Planning FYIe 3426: Request by Mike Strub for a 25 foot Variance to Section 1004.02.D4 of' the Roseville City Code to allow f'or construction of' a detached accessory building at 1275 Burke Avenue. Chair Duncan opened the hearing and requested City Planner Thomas Paschke provide a summary of the project report dated October �, 2002. Thomas Paschke explained that Mike Strub submitted a proposal to construct a detached garage five feet from the property line adjacent to Dellwood Street. The Strub home was constructed in 1979 and lies 17 feet from the Dellwood Street property line. The proposed improvement seeks a 528 square foot detached accessory building for the purpose of seasonal storage. The proposed detached accessory building would be placed in the northwest comer of the parcel, adjacent to the neighboring garage, but set back five feet from the Dellwood Street properry line. The Strub parcel is 10,184 square feet in size, affording 3,044 square feet of impervious area. The current principal structure, attached garage and driveway occupy an estimated 2,508 square feet of impervious area, which affords Mr. Strub approximately 536 square feet of impervious area before the maximum limit is reached. Based on the proposal by Mr. Strub, a variance is necessary to Section 602.06 because there will not be adequate depth (20 feet) behind the properry line to allow vehicle parking on the driveway. Notwithstanding, staff has determined that a condition must be placed on this proposal to ensure that vehicle parking is limited to inside the accessory structure, due to the close pro�mity to the public right-of-way and street. The site is "LR" on the Comprehensive Plan and R- 1 zoning. The adjoining neighbors to the north did receive a variance for a similarly placed garage. Paschke explained that Mr. Strub's rear yard property is used as a low area for surface water storage. He noted that over 25 nearby properkies have similar garage placements; this has occurred over time, has had many constraints including storm water. Staff recommended approval with conditions. Member Pepper asked if the applicant's garage is two stalls (yes). The applicant, Mr. Strub, said the staff report was accurate. Bob and Shirley Cobert (neighbors) recommended approval. Other emails supporting the request were received by staff (Paschke). Member Stone asked if there will be increases in storm water (yes). Thomas Paschke noted there still is porous surface in the yard. To move the garage further into the yard may require a pavement variance. There being no fiuther comments, Chair Duncan closed the hearing. Motion: Member Traynar moved, seconded by Member Bakeman, to recommend approval of a 25 foot variance to Section 1004.02D4 and Section 602.06 of the Roseville City Code for Mike Strub, to allow construction of a detached accessory building at 1275 Burke Street, based on the findings in Section 5 and conditions of Section 6 of the project report dated October 2, 2002. Ayes: 5 Nays: 0 Motion carried.
