FORMAT FOR POSITIVE MOTIONS
Non-Conforming Structures - From Section 11-6.3
I move to authorize the
a. substitution of one non-conforming use for another because
the extent of the substituted use is less detrimental to the
environment than the first;
b. r enlargement of a building or use devoted to a non-conforming
use where such extension or enlargement is necessary and
incidental to the existing use and does not increase the area
of the building devoted to a non-conforming use more than 25
and does not prolong the life of the non-conforming use or
prevent a return of such property to a conforming use;
c. reconstruction of a non-conforming structure on the lot
occupied by such structure as the cost of reconstruction is
less than 60i of the appraised value of the structure and
because the reconstruction would not prevent the return of
such property to a conforming use or increase the non-conformity.

AGENDA ITEM N0. 4: Consideration of a request for a variance to the parking requirements
to open a restaurant at 305 West University. Application is in the name of Don Ganter.
Mrs. Kee explained the request, locating the area on the map.
Don Ganter, 2300 E. 29th Street, was sworn in. He stated that this is one of the oldest
buildings in the Northgate area, and he plans to open a restaurant which is strictly
fast food, primarily walk-in business, since the building's size, 12~ ft. by 100 ft.,
does not lend itself to many tables. He said there is barely room in the rear for two
parking spaces, and he would prefer to put in no tables at all.
Mr. McGuirk asked Mr. Ganter what he meant in stating that he preferred to have no seats
since the application states he plans to create a restaurant with 36 seats.
Mr. Ganter explained that he had n®t added the information about 36 seats to the appli-
cation, but that he wanted to put in 4 tables, 16 seats, not 36 seats.
Brief discussion followed on allowing Mr. Ganter to change the application from 36 seats
to 16 seats since this would change the number of parking spaces for which a variance
is needed.
Mrs. Cook asked if the Board would agree to accept substitution of "16" for "36" on the
application and consider the variance for the amended application.
. Mr. Upham moved to accept the amended application, Mr. McGuirk seconded, and the motion
passed unanimously (5-0).
Mr. McGuirk moved to authorize a variance to the parking requirements (Section 7) from the
terms of this Ordinance as it will not be contrary to the public interest, due to the
' following unique and special conditions of the land not normally found in like districts:
(1) No existing alternate parking is available, and because a strict enforcement of this
Ordinance would result in unnecessary hardship to this applicant being: Forcing the
applicant to maintain an unuBeable building; and such that the spirit of this Ordinance
shall be observed and substantial justice done, subject to the following limitations:
(1) The approval be limited to 6 spaces (16 seats) at the applicant's request. Mr. Wendt
seconded the motion, which carried unanimously (5-0).
AGENDA ITEM N0. 5: Consideration of a parking variance request for a hotel proposed at
the southwest corner of Wellborn and Jersey Streets. Application is in the name of
Chang/Loft Investments. Item was tabled June 19, 1984.
Mrs. Kee states that the applicant wished to withdraw this application,
Mr. Wendt moved to remove the item from the table so that it could be withdrawn.
Mr. Wagner seconded, and the motion was passed unanimously (5-0),
Item was withdrawn.

Discussion followed on the status of the new Northgate Ordinance, with various members of
the Board remarking that since the Board will have the responsibility for enforcing the
new Ordinance, they would like to meet with staff to express their concerns before the
new Ordinance is written and presented in public hearings. Mrs. Kee agreed to set up
an informal work session on Thursday, July 19, 1984, between Board members and Director
of Planning Mayo. Staff will notify members of the meeting time.
