Subject: Variance Extension Request, VAR #03-17, Jim Kiewel
M-04-77
INTRODUCTION
Jim Kiewel, property owner of 1631 Rice Creek Road was granted a variance on August
14, 2003, to increase the maximum size of a first accessory structure from 1,000 square
feet to 1,390 square feet to allow the construction of a 22 ft. by 37 ft. addition to his
existing garage. As with all variances granted, the petitioner has one year from the date
of approval to initiate construction.
On June 14, 2004, staff received a letter from Mr. Kiewel requesting a 1-year extension
as he has had a number of projects come up this year that left him with insufficient time
to complete his garage addition.
PLANNING STAFF RECOMMNEDATION
City Staff recommends approval of the 1-year extension ensuring that the garage
addition is complete by August 11, 2005.

item is an addition of �12,240.00
This change also eliminated the following three items: Remove bituminous pavement and curb,

Upon inspection, Staff determined that a catch basin was in immediate need of replacement
Staff negotiated with the Contractor to identify the work and agreed on the cost of the work.
I�et cost for this item is an addition of �1,674.50
