Section 10.03, Subd. 9(B) & (D): Accettor> Bvildlag Location A Height: No detached garages or other accessor)* buildings shall be located nearer the front or street lot line than the principal building on that lot. No accessory building shall exceed the height of the principal building, nor shall it exceed 30* in height. (Request: To permit a 408 s.f. detached garage closer to the front property line than the principal residence). Disenssion: The survey identifies the footprint of the demolished detached garage. The applicant proposes to rebuild the garage parallel to the existing garage, uith 10* in between them, and with a larger footprint (408 s.f. compared to 239 s.f). Front Setback The front of the lot is defined as that part w hich abuts the shortest dimension of a public street. Given the odd lot configuration, the shortest dimension on this lot abuts Dickenson Street. With Dickenson Street being the front lot line, the proposed detached garage is located in front of the principal structure. Side and Rear Setbacks Detached garages are required to be located 10’ from the side and rear lot lines. The applicant proposes to locate the detached garage approximately 19* from the west side lot line (abutting Russell A\*enuw) and about 346* from the rear lot line. Setback from other structures A 10* separation is required between structures on a lot. The applicant proposes to have a 10’ separation between the new detached garage and the existing garage. Height The height of an accessor)' structure can not e.xceed the height of the principal structure. The height of the proposed structure is appro.ximaiely 1 r, not exceeding the height of the principal Histor): In 1965. a building permit was issued for a 20’ x 12’ detached garage. Prior to the destruction of the detached garage which is proposed to be rebuilt, two detached garages existed on the property. It was unclear from the information in the street file which of the two detached garages was permitted by the pemiit. From a review of aerial photographs from 1970. it appears that the garage which still exists on the property today wa< permitted by the building permit in 1965. « urrently within this location, there arc also twu metal sheds and a canvas covered shed which are not shown on the sur\ cy and a detached garage in the process of being resided. A building permit application has not been made for residing the existing detached garage or for the other accessory structures However, the detached garage did have a building permit to be constructed Josephin* Carpenttr J /J 200J Pagi2qf4
