1201.05 ADMINISTRATION, VARIANCES AND APPEAL
Subd.3. Variances.
a. Criteria. In considering all requests for a variance and in taking subsequent
action, the city staff, the Planning Commission and the City Council, serving as the
Board of Adjustments and Appeals, may approve a variance application upon
finding that all of the following criteria, as applicable, are met:
(1) The variance, and its resulting construction and use, is consistent
with the intent of the comprehensive plan and in harmony with the
general purposes and intent of this Chapter.
(2) The applicant has established that there are practical difficulties in
complying with this Chapter. Practical difficulties mean:
(a) The property owner proposes to use the property in a
reasonable manner not permitted by this Chapter.
(b) The plight of the landowner is due to circumstances unique
to the property not created by the landowner.
(c) The variance, if approved, would not alter the essential
character of the locality.
(3) The variance would not be based exclusively on economic
considerations.
(4) The variance shall not impair an adequate supply of light and air to
adjacent property, unreasonably increase the congestion in the
public street, or increase the danger of fire or endanger the public
safety.
(5) The variance, and its resulting construction or project, would not be
detrimental to the public welfare, nor would it be injurious to other
land or improvements in the neighborhood.
(6) The variance is the minimum variance necessary to address or
alleviate the practical difficulties.
b. Procedure.

shall be filed with the Zoning Administrator on an official
application form. The application shall be accompanied by a fee as
provided for by City Council resolution. The application shall also

Section 4. Subdivision Regulations Section 1202.03 Subd. 2 is hereby amended as
follows:
1202.03 PROCEDURES FOR FILING AND REVIEW.
Subd. 1. Sketch plan. In order to insure that all applicants are informed of the procedural
requirements and minimum standards of this chapter, and the requirements or limitations
imposed by other city ordinances or plans prior to the development of a preliminary plat, all
applicants shall present a sketch plan to the Zoning Administrator prior to filing a preliminary
plat.
Subd. 2. Preliminary Plat.
a. Filing. Five copies of the preliminary plat d mailing list of „M^roVrTT

established by City Council resolution shall be paid and any necessary applications for variances
from the provisions of this chapter shall be submitted with the required fee. The proposal must

Commission agenda for the first Tuesday of the following month. The plan shall be considered
as being officially submitted when all the information requirements have been complied with.
Section 5. Subdivision Regulations Section 1202.03 Subd. 2 a. 1. is hereby amended as
follows:
1202.09 VARIANCES AND APPEALS.
Subd. 1. Findings. The Planning Commission may recommend a variance from the
minimum standards of this chapter, but not procedural provisions, when in its opinion, undue
hardship may result from strict compliance. In recommending any variance, the Commission
shall prescribe any conditions that it deem necessary to or desirable for the public interest. In
making its recommendations, the Planning Commission shall take into account the nature of the
proposed use of land and the existing use of land in the vicinity, the number of persons to reside
or work in the proposed subdivision and the probable effect of the proposed subdivision upon
traffic conditions in the vicinity. A variance shall only be recommended when the Planning
Commission finds:
a. There are special and highly unique circumstances or conditions affecting
the property that are not common to other properties in the city and that the strict application of
the provisions of this chapter would deprive the applicant of the reasonable and minimum use of
its land;
b. That the granting of the variance will not be detrimental to the public
health or welfare or injurious to other property in the vicinity in which the property is situated;
C. That the variance is to correct inequities resulting from an extreme
hardship limited to topography, soils or other physical factors of the land.
d. After consideration of the Planning Commission recommendations, the
City Council may grant variances, subject to a, b, and c, above.
Subd. 2. Variance application procedures.
a. Procedure.
(1) Application. Appeals or requests for variances, as provided within

written and graphic materials fully explaining the proposed change, development or use and a
Section 6. This Ordinance shall be in full force and effect upon publication in the
