drive from North McCarrons Boulevard. Sewer and Water serve the house. The Sladky request has been forwarded to the Department of Natural Resources (DNR) for review and comment. Staff was able to review the request with Mr. Joe Richter of the DNR where the following items were discussed: Mr. Richter indicated the DNR would not oppose the replacement in the exact location. However, he indicated a desire to have the four-season porch reduced (would require smaller size) to lessen the impact of the shoreland setback or the option of reconstruction the porch on the east side of the home. The DNR would like the Sladky's to look into these options, but should they not be appropriate given existing conditions, the DNR would support the variance and porch replacement. The parcel is odd shaped, has topographical limitations to the northeast and east, is restricted due to a city sewer line and 20 foot wide easement, and has no reasonable alternative. The former four-season porch and its current foundation are pre-existing non-conforming uses. The City is concerned with how the house is situated on the parcel and the potential of the home lying over the western property line and possibly into the sewer easement. Although the sewer line was constructed many years after the home was constructed, the house and lot are considered pre-existing non-conforming. However, staff considers these two items critical. Should the home lie over the easement created for the sewer line, staff would have to review options to remedy the matter. Further, should the house be located on the adjoining parcel, the Sladky's would be required to seek an easement or acquire property to remedy the matter. Member Rhody asked whether a smaller porch was considered. Ms. Sladky said all plans are on hold, pending variance, and using the existing slab has always been the plan. Chair Klausing asked for physical hardship description (non-conforming lot size, pre-existing non-conforming structure, vegetation, slope, and east side utility easement). Tom Holloway explained the contractor plans to do current work. Member Cunningham asked if the new porch would be the same dimensions yes). Chair Klausing closed the hearing. Motion: Member Klausing moved, second by Member Cunningham, to recommend, with findings (non-conforming lot size, pre-existing non-conforming structure, vegetation, slope, and east side utility easement), approval of the proposed variance, subject to the provision of a survey of the parcel indicating all property line, easements, and structures as follows: A. A 2.1 foot (west) side yard setback; B. Lot width variance of 52 feet at the shoreland C. A Shoreland setback of 42 feet. Ayes: 5 Nays: 0 Motion carried. b. Planning File 3264: A request by David W. Kenney for a 13 foot variance from Section 1 004.02D (Minimum Yard Requirements) of the Roseville Zoning Ordinance to allow construction of an attached garage in the front yard setback. The property is located at 3062 West Owasso Boulevard. David Kenney, 3062 West Owasso Boulevard North, requested a variance from Section 1 004.02D5 of the Roseville City Code to allow the replacement of an existing detached garage with a larger (40 foot by 20 foot) detached garage with a study expansion. The proposal requests keeping the 16.6 foot front yard setback, requiring a 13.6 foot variance. Staff has reviewed the merits of the front yard setback variance to allow the Kenney's to proceed with their detached garage replacement and study addition. Staff concluded that there are unique circumstances present on or effecting the parcel and recommended approval of the request. Member Wilke asked if the slab would be replaced (yes). Member Olson asked for color of materials (match the house).
