4.0 BACKGROUND: 4.1 Section 1004.0lA6 of the Roseville City Code (Maximum Total Surface Area) limits each residential parcel in Roseville to a maximum impervious coverage (structures and/or paved surfaces) of 30% of the total parcel size. 4.2 The Lindholm property has a Comprehensive Plan designation of Low Density and a Zoning designation ofR-l, Single Family Residence District. 4.3 The house was constructed in 1963 on the 90 foot by 122 foot or 10,980 square foot parcel; the principal structure and tuck-under garage have a footprint size (based on applicant site plan information) of 55 feet by 25 feet or 1,375 square feet. 4.4 The tuck under garage is estimated (City Staff) to be 16 feet deep by 25 feet wide or 400 square feet and is proposed to be converted into living space. 4.5 The applicant proposes to construct a 864 square foot detached accessory structure (garage) in the rear yard adjacent the home and slightly expand the driveway by matching into the existing driveway with a two foot wide by 24 foot wide (48 sq. ft.) apron. 5.0 STAFF COMMENTS/FINDINGS: 5.1 Section 1004.01A3 (Detached Accessory Building Size) limits the Lindholm parcel to a rear yard allowance of 1,080 square feet. Mr. Lindholm has proposed constructing to the maximum permitted allowance (864 sq. ft.) under the City Code. 5.2 Section 1004.01A5 (Overall Area) restricts the Lindholm accessory buildings to the maximum size of the principal structure footprint or 1,375 square feet. With the conversion of the existing tuck-under garage (400 sq. ft. estimate) into living area, the proposed detached accessory building (864 sq. ft.) will be within the limits allowed by the City Code. 5.3 Section 1004.01A6 (Maximum Total Surface Area) restricts the parcel to a maximum impervious area of 30% or 3,294 square feet. The proposal would create a total (estimate) impervious coverage of 3,827 square feet or 35%, requiring a variance in order to construct the detached garage and apron. 5.4 Section 1004.01A4 (Requirements for Increased Size) requires accessory buildings totaling 865 to 1,008 square feet to be approved by conditional use permit. With the tuck-under garage the overall accessory building total of the parcel could reach 1,264 (estimated) square feet also requiring a variance to Section 1004.01D5. However, the applicant has indicated that the tuck-under garage will be converted into living area, which conversion can be a condition of the variance, thus eliminating the need for an additional variance.
