,,~ REQUEST FOR COUNCIL ACTION DATE: 11-29-94 ITEM NO.: F-2 Department Approval: [YtF/bPU) Manager Approval: ~ Agenda Section: Item Description: Hearing Pacific Mutual Door Company request for a variance to the zoning ordinance to construct an addition at their facility at 2645 and 2655 N. Fairview Avenue. (Request by applicant for continuation to the Work Session on December 19th and the regular meeting on Jan. 9, 1995) Background: 1. Pacific Mutual Door has been located in the southwest quadrant of County Road C and Fairview Avenue in Roseville since 1965. The property is 2.35 acres in size and is zoned I-I, Light Industrial. The curr~nt building is 55,000 sq. ft. in size and contains the office showroom and warehouse operations of Pacific Mutual Door. Recently, Pacific Mutual Door purchased the 3.57 acre Thermo King property to their immediate south. To handle the growth in their business, Pacific Mutual Door is proposing to add 60,000 sq. ft. of warehouse space to their existing building. This expansion would occur in two phases, but when it is complete, the building size would exceed the 0.3 floor area ratio for buildings in a light industrial district. Therefore, Pacific Mutual Door is applying for a variance to this requirement. 2.

A variance to allow for 44 percent of the site to be covered with building rather than the code requirement of 30 percent. b.
