Gaffron, Assistant Planning & Zoning Administrator <br />July 7, 1993 <br />Subject: #1811 C. Jack Remien, 3237 Casco Circle -Variance -Resolution <br />List of Exhibits <br />A -Notice of Council Action 6/30/93 <br />B -Approval Resolution <br />On June 28, Council voted 3-2 to conceptually approve the variance request and direct <br />staff to draft a resolution for formal action. Such a resolution is attached, and I would note the <br />following revisions or additions since the approval resolution contained in the May 19 staff <br />memo: <br />• Findings, Item 6 -The wording is revised to indicate that the City approved a <br />policy change rather than a proposed amendment of the municipal code in <br />December, 1983. <br />• Findings, Item 8 -Since it was brought out during discussions that this 55' wide <br />lot is the same width as at least two other adjacent or nearby lots rather than <br />being 5' short of the narrowest lots in the neighborhood, this finding is revised <br />to correct that statement. <br />• Findings, Item 9 -The introductory sentence is revised to reflect the Planning <br />Commission vote; Subitem B is revised to clarify that sewer and water are <br />available to the property rather than stating the property is served with those <br />utilities. <br />• Findings, Item 10 -Revised to reflect all three previous variances that were <br />granted. <br />• Findings, Item 11-15 -Have been rearranged and/or added. Finding 11 is added <br />to document the City's review process; Item 13 is added to reflect the Council's <br />acceptance of the three specific findings noted by applicant's attorney; and <br />Finding 15 documents Council's vote on June 28, 1993. <br />Pursuant to the request from the DNR in its June 14 letter, staff will forward a copy of <br />this resolution to the DNR within ten days. At this time, we do not anticipate further action on <br />this matter by the DNR. <br />Staff Recommendation <br />Staff recommends approval per the attached resolution. <br />Motion: Moved by __ , seconded __ , to adopt Resolution No. __ approving <br />lot width and lot area variances for C. Jack Remien at 3237 Casco Circle. Vote: __ Ayes, <br />__ Nays.
