Ryan Urness, Applicant, stated that they currently have a one car garage with a flat roof deck space above it. He said their goal is to tear down the existing garage and build a new garage that covers the existing garage space and extends 10 feet further to the north.

He d stated that this request looks very severe in terms of the urb ut when looked at in the aerial photo there is probably 15 to 20 eet actually starts. He said he talked to the City Engineer and he said the streets will be any wider after the street reconstruction project is ar. Hughes asked about the depth is of the existing garage. Grimes said it is 24 feet deep but that the applicant is requesting a 28 foot deep garage. Hughes asked how much of a difference there would be in the variance request if the new garage dimension was shrunk back to 24 feet deep. Grimes said making the proposed garage smaller may increase the setback to seven feet instead of the proposed six feet. . Minutes of the Board of Zoning Appeals July 27, 2004 Page 4 Les Holmberg, Applicant, showed the Board some pictures of his property that showed where the proposed garage would be on the lot. He said his main concern was making sure that the intersection would not become a safety hazard. He said they have an unusual situation with the way the house is sited on the lot. He explained that he looked at the option of putting in a detached garage, which would be half the cost, but he would lose his shed, yard space and bushes if he did that. . Caroline Holmberg, Applicant stated that with the larger sized garage' them to put their boat, cars, motorcycles and bikes inside.

Minutes of the Board of Zoning Appeals July 27, 2004 Page 5 McCarty asked the applicant if he thought about moving the garage to the other side of the house. Les Holmberg said it would be more expensive, it would destroy the uniqueness of the side yard, they would need a new driveway and a 65 year old silver maple tree would have to be removed. Caroline Holmberg added that their existing garage is falling apart and they really need to replace it. McCarty said he doesn't see any other options for this garage proposal. Keysser agreed and said it is an odd and unique lot. .

Hey Planning 763-593-80951 763-593-8109 (fax) Date: August 18, 2004 To: Golden Valley Board of Zoning Appeals From: Adam W. Fulton, Planning Department Intern Subject: 1411 Tyrol Trail (55416) (04-8-17) Ms. Carol Berman, Applicant Ms, Carol Berman owns the property and house at 1411 Tyrol Trail in the South Tyrol neighborhood. She requests three variances from Section 11.21 in order to construct an addition and deck on the North side of the existing house. Ms. Berman intends to expand the kitchen and dining room, and to construct a second story for a master bedroom and bath above the dining room. The existing house appears to be built atop a small hill and features a tuck-under single-car garage. The applicant has explained that due to the size of the single-car garage and the inability to expand the garage, a garden shed is necessary for the storage of miscellaneous lawn and garden equipment. A current survey was not available, so Ms. Berman was required to submit a survey showing the location of all buildings on the property. The survey indicated that the garden shed was currently located partially on the neighboring property. To correct this, the garden shed must be brought entirely onto Ms. Berman's property. When moved, the garden shed will be approximately 10 feet from the existing house. The required 5 foot setback would require that the garden shed be as close as 5 feet from the existing house. This would be out of compliance with the zoning code. The applicant has written a letter explaining the hardships faced by this particular house and property. It is attached. The project requires the following variances from City Code: . Section 11.21, Subd. 10 (A)(2), Rear Yard Setbacks. City Code states the required rear yard setback shall be 20 percent of the lot depth. In this case, the lot depth was 120.17 feet, causing a required setback of 24.03 feet. The requested variance is for 9.9 feet off the required 24.03 feet to a distance of 14.13 feet at its closest point to the rear yard setback along Tyrol Trail. . . Section 11.21, Subd.10(A)(1), Front Yard Setbacks. City Code states the required front yard setback shall be 35 feet from any front property line along a street right-of- way line. The requested variance is for 7.41 feet off the required 35 feet to a distance of 27.59 feet at its closest point to the front yard property line along Alpine Pass. . . . Section 11.21, Subd. 11 (A)(3), Accessory Structure Setbacks. City Code states that accessory structures shall be located no less than 5 feet from the side property line. The requested variance is for 5 feet off the required 5 feet to a distance of 0 feet at its closest point to the side yard property line. In this case the side yard is on the east side of the property. A review of the City file indicates that the house was built in 1952 and that no other additions have been made to the house since that time. . . . City of Golden Valley Board of Zoning Appeals Zoning Code Variance Application Carolyn Berman 1411 Tyrol Trail 7633743493 Attachment for Item 4: Reasons, necessity, or hardship which provide grounds for the granting of this variance. This application is requesting three variances: 1. Front Yard Setback 2. Rear Setback 3. Garden shed Setback Reasons/Hardships 1. Existing unsafe condition exists at the kitchen; exit door cannot open 90 degrees, stair width is less than 36", oven door, refrigerator, stair and exterior door all convene in the same area. The existing walls at both sides of the stair are bearing walls for the existing floor structure. Therefore the only reasonable solution is to rebuild the stair as a straight run. The width of the addition is determined by a reasonable room width after allowing clearance for the stair. This requires a variance for the rear setback. Due to the location of the stair, the proposed addition also requires a variance for the front set back in order to have adequate room in the dining room. 2. Existing small one car garage (11 feet x 17 feet) necessitates a garden shed. The survey discovered the existing garden shed (built by previous owners) was a few feet over the property line. We are also seeking a variance to move the shed to the property line. Given the location of the existing house, it is not possible to move the shed 5' from the property line and still be 10' from the house unless we moved it to the comer next to the pine trees. This most likely would require significant re-grading and the removal of several trees. We feel this would be detrimental to the neighborhood. 3. Irregular shaped lot and comer lot. ( .

