Section 3. Based on the evidence received at the public hearing, the Planning Commission makes the following factual findings: 1. The applicant is proposing a 698 square foot expansion to a single-family dwelling, resulting in an increase of valuation of 99% while maintaining a nonconforming side yard.

The existing nonconforming side yard to be maintained is not significant or unusual in regards to compatibility with neighboring properties; 2.
