Noonan (contract purchaser) for variations from the control over use, control over bulk, build- ing on lot, use, height, yard, non -conforming structures and uses, and struc- tures designed for a non -conforming use, regulations of the Evanston Zoning Ordinance adopted November 21, 1960 as amended, and as they apply to the - property located at 1400-1414 Oak Avenue, Evanston, Illinois, located in an R1 Single-family Residence District, said public hearing having been conducted pursuant to notice and publication thereof as provided by law; and WHEREAS, the Zoning Board of Appeals has recommended that such relief be denied; and • WHEREAS, the City Council of the City of Evanston makes the following findings a fact with reference to said application for variations: The variation will not alter the essential character of the locality, but will not allow it to be retained. The variation will be beneficial, and will not be detrimental to the public welfare or injurious to or depreciate the value of other property or improvements in the neighborhood, but will allow the historic character to be preserved, in accordance with our Comprehensive General Plan. The variation will not impair an adequate supply of light and air to adjacent property, nor substantially increase the danger of fire or otherwise endanger the public safety, because no change will be created, The Council therefore finds that the variation, if granted,.will be in harmony with the general purpose'and intent of the ordinance.
