the <br />surrounding neighbors. <br />Brennan says that is correct. We received no correspondence for this application. <br />Cooper asks why we are not considering the deck as part of the project as well. <br />Brennan says that in the zoning code, any deck that is 30 inches from the grade to the <br />finished floor is not required to meet setback requirements or counts towards lot <br />coverage. <br />
