THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF CYPRESS HEREBY FINDS, RESOLVES,
DETERMINES, AND ORDERS AS FOLLOWS:
1. That an application was filed for a variance from the terms Sections 13.4 -3.A. and
E. of the Zoning Ordinance of the City of Cypress to allow a satellite dish antenna to remain
less than five (5) feet from the property line, less than ten (10) feet from the house structure,
and higher than fifteen (15) feet at 9847 Ravari within the PC -25A Planned Community Zone.
2. That the City Council, after proper notice thereof, duly held a public hearing on
said application as provided by law.
3. That the City Council hereby finds that:
(a) The strict or literal interpretation and enforcement of the specified
regulation would not deprive the applicant /property owner of privileges enjoyed by the
owners of other properties in the same zone, because other similar satellite dish antennas
which have been approved were in compliance with the fifteen -foot (15') height limit.
(b) The granting of the variance would constitute the granting of a special
privilege inconsistent with the limitations on other properties in the vicinity classified in
the same zone, also because previously approved similar satellite dish antennas do not
vary from the maximum fifteen -foot (15') height limit.
(c) The granting of the variance as conditioned would not be detrimental to
the public health, safety, or welfare, or be materially injurious to properties or
improvements in the vicinity, but would result in an aesthetic impact on surrounding
properties due to the proposed twenty -foot (20') height.
(d) Locating the antenna in conformance with the required specifications
would not obstruct the antenna's reception window or otherwise excessively interfere
with reception, and the cost of meeting the specifications of the specified regulation is
not excessive, given the cost of the antenna, because the cost of lowering the satellite
dish antenna or relocating it in conformance with the Zoning Ordinance requirements is
not excessive in comparison to the cost of the subject satellite dish antenna.
(e) The denial of the proposed variance does not prohibit the installation of
a satellite dish antenna, because the relocation of the proposed satellite dish antenna in
conformance with the Zoning Ordinance requirements is both physically and financially
feasible.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the City Council of the City
of Cypress does hereby deny Variance No. 95 -6.
PASSED AND ADOPTED by the City Council of the City of Cypress at a regular
meeting held on the 11th day of September , 1995.
