Item #3
ADMINISTRATIVE STAFF REPORT
61.70 Kerry Lane N.E.
A. PUBLIC PURPOSE SERVED BY REQUIREMENT:
Sec�ion 205.053, (4,A), front yard setback of 35 feet
Public purpose served is that the front yard setback nestrictions
tend to keep structures back far enough to attain adequate open
space for aesthetic purp�s�s_,and also to make the space in front
of a garage door long enough to allow the parking of vehicles
without encroaching into public right of way.
B. STATED HARDSHIP:
The grade of the lot makes further setback require a very deep footing
and the cutting af two large oak trees.
C. ADM�NISTRA7IVE STAFF REVIEW:
This lot does fall away from the street, therefore, moving the
construction back on the lot would result in the lowering of
the rear footing. However, we feel a home can be designed that
would fit on the lot that would not enc'raach into any required
setbacks and would not be any further back on this lot with
respect to the rear line of the house. .
We feel that the Commission will have to hear the petitioner's
reasons for the request, and receive the comments of the neighbors
and then make a determination on the matter.

ADMINISTRATIVE STAFF REPORT
A. PUBLIC P'URPOSE SERVED BY REQUIREMENT: Section 205.053, �s A� Pront yard
setback of 35 feet.
Public purpose served is that the front yard setback restrictions tend to
keep structures back far enough to attain adequate open space for
aesthetic purposes� and also to make the space in front of a garage
door long enough to allow the parking of vehicles without encroachi.ng
into public right of w�y.
B. STATID HARDSHIP: The grade of the lot makes flirther setback reqnire a
very deep footing and the cutting of two large oak trees.
C. ADMINISTRATIVE STAF'F REVIEW: This lot does fall awey from the street.
� Therefore� moving the construction back on the lot would result in the
lowering of the rear footing. However, we �eel a home can be designed
that would fit on the lot that would not encroach into any required setbacka
and would not be any ftiirther back on this lot with respect to the rear
line of the house.
We feel that the Conunission will have to hear the petitioner�s reasona
for the request, and receive the comments of the neighbors and t,hen make
a determination on the matter.
Mr. 0'Bannon was at the meeting to present the request, along with Mr. R�t
Cadwell� 1293 Brighton Square, New Brighton, who would be the owner oP the houae.
Mr. 0'Bannon presented the plans:to the Board and explained that although the
house would be 20' from the lot line, there was a steep hill and it xas �rooded.
He showed where the large trees were situated on the lot and how the houae
would face� and explained there was also a 10' boulevard so the house would
actually be 30' from the street. He stated that he was asking for a 15'
variance because there was a steep grade in the rear, and as the house sat�
�he basement would be sitting out of the ground.
Mr. Barna noted that the property in back of these lots was park, so th�ere
would be no more lots behind these. Chairperson Schnabel noted it Waa 20'
back from the garage side� and actually 26� back from the living quarters.

� Chairperson Schnabel asked Mr. Cadwell how many cars he owned, and he replied
he had two and had no plans to hane more than that. He explained it was a
four-level home, and showed which level would be at the ground level. Mz'.
Cadwell stated he and his wife had been working with Mr. 0'Bannon since last
November and had discussed several different plans� but this was the one his
wife liked.
MOTION by Kemper� seconded by Gabel, to close the Public Hearing. Upoa a voiee
vote, all voting aye, the motion carried unanimously.
Mr. Barna stated he did not object to this encroachment into the front yard
as in the previous request. He explained that it was in line �ith the type
of structures in the area which were varying in their distance from the street�
and he felt this made for a very nice looking area. Mr. Kemper stated he
didn�t feel they were violating the intent of the ordinance with this proposed
variance.
Chairperson Schnabel said that Staff had felt there could be another h�e
designed that would fit on the lot with no vaxiances� but the petitioner had
stated they had worked with a number of different plans and this one fit
their needs the best. She stated that xhile there may be another plan
available that would meet code� it might not meet the petitioner's liring
requirements. Mrs. Gabel said she agreed that there were areas where a
little well-planned variety was a good thing.
� MOTION by Kemper, seconded by Gabel, that the Appeals Conanission approv�e the
request for variance. Upon a voice vote, all voting �ye� the motion carried
unanimously.
