<br /> Notice <br /> Notice was published in the Arden Hills/Shoreview Bulletin on Wednesday, March 16, 2005 and . <br /> notice was prepared by the City and mailed to residents within three-hundred fifty (350) feet of <br /> the subj ect property. <br /> Surrounding Properties <br /> Some of the surrounding properties in the area appear to be closer to the property lines that the <br /> current Front Yard or Side Yard Comer setbacks of 40 feet. After checking the GIS system, staff <br /> would estimate that 10 properties in the Edgewater/Lake/Shoreline neighborhood have closer <br /> front or side yard comer setbacks than the standard. Of the ten properties 3 of the properties <br /> have setbacks of 12 feet or less. The neighboring property to the west has a 16-side yard comer <br /> setback, and the three properties across Edgewater from the applicant's property have front or <br /> side yard comer setbacks of 30 feet, 35 feet, and 35 feet. <br /> According to City records there have been 2 variances granted for properties in the <br /> Edgewater/Lake/Shoreline neighborhood. These variances include a front setback variance of 10 <br /> feet for 1146 Edgewater Avenue (2001-31) and a 5-foot front setback variance for 3224 Lake <br /> Lane (1997-18). <br /> Building Permits <br /> Building permits were issued in 1955 for a room addition to the west side of the property and in <br /> 1969 for the garage. County records indicate that the house was constructed in 1938. . <br /> Site Overview <br /> The applicant has requested a 5-foot front yard setback variance and a lO-foot side yard comer <br /> setback to allow for the construction of a new house on the property at 1137 Edgewater Avenue. <br /> Currently the property has a small existing house and single-car garage on all of Lot 5 and part of <br /> Lot 4, of the Josephine Lakc Villas plat. The existing house is small, fairly close to the road, and <br /> has been used as a rental property. The proposed 2-story house would have a larger footprint and <br /> would be set back greater distances from the road that the existing house and garage. The <br /> applicant has stated that he intends to make this new house his permanent residence. <br /> This property was originally platted in the Lake Josephine Villas as I Y2 50 x 124.36 foot lots. It <br /> appears that the building was constructed on Lot 5 and the south 25 feet of Lot 4 was acquired <br /> later on. While the width of75 feet is preferable to the original 50-foot lot dimension, both the <br /> lot dimensions and lot area are still smaller than the current R-2 requirements. In addition, since <br /> this was originally platted as multiple properties and has since been joined together as one tax <br /> parcel, the property is not one legal lot. The property should be re-platted to be one lot; <br /> otherwise the structure is technically being constructed over a property line. It appears that a <br /> similar situation with an applicant (1146 Edgewater [across the street and one property west of <br /> \\EarthIPJanningIPJanning Cases\2005\05-J J Karja/ah'" Variance (PENDING)104-06-05 PC Report Karjalahti Vo.riance.doc . <br /> Page 2 of7 <br />
