August '81 THE URBAN DWELLED a monthly publication of Capitol Hill United Neighborhoods SSUE 15 LAWSUIT FILED CHUN Opposes Motor Bank On July 16 CHUN filed a lawsuit in Denver District Court challenging the decision of the Board of Adjustment Zoning, which upheld the decision of the Zoning Administration allowing United Bank to erect-a 21-unit motor bank in the 1700 block of Grant Street. The zoning administrator, Anthony Jansen, had approved a permit application on the basis that the motor bank was an addition to an existing bank accessory use. CHUN had appealed Mr. Jansen!s decision to the Board of Adjustment and Zoning and appeared at a hearing before the board in May. The board denied the appeal, but did find that CHUN had legal standing to challenge the decision. The finding as to legal standing was a minor victory, because CHUN's ability to bring a lawsuit as a neighborhood group had been challenged. CHUN's position in the lawsuit is that a motor bank is not a use by right or a valid accessory use in an R-4 zone. The relief requested includes an order requiring the cessation of construction (which is ongoing) and to reverse the decision of the Board of Adjustment Zoning. Community Opinions Sought On Local Zoning Issues Someday you may be given a leaflet that asks for your help in determining CHUN's position on a zoning issue near your home. In an effort to better represent the residents of the neighborhood, CHUN is taking major zoning issue decisions to the neighbors. We are leaf letting the neighborhoods where developments are proposed, inviting local residents to join us at meetings where the proposal is discussed and opinions can be expressed. Neighborhood sentiment mixed with the expertise of the zoning and land use committee then determines CHUN's position on the development. CHUN will continue to strive to represent the neighborhood as responsibly as possible. This is a new process on which we are still working. If you have ideas that will help us fetermine and incorporate local views in the positions that CHUN takes, please share them with us. $CHUNFUN$ The CHUN FUNdraising committee will be meeting on Wednesday, August 19, at 7:30p.m. at the CHUN office, 1290 Williams. You can help get fun and exciting (and lucrative) events organized. You can even help dream up ^Ahat they should be--a flea circus? a haunted house? a treasure hunt? Come be creative and help CHUN have FUNds.
