Thomas Construction Description of Request: Site and building plan approval and a 3 foot sideyard setback variance. 14A MG ROUND t Tile applicant is requesting plan approval for a 128 "nit apartment carpi ex to be located at 69th and Lyndale Avenues Morth. POINTS TO BE CONSIDERED.- The site plan is in order. however, the staff would reco=iend a change to the private roadway running from 69th Avenue North to 70th Avenue Nortb. Specifically, it is recormiended that it: be reduced in size fron, 30 feet to 24 feet to prohibit parking on the roadway, and in addition, A.t should be curbed. • The variance request is rather nebulous because of 60 foot utility easement on the property. It appears at this point that the Planning Commission should recommend a five foot vacation of the easement so the building could be moved in a -westerly direction thus eliminating the need for a variance. RECOMMENDATION.- The staff xiouid recomnend approval of the site pla,r contingent upon the usual stipulated conditions and special conditions as stipulated in this report �i.e. 24 foot street. -width and curbing) . 2. The staff -would reconunend that 5 feet of the utility easement be vacated in lieu of the variance request. PLANNY14G COPPUSSION INFORM ION SHEET Application No. 70054 Applicant.- Allied. Blacktop Description of Request-. 351 variance for fence in front yard setback on the property located at 48th Avenue and Dusharme Drive. BACKGRCUM The applicant, without knowledge of ordinance requirements, constructed a 6 foot cyclone fence 6 inches inside the front property line., The ordinance promulgates that a fence no greater than 4 feet in height shall be located in the 1st 35 feet of front yard setback. The property in question is rather long and narrow (150 x 450) . The applicant contends that the fence was contructed for the purpose of protection because of vandalisin that has occurred in the past. Fie additionally contends that a 4 foot fence would not deter the vandalism, and a 6 foot fence 35 feet from the front property line would negate the use of the property • because it would allow him to utilize only 115 feet of the lot 6epth on 0.1-e South and East protion of the parcel., RE COWL,NDAT ION-, It appears that the request has merit because of the odd lot configuration and unusual circumstance of a rather large frontage, However, it is the opinion of the staff that the Commission must consider the intent of the ordinance in light of this and future requests. it is the opinion of the staff that the four foot maximum height is intended to discourage improper aesthetic appearance rather than providing for physical barriers related to property protection. Given this analysis of the ordinance intent, the staff, recognizing the unusual circumstances of the property in question, and further recognizing that it is not necessarily applicable to other property in the area, would recommend approval. •``� .- µ®p -4P a' r $00 LIME SIDING .:✓'� u,... �°'y r� ��;..�p....,w,�.^.K;:e r`�uK.`�' 'Nil ,r e L,L D4,: tk- ran If ?;DIED BI KTOP CC ir YALE- ' . .T 4L ANT } Fwt► ray $` Q Z. . :?U AlITACOWO a' � a •;,�; � � � .�� � by w�� ,,.� v
