McCann <br />685 Grandview Ave. <br />Roseville, MN 55113 <br /> <br />RE: STREET RECONSTRUCTION. CITY PROJECT P-00-02-35 <br /> <br />Dear Mr. and Mrs. McCann: <br /> <br />As part of the upcoming street project on Grandview Ave., the City will have the contractor <br />remove and replace the boulevard portion of residential driveways. The Cit'j Engineering <br />Department has examined all driveways for code compliance and existing and proposed grades. <br /> <br />We have found the following two issues that need to be addressed at this time: <br /> <br />I. The City of Roseville requires that all driveways be brought into compliance with City Code <br />during a permanent street upgrading. Driveways must be a minimum of thirty feet from an <br />adjacent street right-of-way line. Currently, the easterly edge of your driveway is less <br />twenty feet from the St. Alban~ Street right-of-way line. In order to comply with City Code, <br />the easterly edge of your driveway would have to be reconstructed thrity feet westerly of the <br />St. Albans Street right-of-way line. <br /> <br />As an alternative to moving your existing driveway, you can bring it into compliance by <br />submitting an application for a variance from City Code. I have enclosed the City variance <br />application if you would prefer this option. If approved, your driveway would be legal and <br />there would be little or no change of location necessary. <br /> <br />This variance application does. need to go before the Planning Commission and City Council <br />for approval. To make it on the agenda for the June 14 Planning Commission meeting, the <br />application should be returned to me by May 8, 4:30 pm. <br /> <br />2. Upon reviewing your driveway, it is recommended as part of this project that the City's <br />contractor remove and replace the boulevard portion of your driveway and a portion of <br />driveway on your property in order to provide you with a better slope to the new street. The <br />proposed driveway work and easement are depicted on Exhibit A. This would be part of the <br />overall project cost with no direct, additional cost to you. <br /> <br />2660 Civic Center Drive (0 Roseville (0 Minnesota (055113 <br />651-490-2200 (.
