The area of the parcel would allow 32 rooms. The 6uilding at 2338 Marshall has legal nonconforming use status far 29 one-bedroom apartment units, or a total of 5� rooms. The applicant is requesting a variance to allow a total of 60 rooms. A verbal opinion recently issued 6y Jerry Segal , Assistant City Attorney, is applica6le to this case. Ne has informed the Board of Zoning Appeals that they do not have the authority to grant density variances; a density variance (i .e. , permitting more "rooms" on a parcel than allowed by Section 61 .101 (f) of the Zoninc� Ordinance) would constitute a "use" variance, which is prohibited 6y state law, The Board of Zoning Appeals conducted a public hearing on the variance request of Patsy Monno on March 25, 1980, and passed a motion to deny the variance request on a roll call vote of 5 to 0. A formal resolution denying the variance was passed by the Board of Zoning Appeals on April 8, 1980 b,y a vote of 7 to 0. This matter is scheduled for hearing before the City Council on May 22, 1980.

Ans hardship that ex.ists ia self created, true, but this tuiit waa installed a couple of }ears ago because the space was ju3t being wasted and ►n� costs were going up greatl�, (letter o: utilits exPen3e is enclosed). ine letter from The Diviaion of Houaing, statea, granting. relie� cannot : be made, without imparing the �ntent and purpose of the ordin2nce. Well, in readi.�g from a manual which I saw at the Diviaion of Houaing, it atated the re2sons for not allowing basement Units in general. I�,ainley it aafa ±heT do not allaw; 1. adequsLe Light, 2. adequate ventil.ation & 3. easT exit in the event of an emergenc7. Tnia Unit haa 5 double hung windows, four are 58 inches wide bT 50 inches high and one ia k0 inches wide by 50 inches hi�h, so it haa adequate liohting and ventilation. Alao( aa per blueprint attached) An exit door from the bedroon ro�ould be` installed to - ; provide eaar exit aa it would be just 2'!." belaw grade in that area. �ranti,�►g thia variance would have no detrimental effect an propertT within the surrounding area because it ia completelg self contained.
