Address: 2933 Quail  Applicant: Matt Harambasic  Request: Variance of 2.8 feet off the required 35 feet to a distance of 32.2 feet for a front yard  setback.    Request: Variance of 0.4 feet off the required 15 feet to a distance of 14.6 feet for a side yard  setback.    Myles Campbell, Planner, reviewed the location and noted this item was for two variances at the  same address. Staff also noted that these variances were before the Board once before but due to  construction delays, the period of time the variance was allowed in has lapsed and the applicant  must present again.   Campbell showed members the home’s location on a map in the City, as well as provided a  background and noted existing conditions. Primarily, a two‐car attached garage faces the street, but  it was built at a slight angle following the curve of Quail Ave N. The build is currently nonconforming  to the front yard setback and the garage is structurally unsound. The homeowner’s preference for  the new build is to have a slightly different footprint  April 25, 2022 – 7 pm  City of Golden Valley    BZA Regular Meeting  March 25, 2023 – 7 pm       2  Practical Difficulties   Rebuilding a structurally deficient attached garage is a reasonable use for a single‐family lot.  The applicant is proposing to push the new structure further from the front property line,  though it would still be a few feet within the front yard setback, improving the condition from  the street. Therefore, staff believes the variance requests propose to use the property in a  reasonable manner.   The applicant purchased a home with an existing nonconforming situation and, with the  reconstruction of the attached garage, would actually be improving the nonconformity by  locating the bulk of the new build outside of the front yard setback. The intrusion into the side  yard setback is also partly due to the angle of the home in relation to the side property line.   Staff finds the landowner is not causing the unique circumstances that require the variance.   Given the improvement to the nonconforming front yard setback, and the minor intrusion into  the side yard setback, staff believes the proposed use would not alter the essential character  of the area.    Other Considerations  Staff assesses whether the request represents the smallest feasible variance or if there are other  options available:   A smaller addition or no addition could be pursued, however 24 feet is standard for a garage  and current design avoids construction waste.     Recommendations  Staff recommends approval of the variance request for 2.8 feet off of the 35 feet required to a  distance of 32.2 feet for a front yard setback.    Staff recommends approval of the variance request for 0.4 feet off of the 15 feet required to a  distance of 14.6 feet for a side yard setback.    Chair Carlson invited the applicant to speak.     Matt Harambasic, applicant, stated the information was well presented and he added that all  adjacent neighbors are aware of the project and support it.     Chair Carlson opened the public hearing 7:09pm.  There were no in person comments.  There were no online/remote comments.   Chair Carlson closed the hearing at 7:10pm.    Orenstein noted the application is straightforward and the approved it once before so they’re  inclined to do so again. Chair Carlson stated all the requirements for a variance are met. Nelson  noted the setback difference and the shape of the road not being the fault of the homeowner.     City of Golden Valley    BZA Regular Meeting  March 25, 2023 – 7 pm       3  MOTION made by Commissioner Brookins, seconded by Orenstein to approve both requests:    2.8 feet off of the 35 feet required to a distance of 32.2 feet for a front yard setback.   0.4 feet off of the 15 feet required to a distance of 14.6 feet for a side yard setback.  Motion carried       2. Council Updates  Council Member Rosenquist noted that Thursday 4/27 is the City’s dinner to recognize Board and  Commission members. Kade Arms‐Regenold will be recognized for his service as a youth and then  voting member as he will not be pursuing another term.   Councilmember Sandburg submitted her resignation as her family is moving abroad. Applications are  being accepted for a member to fulfill the remainder of her term, May 19 is the appointment date.  Applications are available online and in person at City Hall.     3. Adjournment  MOTION made by Orenstein, seconded by Chair Carlson and the motion carried unanimously to  adjourn the meeting at 7:16 pm.  Motion carried.                                                                                                        ________________________________                                                                                               Chris Carlson, Chair  _________________________________  Amie Kolesar, Planning Assistant    1      Date:  May 19, 2023  To:  Golden Valley Board of Zoning Appeals  From:  Myles Campbell, Planner  Subject:  3350 Kyle Ave N  Peter Bisila, Applicant      Introduction  Peter Bisila, property owner of 3350 Kyle Ave N, is seeking a variance from the City Code  related to a detached garage. He is requesting the following:   Variance Requests City Code Requirements  The applicant is requesting a  variance of 27.1 feet off the  required 35 feet to a  distance of 7.9 feet for a  front yard setback.  § 113‐88, Single‐Family Zoning District, Subd. (f)(1)(a) Principal Structures –  Front Setback  The required minimum front setback shall be 35 feet from any front lot  line along a street right‐of‐way line.  