PLANNING COMMISSION Councilmember Paurus, representative to the LMCD REPORT Lake rsinnetonka Conservation District, announced that the Board did approve draft #19 concerning the LP1CD Dock Ordinance. Mr. Alan Olson, City Planner, entered into the VARIANCE record the following information concerning a 115 Smith Avenue variance request of Ben Dye, 115 Smith Avenue, #364 dated March 17, 1978, which states: Ben Dye This property is located in RR-1B Zoning District (two acres) . Lot size and location of existing s.tructures are non-conforming. Mr. Dye would like to build a 12 ' X 24' addition to the rear of his existing residence. A 50 ' rear yard setbacic is required in this district. The proposed addition would result in a 3' encroachment of the 50 ' setback requirement. A variance of 3' would be necessary for approval. Since the one variance is necessary, I would suggest we address the remaining non-conformities. The lot lacks 100' in width and 68,970 sq. ft. in area. The existing garage is approximately 12�' from the road so a variance of 37�' is necessary. I believe we could request the applicant to remove the existing non-conforming kennel.
