MOTION BY MR. PLEMEL, SECONDED BY MR. BARNA, TO OPEN THE PUBLIC HEARING.
UP017 A VOICE VOTE, ALL VOTING AYE, CHAIRPERSON GABEL DECLARED THE PUBLIC HEARING
OPEN AT 7:36 P.M.
Mr. Clark stated this is a repeat request. The first request occurred in 1979
and was also for a 4-plex. At that time, the only variance requested was to
reduce the front ,yard setback from 35 ft. to 30 ft. The variance was approved
in 1979, but since it has been more than a year since that approval , the variance
has expired.

APPEALS COMMISSION MEETING, JUNE 29, 1982 PAGE 2
Ms. Gabel read the Administrative Staff Report into the record:
AIXIINISTRATIVE STAFF REPORT
50ij-02-5 - 6 4th Street N.E.
A. PUBLIC PURPOSE SERVED BY REQUIREM MIT:
Section 205.073, 42"1, requires a minimum front yard setback of 35 feet
in a riultip le c.rellincf zoning district.
Public E-,.irLJose :.served by this requirement is to allo7 for off-street
parking without encroaching on the Imblic right-of-way. Also for
aesthetic consideration to reduce the building "line of sight"
encroachment into the neighbor's front yard.
Section 2.75.073, 4, I,3, requires a minimum side yard of 35 feet where
a side yard abuts a street of a corner lot. .'
Public purrose served by this requirement is to maintain a higher
degree of traffic visibility and to reduce the "line of sight" encroachment
into the neigh}Jor's front yard.
B. STATED HARDSHIP:
"The site is lone and narrow and is bordered on three sides by streets. ,
Ve cannot meet the side yard requirement. With approval of the
variance, we will be able to utilise this property to the highest and
best use by constructing four 3-bedroom units. There is a shortage of
3 bedroom units (rentals) in the area.
C. ADP4INISTP,ATIVE STAFF REVIR-7:
A -front � cvariance iancc0f 30 feet was a� Jrov
ed on this
propertyrtY in
«ugust, i97' will , a request for to%nzhouses was pKoposed. The reason
given for approval \',, <s to have the building line up with the d,7elling
to the north of t_nis )roperty.
This lot is borCiered on three sides by streets rniaking it difficult to
place a structure on it without encroaching into the required
setbacks. The structure would have to be reduced in size to meet the Code.
If the Corrunission recoi&iends approval of these variances, -the staff
recor.iends that a lariCscaping plan be submitted showing screening on
the north wid gnat ten off-street parking stalls be provided.

