City of Centerville <br />Council Meeting Minutes <br />July 14, 2021 <br /> <br />Administrator Statz stated that he believes that the three criteria have been met to grant a variance. <br />(Use is reasonable, keeping with the character of the neighborhood and not caused by the <br />homeowner.) <br /> <br />Mr. Matt Beck, 1313 Mound Trail, stated that the current accessory structure is a one-car garage <br />but they desire to replace it with a structure two (2) times larger. Discussion ensued regarding the <br />construction of the new home, its placement, regulations remain the same for all citizens and ability <br />to issue variances. <br /> <br />Motion by Acting Mayor Koski, seconded by Council Member King to Approve a Variance <br />for 1313 Mound Trail as Presented along with Findings of Fact Contained in the Staff Memo <br />Which Allows the Accessory Structure in the Front Yard Respecting the 35’ Setback and No <br />Overhang Structure Allowed. <br /> <br />Discussion ensued regarding the 35’ setback. Administrator Statz stated that the 35’ setback is <br />from the road right-of-way and that this is a lake lot and the situation is unique, as most owners <br />desire to be close to the lake versus the roadway. <br /> <br />Acting Mayor Koski and Council Members King and Mosher voted in favor. Motion <br />carried. <br /> <br /> X. COUNCIL/ADMINISTRATOR ANNOUNCEMENTS <br /> <br />1.
