� August 5, -2- P�anning 1983 Office Hours 4) Prince of Peace - 482-2777. Halvor Nelson, a membe r of the Prince of Peace Church, wes�t of Victoria Avenue, s+outh of C, was in to discuss a proposed addition they plan for their builc�ing. The structure now has 11,565 sq. feet, to which they prapase to ad�3 1,200 sq. ft., which would basically be an enlarged lobby area, and a sma.11 addition to the knave, increasing the capacity from 305 to 38U. They raave 110 p arking spaces, which is adequate for �the 380 person capacity. Inasmuch as the existing parking lot is adequat for the enlarged capacity, we felt that it would be unreasonable to require new curbing on the parking. We did agree, however, to install 640' of asphal walk, c�ntiguous to Victoria, irz adherence to the City's policy regarding installation of walks when proper�y is deve loped with in the established criteria. Mr. Nelson was agreeable to th.ese proposals, and wi11 refer it back to his church board. 5) Fitzqerald - 484-25G9. IrenE Fitzgerald lives at 276 West Mapl� Lane, at the corner with Galtier., and h as a house with a 10' setback, where a 5' setback � to • ut an an 8' porch, the full 6) e t is required. Within this 10 , she wants p depth of her house for purposes of protecting the sidewalk from snow. We showed Mrs. Fitzgerald what construction cotzld be added to the house within the Code, suggesting that building such a large stxucture for mere'ly covering the walk, and for no other purpose, seemed to be a reasonabl� expensive idea. She is going to discuss this with a builderJ and may possibly not do it; or in any case, revise her plans to confoxm to ordinance requirements, which she now better understands. Vedi - 636-2597. P. S. Vedi is an architect from India wha has purchased the property �� 2�42 West County Road D. He has laid ou� a townhouse development - for this ��roperty which would consist of 6 units, plus retention of the existing house. TY�is land is shown for medium-density (townhouse) development in �he Comprehensive Plan. He actually had two plans; one utilizing an existing steel structure which he has purchased from outside of the area. We suggested the steel structure plan worked less well th��n the other, which r�ally appeared to have considerab.le possibilities. David Drown discussed drainage considerations with him. When he pursues this, it will shc�w up as a Plarined Unit Development. This land is south of County Road E, contiguous to the townhouse developmen� under construction. 7) Carlson - 48A-3073. About a month aqo, Chris Carlson was in to discuss the construction of a home west of Cleveland Avenue, at 2975 Cleveland. At that time, we suggested he try to acquire additional land and develop it in accordance with the Comprehensive Plan for medium-density housing. Apparently he was not ak�le to purchase the contiquous property, which he had wanted to �o; but now proposes to move a house onto the 6d' lot which he has acquired. This lot is 60' wide, and 363' deep, and should be combined with other lots in the arPa to p.roduce a planned developinent. We are concerned about putting a house an a 6Q' 1ot, which would then make it ve ry difficult to later replan the area for more intensive and efficient dev�lopment. He may pursue this house relocation permit in spite of the land use designated in the plan.