APPEALS COMMISSION MEETING, JUNE 29, 1982 PAGE 3
Mr. Dick Wiggin, Shakopee, Mn. , stated that since this was approved with a
variance in 1979, they have attempted to draw the building plans on the same
basis. He stated he has been told that the City of Fridley does not have zero .
lot lines for 4-unit buildings.
Ms. Gabel stated that was correct; however, the City is in the process right now
of drawing up a townhome or that type of zoning, but they don't have it at this
time.
Mr. Wiggin stated he has been developing land and building in the Twin Cities,
mostly in Richfield, Bloomington, Burnsville, and for the last 15 years in
Shakopee. He stated he was on an ad hoc committee that helped design a zero lot
line. He thought it was going to be the coming thing, because the big problem
the last 5-10 years is there have been very few apartment buildings built because
there are only 4-unit mortgages. He stated the money has somewhat determined the
building.
Mr. Wiggin stated this will be a 4-unit building, 3 bedrooms in each unit, with
tuck-under garages. Each unit will have a 2-car garage with 2 parking stalls in
front of the garage, for a total of 16 parking stalls.
Mr. & Mrs. Andrew Veres submitted a petition to the Appeals Commission.
Ms. Gabel read the petition into the record:
"Petition to stop the consideration of a variance request pursuant
to Chapter 205 of the Fridley City Code to reduce the front yard
setback on a corner lot from the required 35 feet to 30 feet, and
the sideyard setback on a corner lot from the required 35 feet to
16.25 feet, at 5600 - 4th St. N.E. , Fridley"
Ms. Gabel stated there were two identical petitions--one with four signatures
and one with two signatures.
MOTION BY MR.PLEMEL, SECONDED BY MR. BARNA, TO RECEIVE THE PETITION.
UPON A VOICE VOTE, ALL VOTING AYE, CHAIRPERSON GABEL DECLARED THE MOTION CARRIED
UNANIMOUSLY.
Mr. Veres stated it was the neighbors' concern that all the houses, including
the 4-plex be even, so they did not want the variance approved for the front
yard setback from 35 feet to 30 feet.
Ms. Gabel explained that the proposal is to leave the 4-plex in line with the
houses, and that was the reason for the variance to 30 ft. All the houses along
the block are 30 ft. from the street, and the 4-plex would then be consistent
with the houses.
4G
APPEALS COMMISSION MEETING, JUNE 29, 1982 PAGE 4
Mrs. Veres stated the neighbors would have no objection to the building as long
as it was even with the houses, as that was their only major concern. She stated
they are in favor of the building because the area as it is now is an eyesore.
MOTION BY MR. BARNA, SECONDED BY MR. PLEMEL, TO CLOSE THE PUBLIC HEARING.
UPON A VOICE VOTE, ALL VOTING AYE, CHAIRPERSON GABEL DECLARED THE PUBLIC HEARING
CLOSED AT 8:05 P.M.
Mr. Plemel stated he would be in favor of granting the variances. He stated he
thought the building would be a nice addition to the area. He did not think the
variance to the south would cause any visibility problem as it is lined up with
the building across the street.
Mr. Barna stated both variances seem to be what the neighbors want, and he did
not see any objection from the neighbors.
MOTION BY MR. BARNA, SECONDED BY MR. PLEMEL, TO RECOMMEND TO CITY COUNCIL, THROUGH
PLANNING COMMISSION, TO GRANT THE VARIANCE TO REDUCE THE FRONT YARD SETBACK ON A
CORNER LOT FROM THE REQUIRED 35 FEET TO 30 FEET, AND THE SIDE YARD SETBACK ON A
CORNER LOT FROM THE REQUIRED 35 FEET TO 16.25 FEET, TO ALLOW THE CONSTRUCTION OF
A 30 BY 88 FOOT FOUR FAMILY DWELLING, LOCATED ON LOTS 13, 14, AND 15, BLOCK 4,
HAMILTON'S ADDITION TO MECHANICSVILLE, THE SAME BEING 5600 - 4TH STREET N.E.,
FRIDLEY, WITH THE STIPULATION THAT THE PETITIONER WORK WITH THE CITY BUILDING
DEPARTMENT ON THE LANDSCAPE PLAN, SCREENING OF REFUSE CONTAINERS, AND THAT OUTSIDE
STALLS BE MARKED SO THEY ARE DEFINED.
Mr. Wiggin stated he really does not need the variance to reduce the side yard
setback from 35 ft. to 16.25 ft. on the south side unless the Commission wanted
it that way.
Mr. Clark stated they should say it should line up with the building to the east,
but cannot be bore than 16.25 ft. from the south property line.
MOTION TO AMEND BY MR. BARNA, SECONDED BY MR. PLEMEL, TO RECOMMEND TO CITY COUNCIL,
THROUGH PLANNING COMMISSION, TO GRANT THE VARIANCE TO REDUCE THE FRONT YARD SETBACK
ON A CORNER LOT FROM THE REQUIRED 35 FEET TO 30 FEET, AND THE SIDE YARD SETBACK
TO BE IN ALIGNMENT WITH THE STRUCTURE TO THE EAST ON THE OPPOSITE SIDE OF 4TH STREET,
BUT NOT CLOSER THAN 16.25 FEET TO THE SOUTH PROPERTY LINE, TO ALLOW THE CONSTRUCTION
OF A 30 BY 88 FOOT FOUR FAMILY DWELLING, LOCATED ON LOTS 13, 14, AND 15, BLOCK 4,
HAMILTON'S ADDITION TO MECHANICSVILLE, THE SAME BEING 5600 4TH STREET N.E., FRIDLEY,
WITH THE STIPULATION THAT THE PETITIONER WORK WITH THE CITY BUILDING DEPARNMENT ON
THE LANDSCAPE PLAN, SCREENING OF REFUSE CONTAINERS, AND THAT OUTSIDE STALLS BE
MARKED SO THEY ARE DEFINED.

