WHEREAS, Magic Foam has applied for a certificate of
occupancy for a building which requires a variance from Section
26.4.2-8, Development Standards, of the Comprehensive Zoning
Ordinance, for the property located at 4340 49th Street; and
WHEREAS, the physical condition of the property is
unique in that the existing building measuring approximately
15,400 square feet was constructed with four nonconforming truck
docks, two of which have been recessed to meet the current code
and the remaining two measure 30.7 feet from the street right-
of-way and 9.0 feet wide; and
WHEREAS, Magic Foam will operate the building as a
manufacturing operation, and Zoning Ordinance Section 24.4.2-7

8,001 and 25,000 square feet in size; and
WHEREAS, Zoning Ordinance Section 26.4.2-8 specifies
that each loading space shall be a minimum of 10 feet wide and
65 feet long and Section 26.4.6-4 (c) provides that a
nonconforming building must comply with these standards with
