REQUEST FOR VARIANCE L RudolfBoukal, resident and owner of 2926 North Victoria Street, Roseville, Minnesota, am requesting a Variance of the 30 foot setback from the westerly boundary line of Lot 17, Block 4, Minnesota Realty Co's Owasso, Ramsey County, Roseville, Minnesota, 55113-1900 (the "Property"). The purpose of this Variance is to allow for the construction of an attached garage to the front of my existing home (the "Structure"), on the south westerly quadrant of the Property facing west towards Victoria Street. I will in the following paragraph set forth the existing boundaries, easements and setbacks both with respect to the County's road and with respect to the adjacent lots. It is only possible to build this garage to the west of the existing Structure. It cannot be built behind (south) the Structure since possible driveway access cannot be established without causing clear hardship to adjoining properties due to the limited area (about 10') available between the Structure and the adjacent properties both to the north and to the south. For a similar reason by hardship, neither can the garage be built as attached either to the north or to the south of the existing Structure. There exists to the west of the Property (on the westerly boundary of the lot) starting from a line in the center of Victoria Street, a 12' easement for the northbound easterly lane; then, an additional 8' easement for the shoulder of the northbound easterly lane; and fmally an additional 23' boulevard easement from the east of the northbound easterly shoulder to the westerly boundary of the plated Property, Lot 17, Block 4. This is a total easement of 43' which has been taken by the County road. The perimeter of the existing Structure's foundation is 85' from this same center line of Victoria Street, and is 42' from the edge of this westerly boundary of Lot 17, Block 4, the boundary line which is adjoining the 43' County road easement, with existing foundation lines of the Structure on the 10' setback on the south ftom the northerly boundary of lot 18, Block 4, and on the 10' setback on the north from the southerly boundary of Lots 161-04 and 162-04, Block 4. I intend to build a garage attached to the existing Structure on it's south westerly side, adjacent to Lot 161-04, Block 4. Once the structure is completed, it will continue the existing foundation line on the 10' set back on the south of the Property from the northerly boundary of Lot 161-04, Block 4. It will only encroach on the westerly 30' boundary line setback by 7', placing a new foundation perimeter no greater than 23' from the westerly boundary line of Lot 17, Block 4. There appears to be no risk of creating additional hardship, damages, threat of visual impainnents, nor any other predictable encwnbrances or encroachments to the adjacent property to the south ( Lot 161-04, Block 4) nor to the adjacent property to the north (Lot 18, Block 4). I have asked the property owners of said adjacent lots to sign this Request for Variance as witness to their approval and consent for this construction project and resulting Variance. In setting their hands to this document, the undersigned approve and consent to the construction of this garage, as attached to the existing Structure with the ensuing variance only to the 30' setback on the westerly boundary of Lot 17, block 4, and in so doing waive their right to any further objection or protest, as well as to hold harmless the City of Roseville in its approval of this Variance to myself as current property owner or to any of his heirs or assigns in title to this Property. / Owner of Lot 161-04, Block 4 .Jf/~ N ;)1;?r /J wr/lte/fJ Street address ~tt j/1/J. 9718 Ci~r?~y)c; 1 Date ' I Name zag?
