<br />City of Arden Hills <br />Planning Commission Meeting for October 7th, 2020 <br />P:\Planning\Planning Cases\2020\20-017 3493 Siems Court - Var\PC Packets Page 1 of 10 <br /> MEMORANDUM <br /> <br /> <br />DATE: October 7th, 2020 PC Agenda Item 3.A <br /> <br />TO: Planning Commission Chair and Commissioners <br /> <br />FROM: Joe Hartmann, Associate Planner <br /> <br />SUBJECT: Planning Case #20-017 – No Public Hearing Required <br /> Applicant: Kye Samuelson <br /> Property Location: 3493 Siems Court <br /> Request: Variance <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />Requested Action <br /> <br />Kye Samuelson (“Applicant”) has requested a Variance in order to construct an accessory structure <br />near the shoreline of 3493 Siems Court (“Subject Property”) within the Shore Impact Zone of Lake <br />Johanna.

Because the nonconformity was <br />discontinued for a period of more than one year, and no building permit has been applied for within <br />180 days of when the structure was removed, the previous structure cannot be rebuilt. The <br />Applicant requires a Variance approval for this new structure because it is larger than the previous <br />legal nonconforming structure and is proposed too close to the shore. <br /> <br />The Applicant is proposing to build the accessory structure to gain more storage space for their <br />belongings.