Background  3350 Kyle Ave N is a 55,422 square foot single‐family residential lot in the north portion of the  city, east of Highway 100. The single‐family home was built in 1947 with an attached two‐car  garage facing the street. The existing garage is somewhat undersized at 20’x20’ roughly.  Uniquely, the property’s north side property line is considered a front property line due to it  facing a section of unpaved right‐of‐way originally reserved by the city to eventually connect  34th Ave N with June  Ave N to the east in  Sochacki Park. As a  result, any structures  in the rear yard would  be considered to  meet the 35’ front  setback required for  accessory structures.      2      Summary of Request  The applicant is proposing to replace an existing 10’x9’ shed to the rear of the home with a new  detached garage, with a 24’x24’ footprint. The new garage would be 7.9’ off the property line and  26.6’ back from the home. The new garage in conjunction with the existing attached garage would  not exceed the 1,000 sq.ft. limit for accessory structures in R‐1 zoning. The garage would be used as  a space for woodworking and could also double as additional vehicle storage. The existing driveway  would be extended back to access the west face of the new garage. Applicant noted that a  conforming garage setback 35’ would be essentially in the middle of the lot behind the house,  restricting use of the backyard and requiring much more significant impervious surface to provide  the longer driveway.        As noted in the application materials, Planning staff did consult with Engineering on this request to  determine what the likelihood that 34th Ave would ever get punched through to the east. In their  opinion that was extremely unlikely, partly due to the coordination required between Golden  Valley, Robbinsdale, and the Three Rivers Park District, but more importantly due to the extreme  drop in grade from where the street currently ends, more than 50 feet.             3    Analysis  In reviewing this application, staff has maintained the points of examination to the  considerations outlined in Minnesota State Statute 462.357 – that the requested variance is in  harmony with the general purposes and intent of the Zoning Chapter, that it is consistent with  the City’s Comprehensive Plan, and that a property exhibit “practical difficulties” in order for a  variance to be granted.     Staff finds that the variance is generally in line with the purpose of the Zoning Code as well as  the purpose of the Single‐Family Zoning District, which is to provide for detached single‐family  dwelling units at a low density along with directly related and complementary uses. The request  would not allow for additional unit density in the neighborhood and the rebuilt garage, as  proposed, would not have a negative impact on the welfare of neighboring properties.    In the City’s 2040 Comprehensive Plan, one of the stated objectives of the Land Use Chapter is  to protect existing residential neighborhoods. Staff feels that this request would not cause harm  to the neighborhood at large. Additionally, in the Comprehensive Plan’s Housing Chapter is an  objective to support the rehabilitation and reinvestment of the housing stock as structures  continue to age. This type of reinvestment in mid‐century homes helps to keep these properties  in good repair and increase their usability by residents.    In order to constitute practical difficulties:    1. The property owner must propose to use the property in a reasonable manner.  The proposed reduction in front setback appears more drastic and impactful than what  the resulting structure will be. Compared to the typical side setback for accessory  structures of 5’ the new structure has some additional spacing from the property line,  and also preserves the majority of the backyard for outdoor living space. Therefore, staff  believes the variance requests propose to use the property in a reasonable manner.    2. The landowners’ problem must be due to circumstances unique to the property that  are not caused by the landowner.  The platted but undeveloped right‐of‐way to the north of the property is an oddity that  is fairly unique to a few properties west of June Ave. While practically it is the rear yard,  the undeveloped right‐of‐way is almost entirely the reason why a conforming garage is  impractical here. Staff believe the site does exhibit unique circumstances.    3. And the variance, if granted, must not alter the essential character of the locality.  The new garage would only be minimally visible from the public street along Kyle Ave,  and would be over 70 feet from the nearest home in Robbinsdale to the north. Staff  believes the proposed use would not alter the essential character of the area.    Additionally, staff assesses whether other options are available to meet the applicant’s needs  without requiring a variance, or whether the proposal represents the smallest variance  necessary to meet the applicant’s needs. In this case, few options exist short of locating the  4    garage in the middle of the backyard to meet the setback requirement, which would result in  addition loss of trees and greenspace. Any addition to the existing garage would similarly  trigger the 35 foot setback and be much more visible from the street.     Recommendation  Based on the factors above, staff recommends approval of the variance request for 27.1 feet  off the required 35 feet to a distance of 7.9 feet for a front yard setback.

