From:
Subject:
510 Valleywood Circle (Map 12) (02-5-20)
Robert Thimmesh, Applicant
Date:
May 22,2002
Robert Thimrnesh, with property located at 510 Valleywood Circle, is requesting a variance
from the Residential zoning code (Section 11.21). The applicant has approached the City to
enclose an existing concrete patio. This construction conforms to building setback
requirements. However, during the construction planning process, a survey was submitted
for the property and it was discovered that the existing home does not meet setback
requirements. City Staff has allowed the applicants to sign off on a "Hold Harmless" form in
order to receive a building permit for the remodeling project. This was done only after the
applicant had submitted the required survey and application materials. The Hold Harmless
form is attached.
· The requested variance is from Section 11.21, Subd. 7(C)(1) Side Yard Setbacks. City
Code states that the distance between any part of a dwelling or structure and the side lot
lines shall be governed by the following requirements: In the case of lots having a width of
100 feet or more, the side yard setback shall be 15 feet. The requested variance is for .4
feet off the required 15 feet to a distance of 14.6 feet at it closest point to the north side
yard property line for the existing home.
The City's file on this property reveals that a permit was pulled in November of 1978 for the
construction of the home. No other pertinent information was found in the file.

Subject:
3142 Quail Avenue North (Map 4) (02-5-21)
Raymond Anderson, Applicant
Date:
May 22, 2002
Raymond Anderson, with property located at 3142 Quail Avenue North, is requesting
variances from the Residential zoning code (Section 11.21). Recently, the applicant was
one of four property owners on Quail Avenue North to apply for a redrawing of lot lines for
their properties. As part of this subdivision process, Mr. Anderson is also required to request
variances from building setback requirements for his existing home. This project requires
variances from the following section of City Code.
· The first requested variance is from Section 11.21, Subd. 7(A) Front Yard Setback.
City Code states that the front yard setback shall be 35 feet from the front yard
property line. The variance request is for .5 feet off the required 35 feet to a distance of
34.5 feet at its closest point to the front yard property line along Quail Avenue North for
the existing home.
· The second requested variance is from Section 11.21, Subd. 7(C)(2) Side Yard
Setbacks. City Code states that the distance between any part of a dwelling or
structure and the side lot lines shall be governed by the following requirements: In the
case of lots having a width greater than 70 and less than 100 feet, the side yard
setback shall be 15% of the lot width. The requested variance is for 5.8 feet off the
required 13.7 feet to a distance of 7.9 feet at it closest point to the north side yard
property line for the existing home.
Previously, this property received variances. In October of 1951, a variance was approved
for this property for an attached garage. The minutes from that meeting are attached for
your review. At that time, the applicant received a variance for the garage to be located 7
feet to the north side yard property line. In August of 1983, a variance was approved for this
property for a front entryway. The minutes from that meeting are attached for your review.
At that time, the applicant received a variance for the entryway to be located 32 feet to the
front yard property line along Quail Avenue North.
.
.
.
On May 7, 2002, four adjacent property owners, including Mr. Anderson, received approval of
their Preliminary Plat to redraw the property lines to correct several building and driveway
encroachments. The staff memo to the Planning Commission is attached for your
information. Because there are new property lines for these lots, our City Attorney has
advised staff that Mr. Anderson's previously granted variances become null and void.
Therefore, he is required to apply for new variances for the existing home. The other three
properties meet building setback requirements based on the new lot lines. Since these
variances were previously granted, staff has waived the normal $50 fee for this variance
request. At this time, Mr. Anderson is not proposing any exterior remodeling to his home.
At this time, the four homeowners have not received approval of a Final Plat for the property.
Staff recommends making a condition of these variances that they only go into effect when
the Final Plat is approved by the City Council.
The City's file on this property reveals that a permit was pulled in September of 1948 for the
construction of the home. No other pertinent information was found in the file.

