Purpose: To allow for a second story addition on the existing.home
Gonzalez referred to a survey of the property and explained that the applicants are
proposing to construct a second story addition on their existing home. She stated that the
existing home requires a variance from the shoreland setbacks because it is closer than
50 feet to the top of the bank of the creek. The applicants also require a side yard
variance because the proposed second story addition would be closer to the side yard
property line than the required 15 feet.

west side yard property line than the existing garage. Gonzalez stated that the addition
would not go any closer to the property line than the existing garage.

To:
Golden Valley Board of Zoning Appeals
From:
Kristin A Gonzalez, Planning Intern
Subject:
322 Hanley Road
David and Amy Kodet, Applicant
Dave and Amy Kodet own the house and property at 322 Hanley Road. The applicant is
requesting a variance from Section 11.21, Subd. 1 0(A)(1), Front Yard Setbacks to allow for
an addition to the front of the home, and another variance from Section 1.1.21, Subd.
10(A)(1), Front Yard Setbacks to construct an open front porch. They also need a variance
from Section 11.21, Subd. 10(3)(d), Side Yard Setback Requirements because the proposed
addition will make the home greater than 40 feet in depth. The home will be 79 feet in depth
therefore, the side yard property line increases by three feet. A survey was required to obtain
information regarding the existing structures on the property.
Mr. and Mrs. Kodet are planning a major remodel of their home which includes new additions
to the home and the removal of the existing garage and family room off the back. On the front
of the home, the applicants would like to construct a one level "bump out" addition to the
proposed great room. There is also a plan for an open front porch along the rest of the front
of the home. In the back, the applicant's plans are for a new attached garage with living
space above it.
Because the home has a depth of more than 40 feet, the home needs to be setback one foot
further from the required side yard setback for every 10 additional feet. The plans for the new
additions would make the home 79 feet in depth and therefore the side yard property line
increases by three feet. The side yard setback for this property is 12.5 and with the additional
3 feet it would bring the required setback to 15.5 feet. The current home sits 15 feet from the
property line.
. The applicant states that their hardship is fact that the homeowners were under the
impressionthat the house was setback 39 feet from the front yard property line. The front
yard line angles and therefore, the home distance from the property line changes from 39
feet at the north end to 37 feet on the south end of the home, where the "bump out" is
proposed. The applicants planned the addition to not go out further thanthe 35 setback, but
due to the change in distance, the addition requires a variance.
/'
The project requires the following variances from the City Code:
~. · Section 11.21, Subd.10(A)(1), Front Yard Setback. City Code states the required
minimum front setback shall be 35 feet from any front property line along a street right-of-
way line. The requested variance is for 2 feet off the required 35 feet to a distance of33
feet at its closest point to the front yard property line.
.
.
. Section 11.21, Subd. 10(A)(1), Front Yard Setback. City Code states the required
minimum frol1t setback shall be 35 feet from any front property line along a street. right-of-
way line. Open front porches, with 110 screens, may be built to within 30 feet of a front
property line along a street right-of~way line. The requested variance is for 1 foot off the
required 30 feet to a distance of 29 feet at its closest point to the front yard property line.
. Section 11.21, Subd. 10(3)(d),Side Yard Setback Requirements. City Code states if a
principal structure is greater than 40 feet in depth along a side yard adjacent to another
property that side yard setback shall increase by one foot for each additional ten.feet of
structure depth or portion thereof. The requested variance is for 0.5 feet off the required
15,5 feet to a distance of 15 feet at its closest point to the side property line.
A review of the City file indicates that the house was built in 1955. The detached garage was
added to the property in 1957. Then in 1990, a porch was constructed.. No other major
additions have been made to the house since that time.

RE: 322 Hanley Rmid - Variance petition
To Whom It May Concern:
I am writing this letter/to express my concern over the proposed addition to the adjacent property
on the south side of my house, especially the variance for the side yard setback. I have not seen
the detailed plans at this point, so I'm not sure ifmy concerns are valid, but I will.be reviewing
the plans on Friday, April 21.
There are several factors that may affect my property, depending on the plans for construction.
My one-story house at 310 Hanley Road, is set up in an unconventional way. My house's main
windows (a bank about 20'wide by 6' high), face south directly to the neighbors (322). While
most homes are set up to face the street or back yard, mine is different. A second story may have
a negative effect on several ofthe.features of my home, as listed:
o The addition will be on the south side of my home, which may reduce light into
my living room through the large windows - mostly in the winter months, when
the sun's trajectory is lower. I don't know if the architect accounted for this in the
plans.
o Having windows on their 2nd story addition, facing north will negate any benefit
of me having a privacy fence between the properties. Those windows will have a )
clear view into my patio area and living room.
o An extended two story addition into their back yard may further reduce the light
into my yard.
The concerns.listed above are contingent upon their plans. If the plans do not affect any of my
concerns, I am not opposed th~ granting the variance. But, I do have an interest in preserving
the features of my home that made me want to purchase it 10 years ago.
A rough drawing of my home's set up is below.

Owners wanted a bay windaw and frant parch to. campliment the neighbarhaad withaut

addi tian and extended porch based an measurements fram the ariginal 1955 prapased
survey which shawe.d a 39' setback to. the existing hame. This design was made in an
effort to. avaid encroaching an the setback minimum yet maximize the space to. allaw far
the design. After recently verifying the setbacks, the city inspectar actually faund the
hame to. be built askew afthe boundary, with the sautheast carner afthe existing hame
less than 39', farcing the need far the variance.
Design af the bump-'aut aids the .awner in lacating an updated kitchen and living roam an
the south-facing side afthe hame. The needed space is also. crucial to. rotating the stairs
perpendicular to. the front daar,allawing for the 2-stary design.
Carefulattentian was paid to. neighbarhaad aesthetics by matching the bump-aut and

April 25, 2006
To:
Golden Valley Board of Zoning Appeals
From:
KristinA Gonzalez, Planning Intern
Subject:
6522 Phoenix St
Joshua Tamminen, Applicant
The applicant states that the hardship is the fact that the garage is undersized. Once the
vehicle enters the garage, only the driver can get out. There is also no door leading into the
home from the existing garage.
The project requires a variance from the following City Code:
Section 11.21, Subd.10 (3)(a), Side Yard Setbacks. City Code states that the
required side yard setback for lots with a width of 100 feet or greater, shall be
15 feet from any side property line. The requested variance is for 9 ft. off the
required 15 ft. to a distance of 6 ft. at its closest point to the side yard property
line.
A review ofthe City file indicatesthatthe house was builtin 1940. In 1988, the homeowners
receive a variance whichbroughtthehome into conformance. No other major additions have
been made to the house since that time.

write their address. City staff will also send a written. notice informing these. property owners ofthe
