MINUTES OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING HELD FEBRUARY 16, 1988 #1241 PALM CONTINUED Attorney Boivin stated they are requesting a hardship variance. They would like to retain the garage for additional needed storage area and parking. They have also realized the extensive cost involved with removal of the garage and concrete. They would also like to keep the bulkhead door for severe weather emergencies and easier access to utilities. They also ask that the concrete driveway be allowed to remain, noting that a 15'x 15' backup apron was previously approved, but has been found to be disfunctional unless one is backing out of the garage. Chris Palm stated that they believe in the hardcover regulations to protect the property and lake, but feel removal of a perfectly good structure is not necessary. She explained the uselessness of the previously approved backup apron. There were no comments from the public regarding this matter and the public hearing was closed. Kelley stated . was not in favor of amending the conditions of the previous resolution of approval, however, he felt that the approved 15'x 15' backup apron could be relocated. Cohen and Bellows agreed with Kelley. Brown and Johnson felt that there was no hardship to justify amending previous approval. It was moved by Kelley, seconded by Johnson, to recommend denial of the request. Motion, Ayes 5, Nays 0. 11245 HENNEPIN COUNTY DEPT. OF TRANSPORTATION/ CITY OF ORONO - CTY.
