7- MEMO: 11/15/83 E TO: Ron Moorse, Assistant City Administrator FROM: David Drown, Assistant City Engineer RE: Public Works Comments on Dec. 183 Planning Commission Item Planning File 1474 Hoffman Corner Oil _ 301_1 Rice 'Street In addition to the requested variance of the proposed canopy setback to 10' from the property line, applicant has an existing nonconforming sign within the Rice Street right of way. Also, as this is a commercial parcel and,'thus, has new construction occurring upon it, concrete sidewalks are required on Rice St. and on So. Owasso Blvd. Planning File 1476 Dean Westerlund The site plan as submitted contains several features not in conformance with current ordinances: 1) Proposed sip- is set back 12' from the Lexington Ave. right of way. Ordinance requirement calls for 301. 2) Proposed parking extends to within 71 of the east property line. Ordinance requirment is 151. (The former plan did incorporate a turn -around within the setback area, but not parking space. 3) While a pathway has been constructed along Lexington Avenue, the ordinance would require the applicant to construct a sidewalk on the Sandhurst Drive frontage. Planning File 1477 Chris Carlson Relocation of a Dwelling. Ten feet of additional right-of-way dedication for Cleveland Ave. is required in accordance with Ramsey CountyyIs Comprehensive Plan Needs. Further, drawings submitted show a 42' dwelling to be placed on this 60' lot. Maintaining a 5' setback on the north property line leaves approximately 13' of space between the south property line to the south side of the building. Allowing for the ordinance requirement of 5' for a driveway setback, only--8 feet remains for a driveway surface. We suggest this is insufficient for a functional driveway, and driveway variances are involved here. Perhaps the house is too large for the site. DPD/c
