Commission grants variance to allow generator at 6071 SW 85th Street
Summary
After a quasi-judicial hearing with procedural warnings and a sworn applicant, the commission approved a variance request to permit placement of a generator at 6071 SW 85th Street, adopting staff-recommended conditions by roll call.
The commission held a quasi-judicial hearing on an applicant’s request to place a generator at 6071 SW 85th Street. The city attorney outlined quasi-judicial process rules, swore in the applicant’s witness and asked the commission whether any ex parte communications had occurred; none were disclosed.
Staff pointed to applicable variance criteria in the land-development code (section 20-5.9) and recommended conditions for approval. No members of the public offered testimony. The commission moved to adopt the variance with the conditions as presented by staff; the clerk called the roll and the motion carried unanimously.
A commissioner asked staff to consider whether future cases of the same type suggest code updates so residents would not have to seek variances for commonly requested equipment like generators; staff agreed to investigate.