To:  Golden Valley Board of Zoning Appeals  From:  Jason Zimmerman, Planning Manager  Subject:  Driving Range at 7001 Golden Valley Road  Golden Valley Golf and Country Club, Applicant      Introduction  Andres Melby, of Civil Site Group on behalf of the Golden Valley Country Club at 7001 Golden Valley  Road, is seeking a variance from the City Code in order to erect poles and netting along the driving  range. The applicant is seeking the following:  Variance Requested City Code Requirement  The applicant is requesting  a variance to allow driving  range poles and netting to  rise to a height of up to 100  feet.  § 113‐96, Insitutional Zoning District, Subd. (f)(2) Accessory  Structures: Height    No accessory structure shall be erected in the Institutional Zoning  District with a height in excess of one story, which is 10 feet from  the floor to the top horizontal component of a frame building to  which the rafters are fastened.    Background  The subject property (the Golden Valley Golf Course and Country Club) is zoned Institutional. The entire  property is just over 146 acres, though this will be reduced by 2.35 acres as a new housing development  is constructed in the southeast corner of the course. The area in question is the driving range, which is  located along with eastern edge of the course, east of the clubhouse, and south of the railroad tracks.  Plans are underway to reshape the driving range and orient the direction of the tees from south to  north. New poles and netting are needed to prevent golf balls from being hit into the property to the  east, which is being redeveloped as an office park, or towards the clubhouse to the west. The necessary  height of these poles is well in excess of the maximum height allowed for accessory structures, which  limits them to 10 feet.    2      Aerial photo (Google Earth)    Summary of Requests  The applicant is requesting a variance from the height limit for accessory structures. They propose  to install 36 poles, ranging in height from 35 to 100 feet. Netting will be hung between poles to  encapsulate the driving range. See attachments for the proposed layout.    The regulations around accessory structures limit height to 10 feet, and no exceptions are listed in  City Code. The applicant points to the need for the netting in the interest of public safety and to  prevent property damage given the proximity to the adjacent commercial development. Existing  poles and netting will be removed as the driving range is modified.    Analysis  In reviewing this application, staff has maintained the points of examination to the considerations  outlined in Minnesota State Statute 462.357 – that the requested variance is in harmony with the  general purposes and intent of the Zoning Chapter, that it is consistent with the City’s  Comprehensive Plan, and that a property exhibit “practical difficulties” in order for a variance to be  granted.     Staff finds that the variance is generally in line with the purpose statement in the Zoning Code (“to  establish areas where both public and private institutional uses such as schools, places of worship,  hospitals, parks, golf courses, nursing homes, and public buildings may be located”), as it supports  the existing principal use of the lot as a golf course with driving range. Staff also finds the request  reasonable in light of the 2040 Comprehensive Plan, which has the goal of working to accommodate  3    the needs of existing businesses and supporting growth and expansion that is compatible with  surrounding neighborhoods.     In order to constitute practical difficulties:    1. The property owner must propose to use the property in a reasonable manner. As  proposed, the new poles and netting would allow the continued use of the driving range,  which is a key component of the golf course operations. Without the netting, balls could be  hit onto the adjacent commercial property, causing damage and impacting public safety.  Staff believes the proposed use is reasonable.    2. The landowners’ problem must be due to circumstances unique to the property that are  not caused by the landowner. The Golden Valley Country Club operates in an urban area  that has developed significantly subsequent to its establishment. New commercial  development on the adjacent property was not caused by the landowner, but has resulted in  a situation that requires additional protections in order to limit impacts from the driving  range. The circumstances of the landowner’s situation are unique.    