January 26, 2006 Karen Feyo 1677 Long Lake Road St. Paul, MN 55112 Re: Request for Renewal of Variance Approval - 4055 Elm Street Dear Ms. Feyo: We are in receipt of your request for renewal of variances last reviewed and approved in 1995 for your property at 4055 Elm Street. While the zoning for the property in question has not changed, the last variance approval expired in October 1996, nearly ten years ago. City fees have increased, forms have changed, and the Planning Commission does not normally review lot area and width variances unless a complete proposed house plan including floor plans and elevations, is submitted. I am enclosing the current variance application package for your use. Your application will be considered as a new application, not a renewal, and the fee for that application is $600. You should set up a pre-application meeting with me or City Planner Melanie Curtis to discuss what new materials will be required. As a minimum you should expect to have to provide house plans and elevations, a site grading and drainage plan, and the labels required for the public hearing process. I note that your letter indicated a $75 check was enclosed. No check was included with your letter when it was opened, so I assume it was inadvertently omitted. Please feel free to contact me or Melanie at 952-249-4600 if you have questions or to set up a pre-application meeting. Sincerely, Michael P. Gaffron Planning Director Encl. cc: Melanie Curtis