Fulton, Planning Department Intern Subject: 3049 Kyle Avenue North, 55422 (04-08-18) Brent & Karen Nelson, Applicants Brent and Karen Nelson own the property and house at 3049 Kyle Avenue North. The applicants propose to construct an addition, including both living and garage space, to the front of their home. The applicants propose the construction of a two-car garage as well as an additional bedroom and bathroom above. The house currently features a tuck-under single-car garage. To apply for this variance, a survey was required. The existing house meets all setback requirements. It is noted on the survey that there is 19.6 feet between the street and the property line. This distance is longer than is typical and may result from the street being aligned to the eastern portion of the right-of-way. The project requires the following variance from City Code: . Section 11.21, Subd. 1 0(A)(1), Front Yard Setbacks. City Code states the required front yard setback shall be 35 feet from any front property line along a street right-of- way line. The requested variance is for 25.38 feet off the required 35 feet to a distance of 9.62 feet at its closest point to the front property line along Kyle Avenue North. A review of the City file indicates that the house was built in 1950 and that no other additions have been made to the house since that time.

Fulton, Planning Department Intern Subject: 5224 Golden Valley Road, 55422 (04"08-19) Ms. Jennifer Nelson, Applicant Ms. Jennifer Nelson owns the property and house at 5224 Golden Valley Road. This project would require two variances from Section 11.21, Subdivision 10. Ms. Nelson proposes to construct an addition to the existing garage, including living space above the garage. To apply for this variance, a survey was required. The existing house is sited on the northwest corner of the lot and meets all setback requirements. There is an existing attached twocargarage. The project requires the following variances from City Code: . Section 11.21, Subd. 10(A)(3)(a), Side Yard Setbacks. City Code states the required side yard setback for lots of 100 feet or greater in width shall be 15 feet. The requested variance is for 7.7 feet off the required 15 feet to a distance of 7.30 feet at its closest point to the side (west) property line. . Section 11.21, Subd. 10(A)(2), Rear Yard Setbacks. City Code states the required rear yard setback shall be 20 percent of the lot depth. The lot depth in this case is 110.49 feet for a rear yard setback of 22.09 feet. The requested variance is for 9.34 feet off the required 22.09 feet to a distance of 12.75 feet at its closest point to the rear (north) yard line. A review of the City file indicates that the house was built in 1941 and that no other additions have been made to the house since that time. . . . } , 5. .

Fulton, Planning Department Intern Subject: 900 Mendelssohn Avenue North, 55427 (04-08-20) Lube-Tech - Mr. Scott Bergman, Applicant Mr. Scott Bergman is a representative for Lube Tech, the owner of the industrial building at 900 Mendelssohn Avenue North. Lube-Tech is a manufacturer and distributor of lubricants with headquarters at 900 Mendelssohn Avenue North. The property at this address features a 82,550 square foot building housing manufacturing facilities, offices, and a distribution facility with multiple loading docks. The company has need for an additional loading dock to accommodate increased sales. The additional loading dock is proposed for the northeast corner of the existing building that would extend into the required side yard setback along the north property line. The proposed loading dock would be a concrete slab approximately 4 feet in height and will extend 50 feet along the northeast side of the existing building. The project requires the following variance from City Code: · Section 11.36 , Subd. 6(C)(2), Side Yard Setback. City Code states that for Industrial Zoning Districts adjoining an Institutional Zoning District, the side setback shall be 50 feet. The requested variance is for 6 feet off the required 50 feet to a distance of 44 feet at its closest point to the side yard (north) property line. A review of the City file indicates that the building was erected in 1957. In 1996 a new steel mezzanine was constructed and in 2000 a variance was granted to allow a minor subdivision of the property when Lube-Tech acquired an adjoining parcel. The variance made a non- conforming use legally non-conforming and allowed the minor subdivision to go forward. In this instance, a parking lot that directly abutted the property line was non-conforming. However, once the adjoining property was acquired, the property lines changed and hence brought this parking lot into conformity with City Code. . 5. .

