Community Development Department ph: 651-792-7005 fax: 651-792-7070  9 May 2006 Approval of a Side Yard Setback Permit (Section 1013.05 of Roseville City Code) RE: Dear Roseville property owner, Several South Owasso driveways that were built prior to the adoption of the current code requirements are closer to their side property lines than the code now allows. In light of the regulatory changes that have been made since these lots were improved, some property owners applied for Setback Permits which would return these properties to proper legal standing. These Setback Permit applications requested that the driveways remain in their current locations, and the Setback Permits simply represent an administrative effort to clear up problems created through no fault of the property owners. th On Thursday, May 4, 2006, the Roseville Development Review Committee (DRC) reviewed SIDE YARD SETBACK PERMIT and recommended approval of a to allow the existing driveways of the following properties to remain in their current locations: 164 375 433 215 385 585 363 389 625 367 423 2996 Marion Street Comments Regarding Issues at Hand: No written or verbal comments were received in support or in opposition of the Setback Permit applications. Development Review Committee Recommendation: Approval of a Setback Permit typically depends on the proposal’s ability to satisfy eight (8) of twelve (12) site conditions listed in the application. Many of the 12 site conditions do not apply to these applications, because the conditions assume that changes are proposed for the site whereas these sites are remaining unchanged. While fewer than 8 of the 12 conditions were satisfied in the majority of the cases, the Setback Permit Review Committee (Deb Bloom, Bryan Lloyd, Jamie Radel, and Thomas Paschke) found that all of the applications satisfied enough of the relevant requirements to be approved. The Committee, therefore, recommended approval all of the Setback Permit applications without imposing any additional conditions for approval. City Planner Decision: I concur with the recommendations of the DRC to issue the Setback Permits, and, as allowed for in Section 1013.05 of the City Code, make all of the DRC recommendations a condition of approval of the Setback Permits. th After the (ten-day) appeal process has expired at NOON on Monday, May 15, assuming no written appeal has been received by the City Manager, the Setback Permit will be in effect. If an official appeal is properly registered, it will be heard by the Variance Board at the Board meeting th of June 7, 2006, beginning at 5:00pm.