UNANIMOUSLY.

fisting garage being converted into living space and requested that both
gaes .be used as garage space. The petitioner had stated he had no problem
with lowing the existing garage to remain a garage. This then required his
coming for a special use permit, because the code doesn't allow second
accessory ructures of 200 sq. ft. without a special use permit.
Mr. Boardman s ed the petitioner is requesting a special use permit for the
construction of a w garage and to allow the existing garage to remain a garage.
He stated Staff has problems with this request. He felt it was appropriate
since this house is at e end of the street and the setback variance in front
was granted by the Appea Commission.
The petitioner, Mr. James Cro stated this was the only location they had on
the lot to build an additional age, and they really need the storage space.
The only alternative would be to se their vehicles in the yard or on the street.

portion of unused ri 4t_-Df_-vray adjacent to the west side of Lots 13, 14,
and 15, Block 4, Hamilton's Addition to Mechanicsville, (highway turn-back) ,
to allow the construction of a 4-plex, the same being 5600 - 4th Street N.E.
(Appeals Commission recommended approval of variance on June 29, 1982)
Mr. Boardman stated this property is located on 4th Street where the service
drive connects into 57th Ave. It is a corner property. He stated the State
originally had control of the right-of-way all along the service drive, but
the State recently turned all that property over to the City of Fridley. The
City of Fridley does not need the property so at the request of the petitioner,
Staff is recommending this property be turned over to the property owner, but
that the City maintain a 10 ft. boulevard easement.

1 . PUBLIC HEARING: CONSIDERATION OF A REQUEST FOR A SPECIAL USE PERMIT,
SP 82-08, BY JAMES H. CROSS: Per Section 2_05_.0_5T,__2_,_ A, of the Fridley
ity Code, to allow the construction of a second accessory building, a
22' x 24' attached garage on Lot 4, Block 1 , Irene Henry Addition, the
same being 6271 Jackson Street N.E. (Variance granted 6/15/82, subject to

SP #82-08 BY JAMES H. CROSS.
UPON A VOICE VOTE, ALL VOTING AYE, VICE-CHAIRPERSON OQUIST DECLARED THE PUBLIC
HEARING OPEN AT 7:33 P.M.
Mr. Boardman stated this lot is the last lot on Jackson Street. It is a dead-end
street with a cul-de-sac. He stated the request is for the addition of a second
garage. The request to the Appeals Commission on June 15 was to construct the
new garage and turn the existing garage into a living area which would require a
variance from 10 feet to 5 feet from the north property line, because thg existing
garage as it is now is 5 feet off the property line. At that time, the ne�ghbors
were not opposed to the construction of the new garage, but were opposed to he

PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING, JULY 14, 1982 PAGE 3
Mr. Boardman stated the proposal is for a 2-level , 4-plex with tuck-under
garages. This proposal went to the Appeals Commission on June 29 for approval
of two variances--a front yard setback from 35 ft. -o 30 ft. and a sideyard
setback from 35 ft. to 25 ft. Both variances were approved by the Appeals
Commission and are bang submitted to City Council .
Mr. Boardman stated it was Staff's recommendation to approve the vacation and
turn the property back to the property owner to make a more usable lot.
Ms. Gabel stated the Appeals Commission has approved variances before for the
development of this piece of property; but because of financing falling through
and other things happening, no development has taken place. She felt that if
there is now someone who can do something with that lot, it would be a good thing
for the City.
MOTION BY MR. SVANDA, SECONDED BY MR. SABA, TO RECOMMEND TO CITY COUNCIL APPROVAL
OF VACATION REQUEST, SAV #82-02, BY S & R INVESTMENT COMPANY TO VACATE THAT
PORTION OF UNUSED RIGHT-OF-WAY ADJACENT TO THE WEST SIDE OF LOTS 13, 14, AND
15, BLOCK 4, HAMILTON'S ADDITION TO MECHANICSVILLE, (HIGHWAY TURN-BACK) , TO
ALLOW THE CONSTRUCTION OF A 4-PLEX, THE SAME BEING 5600 - 4TH STREET N.E.
(APPEALS COMMISSION RECOMMENDED APPROVAL OF VARIANCE ON JUNE 291 1982) rWXTH THE
STIPULATION THAT THE CITY RETAIN A 10 FOOT BOULEVARD EASEMENT.
UPON A VOICE VOTE, ALL VOTING AYE, VICE-CHAIRPERSON OQUIST DECLARED THE MOTION
CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY.
Mr. Boardman stated this request will go to City Council on August 16.
3 OT SPLIT REQUEST: L.S. #82-04, BY A. OSCAR CARLSON: Split off the
er5y 88 feet of the vacated alley adjacent to Lots 20, 21 , and 22,
Block-7,,0naway, and add it to the Easterly 8 feet of vacated alley adjacent
to Lots `% 6, and 7, Block 7, Onaway, the same being 7753 Beech Street and
7752-56 Elfin Street N.E.
Mr. boardman st%ted there was quito' history as to how these two buildings were
connected. He stated the proposal is to purchase the building that has been
spread out across b�p alley and ,covers two lot areas, one off Beech Street and
one off Elm Street, 'a.nd then Xplit the building, turning over a portion of the
building on Lots 21 a 22o the building on Lots 6 and 7.
Mr. Boardman stated wher the problem comes in is that because they are putting
a new lot line in and ther was never a zero lot line variance for a building
setback to a property line which was not necessary at that time, because the
property in between was owne by the building owner) , the petitioner is also
going to have to request a variance. Because of scheduling, there is somewhat
of a problem with the variance"procedure and it would be mid-September by the time
it gets to City Council . The reason for this is the meetings of the Appeals
Commission and Planning Commission do not jive in order to get it to the City
Council by the end of August. If the Planning Commission approves this lot* spl.it,
he would suggest they recommend the lot split request be conditioned upon the
variance approval by the Appeals Commission.
PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING, JULY 14, 1982 PAGE 4
. Oquist asked why the two walls couldn't be knocked out and the area turned
ba into an alley.
Mr. m Benson stated he has been involved back to the time these buildings were
conned ed and is now representing Keith Boulais and A. Oscar Carlson, who are
the new` wners. He Stated that when the two buildings were connected together,
the walls'"ere constructed of concrete masonry, the floors are poured concrete
floors, so\pit is fully improved real estate. He stated that when you are inside
the building and passing from one building to another, you hardly realize the
buildings werg ever separated. He stated it would be too expensive to tear up
the concrete flloor, concrete walls, and roof, so the logic is just to detach the
building and br (ig it back and concrete the wall up, making virtually two separate
buildings again. `,.This would create a zero lot line situation, which is common in
the Onaway District, He stated the two buildings were originally built separately,
so everything is separate--parking lots, utilities, water mains, etc.
MOTION BY MR. SABA, SE ONDED BY MR. KONDRICK, TO RECOMMEND TO CITY COUNCIL APPROVAL
OF LOT SPLIT REQUEST, L . 082-04, BY A. OSCAR CARLSON, TO SPLIT OFF THE WESTERLY
8 FEET OF THE VACATED AL�'Y ADJACENT TO LOTS 20, 21, and 22, BLOCK 7, ONAWAY,
AND ADD IT TO THE EASTERLY 8 FEET OF VACATED ALLEY ADJACENT TO LOTS 5, 6, AND
7, BLOCK 7, ONAWAY, THE SAME BEING 7753 BEECH STREET AND 7752-56 ELM STREET N.E.,
BASED UPON THE APPROVAL OF THE ZERO LOT LINE VARIANCE BY THE APPEALS COMMISSION.
UPON A VOICE VOTE, ALL VOTING AYE, VICE-CHAIRPERSON OQUIST DECLARED THE MOTION
CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY.
Mr. Boardman stated the zero lot line variance request will go to the Appeals
Commission on Aug. 10, and then both the variance and the lot split request
will go to City Council on Aug. 16.
