PT,.::, ,. r.= James i'.\ E-,,ardt <br />lfliL <br />We have reviewed the certificate of survey submitted with the variance <br />application for the proposed garage on Eric & Shelly Liljequist's <br />property. The survey shows the proposed garage 15 feet from the twenty <br />foot wide right-of-way for Birch Lane, aligned with the west property <br />line. There is some concern that the irregular alignment of the <br />driveway will create a problem with vehicle access onto Birch Lane. We <br />have attached three options that should be considered to improve the <br />situation. <br />OPTION 1 <br />OPTION 2 <br />OPTION 3 <br />Align the garage and driveway with the house. <br />most common procedure to align a garage. The <br />the driveway at Birch Lane will be improved. <br />This is the <br />orientation of <br />Align the garage with the house such that the doors face away <br />from the street. The driveway would curve to intersect Birch <br />Lane at an improved alignment. <br />Align the garage and driveway at right angles to Birch Lane. <br />This is the most common procedure to align a driveway. The <br />orientation of the driveway at Birch Lane will be optimized. <br />It should be noted that the standard right-of-way for local residential <br />streets (private or public) is 50 feet wide . The proposed garage is <br />shown 25 feet from the centerline of Birch Lane for all options except <br />OPTION 2. OPTION 2 shows the garage 20 feet from centerline. <br />Please contact me at this office if you have any ~uestions. <br />Yours very truly, <br />BONESTROO, ROSENE, ANDERLIK & ASSOCIATES, INC. <br />Shawn D.
