LA21-000051 WHEREAS, on July 21, 2021, Robert Linden Construction (the "Applicant"), applied for variances from the City Code for the property addressed 1074 Loma Linda Avenue and legally described as: Lot 7, Loma Linda, Hennepin County, Minnesota (hereinafter the"Property"); WHEREAS, the Applicant made application to the City of Orono for variances to Orono Municipal Zoning Code Section 78-330 to allow a 16 foot rear setback and a 1.2 foot side setback, where 30 feet and 7.5 feet are required, in conjunction with construction of an addition connecting the detached garage to the home; and construction of a second story over the garage; and WHEREAS, on September 20, 2021, after published and mailed notice in accordance with Minnesota Statutes and the City Code, the Planning Commission held a public hearing, at which time all persons desiring to be heard concerning this application were given the opportunity to speak thereon; and WHEREAS, on September 20, 2021, the Planning Commission recommended approval of the variances; and WHEREAS, on October 11, 2021, the City Council reviewed the application and the recommendations of the Planning Commission and City staff and tabled the application citing concerns with the substandard side yard setback; and WHEREAS, on April 29, 2022, the Applicant provided revised plans for Council review reflecting a 3.5 foot side setback where a 1.2 foot setback exists and continued to request a 16 foot rear setback for additions to the home; and WHEREAS, on May 9, 2022, the City Council reviewed the revised plans and voted 4 to 0 to direct staff to draft an approval resolution; and NOW,THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the City Council of Orono, Minnesota hereby approves the revised setback variances as described above based on one or more of the following findings of fact concerning the Property: 1 �.O4r CITY OF ORONO RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL NO. 7221 ��`'ESHORS FINDINGS OF FACT: 1. This application was reviewed as Zoning File #LA21-000051.The analysis contained within staff memos and the exhibits attached to the aforesaid memos, all minutes from the above mentioned meetings, and any and all other materials distributed at these meetings are hereby incorporated by reference. 2. The Property is located in the LR-1 B One Family Lakeshore Residential Zoning District. 3. The Property contains 0.24 acres in area and has a defined lot width of 50 feet. 4. The Property is within Tier 1 and hardcover is limited to 25% according to the Stormwater Quality Overlay District. 5. Applicant has applied for the following variances: a. Rear Yard Setback Variance b. Side Yard Setback Variance 6. In considering this application for variances, the Council has considered the advice and recommendation of the Planning Commission and the effect of the proposed variance upon the health, safety and welfare of the community, existing and anticipated traffic conditions, light and air, danger of fire, risk to the public safety, and the effect on values of property in the surrounding area. ANALYSIS: 1. "Variances shall only be permitted when they are in harmony with the general purposes and intent of the ordinance . . . ." The expansions will not adversely impact the adjacent property, nor will it result in a significant massing increase within the side yard setback areas. The requested variances to connect the garage to the home as well as construct a second story over the garage is the minimum amount necessary to meet the owner's living space needs. This criterion is met. 2. "Variances shall only be permitted . . . when the variances are consistent with the comprehensive plan." The variances to permit expansions of the residence are consistent with the Comprehensive Plan. The variance to permit a minimal footprint and upward volume expansions is solely to upgrade the livability and functionality of the house. This criterion is met. 2 -SZLO CITY OF ORONO RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL �� 1011L EsHO NO. 7221 `�/ �� 3. "Variances may be granted when the applicant for the variance establishes that there are practical difficulties in complying with the zoning ordinance. `Practical difficulties,' as used in connection with the granting of a variance, means that: a. The property owner in question proposes to use the property in a reasonable manner, however, the proposed use is not permitted by the official controls. The request to permit the connecting addition to the home and minor upward expansion of the garage within the setbacks is reasonable; additionally, the small connection limits potential massing impacts to neighbors. This criterion is met. b. The plight of the landowner is due to circumstances unique to his property not created by the landowner. The Applicant proposes to reconstruct the nonconforming garage with an improved 3.5 foot setback from the side lot line with a 5.9 foot addition connecting it to the home and partial second story to improve the livability and functionality for the owners. The owners want to maintain the character of the existing home within the neighborhood; and c. The variance, if granted, will not alter the essential character of the locality." The requested variances will not result in the home being out of character with the neighborhood; and will result in minor expansions within the rear and side setbacks. The new encroachments of the home addition and second story will not alter the character of the locality. This criterion is met. 4. "Economic considerations alone do not constitute practical difficulties." Economic considerations have not been a factor in the variance approval determination. 5. "Practical difficulties also include but are not limited to inadequate access to direct sunlight for solar energy systems. Variances shall be granted for earth-sheltered construction as defined in Minn. Stat. § 216C.06, subd. 2, when in harmony with Orono City Code Chapter 78."This condition is not applicable. 6. "The board or the council may not permit as a variance any use that is not permitted under Orono City Code Chapter 78 for property in the zone where the affected person's land is located." This condition is not applicable, as a residence and residentially-scaled improvements are allowed within the LR-1 B District. 7. "The board or council may permit as a variance the temporary use of a one-family dwelling as a two-family dwelling."This condition is not applicable. 3 CITY OF ORONO RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL � gC�A NO. 7221 8. "The special conditions applying to the structure or land in question are peculiar to such property or immediately adjoining property." The existing garage within the setbacks is an existing condition which is somewhat unique to the Property but not uncommon in the immediate neighborhood. The Applicant's revised plan improves the existing side setback by approximately 2.3 feet. 9. "The conditions do not apply generally to other land or structures in the district in which the land is located." The narrowness of the lot and the setbacks of the adjacent homes which create a deep average lakeshore setback reduce the buildable area. 10. "The granting of the application is necessary for the preservation and enjoyment of a substantial property right of the applicant." Substantial property right is provided by the principal structure. The nonconforming garage is allowed to be maintained and replaced in kind. The Applicant's proposed expansion of the existing non-conforming garage is not a right, however the garage will be expanded the minimal amount necessary in order to improve the functionality and livability of the existing home while maintaining the character with an improved side setback. 11. "The granting of the proposed variances will not in any way impair health, safety, comfort or morals, or in any other respect be contrary to the intent of this chapter." Granting the requested variances will not adversely impact health, safety, comfort, or morals; The Commission should determine whether the modest expansion negates to goals of the code in relation to views into, and out of the Property. 12. "The granting of such variance will not merely serve as a convenience to the applicant, but is necessary to alleviate demonstrable difficulty." The Applicant asserts that the variances are necessary to modestly increase functionality of the home, and will not merely serve as a convenience to the owners. CONCLUSIONS, ORDER AND CONDITIONS: Based upon one or more of the above findings, the Orono City Council hereby grants a variance to Orono Municipal Zoning Code Section 78-330 to allow a 16 foot rear setback and a 3.5 foot side setback in conjunction with construction of an addition connecting the detached garage to the home; and construction of a second story over the garage, subject to the following conditions: 1. Council approval is based on the entire record, above Findings. 4 sO.AO CITY OF ORONO RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL fi), 11/11L-G1 H NO. 7221 4k 2. The approved project shall conform to the survey dated 07/07/2021 and revised on 02/11/2022; and the building plans submitted by the Applicant and annotated by City staff, attached to this Resolution as Exhibits A& B. 3. Any amendments to the plans which are not in conformity with City codes may require further Planning Commission and City Council review. 4.

A building permit must be obtained within one year of the date of Council approval, or the variance will expire on that date (May 23, 2023). 5.