Golden Valley Planning Commission
From:
Dan Olson, City Planner
Informal Public Hearing on Minor Subdivision of the Lots at 3124,3138,
3142, and 3146 Quail Avenue North - Karen Muchemore, Jay Tirpak,
Raymond Anderson, and Fred Reiter, Applicants
Subject:
Date:
April 2, 2002
Background
Karen Muchemore (3124 Quail), Jay Tirpak (3138 Quail), Raymond Anderson (3142 Quail),
and Fred Reiter (3146 Quail), are requesting that the property lines between their four
properties be redrawn to correct several building and driveway encroachments, and to more
adequately reflect the perceived property lines for each lot.
Qualifications as a Minor Subdivision
The four lot subdivision qualifies as a minor subdivision because the properties are part of an
existing, recorded plat, create no more than four lots, and do not create the need for any
additional public improvements. The applicants have submitted the required information to
the City that allows for the subdivision to be evaluated as a minor subdivision.
Staff Review of the Minor Subdivision
The Woodlawn Park addition was platted in 1947. The building and driveway
encroachments were recently discovered when two of the applicants had property surveys
completed for remodeling projects on their property. It is unclear how the encroachments
occurred. Possibly, the developer of this subdivision decided to revise the property lines
from the approved plat when the homes were built in the late 1940s, but neglected to properly
follow through with the required city subdivision procedures. The City did not required as-
built surveys until about 1980. The new lot lines for this minor subdivision reflect where the
homeowners perceived their lots lines to be.
Since this minor subdivision is located on an existing platted street with access to utilities, the
application is pretty straight forward. The properties do not lie within a floodplain. The City
Engineer, Jeff Oliver, PE has reviewed this minor subdivision and has found it to be
acceptable, with the exception of the need for additional easements to be shown on the Final
Plat (a memo regarding these easements is attached for your review). The site plan
.
submitted by the applicants have all of the required information as stated in City Code
Section 12.50.
Section 12.50, Subd. 3 of the Subdivision Code states that lots in a minor subdivision must
meet the requirements of the appropriate zoning district. In this circumstance, the Residential
zoning district requires that all lots must be 10,000 sq. ft. in area, have at least 80 ft. of width
at the front setback line, and meet building setback requirements. With the exceptions (noted
below) for the frontage at 3138 Quail and building setback requirements for 3142 Quail, these
lots will meet those requirements:
3124 Quail Avenue North:
The home at 3124 Quail was built in 1948. Both the existing home and detached garage at
this property meet building setback requirements from the proposed new property line. The
lot will have 86.03 feet of frontage measured from the minimum required front setback line.
3138 Quail Avenue North:
The home at 3138 Quail was built in 1948. Both the existing home and detached garage at
this property meet building setback requirements from the proposed new property line. The
lot will have 77.2 feet of frontage measured from the minimum required front setback line.
This lot does not meet the minimum required frontage.
. 3142 Quail Avenue North:
The home at 3142 Quail was built in 1948. The existing home does not meet the front yard
setback requirement of 35 feet (it is only 34.5 feet from the property line along Quail Avenue
North) or the north side yard setback requirement of 13.7 feet (it is only 7.9 feet at its closest
point). Although, variances were granted in 1951 and 1983 for these setback requirements
(the minutes from those meetings are attached for your review), our City Attorney, Allen
Barnard, has advised staff that these variances become invalid once the circumstances for
the granting of the variances has changed (in this case, the replatting of the lot). Mr.
Barnard has advised staff to have the property owner at this address go before the Board of
Zoning Appeals to request variances for the existing building after the subdivision has been
approved by the City Council. The lot will have 91.6 feet of frontage measured from the
minimum required front setback line.
3146 Quail Avenue North:
