AGENDA ITEM <br />Prepared By: mcc Reviewed By: J Barnhart Approved By: <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />1. Purpose. This application is regarding setback variances and possibly an encroachment agreement to <br />support additions to the existing home. <br /> <br />2. MN§15.99 Application Deadline. The 60-Day review period will expire on March 2, 2022. <br /> <br />3. Background/ Summary. The City Council reviewed this application in December and gave direction to <br />the applicants to pull the new additions back from the property line at least 10-feet. The applicants have <br />redesigned the 2nd story portion of the addition to follow Council’s guidance. The living space additions <br />as well as the 2nd story roof eave now meet a 10-foot setback from the property line. They are proposing <br />somewhat of a reverse dormer where the wall of the 2nd floor addition is recessed into the new roofline. <br />This should reduce the appearance of mass of the home within the setback. However, due to the <br />architectural challenges resulting from connecting the new roof to the existing roofline, there are two <br />small, new areas of roof expansion within the 10-foot <br />setback (shown in yellow on the revised plans). The <br />remainder of the footprint additions are unchanged. <br />Refer to the revised plans attached as Exhibit A for <br />more detail. <br /> <br />4. Public Comment. No comments from the neighbors <br />have been received. <br /> <br />5. Staff Recommendation. The applicant has made <br />changes which reasonably meet staff’s initial <br />recommendation to redesign the project to achieve a <br />minimum of 10 foot setback from the front property <br />line for the 2nd story, including overhangs. <br /> <br />COUNCIL ACTIONS REQUESTED <br />1. Council should make a motion to approve or deny the <br />application; and <br />2. Council should make a motion directing staff <br />regarding an encroachment agreement to address the <br />non-building improvements within the right-of-way. <br />West side of the home <br /> <br />Exhibits <br />Exhibit A.
