5.9 is to to not by the landowner: The Albertson situation is unique. While the lot is large enough two homes, the original home was constructed in such a way that it limits options/opportunities for the property. The property could also be divided into two parcels that meet the minimum 85 foot width requirement of Section 1004.016 of the Roseville City Code. However, this design is not practical, nor reasonable. The Community Development Staff has determined that the plight of the landowner is due to circumstances unique to the property not created by the landowner. 5.10 The variance, if granted, will not alter the essential character of the locality: Although approving this variance would create a parcel that is narrower in width than the vast majority of lots in the neighborhood (most lots are 100 feet wide), the 69 foot width is appropriate given the current site conditions. By City Code, any home placed on the newly created parcel will only be required to meet a 40 foot front yard setback. The existing home is set back approximately 58 feet from the front property line. A newly created parcel that is 85 feet wide could intrude into the front yard (perceived) area of the existing home, creating an unwelcome situation. The Community Development Staff has determined that a 16 foot lot width variance, if granted, will not alter the essential character of the locality, nor adversely affect the public health, safety, or general welfare, of the city or adjacent properties. 6.0 STAFF RECOMMENDATION: 6. I The Community Development Staffrecommends approval of a 16 foot VARIANCE to Section] 004.0]6 of the Roseville City Code and a MINOR SUBDIVISION in accordance with Section 1] 04.04E of the Roseville City Code for Vernon Albertson to allow the creation of a 69 foot wide by 200 foot deep parcel adjacent to (south) 3] 03 Asbury Street, based on the findings in Section 5 of the project report dated March 25, 2004 and the following conditions: a.

The City policy is to accept park land or cash in lieu of land dedication for the creation of new lots. In this case no park is planned near of on this site, therefore, cash will be accepted in lieu of parkland dedication. The dedication fee is $1000.00 for the newly created Parcel B. The fee will be collected prior to issuance of a building permit on said Parcel B. c.
