PLEMEL, TO APPROVE THE MAY 15, 1984, APPEALS COMMISSION MINUTES AS WRITTEN. UPON A VOICE VOTE, ALL VOTING AYE, CHAIRPERSON GABEL DECLARED THE MOTION CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY. 1. REQUEST FOR VARIANCE PURSUANT TO CHAPTER 205 OF THE FRIDLEY CITY CODE TO—REDUCE-TH SIDE YARD SETBACK FROM 30 FEET TO 9 FEET TO ALLOW THE ONSTRUCTION —OFA 24 FOOT DETACHED GARAGE TO BE LOCATED ON LOT 1 BLOCK2 PRING LAKE PARK LAKESIDE D I I 'S RNE ROAD N.E' Request by Duane C. eisen, 1682 Osborne Road—N.E., Fridley, Mn. 55432) MOTION BY MR. BETZOLD, SECONDED BY MS. GEROU, TO OPEN THE PUBLIC HEARING. UPON A VOICE VOTE, ALL VOTING AYE, CHAIRPERSON GABEL DECLARED THE PUBLIC HEARING OPEN AT 7:32 P.M. Chairperson Gabel read the Administrative Staff Report: ADMINISTRATIVE STAFF REPORT 1682 Osborne Road N.E. A. PUBLIC PURPOSE SERVED BY REQUIREMENT: Section 205.07.3D.2c.2 requires an accessory building on a corner lot, within 25 feet of the common property line, to be set back a minimum of 30 feet from the side street property line. N APPEALS COMMISSION'MEETING, MAY 29, 1984 PAGE 2 Public purpose served by this requirement is to allow for off-street parking without encroaching on the public right of way and also the aesthetic consideration of the adjoining neighbor to the rear who has frontage along the side street, to reduce the building "line of sight" encroachment into the neighbor's front yard. B. STATED HARDSHIP: "If the garage is built at the required setbacks, it would be positioned right in the middle of the back yard and also with the doors being positioned on the north side of the building, entry would be extremely difficult." C. ADMINISTRATIVE STAFF REVIEW: The purpose in the setback requirement is to avoid placing a structure in the adjoining property's front yard and obstructing their view. In this case there is a rather large evergreen tree already obstructing the line of sight for the neighbor, therefore, if the Board approves this request, the only recommendation we have is that the overhead door to the garage be placed in the north wall as shown on the plan. Mr. Clark stated he had no additional comments. He stated the plot plan shown in the agenda showed where the garage would be positioned. The petitioner, Duane Weisen, stated if the garage had to be placed according to the setback requirements, it would be in the middle of his back yard and he would have very little back yard left over. He stated he did want to place the garage door to the north so he could have privacy from the road (Stinson Blvd.), and he would have room to park vehicles in the driveway, rather than on the street. Mr. Weisen stated the reason he needed the new larger garage was because his present garage is very small. He stated he has a truck and a van and neither one of them fit in the present garage. He stated he will remove the large overhead door from the present garage. His plans are to eventually turn the present garage into a family room. Mr. Weisen stated he has talked to his two neighbors to the south and the neighbor to the west. They expressed no objection to the construction of this garage. MOTION BY MS. •GEROU, SECONDED BY MR. BETZOLD, TO CLOSE THE PUBLIC BEARING. UPON A VOICE VOTE, ALL VOTING AYE, CHAIRPERSON GABEL DECLARED THE PUBLIC BEARING CLOSED AT 7:40 P.M. APPEALS COMMISSION MEETING, MAY 29, 1984 PAGE 3 MOTION BY MS. GEROU, SECONDED BY MR. PLEMEL, TO APPROVE THE REQUEST FOR VARIANCE PURSUANT TO CHAPTER 205 OF THE FRIDLEY CITY CODE, TO REDUCE THE SIDE YARD SETBACK FROM 30 FEET TO 9 FEET TO ALLOW THE CONSTRUCTION OF A 24 FOOT DETACHED GARAGE TO BE LOCATED ON LOT 1, BLOCK 2, SPRING LAKE PARK LAKESIDE ADDITION, THE SAME BEING 1682 OSBORNE ROAD N.E., WITH THE STIPULATION THAT THE OVERHEAD GARAGE DOOR BE PLACED IN THE NORTH WALL AS SHOWN IN THE PLANS. Mr. Plemel stated that since there appeared to be no neighborhood objection to this request, he had no problem with granting the variance. Ms. Gabel stated she could see no problem with the granting of the variance. She could understand that if the petitioner cannot use his present garage, it was logical for him to want to be able to store his vehicles inside. She stated she felt Mr. Weisen really did have a hardship, and this request seemed reasonable. Mr. Betzold agreed. He stated corner lots are always troublesome in trying to make everything fit within the codes, especially when the lot is in the corner of the whole city. UPON