impervious coverage of 38% or 3,868 square feet. The proposed improvement, elimination of the existing 352 attached garage and replacing it with a larger, more functional attached garage of 913 square feet, brings the total impervious coverage of the parcel to 4,577 square feet or 45% (Code maximum 30%). Based on the information provided and the findings in Section 5 of this project report, the Community Development Staff recommended approval of a 10% variance (1,541 square feet) to Section 1004.01 A6 and a 1 foot variance to Section 1 004.02D5 of the Roseville City Code for Richard & Joan Prokop to allow the construction of a 913 square foot attached garage to the principal structure at 700 County Road B2, subject to the following conditions: a. All existing and proposed building and site improvements shall not exceed 4,577 square feet of impervious area. b. The attached garage being limited to a maximum size of 913 square feet as indicated on the survey. c. The attached garage not encroaching more that .15 feet on the north and 1.14 feet on the south of said structure as per the survey. d. The installation of windows along the west side of the attached garage to break-up the long mass of the building wall. e. The installation of roof gutters to properly direct roof drainage away from the west property. 1. The review and approval of a building permit consistent with the approved plans and variance. General discussion ensued regarding the height and lot coverage. (There is a small pool and garden shed (10x12) in the rear yard). The Commission asked if the shed should be removed to reduce total lot coverage. Member Mulder suggested removal as a condition. Dick Shane, assistant to Mr. Prokop, noted that the shed housed the pool equipment and the piping leads to the pool, which becomes a hardship to be removed. (Mr. Prokop was unable to attend the meeting). Member Stone expressed concern with the 60-day extension rule and reminded the Planning Commission of possible actions that could be taken.. There being no further comments, the Chair closed the hearing. Motion: Member Traynor moved, seconded by Member Duncan, to recommend approval of a 15% variance (1,541 square feet) to Section 1004.01A6 and a 1 foot variance to Section 1004.02D5 of the Roseville City Code for Richard & Joan Prokop, to allow the addition of a 913 square attached garage onto their home at 700 County Road B2, based on the findings in Section 5 and conditions of Section 6 of the project report dated December 4, 2002. Ayes: 4 Nays: 2 (Member Stone: impervious surface; Member Mulder: garage height and size) Motion carried. Member Mulder suggested that the height of the new three car garage was not consistent with the height of the Prokop rambler. Chair Duncan said putting the cars in the garage improves the sight appearance more than the height deters. No further accessory structures would be allowed on the site. 1. Planning File 3434: Request by the City of Roseville to consider annual amendments to the City of Roseville Comprehensive Plan, last updated 2001. Chair Duncan opened the hearing and requested the City Planner provide a summary of the project report dated November 6, 2002. Each year in December/January the Roseville Planning Commission and City Council affirm the Comprehensive Plan changes that have occurred during the previous year. (The Comprehensive Plan was rewritten and adopted in September 1994.) During the year, public hearings are held on all plan changes before the Commission and Council approve them. Most amendments (see examples below) are then sent to the Metropolitan Council for their review, comment, and approval. In order to keep track of amendments to the Plan, the Planning Commission has annually scheduled the affirmation of the changes and inclusion of the changes on an addenda sheet in the front of the plan. Dennis Welsch explained the review and update process. The matrix of revisions was described and the Planning Commission was encouraged to suggest additional revisions or additions.
