"Would like increased space for closet above garage."
B. ADMINISTRATIVE STAFF REVIEW:
Request
The petitioners are requesting that a variance be granted to
reduce the side yard setback from 10 feet to 6.3 feet on Lot
8, Block 3, Innsbruck North Addition, generally located at
1427 North Danube Road.
Site
Located on the property is a single family dwelling unit with
an attached two -car garage. The property is zoned R-1, Single
Family Dwelling, as are all surrounding properties.
Analysis
Section 205.07.03.D. (2). (a) requires a side yard setback of
10 feet between any living area and side property lines.
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 and to allow for
aesthetically pleasing open areas around residential
structures.
The petitioner is proposing to convert a portion of the upper
level of the garage into closet space for the adjacent master
bedroom. The truss design of the garage roof provides
additional vertical space for expansion and storage.
Skylights are located in the south face of the garage roof.
While the roof truss design does provide an opportunity to
create additional storage area, the original plan of the house
did not indicate storage space in the garage.
While the addition of storage space in the upper level of the
attached garage will not adversely impact the adjacent
property, the petitioner does have reasonable use of the
property at this time. The house to the west is constructed
at the 10 foot setback. The petitioner is not proposing to
expand the garage closer to the lot line.
Recommendation
As the petitioner has adequate use of the property, staff
recommends that the Appeals commission deny the variance
request.
Staff Report

SUBJECT: Variance Request, VAR #93-07, by Bradley and
Julie Dunham; 1427 North Danube Road N.E.
The Appeals Commission voted 4-1 to recommend approval of the
request to reduce the side yard setback from ten feet to 6.3 feet
to allow construction of a storage area above the garage of the
home. Because the storage area could be used as "living area", the
code dictates a 10 foot setback. The petitioner has reasonable use-
of the property without the variance; therefore, staff recommends
that the City Council deny the variance request as proposed by the
petitioner.

Mr. Kuechle stated tha the garage as proposed would not impede
the sight lines, but it would definitely give the feeling of some
crowding on the lot. He would recommend denial of the side corner

all surrounding parcels. The property directly to the north is
Totino Grace High School.
Ms. McPherson stated the petitioner is proposing to convert a
portion of the upper level of the existing two -car garage into
closet space for the adjacent master bedroom. Because the
conversion creates potential living space, the setback required by
Code is 10 feet. The existing west wall of the garage is at 6.3
feet.
Ms. McPherson stated that while the addition of storage space does
not adversely impact the adjacent properties, the petitioner does
have reasonable use of the property at this time. The house to the
west is also constructed at the 10 foot setback.
Ms. McPherson stated staff recommends that the Appeals Commission
recommend denial of this variance request as the petitioner does
have reasonable use of the property.
Ms. Smith stated that if the petitioner converted the upper level
of the garage into closet space and ended the closet at the 10 foot
setback, would the petitioner need a variance?
Ms. McPherson stated the petitioner would not need a variance if
the petitioner stops construction at the 10 foot setback.
Mr. Brad Dunham, 1427 North Danube Road, stated the hardship is he
needs more closet space. He would like to have the closet the full
width of the garage so that there would be a window in the closet
for light. There is storage over the garage now, and it would be
nice to access that storage from the inside and use it as closet
space. There will be no change to the exterior of the building.
MOTION by Dr. Vos, seconded by Ms. Smith, to close the public
hearing.
UPON A VOICE VOTE, ALL VOTING AYE, CHAIRPERSON SAVAGE DECLARED THE
MOTION CARRIED AND THE PUBLIC HEARING CLOSED AT 8:05 P.M.
Mr. Kuechle stated he cannot see any demonstrable hardship and
would recommend denial of the variance. The house already has a
significant size closet off the master bedroom, and the petitioner
has the opportunity to add a 12 ft. by 18 ft. closet within the
confines of the Code. Basically, only four feet would need to be
cut off, and this is not a significant amount. The benefit to the
petitioner by granting the variance is not in line with the impact
on the Code.
Ms. Smith agreed there is no hardship; however, there will not be
any exterior change to the structure. Even though there is no
hardship, she would have a difficult time recommending denial.
E., D
TO
APPEALS COMMISSION MEETING, MAY 18, 1993 PAGE 7
Ms. Beaulieu agreed with Ms. Smith. The petitioner has indicated
that by getting the extra four feet, he will be able to keep a
window in the closet. She did not see any negative impacts so she
would recommend approval.
Dr. Vos stated the petitioner does not have any hardship. Since
there will be no impact on the neighbor to the west, he would
recommend approval of the variance.
Ms. Savage agreed that the public purpose is being served as
nothing is changing the character of the existing structure. She
would also recommend approval.
MOTION by Ms. Smith, seconded by Ms. Beaulieu, to recommend to City
Council approval of variance request, VAR #93-07, by Bradley and
Julie Dunham, per Section 205.07.03.D. (2). (a) of the Fridley Zoning
Code, to reduce the side yard setback from 10 feet to 6.3 feet to