Planning 763-593-8095/ 763-593-8109 (fax) Date: August 18,2004 To: Golden Valley Board of Zoning Appeals From: Adam W. Fulton, Planning Department Intern Subject: 7101 Glenwood Avenue, 55427 (04-08-21) Mr. John Gentrup, Appli(:ant Mr. John Gentrup owns the property and house at 7101 Glenwood Avenue. He requests a variance from Section 11.21 , Subd. 10, (A)(1 ),in order to construct a deck. Due to the nature of the project, a survey was required. The proposed deck would extend 13 feet into the setback area, reducing it from 35 feet to 22 feet. Mr. Gentrup began the deck without a variance. At the present time the deck is partially completed, but requires a variance prior to the construction of the portion extending into the front setback area. The survey shows that this is an unusual corner lot. The address is for Glenwood, but the lot also abuts Olson Memorial Highway. There is not access to Olson Memorial Highway from Mr. Gentrup's property. Mr. Gentrup has written a letter to the Board explaining the hardships of this particular lot. Please find this letter attached. The project requires a variance from the following City Code: . Section 11.21, Subd.10 (A)(1), Front Yard Setbacks. City Code states the required front yard setback shall be 35 feet from any front property line along a street right-of- way. The requested variance is for 13 feet off the required 35 feet to a distance of 22 feet at its closest point to the front yard setback along Olson Memorial Highway. A review of the City file indicates that the house was built in .1960 and that no other additions have been made to the house since that time. . . . untitled Dear members of the review board, I'm requesting that you to grant a variance to the zoning code, to allow for the 'completion of my deck. when I first began construction of my deck I believed that it was far enough away and well screened from everything it could effect. Later, after the city informed me that I needed a permit to complete my deck I was told that I needed to be 35 feet from Glenwood avenue (the font) and 12.5 feet from the sides of my hous~. Roger Mccabe, the Neighborhood Liason officer, came out and measured and told me I was fine. Then Gary Johnson called me and told me that the City considered Highway 55 a front street also, and that I was required to have a professional survey done to prove that I was 35 feet from the (75 foot) highway 55 right of way as well. AS you can see from the survey, my north and south property lines are not parallel, as I initially believed. If the were parallel I would be well within the 35 foot limit. As it stands my deck encroaches a mere 3 feet onto Highway 55's 75 foot right of way. The 75 foot right of way for state highway 55 coupled with the fact that the city of Golden valley considers my house to be a corner lot, despite the fact that Glenwood does not go through on the north side of highway 55, constitutes a hardship to my fair use of the property. I would be glad to discuss this issue, or provide any further required information, as the Board wishes.

Fulton, Planning Department Intern Subject: 1548 Rhode Island Avenue North, 55427 (04..08..22) Mr. Terry Burns, Applicant Mr. Terry Burns owns the property and house at 1548 Rhode Island Avenue North. He requests a variance from Section 11.21, Subd. 10, (A)(3), in order to re-construct an existing deck. Due to the nature of the project, a survey was required. The proposed deck would extend 9.5 feet into the side setback area, reducing it from 12.5 feet to 3 feet. Mr. Burns began the repair work on the existing deck without a variance. At the present time the previous deck is in various stages of deconstruction. Mr. Burns intends to repair bad or rotten portions of the deck's supporting members, and completely replace the deck's surface. Mr. Burns' lot is aUhe intersection of Rhode Island Avenue N. and Olympia Street. The project requires a variance from the following City Code: . Section 11.21, Subd. 10 (A)(3)(b), Side Yard Setbacks. City Code states the required side yard setback shall be 12.5 feet from any side yard property line for all lots with a width of greater than 65 feet and less than 100 feet. The requested variance is for 9.5 feet off the required 12.5 feet to a distance of 3 feet at its closest point to the side (south) yard setback. A review of the City file indicates that the house was built in 1960. In 1970 Mr. Burns received a variance from the front yard setback for the construction of the existing garage and breezeway. The house was originally constructed without a garage. No other additions have been made to the house since that time. ..~<'J....Q i e 1Yf&a-~ ENGINEERING ..,.....
