The current property was built on the property line in 1969. I would like to add a bathroom on that meets today standards for the diabled and elderly. I am a dentist and this would be an asset to the staff and the patients. I also do not have a breakroom for my staff. This would not seem important to many businesses but we must adhere to strict OSHA ordiances. I would like to provide a breakroom for that staff that would allow them to keep their lunches and food away from our lab, sterilization center, disposable trash. This variance is necessary due to the following special conditions: Special Condition Definition: To justify a variance, the difficulty must be due to unique circumstances involving the particular property. The unique circumstances must be related to a physical characteristic of the property itself, not to the owner's personal situation. This is because regardless of ownership, the variance will run with the land. Example: A creek bisecting a lot, a smaller buildable area than is seen on surrounding lots, specimen trees. Note: A cul-de-sac is a standard street layout in College Station. The shape of standard cul-de-sac lots are generally not special conditions. I need this variance to add-on because current set backs are not possible. When this property was built the building was placed on the property line with no set back. The unnecessary hardship (s) involved by meeting the provisions of the ordinance other than financial hardship is/are: Hardship Definition: The inability to make reasonable use of the property in accord with the literal requirements of the law. The hardship must be a direct result of the special condition. Example: A hardship of a creek bisecting a lot could be the reduction of the buildable area on the lot, when compared to neighboring properties. I am not able to add a break room or bathroom on this property unless there is no setback. The following alternatives to the requested variance are possible: Move to another location --- however I would like to stay at my current location, add on the enhancements and remodel the building to help enhance the entrance to historic Eastgate. This variance will not be contrary to the public interest by virtue of the following facts: I am not invading anyone's property . I would be enhancing the public interest by making my location safer, help generate tax revenue and more esthetic. I also would prefer to be in OSHA compliance on the employee break room. I also need an ADA handicap compliant restroom for my patients especially the elderly patients with special restroom needs that I see daily in private practice. The applicant has prepared this application and supporting information and certifies that the facts stated herein and exhibits attached hereto are true,and correct. IF APPLICATION IS FILED BY ANYONE OTHER THAN THE OWNER OF THE PROPERTY, APPLICATION MUST BE ACCOMPANIEDYA P WER,OF ATTORNEY STATEMENT FROM THE OWNER. // 74ç kr 9 , September 27, 2007 Page 3 Qt 6
