MOTION by Gabel, seconded by Plemel, to waive reading the public hearing notice. Upon a voice vote, there being no nays, the motion carried unanimously. ..lir. Powers stated he wants to add another story onto his house, for more room, and the existing roof will be removed. He said he was told that the existing house hasn't had any variances approved on it and to put a 50 percent improvement into the structure, the variances need to be requested so no one can come back and say its illegal. Mrs. Gabel asked then if all of the variances requested are already existing. Mr. Powers answered that the house is existing, and all of the variances are to make it legal, so he can add on a second story. Chairman Drigans asked who lives on either side of -this property. Mr. Powers answered Mr. Jacobson lives to the south and Mr. Frakie lives to the north. Chairman Drigans asked if he had any plans on the addition. Mr. Powers said he did not as he was given to understand that this meeting was just to consider the variances. Chairman Drigans said the Board does like to see the plans, because on this request, the window placement could be such as to invade the neighbors privacy. Mrs. Gabel asked if there were any other two story structures in the area. Mr. Powers answered there are some double bungalows behind him that are two story. Chairman Drigans asked if there were any objections from the neighbors. Mr. Powers said he had talked to them and there were none. Mr. Frakie was in the audience and stated he had no objections. Chairman Drigans asked if he had received any estimates for the work involved. Mr. Powers stated the work will run between $8,000 and $10,000. He said he did have a firm committment on the total outside work which includes new siding and a brick front. -Mr. Mattson stated he had talked'to the Fire Prevention Chief about the distances between the structures and if there would be any fire problems created with a two story but in his opinion -they would not be creating any additional problems. The Minutes of the Board of Appeals Subcommittee Meeting of May 14, 1974 Page 4 Mr. Powers said the windows in the second story should not cause any problems because they would look out onto the roofs of the adjacent houses. He said the addition will only be about 4 feet higher than it is now. MOTION by Gabel, seconded by Plemel, to close the public hearing. Upon a voice vote, there being no nays, the motion carried. Mr. Plemel stated he would be inclined to go along with the variances as the home is already there and with the different style it will be an improvement to the area. He said it is a small lot and to build up seems the way to go. Mrs. Gabel agreed with Mr. Plemel. MOTION by Plemel, seconded -by Gabel, to recommend to Council, approval of the variances. Upon a voice vote, there being no nays, the motion carried unanimously. 3. A REQUEST FOR A VARIANCE OF SECTION 205.053, 4B, 5B, FRIDLEY CITY CODE, TO REDUCE THE REQUIRED SETBACK FOR A -GARAGE EXISTING ONTO AN ALLEY, FROM 25 FEET TO 16 FEET, TO ALLOW THE CONSTRUCTION OF A GARAGE TO BE LOCATED ON LOT 3, BLOCK 13, PLYMOUTH ADDITION, THE SAME BEING 4548 -2ND STREET N.E., FRIDLEY, MINNESOTA.

MOTION by Plemel, seconded by Gabel, to waive the public hearing notice reading. Upon a voice vote, there being no nays, the motion carried. Mr. Frakie stated he wants to build a garage off the alley and have it line up with Mr. Powers garage which is 16 feet off the alley. He added the alley only goes to Mr. Powers property and then deadends. Chairman Drigans stated 16 feet is not wide enough to park a car without being in the alley. Mr. Frakie said he could leave a space to park along side of the garage if need be but he said he now parks in_the front yard and he would like a garage to park the car in. Chairman Drigans asked if he would agree to install an automatic door opener on the garage as that would.encourage parking in the garage. Mr. Frakie said that that sounded reasonable. MOTION by Plemel, seconded by Gabel, to close the public hearing. Upon a voice vote, there -being no nays, the motion carried. Mrs. Gabel stated she could see no problem, if the car would be parked in the garage, as it will conform to the adjoining property and there were no objections from the neighbors. MOTION by Gabel, seconded by Plemel, to recommend to the Council; approval of the variance, with the stipulation that an automatic garage door opener be installed when the garage door is installed.
