A. PUBLIC PURPOSE SERVED BY REQUIREMENT:
Section 205.07.03.D.(2).(c).((3)) requires that any attached
or unattached accessory building which opens onto the side
street must be at least 25 feet from the property line of the
side street.
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 neighborhood to
reduce the building "line of sight" encroachment into the
neighbor's front yard.
B. STATED HARDSHIP:
"Would lose 10 feet of yard in back and patio slab would be
removed; all garages on street have same setback; would
increase cost 500."
C. ADMINISTRATIVE STAFF REVIEW:
Request
The petitioner is requesting that a variance be granted to
reduce the side yard setback on a corner lot for an accessory
use from 25 feet to 15 feet. This will allow the petitioner
to utilize an existing garage floor as a portion of the floor
of a new garage the petitioner proposes to construct. This
request is on Lot 1, Block 2, Osborne Manor Addition, the same
being 350 Osborne Road N.E.
Site
A single family dwelling unit and an existing 16 ft. x 22 ft.
detached garage is located on the site. The petitioner is
proposing to remove the existing garage in order to construct
a new garage which will be 26 ft. by 38 ft. The site is zoned
R-1, Single Family Dwelling, and there is adjacent R-1, Single
Family Dwelling, to the east, south, and west of the parcel.
The zoning to the north is C-2, General Business.
The City's code enforcement officer has sent several
noncompliance letters to the petitioner regarding the sale of
vehicles from the property not on a hard surface. The most
recent of these is dated December 12, 1989. Staff received
a call from an adjacent property owner who requested that the
garage not be used for auto repairs.
Staff Report
VAR #90-14, 250 Osborne Road N.E.
Page 3
Analysis
In analyzing the request, staff calculated the square footage
of the garage and the house. The square footage of the
proposed garage is 988 sq. ft., while the existing house is
972 sq. ft. Section 205.07.01.B,(4),(a) states: "A private
garage is the first accessory building, and it shall not
exceed 100 percent of the first floor area of the dwelling
unit, or a maximum of 1,000 sq. ft." As the proposed garage
is larger than the first floor area of the dwelling unit,
staff contacted the petitioner regarding this issue, and the
petitioner is aware that he will need to reduce the size of
the proposed garage.
In constructing the new garage, the petitioner proposes to
utilize the old garage floor in addition to pouring additional
concrete for the remaining garage floor. The petitioner has
stated that there is a patio area to the rear of the existing
garage which will need to be removed if the proposed garage
is located to meet the 25 foot setback.

the Fridley City Code to reduce the side yard setback on a
side street from 25 feet to 15 feet to allow the

hearing.
UPON A VOICE VOTE, ALL VOTING AYE, CHAIRPERSON SAVAGE DECLARED
THE MOTION CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY AND THE PUBLIC HEARING OPEN AT
8:22.
Ms. McPherson stated this property is located at the intersection
of 5th Street and Osborne Road in the general vicinity of Unity
Hospital. The property is zoned R-1, Single Family Dwelling, as
are adjacent parcels to the east, south, and west. The property
to the north is C-2, General Shopping.
Ms. McPherson stated the petitioner is proposing to remove the 16
ft. x 22 ft. garage currently on the site and to construct a new
26 ft. x 38 ft. garage. She stated she had contacted Mr. Carlson
6S
APPEALS COMMISSION MEETING JULY 24 1990 PAGE 7
to tell him that the proposed garage is greater than 100% of the
first floor area of the single family dwelling unit which is not
allowed by the Zoning Code. It is a simple matter to resolve
this issue. The petitioner just needs to shorten his garage to
37 feet.
Ms. McPherson stated the petitioner would like to utilize the
existing garage floor of the original garage for the new garage.
This will encroach into the setback and reduce it from 25 feet to
15 feet. The purpose of the setback requirement is to allow a
car to be parked in front of the garage without encroaching into
the City boulevard, thereby taking up potential snow storage
space or other uses for the boulevard.
Ms. McPherson stated the petitioner has two alternatives for the
location of the garage. He could move the garage to comply with
the Code requirement. If the petitioner wishes to preserve the
patio space in the rear yard, he could shift the garage to the
south up to within 5 feet of the rear property line as allowed by
Code and shift the garage to the west. This would preclude the
petitioner from utilizing the existing garage floor.
Ms. McPherson stated staff recommends the Appeals Commission
recommend denial of the variance request as the petitioner does
have two alternatives to meet the Code. However, if the Appeals
Commission recommends approval of the variance request, staff is
recommending the following two stipulations:
1. A hard surface driveway shall be provided by September
1, 1991.
2. There shall be no repair of automobiles, other than the
petitioner's, on site.
Mr..Robert Carlson stated he is in agreement with staff to reduce
the garage to 37 feet in order to comply with the Zoning Code
regarding the floor area of the garage.
Mr. Vernon Godeen, 375 - 76th Avenue N.E., stated he is directly
behind Mr. Carlson. He stated he is in favor of the variance
request. His garage is at the same setback as Mr. Carlson's
garage facing 5th Street. He does not want the garage in the
rear yard just 5 feet from the property line.
Dr. Vos stated he did not see much of a hardship when there seems
to be two viable alternatives.
Mr: Robert Carlson stated he did not want to put his garage west
and south to within 5 feet from the rear property line. In the
future he would like to extend the house to adjoin the garage.
The garage in that location would wreck the backyard, and his
neighbor is opposed to that location also. He also wants to
6T
PEALS COMMISSION MEETING JULY 24 1990 PAGE 8
utilize the existing garage floor slab. The proposed garage will
be at the same setback as other garages in the neighborhood, and
it will look better this way.
Dr. Vos asked about the noncompliance letters Mr. Carlson has
received in the past regarding the sale of vehicles from the
property not on a hard surface.
Mr. Carlson stated he is not selling cars on his property, and he
will not be doing any repair of automobiles on the property,
other than his own.
MOTION by Mr. Johnson, seconded by Dr. Vos, to close the public
hearing.
UPON A VOICE VOTE, ALL VOTING AYE, CHAIRPERSON SAVAGE DECLARED
THE MOTION CARRIED AND THE pUBLIC HEARING CLOSED AT 8:39 P.M.
Dr. Vos stated that since the existing garage is nonconforming,
technically the petitioner is enlarging the existing garage, even
though he is tearing the old one down and building a new one
using the existing slab. This is also a corner lot, and corner
lots are difficult to deal with. He stated he would be in favor
of granting the variance for the following reasons:
1. The hardship is because of the change in the setback
requirement since the house was built;
2. The petitioner already has a nonconforming garage, and
he wishes to use the existing garage slab.
Dr. Vos stated he did not see any advantage to the neighborhood
or to the neighbor to the south to move the garage within 5 feet
from the rear property line. It did not seem like the spirit of
the code to do that.
Ms. Savage and Mr. Johnson stated they agreed with the statements
made by Dr. Vos.
MOTION by Dr. Vos, seconded by Mr. Johnson, to recommend to City
Council approval of variance request, VAR #90-14. by Robert
Carlson, pursuant to Section 205.07.03.D.(2).(c).((3)) of the
Fridley City Code to reduce the side yard setback on a side
street from 25 feet to 15 feet to allow the construction of a
garage on Lot 1, Block 2, Osborne Manor, the same being 350
Osborne Road N.E., with the following stipulations:
1. A hard surface driveway shall be provided by September
