Planning File 3549: Request by Christopher & Noelle Olson for a Variance from Section 1004.01 A7 and Conditional Use Permit in accordance with Section 1 004.01A4 of the Roseville City Code, for property located at 2940 Old Highway 8. Chair Mulder opened the hearing and requested the City Planner present the verbal summary of the staff report dated March 3, 2004. Thomas Paschke explained that Chris/Noelle Olson, 2940 Old Highway 8, seek approval of a 54 foot Variance from Section 1004.01A7 (Location) and a Conditional Use Permit in accordance with Section 1004.01A4 of the Roseville City Code to allow the construction of a 980 sq. ft detached garage in the front yard. The applicant seeks approval of a 980 sq. ft detached accessory building that would increase the impervious total on the parcel to approximately 4,669 sq. ft. The accessory building square footage exceeds the size of the home. Staff calculated the home to be 1,150 sq. ft., the attached garage to be 230 sq. ft., and the proposed detached accessory building to be 980 sq. ft. This gives the parcel a proposed total accessory building square footage of 1,210 sq. ft. or 60 sq. ft. over the parcel's allowance. Staff did not recommend a Variance to allow the overage. Thomas Paschke explained setbacks allowed within the front yard for a principle structure. Staff reviewed this proposal and determined that it is difficult to justify a departure from the strict application of Section 1004.01A5 (Overall Area) of the City Code allowing the applicant to construct a 980 sq. ft. detached accessory building. The Staff recommended not issuing a Conditional Use Permit. The Staff determined there is justification for reducing the accessory building to 26 feet by 32 feet or 832 sq. ft., which eliminates the need for a Conditional Use Permit and eliminates the need for one Variance to Section 1 004.01A5. It does, however, require a Variance to Section 1004.01 A7 (allowance in front yard). The Staff recommended approval of a Variance to Section 1 004.01A7 (Location) and a 3 foot Variance to Section 1004.02D5 (Dwelling Dimensions - Side Yard Setback) of the Roseville City Code for Chris/Noelle Olson to allow the construction of a detached accessory building in the front yard at 2940 Old Highway 8, based on the findings in Section 5 of the project report dated 03/03/04, and the following conditions: a. The attached garage being limited to a depth of 26 feet, a length of 32 feet, and an overall size of 832 sq. ft. b. A minimum side yard setback not to encroach closer than 7 feet to the side yard (north) property line. c. A minimum front yard setback of 30 feet. d. Impervious coverage being limited to 7,431 square feet.
