Variance Appeals:
2702
An appeal regarding the requirement to provide a minimum lot size of 7,200
square feet at 2652 George Street, La Crosse, Wisconsin.
Andy Berzinski, representing the Building and Inspections Department, was sworn in to
speak. Berzinski reviewed the three requirements for granting a variance: unnecessary
hardship, hardship due to unique property limitations, and no harm to public interest.
Berzinski stated that at 2653 George Street and 2658 George Street, the applicant has
applied to divide the current parcel into two separate parcels. The proposed lots are a
single-family residence of 9,233 square feet and the other lot containing a tavern of
4,500 square feet that does not meet the minimum lot size requirements. Berzinski
cited Municipal Code Section 115-142. (c)(2) Every lot in the Single-Family Residence
