Minutes of the Golden Valley Board of Zoning Appeals April 24, 2007 Page 2 . Boudreau-Landis asked if the current homeowner built the front yard deck. Verica Sarajlic, applicant stated that the front yard deck was there when she purchased the home in November 2004. She stated that she would like to have a second garage stall because they have three cars and they currently have to move one car out of the way and park it in the busy street in order to get another car out of the garage. She added that she has no other outside storage so she would like a larger garage to use for storage as well. McCarty asked about the total width of the proposed new garage.

To allow for the construction of a new open front porch addition. Grimes referred to a survey of the property and explained that the applicants would like to build an 8 ft. x 10ft. open front porch that would be located 26 ft. away from the front property line instead of the required 30 ft. He added that the applicants stated hardship is that there was a well located underneath the front steps and that area leaks when it rains. The proposed porch would cover the well area and reduce leaking. . David Gooley, Applicant, stated that there is a glass block in the front steps that leaks. He stated that caulking the area and adding gutters has not helped the situation. Minutes of the Golden Valley Board of Zoning Appeals April 24, 2007 Page 3 . He added that they would like to alleviate this problem and also tie in the proposed front porch addition with the other remodeling they are currently doing to their house. Sell asked about the type of roof the proposed front porch would have. Gooley said he is proposing a hipped roof that will match the existing house. McCarty noted that the survey indicates a different dimension than the roof plan submitted with the application. Gooley clarified that the front porch would project out 8 feet from the front of the house, with the overhang added to that, it would project out e added that the allowed 5 foot open front porch addition would put the edge 0 t at the edge of the front steps so that would not alleviate the problem with k Morrissey quest" she would pouring orch to within 30 feet of the front f would only cover to the edge of the step McCarty asked the applicant if he would be repairing the front outcome of the variance request.

McCarty asked the applicant if he would be amenable to building the front porch 5 feet out from the front of the house which would require a smaller variance. Gooley said he thought that size of porch would not look right and he probably would not build it. . Grimes told the Board that they could grant a variance to allow the applicant to build a front porch that would be 29 ft from the front property line in case he changes his mind. Minutes of the Golden Valley Board of Zoning Appeals April 24, 2007 Page 4 .

Hey Planning 763-593-8095 I 763-593-8109 (fax) Date: May 15, 2007 To: Golden Valley Board of Zoning Appeals Joe Hogeboom, Planning Intern From: Subject: 1316 Tyrol Trail Stephanie Shopa, Applicant Stephanie Shopa is the owner of the property located at 1316 Tyrol Trail. She is proposing to construct a bedroom addition above the existing garage. The current garage encroaches 2.5 ft. into the front yard setback on the south side of the property. The proposed bedroom addition above the garage would also encroach 2.5 ft. into the front yard setback on the south side of the property. According to the applicant's submittal, the hardship with this property is that the topography on the site is such that any other additions to the structure would cut off access to portions ofthe property. Space above the garage will not add to the width or height ofthe existing property. The proposed project requires the following variance from City Code: Section 11.21, Subd. 10(A)(1) Front Yard Setback Requirements. The Zoning Code states that the required minimum front setback shall be 35 feet from any front property line along a street right-of-way line. The variance request is for 2.5 ft. off the required 35 ft. to a distance of 32.5 ft. at its closest point to the front (south) property line to allow for the construction of a bedroom addition over the garage. No previous zoning variance requests have been found for the property. }' . City of Golden Valley Board of Zoning Appeals (BZA) Zoning Code Variance Application 2. 1.

The building is a single-family residence built in the mid 1960's. The proposed addition to expand the bedrooms extends the building 8 feet from the southeast end of the existing building. The addition is to the main level floor only, cantilevering over the existing garage over the existing driveway. The building will not increase in height or width from the existing. The materials and colors of the proposed addition will blend with the existing making the addition seamless and in character with the original design of the building. 4. Upon inspection of the site it will be apparent that other options for this addition are not possible. The only side of the structure that has an area not restricted by setbacks (Northeast) is the side of the building with a very steep hill impinging on the building. There is currently access to the rear (NE) side of the building via a narrow stepped path. Any addition in this direction will cut off this path and make access to the (NE) side of the building impossible. Additionally the(NW) side is steeper yet making it inaccessible. . . . . . o .