3. And the variance, if granted, must not alter the essential character of the locality. Given  the long‐standing operations of the golf course, the presence of some existing poles and  netting, and the size of the property and relative distance from most other property owners,  the new poles and netting should not impact the overall feel of the locality. Therefore, staff  believes granting the variance would not alter the essential character.    Additionally, staff assesses whether other options are available to meet the applicant’s needs  without requiring a variance, or whether the proposal requests the smallest variance necessary to  meet the applicant’s needs.      Staff is not aware of any other option beyond closing the driving range operations, which  would threaten the viability of the golf course. The absence of netting, or even lower netting,  would not protect adjacent users and therefore would put other properties at risk.    Recommendations  Staff recommends approval of the variance to allow driving range poles and netting to rise to a  height of up to 100 feet, with the following condition:    1. Engineered plans for the poles and netting must be reviewed and approved by the Building  Official prior to permitting and installation.              4    Points of Consideration for “Practical Difficulty” Test Met Not Met  Property proposed to be used in a reasonable manner X   Problem due to circumstances unique to the property and not  caused by the landowner  X   If granted, would not alter the essential character of the  locality  X   Are other reasonable options available?  Staff is unaware of any other viable options.    10" DIP10" DIP6" DIP12" DIPGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG GGGGGGGGGGGG GGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG GGGGGGGGGGGG GGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG GGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG GGGGG GGGGG GGGGG GGGGG GGGGG GGGGG GGGGG GGGGGGGGGGGGGG GGGGGGGGG GGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG GGGGGGGGG G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G GGGGGGGGGGG GGGG GGGG GGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG G GG GGG GGG GGG GGG GGG G GG G GGG GGG GGG GG GGG GG GG GG GGG GG GG GG GG G GG GGG GG GGG GG GGG GG GGG GG G GG GG G GG GGG GG GGG GG GGG GG G GG GG G GG GG GGG GG GG GGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG GGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG GGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG GGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG GGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG GGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG GGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG GGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG GGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG GGGGGGGGGGGG GGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG GGGGGGGGGGGG GGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG GGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG GGGGG GGGGG GGGGGGGGGGGGGG GGGGGGGGGGGGGG GGGGGGGGGGGGG GGGGGGGGGGGGG GGGG G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G GG GGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG GGGGG GGGG GGGGGGGGGGGGGGG G GG GGG GGG GGG GGG G GG G GGG GGG GGG GGG GGG GG GG GG GG GGG GG GG GG GGG GG GGG GG GGG GG GGG GG G GG GGG GG GGG GG GGG GG GGG GG G GG GGG GG GGG GG GG G GG GG GG G GGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG GGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG GGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG GGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG GGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG GGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG GGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG GGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG GGGGGGGGG 6" 2" 2" 8" 3939930930926 926 5 0 y d s 4 5 y d s 5 5 y d s 30 ydsPart 2 asphalt cart path New 3,280 sf green New 2,880 sf green New 20' x 35' tee New asphalt cart path New 20' x 24' back tee Remove 5 trees to open sightline to landing area New 425 sf bunker New 400 sf bunker N GOLDEN VALLEY C O U N T R Y C L U B EST.1914 0 40 80 120 FTLAYOUT P L A N 2 c This plan and the concepts represented herein are the property of Norby Golf Course Design.

