4.0 REVIEW of REQUEST: 4.1 Mack Mead has submitted a proposal to complete certain home improvements to his existing home at 388, South McCarrons Boulevard. These improvements include the addition of a second sta11 to the existing tuck-under garage with living area above, creating another bedroom. 4.2 The Meade home was constructed in 1957 on a comer lot, prior to the current zoning section of the City Code being adopted. The parcel is designated Low Density Residential in the Comprehensive Plan and it is located in the R- 1, Single Family Residence Zoning District. 4.3 The front of the Meade home faces north towards South McCarrons Boulevard, while the side of the home faces east towards Western Avenue, a 500 foot long cul-de-sac serving 10 lots. 4.4 The applicant proposes an addition to the east side of the principal structure that currently does not comply with the 30 foot setback of Section 1004.02D4. The existing east side of the structure (that portion to be added onto) is located 27.5 feet from the Western Avenue property line; the proposed garage/living area addition would lie 18.5 feet from the Western Avenue property line; the addition requires a variance of 13.5 feet based on City GIS information and the submitted site plan. 4.5 The proposed addition to the existing principal structure's footprint adds 320 square feet (20 feet by 26 feet) to the e�sting footprint. The Meade lot is 12,106 square feet in size affording up to 3,632 square feet of impervious coverage. The additional footprint does not cause the structure and pavement (current 1,522 square feet — proposed 1,842 square feet) to exceed the parcels allowable impervious coverage. 5.0 VARIANCE REQUEST BACKGROUND: 5.1 Section 1004.02D4 of the Roseville City Code states: A side yard adjacent a street on a comer lot shall not be less than 30 feet (Ord. 275, 5/12/59 and amended in 1995). The Meade home is a 1957 rambler with a single stall tuck-under garage that was constructed prior to the enactment of the Section 1004.02D4. 5.2 Any proposed addition to the Western Avenue portion of the structure, such as adding a sta11 to the garage and living space above, would require a variance. The Meade's current situation would be classified by the Community Development Department as a pre-existing non-conforming use. 5.3 The east side of the parcel has a steep slope, requiring complicate excavation to comply with the Code.
