Rahn suggested the applicant consider <br /> revising his plans. <br /> Mrs. Olson stated the existing tuck-under garage is recessed and that they are trying to improve the <br /> appearance of the structure by changing the roofline. <br /> Rahn noted that side of the house is located 77 feet to the street and that in all likelihood there is a <br /> design element that could be utilized to achieve the 77-foot setback. <br /> Leslie moved,Kempf seconded,to recommend approval of Application#05-3084,4360 Bayside <br /> Road,with the condition the proposed garage be located no closer to the road than the current <br /> 77 feet front yard setback. VOTE: Ayes 5,Nays 0. <br /> Bremer indicated she would have allowed the structure to be constructed at 75 feet. <br /> Olson inquired whether the setback goes from the corner of the foundation or the overhang. <br /> Rahn indicated it is typically the foundation and not the overhang. <br /> Gundlach noted the overhang in that situation should not exceed one and a half feet. <br /> 6. #05-3085 JUL ANN,INC.,3455 SHORELINE DRIVE, COMMERCIAL SITE PLAN <br /> REVIEW,7:13 P.M.—7:40 P.M. <br /> Harry and Julie Kreslins,Applicants, Paul Overson, son of the property owner,were present. <br /> Gundlach stated the applicant has requested a commercial site plan review in order to relocate her <br /> existing business across the street to 3455 Shoreline Drive and to obtain an occupancy and/or building <br /> permit for property located at 3455 Shoreline Drive. The applicants are proposing to convert an existing <br /> lower level vacant space into a beauty shop/salon,which is a permitted use under the B-1 zoning <br /> district. <br /> Gundlach noted typically permitted uses do not require Planning Commission or City Council approval <br /> but it was discovered by Staff that this space never received any legal occupancy permits, which is the <br /> reason for the commercial site plan review. The purpose of the commercial site plan review is to verify <br /> adequate parking, safe and legal access, signage in accordance with the sign regulations as well as a <br /> general review of the site. Gundlach stated currently there are two accesses to this site, one at Shoreline <br /> Drive for the street level businesses and one through the Keaveny site to the direct east off of Kelly <br /> PAGE 11 <br />
