AUGUST 14, 1996 PAGE 20 Street N.E.; from 35 feet to 15 feet on Lot 5, Block 2, Nagels Woodlands, generally addressed as 7539 Abie Street N.E.; and from 35 feet to 15 feet on Lot 6, Block 2, Nageis Woodlands, generally addressed as 7527 Able Street N.E., to allow the construction of detached two-car garages. MOTION by Dr. Vos, seconded by Ms. Beaulieu, to waive the reading of the public hearing notice and to open the public hearing. UPON A VOICE VOTE, ALL VOTING AYE, CHAIRPERSON DECLARED THE MOTION CARRIED AND THE PUBLIC HEARING OPEN AT 9:05 P.M. Ms. McPherson stated this is a multi-property request for properties on Able Street. Located on each of the properties is a duplex which measures 22 feet x 66 feet which were constructed in 1963. The petitioner has submitted three Froperty surveys. These are double fronted lots with Able Street to the west and Baker Street to the east. Baker Street at the north end has a slight curve to 1he west which shortens the depth of the lots to the north end. Staff has broken the variance request into two parts. The first is for the property at 7595 Qble Street for wt�ich the petitioner ha� requested a variance to 7 feet from 35 feet. Staff recommends this be increased to 12 feet. This will result in 5 feet between the dwelling and the garage and provide adequate space for parking. Ms. McPherson stated the second part of the request is for the remaining properties. The variance request by the petitioner is to 15 feet from 35 feet and the garage doors would face Baker Street. In 1975, the City did grant a similar variance to the properties along the south portion of the street. For that request, the petitioner had requested a variance to 18 feet but the City granted the variance to 20.5 feet. The comment from that petitioner was that 20 feet was a better setback. For the remaining properties, staff recommends a variance to 20 feet for more consistent site lines and for adequate off street parking. Ms. Beaulieu stated staff is recommending that the one property go from 7 feet to 12 feet and the other properties go from 15 feet to 20 feet. Is there room to do that? Ms. McPherson stated yes, especially as you go further south. The lots there increase in width substantially. There is room to move the garages an additional 5" feet. Mr. Kuechle asked for the distance between the property line and the curb. Ms. McPherson stated that distance is 9 feet. Ms. Beaulieu asked if any of these garages were existing. " � � � APPEALS COMMiSSION MEETING, AUGUST 14, 1996 PAGE 21 Ms. McPherson stated no. There is a garage on one site but she did not know if that' property belonged to the petitioner. That garage appears to be at the 20-fioot setback. �,_ Mr. Chies stated he is looking to extend a line and maintain the same motif. He is trying to upgrade the area. He has no objection to the change. His only concern is that the lot to the north has room for the tenants to park. Dr. Vos stated this would also provide for additional. off-street parking. . Mr. Chies stated each lot has two parking spots there now. He will do whatever the City thinks will look best. MOTION by Dr. Vos, seconded by Ms. Beaulieu, to close the public hearing. UPON A VOICE VOTE, ALL VOTING AYE, CHAIRPERSON KUECHLE DECLARED THE MOTION CARRtED AND THE PUBLIC HEARING CLOSED AT 9:12 P.M. Ms. Beaulieu s#ated she would recommend approval as recommend by staff to 12 feet and 20 feet. She drove down the street and it is noticeable that some have garages and others do not. She thought it would be a help. . Dr: Vos stated the hardship is the double fronted lots. It is difficult to put anything at 35 feet. This is also an improvement. He would vote for approval with 12 feet and 20 feet. MOTION by Ms. Beaulieu, seconded by Dr. Vos, to recommend approval of Variance Request, #96-16, by Tim Chies to reduce the rear yard setback for an accessory structure on a double-fronted lot from 35 feet to 12 feet on Lot 1, Block 2, Nagels Woodlands, generally addressed as 7595 Able Street N.E.; from 35 feet to 20 feet on Lot 2, Block 2, Nagels Woodlands, generally addressed as 7579 Able Street N.E.; from 35 feet to 20 feet on Lot 3, Block 2, Nagels Woodlands, generally addressed as 7565 Able Street N.E.; from 35 feet to 20 feet on Lot 4, Block 2, Nage{s Wood{ands, generally addressed as 7553 Able Street N.E.; from 35 feet to 20 feet on Lot 5, Block 2, Nagels Woodlands, generally addressed as 7539 Able Street N.E.; and from 35 feet to 20 feet on Lot 6, Block 2, Nagels Woodlands, generally addressed as 7527 Able Street N.E_, to allow the construction of detached finro-car garages.