The home at 3146 Quail was built in 1948. The existing home at this property meets building
setback requirements from the proposed new property line. The lot will have 111.8 feet of
frontage measured from the minimum required front setback line.
.
Qualification Governing Approval as a Minor Subdivision
According to Section 12.50 of the City's Subdivision Regulations, the following are the
regulations governing approval of minor subdivisions:
2
.
.
.
1. Minor subdivisions shall be denied if the proposed lots do not meet the requirements
of the appropriate zonina district. In this case, one of the lots does not meet the
requirements for frontage in the Residential zoning district, and another lot does not
meet building setback requirements. Therefore, a variance from this condition must
be approved by the City Council in order for the minor subdivision to be approved.
2. A minor subdivision may be denied if the City Enaineer determines that the lots are
not buildable. In this case, there are already homes on each of the four lots.
3. A minor subdivision may be denied if there are no sewer and water connections
available or if it is determined bv the City Enaineer that an undue strain will be
placed on City utility systems by the addition of new lots. In this case, sewer and
water lines are available to provide service for all of the homes. The existing street
system is more than adequate to provide access to these homes.
4. Approval of the minor subdivision may require the arantina of certain easements to
the City. The final plat would show all necessary easements as required by the City
Engineer.
5. If public aaencies other than the City have iurisdiction of the streets adiacent to the
minor subdivision. the aaencies will be aiven the opportunity to comment. In this
case, no other agencies have any jurisdiction.
6. The City may ask for review of title if reauired bv the City Attornev due to dedication
of certain easement. The City Attorney will determine if such a title review is
necessary prior to approval of the final plat.
7. The minor subdivision may be subiect to park dedication reauirements. The policy
of the City has been that there will be no park dedication required if the new
subdivision does not create any new lots for development. In this case, there will be
no new lots created by the minor subdivision. Therefore, no park dedication will be
recommended.
Variance Criteria from the Subdivision Code
As stated above, the approval of this minor subdivision will require a variance to the
Subdivision Code. The Subdivision Code states that the Council may grant variances as
long as there is a finding that the following conditions are met:
1. There are special circumstances for conditions affecting said property so that the
strict application of the provisions of the Subdivision Code would create an unusual
hardship and deprive the applicant of the reasonable use of his land. Economic
difficulty or inconvenience shall not constitute a hardship situation for the purpose of
this Code.
2. The variance is necessary for the preservation and enjoyment of a substantial
property right of the petitioner.
3. The granting of the variance will not be detrimental to the public welfare or injurious
to other property in the neighborhood in which said property is situated.
3
.
.
.
The Code states that the City shall consider the nature of the proposed use of the land, the
existing use of land in the vicinity, and the number of people who will reside in the
subdivision, and how traffic conditions will be affected by the additional development in the
subdivision. The City may prescribe conditions to the variance. The Planning Commission is
expected to make a recommendation on the variance request.
Recommended Action
The staff recommends approval of the minor subdivision and the variance needed to permit
the non-standard lots. It would seem to be in the best interest of the City to allow this minor
subdivision to eliminate the driveway and building encroachments.
Staff recommends approval of the proposed Minor Subdivision and Subdivision Code
variance with the following conditions:
1. The City Attorney will determine if a title review is necessary prior to approval of the
final plat.
2. Easements be shown on the Final Plat as outlined in the memorandum from Ron
Christenson to Jeff Oliver dated March 28, 2002.
3. The Certificate of Survey submitted by the applicants, dated March 20, 2002, shall
become a part of this approval.

