Chair Bakeman opened the hearing and requested City Planner Thomas Paschke provide a verbal summary of the project report dated 9/01/04. Thomas Paschke advised that Mr. Konstantinides has submitted a proposal to replace a 5 foot tall fence with an 8-1/2 foot tall fence in his corner side yard adjacent to Roselawn Avenue to provide his family with privacy and reduce the noise generated from Roselawn Avenue. Section 1012.02B3 (Required Yards & Open Space – Side or Rear Yard Only) requires fences not to exceed 6-1/2 feet in height. Mr. Konstantinides owns the lot located in the southwest corner of Dellwood Avenue and Roselawn Avenue, which is a corner lot with Dellwood Street acting as the front yard and Roselawn Avenue acting as the side yard adjacent a public street. The Staff recommended approval of a 1-1/2 foot Variance to Section 1012.02B3 of the Roseville City Code for Frank Konstantinides, 1911 Dellwood Avenue, based on the findings of uniqueness (slope and visibility) in Section 5 and the following conditions as outlined in the project report dated September 1, 2004: a.The fence not exceeding a height of 8 feet measured from the existing grade to top of fence. b.The 8 foot fence height only being allowed along the north property line (adjacent to Roselawn Avenue from the west property line to a point 5 feet from the driveway edge. Member Boerigter asked the applicant to explain the height difference between the street grade and the lot (2 to 21/2 feet). Mr. Konstantinides, 1911 Dellwood Avenue, explained the shed will be moved south five feet. The shed may be taken down and rebuilt. The fence could be placed to within one or two feet of the west side of the driveway. Member Doherty asked if 8 feet (staff) recommendation was adequate or should the Variance Committee consider 8 1/2 feet (the applicant prefers an 8 ½ foot fence). Chair Bakeman asked if the curb and gutter will be installed when Roselawn is returned to a City street (no answer at this time). At the time of reconstruction, the applicant may again apply for relief. Chair Bakeman closed the hearing. http://www.ci.roseville.mn.us/council/variance/minutes/2004/vb0901.htm5/1/2006
