Zoning File #1728 April 15, 1992 Page 2 Description of Request Applicants propose a 20' x 22' addition to the north side of the existing residence. The addition will be two and one-half stories. The first level will be a two -stall garage. As of this writing the City has not received revised floor plans for addition. Applicants had originally proposed a detached garage and vacation of Barrett Avenue. With the filing of the application, applicants have withdrawn the vacation and have proceeded with an addition to the existing residence (review Exhibit I). Applicants have been asked to submit floor plans for amended proposal. The plan will be included in your final packet or presented by applicant at your meeting. As already noted above, lot coverage standards have been based on the six lot area totaling 38,700 s.f. This is an RR-1B zoning district requiring two acres in area for each residential unit. The property is served with sewer. Major access to the property will remain via Barrett Avenue but access to the proposed garage will be via the 12' alley to the east side, review Exhibit H. Because of the steep topographic limitation to immediate north of residence, the City will ask for detailed grading and drainage plans with the formal submission of building plans for addition. Applicants have not advised as to the future status of the existing garage adjacent to alley. This structure is in serious disrepair and applicants should be questioned as to whether it shall be removed with this proposed construction. It appears to currently be used for storage. Note structure does not have doors. Although Barrett Avenue and alley function as private driveways, the City does maintain both Barrett Avenue and alley. It is staff's understanding that the alley is maintained at least up to the existing garage on the Jaffray property. Review Exhibit E. The sewer "as -built" shows a sewer line running along the south lot line of Lot 16. The City Attorney's office has been asked to determine if the City has received an easement for this area of the project. If an easement has not been granted, the applicants will be asked to grant access and utility easement along the southern lot line of Lot 16. Hardship Statement Please review Exhibit A.
