Table of off-street parking requirements. Medical and dental office – 1 space per 200 sq. ft. of usable floor area 5. Petitioner & Owner Stephen R. Etsey, Dykema Gossett PPLC, petitioner, & Martin – 11, LLC, owner 6. Findings The subject property is located at the northeast corner of E. 11 Mile Road and N. Troy Street. It was previously utilized as a food packaging and distribution center with ancillary retail sales and professional office. The prior uses required 27 off-street parking spaces. The petitioner proposes to convert the building into two medical office tenant spaces. In the absence of a floor plan for each tenant space, the required amount off-street parking is calculated at 80% of the gross floor area per the zoning ordinance. The petitioner has identified the building’s gross floor area as 14,715 square feet. The proposed medical offices require a total of 59 off-street parking spaces. The existing parking lot located to the rear of the building will be re-striped to accommodate 46 off-street parking spaces. The petitioner is seeking a variance to waive 13 of the minimum required 59 off-street parking spaces. As a point of reference, the table below compares the required amount of off-street parking per land use based on zoning ordinance provisions. table of uses & required off-street parking uses required off-street parking per usable sq. ft. retail sale of furniture & appliances 1 per 800 sq. ft. general retail sale 1 per 250 sq. ft. prof. or medical office 1 per 225 sq. ft. fitness center 1 per 4 persons based on max. occupancy carry-out restaurant 1 per 200 sq. ft. convenience store 1 per 200 sq. ft. dine-in restaurant 1 per 65 sq. ft. 7. Decision Per § 770-124 (E) of the Zoning Ordinance: Upon an appeal, the Board is authorized to grant a variance from the strict provisions of this chapter, whereby unique, extraordinary or exceptional conditions of such property, the strict application of the regulations enacted would result in peculiar or exceptional practical difficulties to, or exceptional undue hardship upon the owner of such property, provided such relief may be granted without substantial detriment to the public good and without substantially impairing the intent and purpose of this chapter. In granting a variance, the Board may attach thereto such conditions regarding the location, character and other features of the proposed uses as it may deem reasonable in furtherance of the purpose of this chapter. Further, in granting a variance, the Board shall state the grounds upon which it justifies the granting of a variance as outline below. When granting any variance, the Board must ensure that the spirit of this chapter is observed, public safety secured, and natural resources protected. The Board shall determine that the variance approval, either as proposed by the applicant or as otherwise determined by the Board based upon the record, is the minimum relief necessary in order to achieve substantial justice. The Board shall not have the power to consider an appeal of any decision concerning a special land use or planned unit development, unless specifically authorized to do so by the Planning Commission. 2. Nonuse variances. The applicant must present evidence to show that if this chapter is applied strictly, practical difficulties will result to the applicant and that all four of the following requirements are met: a. That this chapter’s restrictions unreasonably prevent the owner from using the property for a permitted purpose; Report of Findings – Case No. 19-07-21 309 E. 11 Mile Rd. Page 3 of 3 b. That the variance would do substantial justice to the applicant as well as to other property owners in the district, and a lesser relaxation than that requested would not give substantial relief to the owner of the property or be more consistent with justice to other property owners; c. That the plight of the landowner is due to the unique circumstances of the property; and d. That the alleged hardship has not been created by any person presently having an interest in the property. Nonuse Variances require 5 affirmative votes for approval. cc: Stephen Etsey, Dykema Gossett PLLC, 39577 Woodward Ave., Bloomfield Hills, MI 48304 Martin – 11, LLC, 326 E. 4th St., Ste. 200, Royal Oak, MI 48067 It is recommended that the petitioner or a representative attend the July 11, 2019 Zoning Board of Appeals meeting.

    Fred H. Schott & Associates CIVIL AND STRUCTURAL ENGINEERS City of Lompoc January 11, 2013 Attn: Craig Dierling, P.E. 100 Civic Center Plaza Lompoc, CA Re: Structural Observation of Lompoc Theater, 112-118 North H Street, Lompoc, Ca. Dear Craig, On December 13, 2012, a site visit was performed for the Lompoc Theater to determine the existing conditions, structural sufficiency, and structural deterioration, then make recommendations to rehabilitate each roof structure to meet current code. Each area of the theater was examined and the following was found: The Fly-Tower roof structure has multiple holes in a large roof hatch which are allowing water and pigeons to get inside the stage area. Based on our previous inspection in 1993, the fly-tower roof has 1x6 straight sheathing boards which can not transfer shear loads. There is also no shear connection between the roof and the walls. The exterior concrete walls have a few minor cracks, but are in good shape. The beams beneath the stage floor appear to be undamaged and the majority of the ceiling beneath the stage does not have water damage so the joists are most likely not damaged either. Towards the north end of the stage, the ceiling beneath shows substantial water damage and mold growth. The joists at this location may be damaged also. The floor sheathing on the stage area has been exposed to weather and pigeon droppings, but appears to be solid. Further opening of the stage may expose mold or rotten wood. Figure 1: Holes in roof hatch above the stage. Figure 2: Framing beneath stage; small crack in basement wall.
