Community Development Department 651-792-7005 ♦ fax: 651-792-7070 March 27, 2006 Puneet Vedi, Associate AIA Senior Associate Vedi Associates, Inc. 1129 Washington Avenue S Minneapolis, MN 55415 RE: Proposed Addition at 251 S Brenner Street, Roseville, MN. Dear Mr. Vedi, Thank you for the proposal to construct an addition to the residence at 2515 Brenner Street. The City of Roseville Community Development Department has reviewed the proposal, compared it to the Comprehensive Plan as well as the applicable Codes and Ordinances, and has prepared the following comments: ■ The property located at 2515 Brenner Street has a Comprehensive Land Use Plan designation of Low Density Residential (LR) and a zoning classification of R-1, Single Family Residence District. ■ The proposed addition, measuring 40 feet by 20 feet-8 inches, has an area of about 825 square feet. ■ The area of the existing structure illustrated in the proposal differs from the City's records; the dwelling in the proposal measures about 2,200 square feet whereas the structure measures about 2,525 square feet according to the City's data. ■ The existing impervious surface area on the lot (including the driveway) covers either 3,025 square feet (City's records) or 2,800 square feet (applicant's proposal). The code requires that impervious surfaces (i.e., all pavement and buildings) cover a maximum of 30% of a lot; on this lot, the code allows the construction of about 3,375 square feet of such impermeable surfaces. The proposed total surface area is about 3,575 square feet ar 3,850 square feet, depending on the source of the measurements; therefore, the proposed addition will cause the total surface area to exceed the maximum total surface area an amount ranging from 200 square feet to 475 square feet. A variance will be required to ezceed the maximum total surface area.
