Zoning File #1502 March 14, 1990 Page 2 of 4 History of Propeirty - The original house on this property was the winter of 1989 as a result of a hazardous building action^ There is no record of the actual location or ®®bbacks for the former residence. Access to the original home was achieved vi Prospect Avenue. Based on staff's recollection ^^^er several visits to this site, the setback of the original structure was approximately 10' from Prospect Avenue. The original structure appeared to be 50'+ from the traveled road of Briar Street. In 1985, a conditional use permit was issued by the City du^’ing the sanitary sewer project for the Crys t a 1 y neighborhood. Review Exhibit C, note that Briar connect from Crystal to Prospect Avenue. As a granting an easement for Briar Street through the properties, the City agreed to do certain filling and drainage improvements for the^affected neighbors. There is a recorded agreement for the property to the immediate north enclosed in your Exhibit I). In that agreement, an underground fj catch basin wa^; installed adjacent to the north line of .he subject property (review Exhibit M). A conditional use permit for th^e Subject property involved the filling of the north yard area to provide gentler grades draining northward the catch basin at Briar Street or to the northwest corner of the property to the catch basin on the adjacent property. The ^ north now voices concern that drainage from this "®'' bouse will imDact the property. The applicant has been advised to d»in.9e pirns'^>r th. new coLtruction. It the property always drained to the nortn and after filling of the propLty, the velocity of drainage was reduced by slo%s. The City may wish to condition approval ^® Fnaineer's review of the final drainage plan. The applicant s surveyor will have drainage plans for review at the Planning Commission meeting. Review of Current Application - It is unfortunate that the City has no record of the exact location of the former residence, but it is aPParent to staff that the proposed side street setback of the new tbe placed further from that side street f®bb®/k line at 22'. The 30' setback is satisfied at the north side The 50' street setback is met from the easement line. ^ road in formally approving the area variance, we muse exclude the road easement portion of the property.
