0
A., PUBLIC PURPOSE SERVED BY REQUIREMENT:
Section 205.053, 4A, requires a front yard setback of not less than
35 feet.
Public purpose served by this requirement is to allow for off-street
parking without encroaching onto the public right of way and also for
aesthetic consideration to reduce the "building line of sight"
encroachment into the neighbor's front yard.
B. STATED HARDSHIP:
"We need additional room for the family as the children get older and
require more space."
C. ADMINISTRATIVE STAFF REVIEW:
This house is located on the corner of 45th Avenue and 2nd Street with
the house facing 45th Avenue. Technically the front yard is on 2nd
Street as it is the slioKtest side of the lot. The garage is exiting onto '
45th Avenue so there would be no encroachment into the boul(heard area
for parking with this addition. The house to the north of this lot is
facing 2nd Street and is set back the required 35 feet but there is
approximately 38 feet between the addition and this structure to avoid
reducing the "line of sight".

and it would be a mice buildirl<;, better than what is there now.
Mr. Barna stated that he felt it would be an improvement on the site and would
improve the existing, traffic situation.
Mr. Kemper stated thzat his on -1,y concern was the variance they were acting on
wan not the one on the public notice. Ile had no objection to acting on it, but
felt Council should be aware that the variance was different and would like
Mr. Herrick to give an opinion on that at the Council meeting.
Ms. Gabel stated she had no problem and felt it would be an improvement. She felt
it would be better if they knew just what kind of tenant there would be, but that
was not possible at this point.
MOTION by Mr. Kemper, seconded by Mr. Barna, to recommend to Council approval
of the variances as follows: 1)reduce the building setback from the street right-
of_iray from 35 feet to 15 feet, 2) reduce the parking setback from street right-
of-way from 20 feet to 15 feet from the north property line, 3) to reduce the
parking setback from the street right-of-way from 20 feet to 5 feet on the west
property line, and 4) to reduce the parking setback from the street right-of-way
from 20 feet to 15 feet on the south property line, to allow the construction
of an office building at 5701 University Avenue I1E. Council should note that
the 4th variance was approved differently than was indicated in the Public Notice.
The Public Notice indicated a reduction of the parking setback from 20'feet to
17 feet. Council and Mr. Iierrick should act on that change.

the house facing 45th Avenue. Technically the front yard is on 2nd

for* I irking with this addition. 11lie house to the north of this lot is
facing 2nd Street and is set back the required 35 feet but there is
appro:";imatcly 38 feet between the .addition and this structure to avoid
reducing the "line of sight".
Pyr. Idede€;card gave the Commissioners a copy of his plans. He stated that he
faced 45th Avenue and would like a 10 foot variance which would make it 25 feet
off 2nd Street rather than 35 feet.
Ms.Gabel stated that even though Vxo Nedegaard faces 45th,Avenue, 2nd Street
was considered the front yard because it is the narrow part of the lot. She
noted that it was a nice house and well kept.
Mr. Clark stated the house across the street had done the same thing.
Ms. Gabel asked if the hedges were on his property?
Mr. Nede-acrd. stated that some of the hedges sat on his property: but they belonged

Mr. stated he was, crpardini; the oize of two of the bedrooms and adding
one.
11s. Gabel -asked if he would have a full basement under the addition?
Mr. Nodegr,ard : tate 3 he would.

in the ncit;huor:, yard, so they would not be able to see the addition at all.
So, in terms of visu=al encroachment, there would be none.
tz. Plemel asked if the other houses to the north were at 35 feet?
Mr. ITedeta,ard stated that the next two were 35 feet, but from there they were
staggered.
N.s. Gabel noted that there would be no problem at the corner with the sight line.
She asked about the roof lire and the siding.
Mr. Nedegaard stated that he would be doing the construction himself and the roof
line would tie in with all new roofing and the siding would be the same.

to notify the neighbors.
