PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION No. 3279 A Resolution Recommending Approval of Variances for Robert Witt Allowing the Reconstruction of the Existing Home at 353 South Owasso Boulevard. WHEREAS, Robert Witt, has requested variances from Sections 1004.02D5 (Dwelling Dimensions and Appearances and Height, Frontage, Yard and Lot Area Requirements in R-l Districts), 1016.16A (Structure Design Standards), 1016.22Al (Non-Conformities), and 1016.26.Bl (Storm Water Management) of the Roseville City Code. The variances include: A. An existing garage to be less than 30 feet from the front yard property line. B. A structure to be placed less than the required 75-foot shoreland setback. C. A lot to be less that the required 100 foot wide width. D. A greater impervious coverage than the maximum allowed 25%. WHEREAS, Section 1004.02D5 (Dwelling Dimensions and Appearances and Height, Frontage, Yard and Lot Area Requirements in R-l Districts) requires a front yard setback of 30 feet for the Witt property adjacent to South Owasso Boulevard; and WHEREAS, Mr. Witt has indicated that he wants to preserve the existing detached garage and convert the structure to a storage building. The existing structure lies 6 to 10 feet (angular) from the front property line and would require a 29 foot variance to keep the structure; and WHEREAS, Section 1016.22Al (Non-Conformities) stipulates that non-conformities can continue but are subject to applicable State Statutes and City Ordinance regarding alterations, repair after damage, discontinuance of use, and intensification of use, and WHEREAS, the Witt lot is a pre-existing non-conforming lot with a width of 37 feet along South Owasso Boulevard, an average depth of 172 feet, 51 feet of frontage along Lake Owasso, and a lot size of 8,716 square feet. A buildable pre-existing non-conforming lot of record must meet 70% of the lot width and area requirements. The Witt lot does not meet these requirements and would need variances in order to update the existing structure, and WHEREAS, Section 1016.26Bl (Storm Water Management) requires all single-family lots within the Shoreland Management District to have no more that 25% impervious site coverage. Impervious area includes roof, sidewalk, patio, and driveway areas; and WHEREAS, the Witt lot is 8,716 square feet in size which allows for an impervious area of 2,179 square feet. The existing home, drive, sidewalk, and detached garage has an impervious area of 3,005 square feet or 34.5%. The proposed home, storage building, existing and proposed driveway will have an impervious calculation of 3,305 square feet or 38% and requires a variance to allow redevelopment to occur on the parcel; and WHEREAS, Section 1016.16 (Structure Design Standards) requires structures to be set back a minimum of 75 feet from the ordinary high watermark (OHW); and 1
