City of Arden Hills Planning Commission Meeting for March 9, 2016 P:\Planning\Planning Cases\2016\PC 16-005 - 3382 Lake Johanna Blvd - Variance\Memos_Reports_16-005 Page 8 of 9 The design of the addition would minimize the expansion of existing and creation of new nonconforming conditions because most of the additional livable space will be constructed above the garage rather than expanding the footprint of the dwelling. The proposed addition and planned improvements to the siding, roof, and decks would be consistent and compatible with other single family homes in the area and would enhance the overall appearance of the structure. If the Planning Commission recommends approval of this variance, staff recommends the following four conditions: 1. The project shall be completed in accordance with the plans submitted as amended by the conditions of approval. Any significant changes to these plans, as determined by the City Planner, shall require review and approval by the Planning Commission and City Council. 2. The property owner shall obtain a Grading and Erosion Control Permit from the City before the building permit is issued. 3. A building permit shall be required prior to commencement of construction. 4. The addition shall match the color and architectural style of the rest of the principal structure. 5. The structure shall conform to all other regulations in the City Code. Proposed Motion Language 1.
