2.� 4.0 <br />�� <br />i5 <br />�c <br />�� <br />�� <br />�� <br />�o <br />31 <br />3: <br />^ <br />� <br />BACKGROUND — 2002 PUD <br />4.1 On March 4, 2002, the Roseville City Council approved the Owasso Ridge development <br />and the Planned Unit Development Agreement. The Agreement included terms and <br />conditions under which each lot could develop. Specifically, each lot was afforded <br />flexibility in the placement of a home based on setbacks (minimum principal structure <br />setback - front yard = 5 feet from front property line (27 feet from street right-of-way), <br />rear yard = 5 feet from rear property line (30 feet from the boundary property line), side <br />yard adjacent Iona Lane = 5 feet from side yard property line (30 feet from the street <br />right-of-way line), and an interior side yard setback = 10 feet for nay interior lot line (20 <br />feet between buildings). <br />�� 4.2 The Agreement also allowed patios, deck, and porch additions that were required to meet <br />s4 a minimum setback of 30 feet from the boundary property line. <br />�� <br />�c <br />37 <br />38 <br />�U <br />40 <br />4 �� <br />4z <br />4; <br />44 <br />45 <br />4G <br />4/ <br />4 �i <br />49 <br />50 <br />4.3 Initial discussions in 2002 with the developer included creating an allowance for patios, <br />decks, and porches that could encroach closer to the periphery property line. However, <br />the developer chose to establish a 30-foot common area/drainage and utility easement <br />adjacent to the periphery property line, thus eliminating the ability to support such <br />improvements unless they are confined within each individual lot or an amendment to the <br />approved PUD is sought. <br />4.4 Since 2002, the Planning Division has been aware of two patio encroachments (2769 and <br />2780 Cohansey Circle), two minor deck encroachments (2765 and 2775 Cohansey <br />Circle) and three landscape retaining wall encroachment (2769, 2776 and 2780 Cohansey <br />Circle). It should be noted that the Building Permits Division and Planning Division <br />were unaware of the patio encroachments because permits are not required for such an <br />improvement. Deck encroachments do not appear on the original survey, but appear as <br />encroachments on the City's Online Mapping and in recent surveys as relatively minor <br />(no greater than 2 feet) encroachments. These encroachments include deck landings <br />and/or overhangs that are allowable encroachments of the City Code, but not clearly <br />defined in the PUD Agreement. <br />5 i 5.0 PROJECT OVERVIEW <br />52 5.1 In 2007, homeowner Chuck Fish desired a deck addition to the rear of his home and <br />53 sought support from Owasso Ridge Homeowner's Association. This proposal, if <br />�4 supported, would have required the amendment of the PUD and other possible approvals <br />5� by the City. Originally members were supportive of the improvement, however the <br />5� Association voted not to support Mr. Fish's request. <br />5� <br />5a <br />5� <br />co <br />61 <br />6? <br />G.5 <br />5.2 Soon after the denial by the Association, the issue and concern over the existing <br />encroachments came to the forefront. The Planning Division has provided guidance to <br />Owasso Ridge Homeowner's Association as well as to specific property owners on the <br />options that could be supported by the City. From the beginning, staff's position has <br />been to create a transparent solution that provides equal treatment of all property owners. <br />Specifically, if one lot is afforded an encroachment of any degree, then all lots must <br />receive the same treatment. <br />64 5.3 Since 2007 the Planning Division has met or communicated with Owasso Ridge <br />��� Homeowner's Association on options for resolving the existing nonconforming <br />PF09-007 RCA 092109.doc <br />Page 2 of 5 <br />
