Regular Planning Commission Meeting Minutes – Wednesday, May 7, 2014 Page 3 Mr. Paschke opined that staff’s research and analysis should not be too time-consuming; 97 and suggested it may be available by the June or July meetings depending on pending 98 land use cases. Mr. Paschke advised that City Code defined what could be stored or 99 parked in a driveway and/or yard; and that staff would return with their report. Mr. 100 Paschke agreed with Mr. Mulder’s recollection that this had been discussed at least twice 101 in the past and during his fifteen year tenure with the City of Roseville; and noted that this 102 was a very emotional issue for those having such vehicles, including those having trailers 103 and/or work vans that were beyond the RV situation. Mr. Paschke advised that staff 104 would provide background information and available options for the Planning 105 Commission if they chose to pursue potential code modification. 106 At the request of Member Daire, Member Boguszewski advised that he had been 107 intentional in not defining the size of vehicle, intending to leave that at the discretion of 108 code, and based on how their size was determined by State Statute (e.g. weight of 109 vehicles, number of axles, type of licenses, etc.). Mr. Boguszewski clarified that he was 110 not intending to address the parking of semi-trailers on city streets. 111 Mr. Mulder concurred with this approach. 112 Member Daire asked that staff’s investigation include those previous conversations and 113 rationale for current code language, duly noted by Mr. Paschke. 114 Chair Gisselquist spoke in support of the motion. 115 Ayes: 5 116 Nays: 0 117 Motion carried. 118 Mr. Mulder requested that the Planning Commission also give consideration to looking at 119 his second issue related to lake properties and outside storage. 120 Member Boguszewski noted that he considered that as a separate issue from his motion; 121 and suggested there may be other ways beyond the Planning Commission role to make 122 that determination on front and back yard designations. 123 Mr. Paschke noted that a formal motion was not needed, but advised that staff would 124 research that issue as well under current code and consult with Mr. Mulder personally 125 and specifically address the property under discussion to determine if it was in 126 compliance with current code revised in 2010. Mr. Paschke advised that this review 127 would include detached accessory structures and whether permitted in the past and/or 128 now. 129 b. From the Commission or Staff 130 None. 131 5. Public Hearings 132 Chair Gisselquist reviewed the protocol for Public Hearings and subsequent process. 133 a.

Mr. Lloyd noted that this right-of-way remained unused after subsequent 140 platting of nearby property after the original platting of the Patton Business Addition in 141 1985; as detailed in Section 4.2 of the staff report. Mr. Lloyd provided staff’s analysis, and 142 advised that they recommended approval, based on their comments and findings as 143 outlined in Sections 4 – 6 of the staff report dated May 7, 2014; and the vacation survey 144 dated March 20, 2014 reviewed as part of this application, and in conjunction with the 145 City’s Public Works and Engineering Department’s review. 146
