1 Planning File 3459: Request by Brian Bean for a VARIANCE to Section 2 1004.01E (Exception) and 1004.02D5 (Yard Requirements - Side Yard 3 Setback) of the Roseville City Code to allow the construction of an 4 attached garage roughly 24 feet from the front property line and to 5 construct the same and other house improvements 3 feet from the side 6 yard (north) property line, for property at 1760 Dunlap Street. 7 8 Chair Duncan opened the hearing and requested City Planner Thomas Paschke provide a 9 summary of the project report dated April 2, 2003. 10 11 Brian Bean, 1760 Dunlap, has submitted an application seeking approval of a variance to 12 construct additional living area on to the north and west side of his home, which addition 13 will encroach 24 feet into the required front yard (Section 1004.01E - Exception) and 2 14 feet into the required side yard (Section 1004.02D5 - Yard Requirements - Side Yard 15 Setback) of his parcel. 16 17 The side yard encroachment, as proposed, is a continuation of an existing three-foot 18 encroachment allowed when the home was originally constructed in 1941. This side yard 19 encroachment would normally be processed under a Setback Permit, but because of the 20 front yard variance, it is combined with the variance to shorten the process and provide 21 the Commission and adjacent residents with a full scope of the proposal. 22 Chair Duncan asked if the garage was built with the original house (yes). 23 24 Thomas Paschke explained the variances requested and the variance criteria. He 25 explained that an option would be to build a detached garage in the rear yard with an 26 extended driveway. 27 28 Staff recommended approval as presented. 29 30 Member Mulder asked the distance from the south wall to the property line (18 feet). 31 32 Mr. and Mrs. Bean explained that Thomas Paschke had presented the information 33 correctly. She explained the need for the additional garage and driveway. Mr. Bean said 34 a back yard detached garage would destroy a backyard, shed, tear down a maple and 35 extend a concrete driveway. 36 37 Member Peper asked what materials will be used; brick, stucco and new front design with 38 porch; brick may be half or full wall height. 39 40 Member Mulder asked if the north wall could be staggered to break up a long wall; could 41 the mass of the wall be reduced. (the proposal allows the Beans to retain the existing 42 front entry). Will there be windows? (yes) The garage is 20' x 24'. 43 44 Daniel Grundtner, 1768 Dunlap, adjoining neighbor to the north, explained he had 45 numerous concerns:
