<br />6. <br /> <br />(c) <br /> <br />building setback plans prior to the building permit approvaL The motion <br />unanimously carried 5 -0. <br /> <br />Planning File 2744: John Torgerson request for a variance to the zoning <br />ordinance at 337 S, Owasso Boulevard to allow for a 251 front yard variance. <br /> <br />Chairman Keith Wietecki opened the public hearing and requested Michael Falk to <br />provide a background report. Falk noted that the Torgerson site is a 7,000 square <br />foot lot with a house built in the 1930s. The zoning is Rl and the comprehensive <br />plan is low density. The site is subject to the Shoreland Ordinances. He noted that <br />the existing garage is located partially within the railroad easement. The proposal <br />by Torgerson to raise the garage and deck would allow additional space for the <br />house, living space, and a 20' wide garage. The house would be entirely within the <br />lot boundaries. Falk noted that using the existing Shoreland Code, the new house <br />would not be closer to the lakeshore than the existing structure. He noted that the <br />setback between the shoreland and the house is approximately 30'. The staff <br />considers the request a front yard variance request from the railroad right~of-way <br />and not a lakeshore variance. The 25' front yard variance would allow the new <br />structure to set within. 5' of the front or south property line, which is similar to <br />setbacks on houses. The staff recommended approval of the 25' front yard setback <br />variance. <br /> <br />Member Wall asked if the two additions including the garage and the living and <br />bedroom space were needed, and whether the garage could be moved back on the <br />site 25' reducing the need for a variance. He also asked if a second story could be <br />placed on the existing structure. Wall asked if the purchase agreement was <br />included in the packet and whether the owner had submitted a letter supporting <br />and authorizing this project. <br /> <br />Member Sandstrom asked for clarification regarding the size of the lot and the <br />setback from the lake (7,000 sq, ft., 301). Member Sandstrom asked whether the <br />new ordinance would address this issue, and how the impervious surfaces would <br />be treated under the new code. <br /> <br />Member Harms stated that if the garage were built where the addition is currently, <br />a driveway would still be needed and still would create an impervious surface of <br />the same size as the proposed house addition. . <br /> <br />Member Wall asked if there was a problem with the railroad right-of-way, Michael <br />Falk responded that it did not show up on the county parcel map and has not been <br />a factor in other variances along the same private road. In response to a question <br />by Member Sandstrom, Falk stated that the private road is access granted by the <br />railroad. Wall stated that this was an opportunity to upgrade the site and the <br />neighborhood. <br />
