RE: Extension to VAR #00-23 (Marti Povliizki) M-01-127
INTRODUCTION
Marti Povlitzki, 369 Hugo Street, is seeking a one-year extension to variance #00-23.
Variance #00-2`� was issu�e o allow a building addition. The variance decreased
the required front yard setback from 35' to 31' and the side yard setback for living
area from 10' to 5'.
The Povliizkis are not sure they want to make this large investment in their property
until Anoka County removes or improves the vacant, boarded property it owns at the
comer of East River Road and Hugo Street.
Over the past year, City Staff and Mr. Povlitzki have had a number of discussions
with Mike Kelly of Anoka County's Highway Department. Neither the City nor Mr.
Povlitzki have received a concrete answer as to the County's plan for this home
acquired through ROW acquisition.
The Anoka County Board transferred ownership of this property from the Highway
Department to the County HRA just this past week. It will most likely be a number of
months before any plans are finalized for the reuse or demolition of this vacant,
boarded property.
PLANNING STAFF RECOMMENDATION
City Staff recommends granting a one-year extension for VAR #00-23.

To: Scott H'ickok — City of Fridley
From: Marti Povlitzki —
Subject: VARIANCE EXTENSION
Scott,
As a follow up to our recent telephone conversation , I am writing to request an
extension an for our variance.
In August 2000 the city of Fridley granted us a variance for the construction of a over the
gazage addition & the e�cpansion of the frrnrt entryway at 369 Hugo Street in Fridley.
At this time we are asking for the one year extension on the variance.
The main reason we are asking for the extension is ai this time we are not sure if we waat
to make this large investme� in our property. The reason for this indecision is the
aurem status of another property on our block. The property in question is located on
the coraer of Hugo Street & East River Road and has b�n vacated & Boarded up for
over one year. I am sure you can understand our�conce�n. UIItiI we see exactly what is
going to happen with this property we do nat believe it would be a wise investment at this
time to proce,ed we the addition on our property ( therefore, we are asking for the
elctension to the variance that was granted last August).
If you have any questions or you need more information please feel free to comact me.
Thank you.
Sincerely,
Marti Povlitzki
369 Hugo Street
Fridley, MN 55432
763-785-2012
P. S. — In re�ards to the vacant — boazded up property on the comer of East River Road &
Hugo Street, my question to the city of Fridley is this. Can anyone vacate & board their
property up in Fridley or only propefiy owned by the county ? Va.cated properties open
the door to trouble, vandalism ect. ..& bring other property values down ! I am tired of
looking at it on a daily basis.

2. PUBLIC HEARING: VARIANCE REQUEST. VAR #00-23. BY MARTI AND NINA
POVLITZKI:
Per Section 205.07.03.D of the Fridley Zoning code, to reduce the front yard
setback from 35 feet to 31 feet; and
Per Section 205.07.03.D.(2).(a) of the Fridley Zoning Code, to reduce the side
yard setback for living area from 10 feet to 5 feet;
To allow the construction of a home expansion on Lots 66, 67, and 68, Block A,
Riverview Heights Addition, generally located at 369 Hugo Street.
MOTION by Mr. Tynjala, seconded by Mr. Jones, to open the public hearing and waive
the reading.
UPON A VOICE VOTE, y4LL VOTING AYE, CHAIRPERSON KUECHLE DECLARED
THE MOTION CARRIED AND THE PUBLIC HEARING WAS OPENED AT 7:32 P.M.
Mr. Bolin stated that the petitioners would like to construct a new entryway into their
home which would align with the 31 foot setback of the existing garage. The 31 foot
setback was approved by through the variance process 1976. The petitioners would
like to construct additional living area above the existing attached garage. The property
is zoned R-1, single family, as are all of the surrounding properties. The lot was platted
in 1922. The home was built in 1967.
Mr. Bolin stated the petitioner's hardship summary states: We would like to enlarge the
entryway to our home and we are seeking a variance that would allow us to bring the
entryway part of our home even with the front of the garage. Curren#ly our garage is
five feet from our properfy line and we are seeking to put an addition above the garage."
Mr. Bolin stated that the proposed addition would not encroach onto the side yard
anymore than the existing garage. The petitioner would like to add onto the front of the
home in the entryway area to construct a new entryway lined up with the front of the
existing garage. This would allow the petitioner to move his front door out. Currently
the front door and service door to the garage open into each other and this would give
more room. The proposed expansion would mimic the brick and cedar already found on
the house.
Mr. Bolin stated staff has no recommendation on this request. Similar variances have
been granted in the past. A side yard variance was granted to 4.4 feet for living area at
150 Talmade Way (VAR #98-05), and a front yard variance was granted to 20 feet for a
new home and garage at 6330 Arthur Street (VAR #00-11). This garage location was
approved when the garage was constructed in 1976 reducing the front yard setback to
the 31 feet. The proposed entryway would be consistent with that.
APPEALS COMMISSION MEETING, AUGUST 23, 2000 PAGE 3` ° '
Dr. Vos asked if the house to the east is set ten feet back from the property line
because that is the living area.
Mr. Bolin stated that is correct.
Dr. Vos asked if this impacted the neighbor's ability to come in requesting a variance
asking for five feet as well.
Mr. Bolin stated that it would not. That neighbor would still have the same right to
request a variance.
Mr. Kuechle asked why the variance request was necessary on the front part.
Mr. Balin sta#ed tha� this year staff is loeking at redt�cing the required front yard setba�k
for porches and entryways down to 30 feet. A covered porch or vestibule tha� is not
enclosed can encroach into the front yard setback, but this would be enclosed.
Mr. Marti Povlitzki, petitioner, .stated that he did not have anything to add to stafPs
presentation.
Mr. Kuechle asked how the entryway would be constructed with the split level.
Mr. Povlitzki stated that if you go up the stairs from the entryway, you would go right to a
closet. That will be made into a hallway with 4 steps up into the addition on top of the
garage.
Mr. Kuechle stated that they are taking the garage roof off and that would be an eight
foot wall.
Mr. Povlitzki stated that they are thinking that rather than going the full eight feet in the
front they could possibly go with a_five or six foot wall so it does not look so high. The
back will probably be a little higher, but they do not want it to look awkward.
Dr. Vo� asked if he knew why the garage was set back 31 feet �ather than tt�� �5 fee�:�
Mr. Bolin stated that was to save a window that is located behind the garage.
Dr. Vos asked if the neighbor to the east was okay with this.
Mr. Povlitzki stated that the neighbor does not have any concerns. There are no
windows on the east side.

Dr. Vos stated that it seems like a reasonable request and is not encroaching any more
than the garage is already. The neighbor to the east is not concerned about it. Putting
the entry level with that garage seems to be reasonable. He would vote in favor of the
variance.
Ms. Jackson and Mr. Tynjala concurred with Dr. Vos.
Mr. Jones stated that he would vote in favor of the variance.
Mr. Kuechle stated that he, too, would vote in favor of the variance. The house to the
east is lower so it would tend to look less towering which mitigates it a little.