The property owner must propose to use the property in a reasonable manner. As  proposed, the new detached garage would be in line with the front plane of the existing  4    home, though due to the angle of the structure it would in reality be slightly closer to the  street. Access would be provided off the alley, preserving the front yard along Woodstock. A  small one‐stall tuck‐under garage is typically viewed as insufficient to meet modern living  and staff has supported garage expansions in the past. Staff believes the proposed use is  reasonable.    2. The landowners’ problem must be due to circumstances unique to the property that are  not caused by the landowner. While corner lots present additional challenges for siting  structures on the lot, there are thousands of them across the city and staff does not view this  condition in and of itself to be a unique circumstance. The lot in question has no notable  topography and the presence of the alley behind the lot provides potential garage access all  along the west property line. Given the conditions present, staff believes the landowners’  problem is not due to circumstances unique to the property.    3. And the variance, if granted, must not alter the essential character of the locality. Given  the approval of other variances in the area to allow structures to be located closer to the  street than the front yard setback allows for secondary front yards, staff believes the  construction of the garage in the proposed location would not alter the essential character  of the locality.    Additionally, staff assesses whether other options are available to meet the applicant’s needs  without requiring a variance, or whether the proposal requests the smallest variance necessary to  meet the applicant’s needs.      While it would necessitate the relocation/removal of an existing shed and impacts to a patio,  constructing the detached garage in the southwest portion of the lot would still provide  access from the alley while avoiding the need for any variances.    Recommendations  Staff recommends denial of the variance to allow an accessory structure to be located closer to the  front setback than the principal structure.    Staff recommends denial of the variance of 14.1 feet off the required 35 feet to a distance of 20.9  feet for a detached garage from the front property line.    Points of Consideration for “Practical Difficulty” Test Met Not Met  Property proposed to be used in a reasonable manner X   Problem due to circumstances unique to the property and not  caused by the landowner   X  If granted, would not alter the essential character of the  locality  X   Are other reasonable options available?  While inconvenient, the proposed garage could be built further to the south, avoiding the front  yard setback and the associated variances.  5      HOUSESHEDHouse & Garage964 s.f.Proposed Garage576 s.f.FRANCE AVE WOODSTOCK AVE30142424 2424 20.920.460DECKN 89°33'55" W 127.46N 00°54'58" E 80.46 S 89°30'06" E 126.21S 00°01'35" W 80.3210196 S.F.0.234 ACRESLOTS 404 & 405CLIENT: Al Woolhouse ConstructionDATE OF SURVEY: 05/04/202311OFSHEETCERTIFICATE OF SURVEY TRUE NORTH SURVEYS, P.A.JOB #: 2023-88FEETSCALE01020NOTE:THIS SURVEY IS INTENDED ONLY FOR THE BENEFIT OF THE PARTY TO WHOMIT WAS PREPARED FOR AND SHOULD NOT BE RELIED UPON BY ANY OTHER PARTY ORFOR ANY OTHER PURPOSE WITHOUT FIRST CONTACTING THE SURVEYOR WHODEVELOPED AND MADE THIS DRAWING, UNAUTHORIZED REPRODUCTION OF THISDOCUMENT IS PROHIBITED.I HEREBY CERTIFY THAT THIS SURVEY, PLAN, OR REPORT WAS PREPARED BY ME OR UNDERMY DIRECT SUPERVISION AND THAT I AM A DULY LICENSED LAND SURVEYOR UNDER THE LAWSOF THE STATE OF MINNESOTA.NAMELIC.

That the requested variance is in harmony with the general purposes and intent of the  Ordinance,   2. That it is consistent with the City’s Comprehensive Plan,   3. And that a property exhibit “practical difficulties” in order for a variance to be granted.   a. Does the property owner propose to use the property in a reasonable manner  not permitted by ordinance?  b. Are there unique circumstances to the property not created by the landowner?  c. Would granting the variance alter the essential character of the locality?    Staff finds that the variance is generally in line with the purpose of the Single‐Family Zoning  District, which is to provide for detached single‐family dwelling units at a low density along with  directly related and complementary uses. The request would not allow for additional unit  density in the neighborhood and the rebuilt garage, as proposed, would not have a negative  impact on the welfare of neighboring properties. In regards to the Shoreland Management  chapter, a purpose is not given but a general policy is provided:    The State Legislature has delegated responsibility to the municipalities of the State to regulate  the subdivision, use and development of the shorelands of public waters and for purposes of  preserving and enhancing the quality of surface waters, preserving the economic and natural  environmental values of shorelands, and providing for the wise utilization of waters and related  land resources. The responsibility is hereby recognized by the City.    Staff does not feel that the proposal as designed would significantly impact the quality of the  surface waters, and do not damage the natural values of the shoreland. The proposal, while  retroactively signing off on the unpermitted expansion into the side yard, does not significantly  alter the footprint of the deck or bring it closer to the lake than it stands today. It also brings  the stairs away from the lake, allowing space for landscaping in the future to enhance the  shorelands further.    