Title
Rochester College Library Addition  - located on the north side of Avon Road, west of Rochester Road, Parcel No. 15-15-376-001, zoned SP (Special Purpose) District; Rochester College, Applicant - Request for Approval of Height Modification
 
Body
Resolved that the Rochester Hills City Council approves the Height Modification, as indicated on the plans dated received by the Planning Department June 9, 2003, for the Rochester College Library Addition, Parcel Number 15-15-376-001, zoned SP, Special Purpose, (City File No. 94-426.7), with the following findings:
 
FINDINGS:
1.      The front, side and rear yard setbacks are at least equal in depth to the height of the proposed library addition.
2.      The proposed height is the same as the existing Library to which it is being connected.  Further, the roof slope and appearance are consistent with the current structure.
3.      The increased height will not be incompatible with the surrounding and nearby topography, existing and reasonably expected development, the zoning plan for the area, and the health, safety, and welfare of the City.
