BOARD OF ZONING ADJUSTMENT
RIVERSIDE, MISSOURI
Thursday, May 23, 2024
5:30 p.m.
The Board of Zoning Adjustment for the City of Riverside, Missouri, met in regular session on Wednesday, August 16,
2023.
The meeting was called to order at 5:30 p.m. Answering roll call were Chris Craig, John Heryear, Rick
Euwer and Lowell Hickman. Also present: Sarah Wagner, City Planner, Joseph Hershwe, Variance
Applicant and Rhonda Smith, Community Admin.
Approval of Minutes of John Heryar moved to approve the minutes of November 2, 2023,
November 2, 2023. seconded by Rick Euwer. Motion passed 4-0.
Request for variance from Sarah Wagner, City Planner, gave a staff report. She explained that the
rear setback — 4703 NW applicant, Joseph Hershwe, is requesting for accessory structures. The
Montebella Drive applicant started a 96 square foot structure to house pool equipment that
does not meet the 10-foot rear setback. The applicant is requesting the
setback be relaxed to five feet.
Per Section 400.280 of the UDO a variance should meet 5 conditions
for approval.
1. The need for a variance arises from a condition which is unique
and peculiar to the property in question and which is not prevalent
in the neighborhood and ordinarily not found in the same zone or
district, and further, is not created by an action or actions of the
property owner or applicant.
The applicant's property that the structure is located on is
approximately 0.27 acres. However, they also own the lot to the east
which is approximately 0.23 acres and the lot to the west which is
approximately 0.32 acres giving them a total of 0.82 acres of land in the
Montebella subdivision. In addition, the property backs up to
greenspaces, owned and maintained by the homeowner's association.
The applicant's pool equipment has been in this location since the pool
was installed. The equipment is permitted to be located within the
setback, but not a structure to protect it.
2. The strict application of the subject provisions will constitute
unnecessary hardship to the applicant.
The applicant is attempting to construct a structure to protect his pool
equipment. Without the structure it will likely cause the equipment to
fail and require the applicant to replace it more often than if it was
protected from the elements.
3. The granting of the variance will not adversely affect the rights
of adjacent property owners or residents.
1
The applicant owns the property adjacent to the location of the structure
and there is green space behind the structure. This will not adversely
impact the adjacent property owners.
4. The granting of the variance will not adversely affect the public
health, safety, moral or general welfare of the community.
Granting the variance will not adversely affect the public, health, safety,
or welfare of the community.
5. The granting of the variance will not be opposed to the general
spirit and intent of the ordinance from which the variance is sought
and will not be in conflict with any existing laws or ordinances.
The granting of this variance will not be opposed to the general spirit of
the ordinance as this is a unique situation where the property owner
owns both lots adjacent to the location of the structure as well as green
space directly behind it. The pool equipment already exists. The
applicant is simply adding a structure to screen and protect the
equipment that matches his house and will blend better with the
surroundings.
Recommendation
Section 400.280.A.5 of the UDO stated that, in order for the Board of
Zoning Adjustment to approve a variance, the applicant must prove the
above listed conditions. Staff would support the granting of the
variance.
Chris Craig moved to approve the proposed variance; seconded by
Lowell Hickman. Motion approved 4-0.
Adjournment Chris Craig moved to adjourn the meeting at 5:35 p.m., seconded by
Rick Euwer.
The meeting was adjourned 4 -0.

Upstream from ordinary.
4124 NW Riverside Street
Parcel # 23-2.0-04-300-003-014.000
General Information
Applicant: Doug Davis- Luke Draily Construction for Eaton Chemical
Location: 4703 NW Montebella Drive
Application: Variance from the 10-foot rear setback for non-residential accessory structures (UDO
Section 400.490)
Zoning: I Industrial
Existing Land Use: Industrial
Analysis
The applicant is requesting a variance from the Unified Development Ordinance (UDO) Section 400.490
regulating the construction of accessory structures. The applicant would like to add a maintenance
garage on their property located at 4124 NW Riverside Street. To fit the building and have the needed
maneuvering lanes for truck traffic the applicant needs to construct the building on the property line with
no set back. The addition of this garage will allow the applicant to do maintenance on their equipment
indoors and help eliminate some of their outdoor storage. In addition, the applicant will be paving this
area brining it into compliance with city standards of requiring hard surface parking.
Per Section 400.280 of the UDO a variance should meet 5 conditions for approval.
1. The need for a variance arises from a condition which is unique and peculiar to the property in
question and which is not prevalent in the neighborhood and ordinarily not found in the same zone
or district, and further, is not created by an action or actions of the property owner or applicant.
The applicant has approximately 2.5 acres with two existing buildings. The property is bound by the
Riverside Quindaro Bend Levee and Line Creek to the west, Riverside Street to the east and existing
buildings to the north and south, including the City's Public Works campus. In addition the existing
buildings were originally constructed in the early 1960's.
2. The strict application of the subject provisions will constitute unnecessary hardship to the
applicant.
The applicant wishes to construct a maintenance garage to work on their equipment while being
protected from the elements.
3. The granting of the variance will not adversely affect the rights of adjacent property owners or
residents.
The applicant's additional building will not adversely impact other neighboring business. The Fire
Marshal has reviewed the site plan and there is no concern with having the building right on the property
Page 1 of 2
line and being in closer proximity to the building to the south. All properties in the area are zoned
industrial are operate in a similar capacity.
4. The granting of the variance will not adversely affect the public health, safety, moral or general
welfare of the community.
Granting the variance will not adversely affect the public, health, safety, or welfare of the community.
5. The granting of the variance will not be opposed to the general spirit and intent of the ordinance
from which the variance is sought and will not be in conflict with any existing laws or ordinances.
The granting of this variance will not be opposed to the general spirit of the ordinance. There are other
structures in the area that have been constructed on the property line. The new building will be
constructed in accordance with the City's development standards and meet all other requirements.
Recommendation
Section 400.280.A.5 of the UDO stated that, in order for the Board of Zoning Adjustment to approve a
variance, the applicant must prove the above listed conditions. Staff would support the granting of the
variance.
