Vice Chair Mulder opened the hearing and requested City Planner Thomas Paschke provide a summary of the project report dated August 5, 2002. Thomas Paschke indicated Joel Berntsen submitted an application for a 5% or 571 square foot variance to Section 1 004.01A6 (Maximum Total Surface Area) to allow construction of a master bedroom addition to his home at 660 Heinel Drive. Currently 32% of the site is covered. The applicant's expansion would add 3% for a total of 35% of the site. Member Peper asked who owned the adjacent buildable lot (George Reiling). Are there plans to add screening to the side lot? Member Mulder asked what the side yard setback would be. (3 feet, which requires a setback permit for the pie- shaped lot). Thomas Paschke explained normal conditions of approval within a setback permit process. Joel Berntsen, applicant, stated that he had planted three 6'-7' evergreens along the west side of the property, on the Reiling parcel. Berntsen explained the reasons for expansion in this location. Member Mulder asked for details on removing the northwest portion of the proposed addition. Berntsen explained the rational for making the bedroom smaller, but keeping the laundry room. Member Peper asked why the trees were planted. Berntsen bought the lot from Reiling who did give permission for the planting on his (Reiling's) lot. Julie Judd, 645 S. Owasso, asked for details of the pine trees. Birch trees were to be preserved. There being no further comments, Vice Chair Mulder closed the hearing. Motion: Member Traynor moved, seconded by Member Peper, to recommend approval of a 571 square foot (5%) variance to Section 1004.01A6 of the Roseville City Code for Joel Berntsen to allow certain home and site improvements at 660 Heinel Drive, based on the findings in Section 5 and conditions of Section 6 of the project report dated August 7, 2002. Ayes: 5 Nays: 0 Motion carried. c. Planning File 3418: Request by Tim and Leslie Golie, 592 Sextant Avenue, for a Variance to Section 1 004.01A6 (Maximum Total Surface Area) of the Roseville City Code to allow for the construction of an addition (family room) to the rear of the existing home. Vice Chair Mulder opened the hearing and requested City Planner Thomas Paschke provide a summary of the project report dated August 7, 2002. Mr. Paschke indicated Tim & Leslie Golie have submitted an application for a 6% or 622 square foot variance to Section 1 004.01A6 (Maximum Total Surface Area) to allow a porch addition to the rear of their home at 592 Sextant Avenue. Section 1 004.01A6 of the Roseville City Code (Maximum Total Surface Area) affords each residential property owner up to 30% impervious coverage on a 10Uparcel, based upon the total lot size. In the case of the Golie property this allowance cannot exceed 3,312 square feet without an approved variance. The Golie home was constructed in 1997 and is situated on an 11,040 square foot lot. The home/garage has a footprint estimated at 2,020 square feet; the driveway and rear patio/basketball court area is estimated at 1,514 square feet. Given these current site conditions the Golie lot has a current impervious coverage of 3,535 square feet or 32%. The proposed home porch addition of 370 square feet creates a total impervious coverage of 3,934 square feet or 36%. The Golie home was constructed (1997) prior to the text amendment to Section 1004 that established the 30% impervious coverage requirement. The Goile's are now faced with needing a variance in order to expand their
