1746 Dupre Road Î Enlargement of Non-Conforming Accessory Structure <br />The owner of the above stated parcel has petitioned the City for approval of a Variance to re-construct a <br />non-conforming accessory structure on the parcel of property. The existing structure is dilapidated, <br />constructed in the side yard and constructed prior to current regulations requiring it to be located in the rear <br />yard.

Once signed into law, <br />staff will move quickly to formulate recommendations on how to exercise whatever discretion we may have. <br /> <br />Amazon Sign Variance <br />With a unanimous recommendation from the Planning and Zoning Commission, the City Council approved <br />a variance for additional way-finding signs for the Amazon campus. <br /> <br />CENTERVILLE CARES <br />Anoka County Î Homeowner/Homebuyer Programs <br />The home rehabilitation loan programs help income-qualified <br />residents with health, safety, accessibility and some energy concerns on <br />their primary home.
