Gaffron, Asst Planning & Zoning Administrator <br />May 18, 1988 <br />Subject: 11274 David Nelson, 740 South Willow Drive - Variance - <br />Resolution <br />Zoning District - RR-1B, Single Family Rural Residential, 2 acre <br />Application - Request for side setback variance to construct attached <br />garage. <br />List of Exhibits <br />Exhibit A - Proposed Resolution <br />Exhibit B - Planning Commission Action Notice 5/18/88 <br />Exhibit C - Memo & Exhibits of 5/10/88 <br />Discussion <br />Plehse review the memo and exhibits of May 10, 1988. Applicant proposes to <br />construct an attached garage to be located 21' from the side lot line where <br />a 30' side setback is normally required. The affected neighboring property <br />owner, Reycraft, has been legally notified of the application but has made <br />no comment to the City. <br />Planning Commission at their meeting of May 16, voted 5 to 0 to recommend <br />approval of this side setback variance, finding that various factors of <br />existing development on the property would preclude any other reasonable <br />location for this garage. Planning Commission also noted that with the <br />severe Minnesota winters, it is virtually a necessity to have a garage. In <br />addition, Planning Commission found that there would be no significant <br />encroachment of light, air, or open space enjoyed by the neighboring <br />affected property. <br />Staff Recommendation <br />Staff recommends approval per the Planning Commission recommendation, per <br />the attached resolution. <br />