Bakken, Applicant From: Subject: Louise E. Bakken is the owner of the property located at 1711 Winnetka Ave N. She is proposing to construct a second garage stall. The new garage stall would encroach 8ft. into the side yard setback on the south side. According to the applicant's submittal, the hardship with this property is that currently only a one stall garage exists. The proposed project requires the following variance from City Code: Section 11.21, Subd. 10(A)(3)(a) Side Yard Setback Requirements. The Zoning Code states that side yard setbacks in the R-1 Zoning District for lots having a width greater than 100 feet shall be 15 feet. The variance request is for 8 ft. off the required 15 ft. to a di.stance of 7 ft. at its closest point to the side (south) property line to allow for the construction ofa garage addition. No previous zoning variance requests were found for this property. City of Golden Valley Board of Zoning Appeals (BZA) Zoning Code Variance Application 1.

She is proposing to construct a shed. The new shed would encroach 14 ft. into the front yard setback on the west side. According to the applicant's submittal, the hardship with this property is that it has been neglected for several years by previous owners and a shed would add to its appearance. Also, due to the irregular shape of this corner lot, placing a shed in an area where no variance is required would not allow for reasonable use of the property. The proposed project requires the following variance from City Code:. Section 11.21, Subd. 11(A)(2) Front Yard Setback Requirements. The Zoning Code states that front yard setbacks for accessory structures in the R-1 Zoning District shall be no less than 35 feet from the front property line along a street right-of-way line. The variance request is for 14 ft. off the required 35 ft. to a distance of 21 ft. at its closest point to the front (west) property line to allow for the construction of a shed.

N., GOLDEN VALLEY, MN Weare . looking to improve the quality and appearance of a property that has been neglected for several years before it went into foreclosure and then "flipped" by a real estate agent. We have an existing fence around the house that is a "hodge-podge" of chain-link, rotted wood and plastic lattice. We are removing all of this and installing to code, a beautiful scalloped cedar wood fence and would like to place a high quality 12 x 16 custom built shed within the boundaries of the newly fenced in area. The existing fenced in area was an "eyesore" of debris and rubble which we have currently cleared out and are trying to preserve what's left ofthe larger, non-diseased maple, crabapple and lilac trees. There is currently several areas of patio and paver stones surrounding the enclosed 3- seaso~orch, which severely limits the space in which we are able to place our proposed shed. \We previously had been shown on our survey where we could place this shed without a variance, but this would cause us to not have reasonable use of our property 1 We would like to request a variance of 14 feet off the required 35 feet to a distance of 21 feet for the proposed shed/accessory building at it's closest point to the north-west rear side property linefThis will enable us to utilize what's left of our irregularly shaped comer lot and still be 35 feet from the street0 We also intend to plant more trees and shrubbery to the rear of the proposed shed to create an additional buffer between it and the neighbor behind us while also allowing ourselves privacy from the very busy and non-private Medicine Lake Road. We will still be keeping within the spirit and intent of the city's zoning laws by having a setback from the fence of at least 5 feet on either side of the proposed shed, while still enabling us to restore what was once a beautiful piece of property before it became neglected.

Planning 763-593-8095 I 763-593-8109 (fax) Date: May 15, 2007 To: Golden Valley Board of Zoning Appeals From: Joe Hogeboom, Planning Intern Subject: 2155 Vale Crest Rd Jonathan and Tara Harris, Applicants Jonathan and Tara Harris are the owners of the property located at 2155 Vale Crest Rd. They are proposing to construct a storage area above the existing garage. The current garage encroaches 4.2 ft. into the front yard setback on the east side of the property. The proposed storage area above the garage would also encroach 4.2 ft. into the front yard setback on the east side of the property. . Also on the property is a shed that is not located completely to the rear of the principal structure. Jonathan and Tara Harris are requesting to bring the existing shed into conformance with accessory structure requirements. According to the applicant's submittal, the hardship with this property is that the home contains no attic or basement storage areas. Space above the garage will add to the overall storage area of the home. The proposed project requires the following variances from City Code: Section 11.21, Subd.10(A)(1) Front Yard Setback Requirements. The Zoning Code states that the required minimum front setback shall be 35 feet from any front property line along a street right-of-way line. The variance request is for 4.20 ft. off the required 35 ft. to a distance of 30.80 ft. at its closest point to the front (east) property line to allow for the construction of a storage area over the garage. Section 11.21, Subd. 11(A)(1) Accessory Structure Requirements. The Zoning Code states that a detached accessory structure shall be located completely to the rear of the principal structure, unless it is built with frost footings. The variance request is to bring the existing shed into conformance with accessory structure requirements. A previous zoning variance request for 3 ft. off the required 35 ft. front setback to a distance of 32 ft. from the front property line to the proposed garage at its closest point was approved on July 10, 1979. However, the garage ended up being built at 30.80 ft. at its closest point to the front property line. . City of Golden Valley Board of Zoning Appeals (BZA) Zoning Code Variance Application 1.
