The proposed improvements increase the parcels impervious coverage from an existing condition (estimated) 3,596 square feet (29.8%) to 4,483 square feet (37%), thus requiring a variance of 887 square feet (the difference from allowed 3,572 to proposed 4,483). Staff recommended approval with conditions. John Meyer, the applicant, stated he wanted to widen the drive to the two-car garage. Originally there was a tee adjacent to the drive, reducing the width of the drive. Member Stone asked if the boundary (south edge) of the driveway could be shifted. Mr. Meyer said that would defeat the purpose of widening the lot. Mrs. Meyer said the drive is narrow and difficult to get to the house in a wheel chair. Across the street is a busy (traffic) day care facility. No further comment was offered. Chair Duncan closed the hearing. Motion: Member Traynor moved, seconded by Member Bakeman, to recommend approval of an 887 square foot (7%) VARIANCE to Section 1004.01A6 (Maximum Total Surface Area) of the Roseville City Code to allow the replacement and expansion of the driveway for John Meyer at 2735 Fernwood Street, based on the findings of Section 5 and the conditions of Section 6 of the project report dated June 4,2003. Ayes: 6 Nays: 0 Motion carried. This item will be on the City Council Consent Agenda for the June 16, 2003 meeting. e.
