The Board may grant a variance only if it <br />makes findings that all of the criteria, as established under section 17.48.110, have been <br />satisfied insofar as applicable: <br />1. That there are unique physical circumstances or conditions such as irregularity, <br />narrowness or shallowness of lot, or exceptional topographical or other physical <br />conditions peculiar to the affected property. Staff finds that this criterion is met. <br />These lots are double frontage lots with the unusual condition of the homes on the <br />opposite side of St. Andrews Lane facing the rear yards of these homes. Normally <br />double frontage lots are configured such that the rear yards back up to an arterial <br />or collector street with no homes on the opposite side of the street facing the rear <br />yard. The topography is also an unusual factor in this area. The homes along <br />Troon Court are built at a substantially higher elevation that the homes on St. <br />Andrews Lane. The homes developed on the lots on Troon Court west of the <br />subject properties have constructed a series of retaining walls with a total height <br />of over 10 feet along the St. Andrews Lane frontage. However, the rear yards of <br />the subject properties are at about the same elevation as the front yards of the <br />homes on the opposite side of St. Andrews Lane. <br />2 <br />
