ROSEVILLE PLANNING COMMISSION september 11, 1991 Paget 7 Presentation Carlson summarized the proposed variance request. stokes pointed out a potential conflict of interest because the applicant had contacted and requested his appraisal services to judge the potential impact of the proposal on their property. stokes stated that he had not accepted the job. It was the consensus of the Commission that Commissioner stokes could participate in the discussion but could abstain from the vote if he so desired. Discussion Items discussed included alternative designs, the concern that the garage would over power the house, the elevation of the site, the effect of the proposed garage on the neighbor's view, the need to blend the new garage visually and architecturally into the existing house, the effect of the proposal on drainage, and the need to protect adjacent neighbors. Burt and Marilyn Muellner, 964 Transit Avenue, expressed opposition to the project because it would restrict the view from their living and dining rooms, would result in additional drainage into their yard, and would depreciate the value of their property. MOTION Harms moved and DeBenedet seconded a motion to recommend approval of Roland Gisvold's request for side and front setback variances at 970 Transit Avenue with the following conditions: 1. That the final elevation of the garage floor be subject to staff review. 2. That the pitch of the roof and exterior materials of the new garage be architecturally compatible with the existing dwelling. 3. That driveway materials and drainage be consistent with City code. 4. That a gutter be placed on the east side of the garage with a drain spout to the driveway. 5. That the construction be completed within 90 days of start of work.