Mr. Anderson explained that they had owned the home for approximately six years.
They have planned extensive upgrading and in doing so wanted to improve the
front entryway. Mr. Anderson said they had considered adding to the side of the
house, however the surveyor found there had been errors made when platting the
original subdivision and the side lot lines cannot be located for his house or
others without extensive, expensive and lengthy proceedings.
The Board discussed the effect on adjacent properties and Art Flannagan noted
the street at this point curves, there is a difference in elevations between
adjacent properties and in his opinion it appeared there would be no adverse
effect on adjacent properties.
Larry Smith noted that the house was approximately 30 years old, that the pro-
posed entry was over the existing footings and well pit below and the proposed
remodel would substantially upgrade the structure.

Dennis and Joy Dienst, with property located at 3235 Kyle Avenue North, are requesting a
variance from the Residential zoning code (Section 11.21). The applicants have approached
the City to build a garage addition onto the side of the existing home. This project requires
variances from the following section of City Code.
. · The requested variance is from Section 11.21, Subd. 7(A) Front Yard Setback. City
Code states that the front yard setback shall be 35 feet from the front yard property line.

. The second requested variance is from Section 11.21, Subd. 12 (A) Accessory
Buildings. City Code states that the detached garage shall be located completely to
the rear of the existing home, and shall be at least 5 feet from any side or rear yard
property line. The property owner is requesting variances for the detached garage to
be built to the north side of the existing home at a distance of 4. 2 feet from the rear
yard property line and 3 feet to the north side yard property line.
According to the applicant, the existing attached garage will be used as storage for a
motorcycle, lawnmower and other similar equipment. According to a database for Hennepin
County, the home was constructed in 1920. No other pertinent information was found in the
file.

Subject:
401 France Avenue North (Map 8) (02-5-25)
Jon and Bernice Swenson, Applicants
Date:
May 22, 2002
Jon and Bernice Swenson, with property located at 401 France Avenue North, are requesting
variances from the Residential zoning code (Section 11.21). The applicants have
approached the City to build a room and deck addition onto the existing home. A variance
was granted in 2001 for a rear yard room addition. Now the applicants have amended their
building plans and would like to request additional variances for their building project.
Also, during the construction planning process, a recent survey was submitted for the
property and it was discovered that the existing home also does not meet setback
requirements. The survey submitted for the 2001 variance request was not very accurate
because we did not require an as-built survey after previous additions to the home. As a
result, it is necessary for the applicant to request some variances for the existing home. This
project requires variances from the following section of City Code.
· The first requested variance is from Section 11.21, Subd. 7{C)(3) Side Yard
Setbacks. City Code states that the distance between any part of a dwelling or
structure and the side lot lines shall be governed by the following requirements: In the
case of lots having a width of 70 feet or less, the south side yard setback shall be 20%
of the lot width. The requested variance is for 9.77 feet off the required 14 feet to a
distance of 4.23 feet at its closest point to the south side property line for the proposed
deck; for 6.3 feet off the required 14 feet to a distance of 7.7 feet at its closest point to
the south side property line for the proposed room addition; and for 1.77 feet off the
required 14 feet to a distance of 12.23 feet at its closest point to the south side
property line for the existing home.
· The second requested variance is from Section 11.21, Subd. 7(B) Rear Yard
Setback. City Code states the required rear setback shall be 20 percent of the lot
depth. Staff has determined that the rear setback to be 25.3 feet from the property line
to a structure. The requested variance is for 9.5 feet off the required 25.3 feet to a
distance of 15.8 feet at its closest point to the rear yard property line for the proposed
room addition.
.
.
.
Previously, this property received variances. In December of 1980, a variance was
approved for this property to construct a room addition to the existing home. The minutes
from that meeting are attached for your review. At that time, the applicant received a
variance to build the room addition up to 7.4 feet to the rear yard property line. The
requirement is for the building to be setback 25.4 feet from the property line. After receiving
the variance, the homeowner did not build the addition.
In June of 2001, variances were approved for this property for the existing home and for a
room addition to the rear of the home. The minutes from that meeting are attached for your
review. At that time, the applicant received a variance for the existing home to be located 9
feet to the north side yard property line (note: a survey for the property dated May 7, 2002
now shows that no variance was necessary for the north side yard). A variance was also
granted for a room addition to be located 18 feet to the rear yard property line. As was
previously stated, the applicants have amended the building plans for the 2001 variance
request.
The City's file on this property reveals that a permit was pulled in March of 1939 for the
construction of the existing house. No other pertinent information was found in the file.

