The Planning Commission <br />has determined that VARIANCES to lot dimensions and area requirements, if <br />granted, will not alter the essential character of the locality, nor adversely affect the <br />public health, safety, or general welfare, of the city or adjacent properties. <br />5.10 City Code § 1004.01 A6 (Maximum Total Surface Area) limits all single residential <br />parcels to a maximum total impervious coverage of 30% of the overall parcel area. The <br />existing driveway and principal structure represents about 2,350 square feet of <br />impervious surface area; the proposed 8,200-square-foot Parcel B would allow up to <br />approximately 2,460 square feet. The proposed Parcel A would allow up to 2,310 square <br />feet of impervious coverage. Detailed measurements must be provided with applications <br />14 5.11 <br />15 <br />16 <br />� r' <br />18 <br />19 5.12 <br />for building and driveway permits, so compliance with impervious coverage <br />requirements will be addressed at that time. <br />In order to prevent the inadvertent creation of a non-buildable parcel, Planning Division <br />staff recommends requiring the applicant to submit a letter from Ramsey County <br />indicating support for a new driveway accessing that portion of Dale Street. This letter <br />should be submitted with the final survey that will be reviewed by the Community <br />Development Director. <br />Finally, information about the size of the existing parcel differs from one source to <br />20 another. The applicant's survey indicates that the properly is 12-13 feet deeper than is <br />2� indicated by the property information on file at Ramsey County and the City of Roseville. <br />22 This application is being analyzed and presented using the most restrictive data available, <br />23 so the actual parcels may be slightly larger than proposed. If this request is approved, <br />24 Planning Division staff would recommend adding a condition that would require the <br />25 applicant to submit a new survey for staff review to ensure that it is consistent with the <br />26 approval. <br />27 6.0 RECOMMENDATION <br />28 6.1 Based on the comments and findings detailed in Sections 4 and 5 of this report, Planning <br />29 Division staff supports the recommendation of the Planning Commission to approve the <br />30 following requested VARIANCES: <br />31 <br />32 <br />33 <br />34 <br />35 <br />36 <br />37 <br />a. VARIANCES to § 1004.016 (Lot Size Requirements) of the City Code to allow <br />the creation of proposed Parcel A, which is 60 feet in width instead of the required <br />85 feet, provided that: <br />Proposed Parcel A shall not have a buildable area of less than 7,700 square <br />feet; and <br />2. Proposed Parcel A shall not have a depth of less than 128 as measured <br />from the Dale Street right-of-way. <br />38 b. VARIANCES to § 1004.016 (Lot Size Requirements and Setbacks) of the City <br />39 Code to allow the creation of proposed Parcel B, which is 60 feet in width instead <br />40 of the required 85 feet, and to allow the existing encroachment of the principal <br />41 structure into the required setback from a side property line, provided that: <br />42 <br />43 <br />Proposed Parcel B shall not have a buildable area of less than 8,200 square <br />feet; and <br />PF07-060 RCA 112607 <br />Page 5 of 6 <br />
