MINUTBS OF THE PIANMIH6 COMMISSION MBBTING APRIL 17, 1989 ZONING PILE #1388-BERTBLSON CONTINnED that he had no intention to do any of those things. Planning Commissioner Brown told Mr. Bertelson that he would have no objections to a three-car garage, as long as it was one story. Mr. Bertelson explained that the garage would tuck into the hillside. Planning Commissioner Hanson said that he would approve a two story garage that was 24* x 36 Kelley interjected that Mr. Bertelson could build a 24* x 24* and put a car or boat on the second level and still have 1/2 of that level for his woodworking. Planning Commissioner Cohen said that in his opinion, the structure was too lai.ge and would set a precedent if approved. Planning Commissioner Johnson asked if there would not be a problem with the garage interfering with the catch basin and storm sewer? Gaffron explained that the City Engineer had taken a look at the situation, and felt there would be no problem with rerouting the drainage. There were no comments from the public regarding this matter and the public hearing was closed. It was moved by Chairman Kelley, seconded by Planning Commissioner Moos, to recommend approval of only a 24* x 24* 2- story structure. Brown indicated that he would allow the applicant the ability to build the structure up to the 1,000 s.f. standard. Kelley pointed out that 24* x 24* would allow the .applicant more than 1,000 s.f. Motion, Ayes»3, Johnson, Hanson, Cohen, Nay. It was moved by Planning Commissioner Cohen, seconded by Planning Commissioner Johnson, to recommend denial of the accessory structure in excess of 1,000 s.f. Hanson stated th^^ allowing only 1,000 s.f. would result in poor utilization floor space. He said Mr. Bertelson had a unique situation because the topography necessitates a 2-story walkout situation for the structure and the need to store 3 vehicles is easiest all on the same floor. Johnson stated that by allowing the 24* x 40* structure, the applicant would be very limited should he decide to add on to his house in the future.
