City of Roseville - Planning Commission Agenda for June 1, 2005Page 4 of 8 Section 1004.01A5 (Overall Area), the City Planner recommended the detached accessory structure be reduced to a Code compliant size of 800 sq. ft. The reduction in size of the detached accessory structure to 800 sq. ft. does not require review and approval a Conditional Use Permit, therefore the Conditional Use Permit process is no longer necessary. Staff explained that to complete the land use action appropriately, the Commission can either DENY the request for a 960 sq. ft. detached accessory structure at 833 Sandhurst Drive or accept a willing withdrawal of the application by Mr. Zeimet. Chair Traynor clarified that to approve the Conditional Use Permit a variance must also be approved. Thomas Paschke said it is difficult to find a hardship for the variance. Deb Bloom asked the size of the house, excluding the garage. Member White asked for access to proposed garage (drive through existing garage. Member Doherty asked the impervious surface coverage, including the new pavement surface, Member Pust explained the existing versus proposed impervious surface coverages. Paul Zeimet, 833 Sandhurst, recommended 864 sq. ft. and surround it with grass, and use it for seasonal driveway not requiring pavement. (This would require a 64 sq. ft. variance for accessory storage building in rear yard). Member Boerigter asked for details required for driveway impervious surface. Thomas Paschke explained Code section 1004.01A13. Member Boerigter said the garage to the east is large – what are dimensions (Thomas Paschke explained it is pre-existing to 1999 and non-conforming). Member Boerigter asked if the variance hardship was the small size of the existing house. The issue is the size of the accessory use in comparison to the house. Chair Traynor said there is only one large garage in the neighborhood. Member Bakeman asked for the distance between the house and new garage (classic auto storage – 25 to 30 feet from house). Mr. Zeimet said he was not clear regarding the reason for a variance. Mr. Zeimet withdrew the Conditional Use Permit request and will build an 800 sq. ft. garage. Chair Traynor closed the hearing. Motion: Motion by Chair Traynor, seconded by Member Bakeman, to accept the request of applicant, Paul Zeimet, 833 Sandhurst, to withdraw his application for a Conditional Use Permit for construction of a 960 sq. ft. detached accessory structure. Ayes: 6 Nays: 0 Motion carried c.Planning File 3645: Request by Rottlund Homes to vacate certain portion of rights-of-way and easements within Phase 1 of the Twin Lakes redevelopment. Chair Traynor opened the hearing and requested City Planner Thomas Paschke provide a verbal summary of the project report dated June 1, 2005. Thomas Paschke advised that Rottlund Homes, the Master Developer for Twin Lakes Phase 1 Redevelopment, seeks approval of a Vacation of certain public road rights-of- way and easements. This vacation request includes approximately 1.6 acres of rights-of-way associated with Mount Ridge Road and 1.3 acres of road and utility easements along Prior Avenue.
