k- To: Pr( Date: Planning Commission Members Jeanne A. Mabusth, Zoning Administrator October 15, 1985 Subject: #986 George Rovegno, 2010 Shoreline Drive - Variance Zoning District - LR-IA List of Exhibits Exhibit A - Exhibit B - Exhibit C - Exhibit D - Exhibit E - Exhibit F - Planning Commission %l«^.ces 8/19/85 Staff Sketch Planning Commission Notice of Action 8/20/85 Affidavit of Publication Certification of Mailing Property Owners' List At your August 19, 1985 meeting, the Planning Commission voted to deny applicant's appeals application seeking an interpretation of the fence ordiance (Section 10.03 Subdivision 15 (C) - amended 1/28/85). Per Planning Commission notification, the applicant was asked if he wished to amend his application to a variance procedure. The City Attorney has advised that an appeals hearing does not satisfy requirements for variance review. Planning Commission must hold a separate public hearing for the variance procedure. Pertinent Sections of the Code Section 10.22 - Regulations for one family lakeshore residential districts Section 10.03, Subdivision 16 - Traffic visibility Staff has advised that Section 10.03, Subdivision 14 & 15 - Non- c.ncroachments on yard and open spaces does not apply to a required setback area only yard areas. Section 10.22 forbids all structures within 75 feet of the lakeshore. The applicant must request a variance to place a fence of any height within 75 feet of the lake. The fence is located approximately 35 feet from the lakeshore. The applicant has advised of the many problems sustained by him and members of his family in the public's use of the 25 feet wide winter lake access. He also advises of problems with passenger vehicles as they travel along Shoreline Drive and the need for a privacy fence along the roadway. The applicant has asked the City to recommend a new location for the fence and still maintain the privacy and use of his private property. This is not an easy task given the variation in elevation between the access approach and the public road, existing structures along roadway, need to maintain required 30 feet site distance at access approach to public road. The City has placed posts along the south side of the public access in order to define the edge of applicant's private property. Applicant should advise if this is acceptable.
