The following lot sizes reflect the requirements for the principal <br /> structure on a backlot: <br /> LR-1C DISTRICT Required Proposed <br /> Front 45 222.8' <br /> Rear 30 87' <br /> Side 10 224.5' <br /> Side 10 320' <br /> Height 30(Max) <br /> Section 78-350-Lot Area/Width: <br /> LR-1C DISTRICT(Backlot) Lot Area Lot Width <br /> Required 32,670 s.f. (0.75 acres) 100' <br /> Actual 279,683 s.f. (6.42 acre) 658' <br /> Section 78-1370 <br /> Accessory structures shall adhere to all requirements of this chapter, with the following <br /> additional requirements: <br /> a. Accessory structures within a back lot shall be allowed no closer than ten feet to a <br /> neighboring property's side or rear yard. <br /> b. Accessory structures shall not be allowed within the required street yard of a back lot <br /> nor within the required rear yard of a front lot which abuts the street yard of a back lot. <br /> c. No accessory structure shall be allowed within an access outlot. <br /> These requirements are met. <br /> Applicable Regulations:Conditional Use Permit for Essential Services(Section 78-946) <br /> A conditional use permit is required for all structures, including utility poles and rights-of-way, <br /> which are an integral part of a system for public transportation as for transmitting power, <br /> water, heat, communications, gas or sewage by any public utility.The council shall grant a <br /> conditional use permit only after a showing that the public safety, health and welfare will not <br /> be harmed by the essential services. Personal wireless services and commercial broadcasting <br /> antennas and towers shall not be considered essential services. <br /> Analysis: The most impactful aspect of the improvement is the visible 30 foot tall tower. <br /> The 30 feet height is the maximum permissible height for principal structures in the zoning <br /> district. <br /> The tower is to be located in the NE corner of the property. Immediate neighbors are the <br /> fire station to the East, and the Dakota Rail trail to the north. The nearest residential is <br /> approximately 220 feet to the north, in Spring Park, and across the trail and Northern <br /> Avenue. The tower in this area will be visible, as existing vegetation along the rail right of <br /> way will not completely screen the tower. <br />
