<br />. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />ARDEN HILLS PLANNING COMMISSION - JULY 9, 2003 <br /> <br />5 <br /> <br />Chair Sand questioned if staff had heard from other neighbors. Mr. Hellegers stated he <br />received one phone call and the letter the Planning Commission received tonight in favor <br />of the project. <br /> <br />Commissioner Zimmerman questioned what precipitated the variance if the old garage <br />was already five-feet from the property line. <br /> <br />Mr. Hellegers stated this situation is different from the deck because the deck was <br />appurtenant to the principle structure. In this case, the applicant is removing more than <br />fifty percent of the structure and therefore requires a variance. <br /> <br />Commissioner Larson stated instead of working on variances the City should work on <br />recodifYing the Zoning Ordinance because of all of the side yard setbacks being granted. <br /> <br />Chair Sand questioned if the garage were attached to the house it would require a five- <br />foot setback, but because it is detached, it requires lO-feet. He stated he agrees with <br />Commissioner Larson's comments. <br /> <br />Mr. Hellegers stated staff has been looking at recodifYing the Zoning Ordinance for some <br />time because it has been a problem. Staff is currently reviewing it and it may be ready at <br />the next meeting. Action could be taken at the September meeting and then it would be <br />forwarded to the City Council for final approval. It would then take affect 30 days after <br />publication. <br /> <br />Commissioner Larson questioned if the City changed the code would the variance be <br />rescinded and off the books. <br /> <br />Commissioner Zimmerman explained that whatever the zoning ordinance is at the time of <br />the application and the variance would remain. <br /> <br />Chair Sand invited anyone for or against the variance to come forward and make <br />comment. <br /> <br />Patty Beaudry, 1860 Glenpaul Avenue, asked if the ordinance was changed would her <br />application fee be refunded and that she cannot move the garage farther to the rear <br />because of the cottonwood tree. <br /> <br />Mr. Parrish stated because the cost of mailings, publications and staff time have already <br />been expended, there would be no refund. <br /> <br />Chair Sand closed the public hearing at 8:15 p.m. <br /> <br />Commissioner Zimmerman moved, seconded by Commissioner Ricke, to recommend <br />approval of Planning Case #03-17, Patricia Beaudry, 1860 GlenpauI Avenue, for a five- <br />foot side yard interior setback variance. <br /> <br />The motion carried unanimously (5-0). <br />
