4.0 REVIEW of REQUEST: 4.1 The odd triangular corner parcel is approximately 11,595 square feet in size. The current City Code requires corner lots to be 100 feet by 100 feet and 12,500 square feet in size. Section 1004.01A6 of the City Code allows the 11,595 square foot parcel to have a maximum impervious coverage of 3,479 square feet. 4.2 The submitted plan, a walkout rambler, illustrates the home set 3.5 feet from the north property line adjacent (South McCarrons Boulevard) and 6 feet from south property line (W oodruff Avenue) on an odd shaped triangular lot. The proposal also calls for a deck on the main lever to be placed within 1.5 feet from the north property line. The submitted plan includes an estimated 3,241 square feet of impervious surface coverage, but the proposed gravel driveway must be a hard, all weather surface, increasing the proposal to 3,531 square feet. 4.3 Given the submitted plan layout, the proposal requires a variance to Section 1004.01A6 (Maximum Total Surface Area); a variance to Section 1004.02D4 (Dwelling Dimensions _ Setbacks); a variance to Section 1004.02D5 (Dwelling Dimensions - Setbacks); and 1012.02B2 (Certain Structures Not Considered Encroachments) of the Roseville City Code. 4.4 Specifically, the applicants seek a 52 square foot variance for impervious coverage on the 11,595 square foot lot; a 27.5 foot front yard setback variance for that portion of the structure adjacent to North McCarrons Boulevard; a 24 foot front yard variance (or corner side adjacent to street) for that portion of the structure adjacent to Woodruff Avenue; a one foot variance to allow a deck to within 1 foot of a property line. 4.5 The parcel is designated Low Density Residential in the Comprehensive Plan and it is located in the R-l, Single Family Residence Zoning District. 4.6 This area of Roseville was originally platted in 1939 as Rolling Green. The former home was constructed in the late 1960's, which structure stood on the parcel until 1998. The subject parcel, lot 1, Block 3, also experienced a minor amendment in 1978 that changed the east property line. 4.7 In 1998 the former home located on the subject parcel had to be removed due to an inadvertent heating oil spill in the basement that contaminated the structure. Since that date all petroleum contamination has been removed for the property and the parcel graded accordingly. 5.0 STAFF COMMENTS/FINDINGS: 5.1 Section 1004.02D4 of the Roseville City Code requires a 30 foot minimum setback for a side yard on a corner lot adjacent a street; similarly, Section 1004.02D5 requires a 30 minimum setback in a front and rear yard; impervious coverage is limited to 30% of the lot/parcel size; and decks must be setback a minimum of two feet from a property line.
