<br />ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL - MARCH 13, 2000 <br /> <br />D"""A'. FT <br />. . "L fj /"f.' -' - - <br />t{~' ., <br />~"l. .. <br /> <br />8 <br /> <br />Ms. Marguerite Jaster stated she lives 3 houses from the applicant on Lake Johanna Boulevard, <br />and added her support to the request. She added the plans would break up the verticality of the _ <br />home. .. <br /> <br />Mayor Probst expressed his support of increasing the width of the deck at the home's southeast <br />comer. Councilmember Aplikowski expressed approval of a triangular shaped configuration at <br />the south of the home, but stated she is open to allowing approval of a variance. <br /> <br />Mr. Mertensotto agreed to review the site plan and decide upon some options for the north side <br />of the home. Mayor Probst stated that City staff could work with him on alternative plans. <br /> <br />Councilmember Grant moved, seconded by Councilmember Aplikowski to table <br />Planning Case #00-14, comer side yard variance until the March 27, 2000 Regular <br />Council meeting. The motion carried unanimously (5-0). <br /> <br />4. Case #00-15, Robert Aleksander, Rear Yard Variance <br /> <br />Ms. Randall explained that the applicant was requesting approval of a rear yard setback variance <br />(23 feet 6 inches proposed when 30 feet is required) for a room and deck addition on a single- <br />family lot zoned R-l. <br /> <br />The proposed porch addition is a 500 square foot addition running along the backside of the <br />home. The home was constructed in 1988 with three patio doors facing out the back of the <br />home. When the home was built, the Zoning Ordinance required a 30-foot rear yard setback, <br />which is the same as required today. The home was placed 35 feet 6 inches from the rear <br />properly line. <br /> <br />e <br /> <br />The applicant has stated that due to the interior configuration and location of the existing patio <br />doors, this seems the most feasible location for a deck and room addition. The home currently <br />meets all setback requirements. The lot is very wide, allowing for expansion on either side of the <br />home. The rear of the home borders land owned by the U.S. Fish and WildFfe Service, which <br />surrounds Round Lake. The area between the ordinary high water mark and the rear properly <br />line is about 200 feet. Zoning Ordinance Section VI, C, d, requires a 75-foot setback from the <br />ordinary high water mark. The proposed porch and deck meet the 75-foot setback requirement. <br /> <br />Zoning Ordinance Section VI, C, 2, a, allows features which are part of the principal structure, <br />including but not limited to eaves, cantilevered areas, cornices, canopies, awnings, decks, <br />balconies, steps, ramps, fire escapes, and chimneys. These may extend three feet into the <br />required front, side, and rear setbacks but in no case shall the setback to these encroachments be <br />less than six feet. This would allow for an 8 foot 6 inch to an 11 foot 8 inch deck addition across <br />the back without needing a variance. A room addition or porch does not qualify for the three- <br />foot exception. <br /> <br />With regard to circumstances unique to the property, staff found the properly borders properly _ <br />owned by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service for protection of Round Lake. There is over 200 .. <br />feet between the deck and porch area and the ordinary high water mark. The variance can be <br />
