Staff Report
VAR #93-03, 5069 Clearview Street N.E., by Thomas & Arlene Ludwig
Page 1
A. STATED HARDSHIP:
"Need to build addition, angled lot causes setback conflict."
B. ADMINISTRATIVE STAFF REVIEW:
Request
The petitioner requests that a variance be granted to the side
yard setback requirement to reduce the setback from 10 feet
to 9 feet on Lot 11, Block 5, of Carlson's Summit Manor South
Addition, the same being 5069 Clearview Street.
Site
The subject parcel is located in the southwest corner of the
City. Located on the property is a single family dwelling
unit with a detached two-car garage. The property is zoned
R-1, Single Family Dwelling, as are all surrounding
properties.
Anal�sis
Section 205.07.03.D.(2).(a) requires a side yard setback of
ten feet between any living area and side property line.
Public purpose served by this requirement is to maintain a
minimum of 20 feet between living areas in adjacent structures
and 15 feet between garages and living areas in adjacent
structures to reduce the possibility of fire. It is also to
allow for aesthetically pleasing open areas around residential
structures .
The petitioner is proposing to construct a 28 ft. by 16 ft.
addition off the rear of the property. The petitioner has
analyzed a variety of options to eliminate the need for a
variance. The options, if pursued, would make construction
more difficult and would also conflict with the window
placement and floor layout of the existing house. The
petitioner could shorten the addition to 27 feet; however, the
exterior wall of the addition would not align itself with the
exterior wall of the house. The petitioner could also angle
the wall of the addition to parallel the property line;
however, this would increase the expense of the addition.
The granting of the variance would not adversely impact the
adjacent property as the structures on the adjacent property
are located 20 feet from the property line.

CONSIDERA,TION OF VARIANCE REQUEST VAR #93-03 BY THOMAS AND
ARLENE LUDW.IG •
Per Section 205.07.03.D.(2).(a) of the Fridley City Code, to
reduce the side yard setback from 10 feet to 9 feet to allow
the construction of additional living space on Lot 11, Block
5, Carlson's Summit Manor South, the same being 5069 Clearview
Street N.E.
MOTION by Dr. Vos, seconded by Mr. Kuechle, to open the public
hearing.
IIPON A VOICE VOTE, ALL VOTING AYE, CHAIRPERSON SAVAGE DECLARED THE
MOTION CARRIED AND THE PIIBLIC HEARING OPEN AT 8:03 P.M.
Ms . McPherson stated the subj ect parcel is located generally in the
southeast corner of the City, east of University Avenue and south
of 53rd Avenue. The parcel is located at 5069 Clearview Street.
The property is zoned R-1, Single Family Dwelling.
Ms. McPherson stated the petitioner is proposing to add a 28 foot
by 16 foot addition to the rear of the dwelling unit. In order to
construct the dwelling unit, the petitioner needs a variance reduce
the side yard setback at the eastern-most corner of the lot from
10 feet to 9 feet due to the odd shape of the lot. It is not a
`~ � /�
APPEALS COMMI88ION MEETING� APRIL 6, 1993 PAGE 2
true rectangle as the north lot line was platted at less than a
ninety degree angle.
Ms. McPherson stated the petitioner could shorten the addition or
move it one foot in order to meet the setback; however, it would
make construction more difficult and expensive. The exterior walls
would not line up. The petitioner has explored the options and has
decided to build as proposed. The reduction in the side yard
setback of 1 foot would not adversely affect the structure property
directly to the north because there is approximately 20 feet
between the lot line and structure to the north.
Mr. Ludwig stated the reason he wants to put an addition on the
house is because he likes the neighborhood and likes living in
Fridley. He has explored the possibility of building a new house
which would mean moving out of the area, so they took the other
alternative, which is to put on an addition. He looked at
different options for the size of the addition and what the family.
would use the space for. There is a window on one side that limits
moving the addition further to the south. On the north side, he
will be making the master bedroom larger. If it was pulled in one
foot, it would look odd to have a jog in the wall. As it is, the
walls line up which looks more appealing. The neighbor to the
north is about 40 feet from the lot line and they have no plans for
additions. �ven if they did, they would not be close to 20 feet.
Based on those• reasons, he decided to move ahead with the variance.
Mr. Kuechle asked where the neighbor's house lines up with the
petitioner's house.
Mr. Ludwig stated that due to the radius of the street in front of
his house, if the neighbor were to put an addition on the back,
that addition would not be to the front of his house. Actually,
it is probably the very furthermost five feet of the addition that
would be infringing on the setback because of the angle.
Dr. Vos asked if the window Mr. Ludwig had mentioned was the window
south of the patio door.
Mr. Ludwig stated this is the window to the kitchen where the
kitchen table is located. This is where the family eats and they
like the view to the backyard. If he moved the addition further
to the south, he would have to enclose that window or put it inside
the addition.
Dr. Vos asked if the addition would enclose the patio door.
Mr. Ludwig stated, yes, it would.
Ms. Savage asked if the addition was because the family needed more
living space.
. •
,'"'� �'`
APPEALB COMMISSION MEETING APRIL 6, 1993 PAGE 3
Mr. Ludwig stated, yes. Their family is large and they would like
to have a family room on the back, enlarging the master bedroom,
and adding a bath off the master bedroom.
Dr. Vos stated there is a maximum lot coverage allowed and asked
if this was within the maximum.
Ms. McPherson stated the lot coverage is 24.44� including the
existing home, garage, and proposed addition. The lot is slightly
undersized and this is just within the limits.
Dr. Vos stated he assumed the roof line will be kept much the same.
Mr. Ludwig stated he is a carpenter and will be building the
addition. He takes pride in putting on additions so they do not
look like additions.
MOTION by Mr. Kuechle, seconded by Dr. Vos, to close the public
hearing.
IIPON A VOICE VOTE, ALL VOTING AYE, CHAIRPERSON SAVAGE DECLARED THE
MOTION CARRIED AND THE PIIBLIC HEARING CLOSED AT 8:10 P.M.
Mr. Kuechle stated he would recommend approval of the variance
request. T�ie odd shape of the lot creates some hardship. The
property is set back from the street so it will not have an adverse
impact in terms of visibility. The neighboring house is quite
distant. Even if he were to add on straight out, it looked as if
this encroachment would still Yie behind his house line so if the
neighbor added living space there would still be 20 feet between
houses. In terms of the spirit of the code, this meets the
requirements so he would recommend approval.
Ms. Savage agreed. There is plenty of space for the addition and
plenty of g'reen space. The spirit of the code is being met and
this is a unique situation because of the odd shape of the lot.
The petitioner has looked at other ways of doing this and this
appears to be the only reasonable way to put on the addition.
Dr. Vos stated what convinced him to recommend approval is the
distance between the neighbor and the north lot line. That house
is set so far away that a one foot encroachment would not matter.
The other option would be to make a smaller addition which would
not be worth the effort. With the odd shape of the lot, there is
difficulty when building out.to the back.
MOTION by Mr. Kuechle, seconded by Dr. Vos, to approve variance
request, VAR #93-03, by Thomas Ludwig, per Section
205.07.03.D.(2).(a) of the Fridley City Code, to reduce the side
yard setback from 10 feet to 9 feet to allow the construction of
