<br />Date: February 17, 2004 <br /> <br />From: Robert Roslansky <br />7068 Eagle Trl. <br />CentervilIe, MN 55038 <br /> <br />To: Planning and Zoning <br />City of CentervilIe <br />Centerville City Hall <br />CenterviIle, MN 55038 <br /> <br />Re: Temporary storage unit on driveway <br /> <br />To whom it may concern, <br /> <br />I recently received a letter from the City of Centerville regarding an alleged violation of <br />City Ordinance #4. The letter from the city states that the city has received an <br />anonymous complaint regarding the location of a temporary storage unit on my property. <br /> <br />In reading through the ordinance, I noticed that in Section 130-140, Bullet E, that I am <br />allowed to have a "temporary storage of materials aii<:r&luipment during construction and <br />landscaping" . <br /> <br />Currently, I am in the process of remodeling my basement. This can be evidenced by <br />permit #03-215. For matters of convenience and financial prudence, I chose to <br />temporarily store my personal items in a temporary storage unit. This temporary storage <br />unit is therefore holding the appropriate "materials and equipment during construction". <br />Please note that the ordinance does not specifically state the allowance or exclusion of a <br />POD (portable On Demand) unit. <br /> <br />I am hereby requesting permission to apply for a permit or waiver to temporarily store <br />this aforementioned temporary storage unit on my personal property for the purposes of <br />construction of my basement. <br /> <br />In the future, I would suggest an allowance in the ordinance for construction periods of <br />perhaps 1 year to allow for homeowners who choose to perform the work themselves. <br /> <br />Finally, in the letter I received from the city, it states that the unit "be removed <br />promptly." This is a vague definition of time. Perhaps the ordinances can be reworded <br />so that this period of time is more clearly stated. <br /> <br />Sincerely, <br /> <br />Robert Roslansky <br />
