Chapman indicated she would be willing to submit plans of the shed. <br /> Kempf stated the applicant's husband also explained that the shed would be similar in appearance to the <br /> house. <br /> Chapman stated they would be agreeable to consider a third stall on the garage but that they had the <br /> understanding it would require a significant variance. <br /> Rahn stated he would not be in favor of trading the front sidewalk for a shed. Rahn stated he understands <br /> the need for storage,but that the Planning Commission typically does not trade non-structural hardcover <br /> for structural hardcover. <br /> Chapman indicated the steppingstones were planned regardless of whether they build the shed or not. <br /> Rahn inquired what the size of the current garage is. <br /> Gundlach stated the garage is approximately 25' by 28'. <br /> Bremer stated given the length of the lot and the location of the shed behind the trees, she would be in <br /> favor of a 10' by 10' shed subject to plans being submitted. <br /> Fritzler stated the fact that there are trees there now does not guarantee that there will be trees there in the <br /> future. <br /> Leslie moved,Fritzler seconded,to recommend denial of application#05-3142, Christopher and <br /> Emily Chapman,3775 Bayside Road.
