- 2- 6. Nordby. Ken. Nordby was in to discuss the parking arrangements for the Ole Mexico Restaurant on Lexington Avenue. They propose to expand the restaurant and expand parking to serve it to an appropriate degree on the vacant land west of Lexington Avenue (across from the restaurant site). We asked Mr. Nordby to prepare a plan showing the square footage of the uses in the shopping center and the available parking so that the proper amount of parking can be calculated for the new lot to be constructed across the street. 7. Bever. Robert Bever was in to discuss a variance to a garage setback for his residential lot on South McCarrons Boulevard. He proposes a garage which would be 20 feet from the right-of-way rather than the required 30. We reviewed the minor variance requirements, including the necessity of the contiguous property owners approval. Doug Strong tells us this week that one of the property owners wok'.d not sign, and therefore, Mr. Bever may elect to process the variance to the Planning Commission and Council. Withoug effected property owner's approval, we, of course, cannot process the variance as a minor variance. S. Lee. Mrs. Gerald Lee who lives at 2212 Marion Road is keeping a total of dogs on her property, three of which belong to other persons. 'Into of the dogs recently got loose and were picked up by the police and so she was informed that having four dogs on the property constitutes a "dog kennel". We suggested she find another place to board the extra dogs, inasmuch as the ordinance is clear in allowing a total of two adult dogs on a single family premise. 9. Schneider. Jim Schneider is an attorney representing Robert Bigelbach who lives at 387 West Eldridge. Mr. Bigelbach purchased this house and 155 feet of the lot to the north of his property back in 1966. This division of land was not approved by the City, and he proposes to request this approval at.U-ds time. There are some complications here inasmuch as the lot has a depth of only 71 feet (off Western Avenue). This will likely be submitted to be processed at the Decenber meeting of the Planning Commission. 10. rbrawski. John Morawski bought the old Burger homestead at 1994 Lexington Avenue North. This lot is 160 feet deep with the house set well back to the rear of the property (98 feet back from Lexington Avenue). Fie proposed to build a garage 66 feet back which wiluire a minor variance requirement that a garage not be placed in the front r' The garage will be 20 x 22 feet rla- and appears to us to be proposed for a logical location on this site. This will then be processed as a minor variance. 11. Scott. Stave Scott will be the manager of the nc;%, restaurant recently approved at MinnE-,ot-a and Rice Street (to t)e called Roseville Crossing) . We reviewed the reuse of the existing sign that was set up for Grandma Lees. There will be a single pylon within the 100 square foot maximum requirements. 12, Schlenker. Cliff Schlenker who owns Rose Carburetor Se. ---vice at Fernwood, just north of Larpenteur, was in to discuss the placement of a new pylon sign for his business. We suggested a simpiler sign than he proposed, and recommended he place it 30 feet back as required by ordinance. This site, you will recall, was approved for an addition and additional parking development recently by the Planning Commission and Council. He has not been able to do this work, however, as he has not been able to change the easement which is on the site on the north portion of his land. The easement runs to private property to the west of him. In any case, he proposes to construct a sign, which we have recommended that he try to place in accordance with the ordinance without see].i g any variances.