A VOICE VOTE, ALL VOTING AYE, CHAIRPERSON GABEL DECLARED THE MOTION CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY. 2. REQUEST FOR VARIANCE PURSUANT TO CHAPTER 205 OF THE FRIDLEY CITY CODE TO REDUCE SIDE YARD SETBACK FROM 10 FEET TO 7 FEET ON THE LIVING SIDE OF THE st by Martin E. Bestram, 420 - 67th Avenue ., Fridley, 14n. 2) MOTION BY MS. GEROU, SECONDED BY MR. BETZOLD, TO OPEN THE PUBLIC HEARING. UPON A VOICE VOTE, ALL VOTING AYE, CHAIRPERSON GABEL DECLARED THE PUBLIC HEARING OPEN AT 7:45 P.M. Chairperson Gabel read the Administrative Staff Report: ADMINISTRATIVE STAFF REPORT 420 - 67th Avenue N.E. A. PUBLIC PURPOSE SERVED BY REQUIREMENT: Section 205.07.3D.2a requires a minimum 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 exposure to conflagration of fire. It is also to allow for aesthetically pleasing open areas around residential structures. APPEALS COMMISSION MEETING, MAY 29. 1984 PAGE 4 B. STATED HARDSHIP: "Family size warrants more living area." C. ADMINISTRATIVE STAFF REVIEW: The garage to the east is.approximately 9 feet from the common lot line which results in a 16 foot distance between the structures. Therefore, no fire wall will be required if the Board approves this request. Mr. Clark stated the petitioner really had a two -fold hardship. One, of course, was the family size, and the other was the fact that he presently has a single car garage and has enough personal property to need a larger garage. The present garage cannot be enlarged because it is already about 7 ft. from the lot line. Mr. Bestram is going to build a 36 ft. x 26 ft. garage in the rear yard and then convert the existing garage into living area. The conversion of the existing garage is what caused the variance. Mr. Plemel asked where the driveway would be from the street to the proposed garage. Mr. Clark stated there is 10 ft. between the house and the westerly property line. Mr. Bestram has talked to the neighbor to the west who is willing to give permission to reduce the driveway setback from the side lot line from 3 ft. to 0 ft. He stated the plan showed the position of the prcposed garage in the rear yard. There will be enough room in the back yard to turn the vehicles around to drive out forward to the street. The petitioner, Martin Bestram, stated his neighbor to the west, Wayne Kwatera, 410 - 67th Ave. N.E., had written a letter stating he agreed to extend the driveway to the lot line. MOTION BY MR. BETZOLD, SECONDED BY MS. GEROU, TO RECEIVE THE LETTER FROM MR. KWATERA, DATED APRIL 29, 1984, STATING MR. BESTRAM COULD EXTEND HIS DRIVEWAY TO THE LOT LINE OF THEIR ADJOINING PROPERTIES. UPON A VOICE VOTE, ALL VOTING AYE, CHAIRPERSON GABEL DECLARED THE MOTION CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY. Mr. Bestram stated he'will remove the driveway and the overhead garage door to the existing garage. He stated he will be putting in a decorative brick driveway to the proposed garage. Mr. Betzold asked Mr. Bestram to explain his hardship. Mr. Bestram stated he still has two college age children living at home. There are four cars in the family. He stated he has a small basement, and there is a real need for more garage space and more living space. V i APPEALS COMMISSION MEETING, MAY 29, 1984 PAGE 5 MOTXON BY MR. PLEMEL, SECONDED BY MS. GEROU, TO CLOSE THE PUBLIC HEARING. UPON A VOICE VOTE, ALL VOTING AYE, CHAIRPERSON GABEL DECLARED THE PUBLIC HEARING CLOSED AT 7:55 P.M. Mr. Plemel stated he could understand the reasons for this request and since there was no neighborhood objection, he would be in favor of granting the variance. Ms. Gerou agreed. She stated remodeling was more affordable than moving. Ms. Gabel stated she understood the plight of the single car garage. She felt it was a valid hardship, especially when four cars have to be moved around. The neighbors are not objecting, and the one neighbor is willing to go more than out of his way to facilitate this and help make it happen. She had no problem with approving the variance. Mr. Betzold stated he, too, had no problem with granting the variance. MOTION BY MS. GEROU, SECONDED BY MR. PLEMEL, TO APPROVE THE REQUEST FOR VARIANCE PURSUANT TO CHAPTER 205 OF THE FRIDLEY CITY CODE TO REDUCE THE SIDE YARD SETBACK FROM 10 FEET TO 7 FEET ON THE LIVING SIDE OF THE HOUSE TO ALLOW THE CONVERSION OF A GARAGE TO LIVING AREA,LOCATED ON LOT 8, BLOCK 5, RICE CREEK TERRACE PLAT 3, THE SAME BEING 420 - 67TH AVENUE N.E.
