Section 1010 specifies the design standards for site improvements. <br />2.0 BACKGROUND <br />2.1 NIr. Noland has expressed interest in updating the parking and landscaping surrounding the <br />auto repair structure, previously used as a gas station. The building was constructed in 1954 and <br />is a permitted pre-e�sting but non-conforming structure and parking. Staff reviewed the <br />proposal and concluded that variances would be necessary to complete work on the site. <br />2.2 The 11,400 square foot properiy is currently zoned B-3, General Business District which allows <br />auto repair (as a new use) as a conditional use permit. The current use of the property has been <br />active since 1954. <br />2.3 The staff researched the comprehensive plan designation for the properiy and concluded that <br />2 150 Hamline Avenue has been either in either a business or commercial designation from <br />1959 through the 1979 succession of community plans. <br />3.0 PROJECT REVIEW WITH STAFF COMIV�NT & FINDINGS <br />3.1 Section 1005 states that parking must have a 15 foot setback from right of ways. Based on the <br />proposal a variance is necessary to a11ow the e�sting parking to remain and be improved. <br />3.2 Section 10 13.02 requires the applicant to demonstrate a physical hardship and to demonstrate <br />that no practical alternatives e�st that would reduce the need for a variance. <br />PF3316 — RCA3316(062601) Page 1 of4 <br />