Jon M and Bernice Swenson
401 France Ave North
Golden Valley, 55422
To the Board of Zoning Appeals;
May 7,2002
After receiving a variance last summer to build a studio on the west
end of our house we have tried to re configure the plans. However
in order to have an exterior entrance that is in harmony with the
flow of the rest of the building and lot we need to have a variance
for approximately 2' 6" for the addition and 5'4" for the
deck/landing that the door from the new addition will step out to.
Bernice meets with museum and gallery curators and collectors to
show and discusses her work. It is more professional to have a
direct entrance to the studio than to expect a curator to have to
traverse through a family home; Furthermore when we have to
move supplies, materials, and furniture in and out it is essential that
we have a exterior door that goes directly into the space. By having
the door face east we can minimize the steps up to the space.
The fifteen and more years that we have invested in the south side
garden are evident in the elaborate cut and laid paving stones and
the lush carefully chosen perennial vegetation. An integral part of
this setting is the 14' wide deck that now exists but will be rebuilt in
a new long narrow configuration. In order to use the two different
doors that open onto this area (one into the new addition and one in
the existing house) and be able to use this deck as a seating area it
should be 8' wide. This would leave 4' 10" to the property line
beyond which is a steep drop to the level below. The south
neighbors house is approximately 7' lower than the patio level of our
property; We look out at her garage roof. The garage at this point
has no windows and there is no danger of infringing on her privacy
as this is an out of the way corner that she doesn't use.
Without these variances we will have to throw out all our plans and
began over which will mean that we may not be able to start this
year if at all.
As was stated in the fIrst variance request we have to pay a
considerable expense in studio rent and we think the only way we
can financially afford a studio into the future is by having it as an
extension of our residence.
Thank you for your consideration;
Jon and Bernice Swenson

The Petition is for waiver of Section
3.07 (2)
of the Zoning Code, for rear setback for 7.4 feet
off the required 25.4 feet (20% lot depth) to a.
distance of 18 feet from the rear lot line to the

Mr. Moody was present, the petition was in order, consent had been obtained from
all adjacent properties.
Mr. Moody explained in his petition that they were previous owners of a home at
630 Sunnyridge Lane which was acquired and removed in the HRA area. The previous
home was on three lots and had a three-car garage.
They purchased this smaller home to stay in the area.
Mahlon Swedberg noted the proposed addition puts this home generally in Hne
with adjacent properties, proposes no signiflcant impact on the areat and also
noted the placement of the existing home which requires setback waiver to provide
any constructive additions.
It was moved by Mahlon Swedberg, to approve the waiver as requested, second by
Art Flannagan and upon vote carried.

· 8.5 feet off the required 10.5 feet to a distance of 2 feet for the existing
deck at its closest point to the south side yard property line.
· 3.5 feet off the required 10.5 feet to a distance of 7.5 feet for the proposed
addition at its closest point to the south. side yard property line.
Purpose:
To bring the existing, home into conformance with side yard building setback
requirements and to allow for the construction of an addition to the existing
home.
Request:
Waiver from Section 11.21, Subd. 7 (B) Rear Yard Setbacks
· The requested variance is for 9.6 feet off the required 25.4 feet to a
distance of 15.8 feet for a proposed room addition to the rear year property
line.
Purpose: To allow for the construction of a room addition to the rear of the existing
home.
Olson referred to his memo dated June 20, 2001 and stated this is a request for an addition to the
existing home to allow for an art studio. He stated the property owner had received a variance in
. 1980 to construct a room addition, however, after receiving the variance the hom. eowner did not
build the addition. He stated the existing home does not meet the setbacks. He stated that in
1995 the homeowners did an addition that according to the survey, doesn't seem to conform.
Shaffer asked if the 1995 addition received a bUilding permit. Olson stated that it did and it was
approved to meet the setbacks, but according to the survey it is a foot and a half off. He stated
the survey i$ from 1980 and the applicant probably drew on the existing survey the additions since
1980 and what's being proposed now.
John Swenson, applicant, stated that the survey that shows the 1995 addition is the survey they
received from the building department and the only thing he drew on the survey is the proposed
addition. He stated that both he and his wife are professional artists and they have to have a
studio to do their work in. He stated that right now they are renting space and with their
anticipated retirement they would like to stay in the house they are in and stabilize that expense.
He stated they looked at several different possibilities for this addition and that what they are
proposing is the most usable space for them.
Bernice Swenson, applicant, stated that if they weren't able to add on to the house, they would
have to compromise the existing structure of the house or eliminate bedrooms or garage space
which would affect the value of the home. She discussed her teaching career and stated that this
studio space is a necessity and that it's not for gallery space or for customer sales, it's more office,
work and research related.
. MCCracken-Hunt asked if the City' has looked at how ij meets the ordinance regarding home
occupations. Olson stated ,it's more of a personal space or home office and they won't have

