City of Roseville - Planning Commission Agenda for April 6, 2005 Page 2 of 4 Code. Specifically the newly created parcel will have a front and yard setback of up to 50 feet, a side yard setback of 10 feet, and an impervious coverage of 30% or 2,754 sq. ft. The Community Development Staff recommended approval of a 25 foot lot width variance and a 1,820 sq. ft. lot size variance to Section 1004.016 (Residential Dimensional Requirements) for new Parcel "A", and 25 foot lot depth and a 1,580 sq. ft. lot size variance Section 1004.016 (Residential Dimensional Requirements) for pre-existing non conforming Parcel "B", and a minor subdivision to allow the creation of two substandard residential parcels for property located at 1758 Alta Vista Drive based on the findings in Section 5 of the project report dated April 6, 2005 and the following conditions: a. The City policy is to require payment of the Metro Area Sewer Availability Charge (SAC) upon the issuance of a building permit. In this case, a $1,350 SAC fee is required and will be collected with the issuance of a building permit for Parcel "A". b. The applicant must record the two lot minor subdivision survey within 60 days after the approval of the City Council. c. The applicant must apply for and receive a driveway access permit for Ramsey County prior to issuance of any building or grading permit. d. A grading plan and the survey must be submitted with the building permit application. e. The applicant is responsible for "payment in lieu of land dedication" amounting to $1,000 for the newly created parcel in accordance with the City Code regarding park dedication. (To be reviewed versus the new dedication ordinance by the City Attorney) Member Bakeman asked for the lot sizes adjacent to the site. (Similar in lot width 60 feet and depth 150 feet) Staff was asked to review the park dedication requirement with the City Attorney. The Commission corrected the dimensions incorrectly noted in the staff report. The driveway will be 50 feet in length. The house will be a maximum of 40 feet in width, with 10 foot setbacks on both sides. Member Boerigter asked for clarification of lot size and variances requirements (past and current practice). Thomas Paschke explained the precedent in the neighborhood, where nearby lots did not receive variances. Member Bakeman asked if Ramsey County has made a recommendation for right-of-way on Dale Street and if the staff would research the issue with the County. Mr. Jim Beauclaire explained the history of the lot and previous approvals for adjoining lots. Chair Traynor asked how the site will be graded. Mr. Beauclaire proposes a tuck under garage, set high on the slope of the site. Jeff Beaukamp, 1747 Dale, said there are surface water problems. There is no sewage line along Dale Street. Sewage must be pumped to the west to Alta Vista. He said the soil is all sand. He asked if the City will consider a new sewer line along Dale Street because of the failure of pumped sewage to Alta Vista. A private easement or lateral extension through the existing lot will be required along an east-west lot line. Chair Traynor closed the public hearing. Member Bakeman supported the lot split but requested that the side yard setbacks should not be reduced from ten feet except by variance and demonstration of hardship. Chair Traynor supported the request because it is consistent with the neighborhood context. Motion: Chair Traynor moved, seconded by Member Bakeman, to recommend approval of a 25 foot lot width variance and a 1,820 sq. ft. lot size variance to Section 1004.016 (Residential Dimensional Requirements) for new Parcel "A", and 25 foot lot depth and a 1,580 sq. ft. lot size variance Section 1004.016 (Residential Dimensional Requirements) for pre-existing Parcel "B" for property located at 1758 Alta Vista Drive based on the findings in Section 5 of the project report and subject to the conditions within Section 6, including 6.1 (e) (payment of park fee by applicant, if required after attorney review) and 6.1 (f) (if requested, side yard variances will be required rather than setback permits) report dated April 6, 2005. Ayes: 6 Nays: 0 Motion carried Motion: Chair Traynor moved, seconded by Member Bakeman, to recommend approval of a minor subdivision (Three Parcel Minor Subdivision) to allow the creation of two substandard residential parcels ("A" and "B") for property located at 1758 Alta Vista Drive, based on the findings in Section 5 and subject to the conditions of Section 6 including 6.1(e) (payment of park fee by applicant, if required after attorney review) and 6.1 (f) (if requested, side yard variances will be required rather than setback permits] of the http://www.ci.roseville.mn.us/councillplanning/minutes/2005/pm050406.htm 6/20/2005
