PLANNING FILE 07-016 VARIANCE to Roseville Request by Michelle Grimes, 1741 Stanbridge Avenue, for a City Code,§1004 (Residential Districts) to allow more impervious surface coverage than the Code allows. Acting Chair Boerigter opened the Public Hearing for Planning File 07-016. Associate Planner Bryan Lloyd reviewed the request to allow construction of a residential addition; with the proposed addition increasing the impervious surface area on the lot by approximately nine hundred (900) square feet, for an overall total of 4,800 square feet. Mr. Lloyd advised that the existing house on the property has livable area of 912 square feet; and has a mold and insulation issue that will be addressed by the owners, regardless of whether the variance request is approved. Mr. Lloyd noted that the applicants purchased the property in large part because the rambler-style home is accommodating to the owner’s health condition; and the proposed addition is designed to allow more complete one-level living as/if the health condition worsens. Mr. Lloyd noted that City Engineer Debra Bloom had expressed no concerns in her initial review of the request; but that with the addition exceeding the 30% impervious coverage limits, there would be mitigation measures required. Staff-recommended APPROVAL of the request, based on comments and findings in Section 5, and the conditions outlined in Section 6 of the staff report dated April 4, 2007.