In the City’s 2040 Comprehensive Plan, one of the stated objectives of the Housing Chapter is  an objective to support the rehabilitation and reinvestment of the housing stock as structures  continue to age. The deck in its current shape is in very poor condition, and the applicant is  seeking to find a solution that improves the home without overly impacting the shorelands.  From the Water Resources chapter, an objective of Maintain and enhance the integrity and  ecological function of shoreland areas is provided. Per the recommendations/conditions  suggested by Environmental Resources Staff, the belief is that improvements can be made in  regard to the shoreland areas of this property, either through further removal of unpermitted  structures, or through revegetation with native species.     5    In order to constitute practical difficulties:    1. The property owner must propose to use the property in a reasonable manner.  The proposed deck replacement does not expand its existing footprint any closer to the  lake, and attempts to minimize the overall impact (visually and in terms of soil  disturbance) on the shoreland. Therefore, staff believes the variance requests propose  to use the property in a reasonable manner.    2. The landowners’ problem must be due to circumstances unique to the property that  are not caused by the landowner.  While many homes throughout Golden Valley have a portion of their lot that is subject  to a shoreland setback, it is uncommon for entire portions of the structure to have been  built within the shoreland setback, such as in the case of this home and others along  Major Drive. The shoreland setback restricts most of the rear yard and the home is also  built at the 35’ front setback as well. Additionally, the applicant was not aware of the  previous unpermitted improvements to the deck and elsewhere within the shoreland,  and even keeping the deck as it is today would require a new variance approval. Staff  believe the site does exhibit unique circumstances.    3. And the variance, if granted, must not alter the essential character of the locality.  The revised deck would appear largely as it does today, with the exception that there no  longer would be stair access facing towards the lake. Given the relatively minor change  compared to what exists now, staff believes the proposed use would not alter the  essential character of the area.    Additionally, staff assesses whether other options are available to meet the applicant’s needs  without requiring a variance, or whether the proposal represents the smallest variance  necessary to meet the applicant’s needs. As noted above, the deck’s existing footprint was  never permitted by the City, and so the only by‐right option to replace it today would be to  scale it back to the dimensions of the 1992 approval. A variance for the existing deck would  eliminate the new 36 sq.ft. of stairs, but not necessarily provide any reduction in the existing  hardcover.     Recommendation  Based on the factors above, staff recommends approval of the variance request for a waiver  from the shoreland setback requirement to replace the existing deck and add new stairs,  resulting in a setback of 50.9 ft. at its closest point to the ordinary high water level.    Staff recommends this approval be conditioned on either the removal of the existing  boathouse/shed in the rear yard or application for a conditional use permit for the structure.     An additional consideration for a condition would be to provide staff with a landscaping plan to  further improve the shoreland and to screen the deck from the lake.     6    Points of Consideration  Met Not Met  In harmony with the general purposes and intent of the Ordinance X   Consistent with the City’s Comprehensive Plan Conditionally   Property proposed to be used in a reasonable manner X   Problem due to circumstances unique to the property and not  caused by the landowner  X   If granted, would not alter the essential character of the locality X   Are other reasonable options available? No.    April 21, 2023 Thank you so much for considering my request for a variance at 1840 Major Drive North. I’ve lived in Golden Valley for more than 24 years (moved to Loring Lane when I was pregnant with my twins and had a 2-year-old). It has been a wonderful place to raise my kids, who are now young adults. I spent the last 6+ years looking for a new home and finally found the house on Major Drive. I originally asked the agent about the deck, as it’s in very rough shape and needs to be replaced. She said I could replace it “as is” or apply for a variance. In considering replacement I realized that I didn’t have enough room for a table that could fit my three adult children and their significant others (an important consideration for an empty nester!). However, the issues surrounding the deck became much bigger when my engineer found that the house was built on the deck. Shortly thereafter, I learned that the current deck steps were moved without a variance and that any replacement would require my putting the stairs in the front of the deck. As we explored options, we came up with a way to reduce the hardcover, ensure the integrity of the house, and accomplish my main goal of sitting on the deck with all my kids and their families for many years to come! Thank you for your consideration. Jessica Roe 1840 Major Drive, N (612) 810-1807 Majo r D r i v e S w e e n y L a k e# 42379LICENSE NO.Thomas M.
