VAR 05.85= CITY OF FRIDLEY. MINNESOTA Planning COMMISSION APPLICATION REVIEW 38 TO-. City of Fridley FROM; Clarence .and Mary T,su Krueger - 173 Pilot Avenue NE RE; APPLICATION FOR VARIANCE --EXPANDED GARAGE KENNETH L. and DIANE p. WARNER 4952 ROMAN RD. NE DATE; May 24, 1985 This is to inform you that we have no objection to the request for a variance for igen and Diane Warner to remodel and build an expanded garage. We realize the proposed expansion would place the west wall of the 1. garage closer to.our mutual lot boundary. However, since our house sits in from the line,, there would still be.ample space between the garage and our home In addition, we realize that the exp nded:storage this structure will provide for additional vehicles rather than the one car capacity of the present building will add to'the-security and appearance of the neighborhood. If you have any questions, you may contact us by phone at. 572-8764- or by writing to our home address. �s war I, i w I . C a i',.C' i S Vii. "� `-,'.: .. ilk`. {1 • J. i� �� - - Jolly w .. i �.

BETZOLD, SECONDED BY MR. PLEMEL, TO OPEN THE PUBLIC HEARING. UPON A VOICE VOTE, ALL VOTING AYE, VICE -CHAIRPERSON BARNA DECLARED THE PUBLIC HEARING OPEN AT 8:06 P.M. Vice -Chairperson Barna read the Administrative Staff Report: ADMINISTRATIVE STAFF REPORT 4952 Roman Road N.E. A. PUBLIC PURPOSE SERVED BY REOUIREMENT: Section 205.07.3D.3a requires a minimum rear yard setback of not less than 25 percent of the lot depth, with not less than 25 feet permitted or more than 40 feet required. Public purpose served by this require- ment is to provide rear yard space to be used for green areas which enhance the neighborhood. B. STATED HARDSHIP: "Present garage is 30 feet from lot line and is a single car garage, which barely has room for one vehicle plus bicycles, a lawn mower and minimum amount of lawn and garden supplies. Since we, as most families in the area, own two vehicles, this necessitates one vehicle to be left outside at all times. In addition, we have a trailer which must now be stored in the back corner of the lot and a boat which must be stored off the premises. The ability to'secure these items inside the qarage would add to the aesthetic value of the property as well as the security, not just to our property, but the neighborhood in general, since we are on the corner." C. ADMINISTRATIVE STAFF REVIEW: The only stipulation the staff has to recommend is that a hard surface driveway be provided for the new garage. Mr. Clark stated the Commission had a picture of the property looking from the side street where the new construction would take place. They also had an aerial photo showing the lot lines and the approximate location of the addition. He stated the petitioners have hired a home designer, and the petitioners have plans to show what they intend to do with the addition. APPEALS COMMISSION MEETING, JUNE 11, 1985 PAGE 8 It will be a two -car garage moved farther to the west than the existing garage and between that and the house there will be a porch with some passive solar glazing. He stated he felt this was a rather energetic project. He stated there will still be about 25-30 feet between this structure and the neighbor- ing structure. The petitioners explained their plans to the Commission. Ms. Warner stated, that the Commission had received a copy of a letter from their neighbors, Clarence and Mary Lou Krueger, 173 Pilot Ave. N.E., stating they had no objec- tion to the request for variance. MOTION BY MR. BETZOLD, SECONDED BY MR. PLEMEL, TO RECEIVE INTO THE RECORD THE LETTER DATED MAY 24, 1985, FROM CLARENCE AND MARY LOU KRUEGER, 173 PILOT AVE. N.E., STATING THEY HAD NO OBJECTION TO THE VARIANCE. UPON A VOICE VOTE, ALL VOTING AYE, VICE -CHAIRPERSON BARNA DECLARED THE MOTION CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY. MOTION BY MR. PLEMEL, SECONDED BY MR. BETZOLD, TO CLOSE THE PUBLIC HEARING. UPON A VOICE VOTE, ALL VOTING AYE, VICE-CHAIP.PF.RSON BARNA DECLARED THE PUBLIC HEARING CLOSED AT 8:17 P.M. Mr. Betzold stated most of the requests the Commission receives along the same lines as this request are for side yard setbacks instead of rear yard setbacks, and corner lots always cause a problem in that respect. Because of the way this house is located on the lot,it's somewhat of a unique situation. By grant- ing the variance, they would still be allowing plenty of room between this structure and the neighboring structure, and he felt that was what the Citv code was intended to do --to protect both the side yard and rear yard setbacks. He did not think this variance violated the intention of the city code, and he would be in favor of',granting the variance. Mr. Plemel agreed. He stated this could not be considered a detriment or visual pollution to the neighborhood. He thought this would be an attractive addition and would certainly solve the petitioners' storage problems. Mr. Barna stated the public purpose as stated was "to provide rear yard space to be used for green areas which enhance the neighborhood". By storing vehicles in the yard, it certainly did not enhance the green areas. This looked like a very nice structure that the petitioners planned on building, and he would be in favor of granting the variance. MOTION BY MR. BETZOLD, SECONDED BY MR. PLEMEL, TO APPROVE THE VARIANCE REQUEST PURSUANT TO CHAPTER 205 OF THE FRIDLEY CITY CODE, TO REDUCE THE REAR YARD SETBACK FROM 28.75 FEET TO 16 FEET 11 INCHES TO CONSTRUCT AN ADDITION TO AN ATTACHED GARAGE ON LOT 26, BLOCK 2, THE SAME BEING 4852 R019AN ROAD N.E., WITH THE STIPU- LATION THAT A HARD SURFACE DRIVEWAY HE PROVIDED FOR THE NEW GARAGE.
