The property is located in a B3 General <br /> Business District, and the comprehensive Flan identifies this property as Business. <br /> Adjacent land uses include commercial to the immediate north, high density <br /> residential further to the north, commercial to the east, commercial to the Nest, and <br /> a combination of single family residential, high density residential, and commercial <br /> to the south across Larpenteu r Avenue in St., Paul. <br /> 2.2 Dr. Jenkins is requesting a variance from Section 1005.01(A) of the city code to <br /> reduce the side yard setback to zero feet and the rear yard setback to less than <br /> zero feet for the purpose of replacing an existing attached accessory steel building <br /> with an addition to the principal structure. The 1600 square foot concrete block <br /> building on the site was constructed in 1 954 and was previously used for a service <br /> station. No record of a permit could be found for the attached accessary steel <br /> structure on the unrest side of the building. <br /> 2.3 St. Francis Animal & Bird Hospital needs to expand its floor area to accommodate <br /> ate <br /> g rowth. The applicant has explored several options for expanding her business on <br /> this site; however, because of the interior layout of the building, the only feasible <br /> alternative is to expand to the north and west. Any expansion to the southwest or <br /> unrest would result in a reduction in the number parking spaces 'and any expansion <br /> to the south would require the removal of trees and other landscaping materials. <br /> FF#2984- RCA(02/23!98)-Page 1 of 3 <br />
