pattern to be consistent with existing development along Lake Josephine. Arden Hills Zoning <br />Code defines the lot front yard as the boundary abutting the roadway (i.e. Edgewater Avenue). <br />Mr. Mezzenga's application narrative is requesting a review of the parcels with the eastern <br />property line as the front yard and the property line abutting Edgewater Avenue considered a <br />side yard. To construct this proposal, the Applicant is seeking three variances based on <br />applicable zoning code definitions and minimum lot standards for lot width, lot depth, and rear <br />yard setback. <br />City Code Section 1325.04, defines the front lot line as "the boundary of a lot abutting a street" <br />and the rear lot line as "the lot line most nearly parallel to and most remote from the front lot <br />line." The Applicant is asking the City Council to consider the side of the lot abutting Edgewater <br />Avenue as the side lot line. Mr. Mezzenga has stated this rational for flexibility from this <br />definition would allow future residential dwellings to be built within the proposed building pads <br />without the need for additional setback variances. In his application, the Applicant has included <br />two site plans of the same Minor Subdivision in terms of lot dimensions. Site Plan A displays <br />the potential building pads adhering to setbacks based upon the definitions of "lot" for front, <br />side, and rear yards and with only the variances for lot width and lot depth. Site Plan B displays <br />the proposed building pads with an additional variance from rear yard setbacks to be granted. <br />The Applicant is seeking review and approval of Site Plan B. <br />Site Plan A — Based on Lot Definitions <br />Front Yard Front Yard <br />SSW ID <br />f <br />000 <br />.,�,� \-• Rear Yard ,� au. <br />,,NTANHENT LOT <br />FEu.ow-- <br />Side Yard <br />TRAM s Side Yarda� <br />_sue <br />Rear Yard <br />1 = --1 <br />Page 3 of 12 <br />