customers or employees so they meet all the regulations and this really isn't considered a home
'Occupation.
Hughes asked why the road in front of the house is not paved and why there is no address on the
house. John Swenson stated they have the house numbers, they just haven't put them on the
house. He stated he didn't know why the road wasn't paved, but that they like that way. Shaffer
told the applicants they are required by city code to have numbers on their house.
Sell asked the applicants if they builtthe deck on the south side of the house. John Swenson
stated he did build the deck in 1985, but didn't ask for a variance or a building permit at the time.
Sell stated that he is concerned about there only being two feet from the existing deck to the
neighbor's property line. John Swenson stated there was a five feet drop from their property to the
neighbor's property and that there is a fence there now.
Hughes asked if under the 20' x 34' ~ddition would be a carport. Swenson stated that it would be
more of a parking spot and that they would drive underneath the addition to get into the garage.
Shaffer discussed the variance given in 1980 and stated he's concerned now that this proposal
goes two feet further out than the original variance. He stated that if the addition went out 18 feet
it would.be more in line with the neighboring home, but he's concerned aboutit being bigger and
being within 7 feet of the property line that it would encroach quite a bit into the whole area.
Hughes stated that he felt that such a large structure so close to the alley would be overbuilding.
Shaffer asked what the setbacks are from an alley. Sell stated there are none and it's assumed
that 20% of the distance between the structure and the back property line was sufficient as far as
the clearance for an alley.
John Swenson stated that in the records it showed that the original variance request was for a 20
x 28 feet addition and asked why that's not okay now. McCracken-Hunt stated that the paperwork
the Board has shows the variance was granted for 18 feet, not 20 feet, from the rear lot line to the
proposed house addition. Swenson stated he would be willing to change his plans to allow for an
18 foot addition instead of the requested 20 feet.
Sell stated he would Ii~e to see a new as-built survey and would also like to see an elevation
showing how it relates to the existing structures and how imposing the new addition would be.
Swenson stated he did submit plans with his variance application. Olson showed the board the
plans the applicant submitted.
Shaffer stated he would be willing to grant the same variance that was granted in 1980 and to not
grant the south side yard variances.
MOVED by Shaffer, seconded by Cera and motion carried unanimously to approve an 18'
variance off the rear yard setback, to approve the variance of 9' to the north side yard setback and
no variances granted to the south side yard.

Shaun Graham, with property located at 6620 Olympia Street, is requesting a variance from
the Residential zoning code (Section 11.21). The applicant has approached the City to build

for 30.1 feet off the required 35 feet to a distance of 4.9 feet at it closest point to the front
yard property line along Hampshire Avenue North for the existing deck; and for 19 feet off
the required 35 feet to a distance of 16 feet at it closest point to the front yard property line
along Hampshire Avenue North for the existing home and for the proposed 2-story room
and garage addition.
. The second requested variance is from Section 11.21, Subd. 7(8) Rear Yard Setback.
City Code states the required rear setback shall be 20 percent of the lot depth. Staff has

closest point to the rear yard property line for the proposed 2-story room and garage

Board of Zonina Appeals
6620 Olympia Street
Shaun Graham. Applicant
Shaun Graham, with property located at 6620 Olympia Street, has
petitioned the Golden Valley Board of Zoning Appeals for variances from
the Residential zoning district. The applicant is proposing to construct a
2-story room and garage addition to the existing home. This addition
requires variances from building setback requirements. In addition, a
survey was submitted for this proposal and it was discovered that the
existing home does not meet building setback requirements. This
construction project requires variances from the following sections of City
Code.
. Section 11.21, Subd. 7(A) Front Yard Setback. City Code
states that the front yard setback shall be 35 feet from the front
yard property line. The variance request is for .2 feet off the
required 35 feet to a distance of 34.8 feet at its closest point to
the front yard property line along Olympia Street for the existing
home; for 30.1 feet off the required 35 feet to a distance of 4.9
feet at it closest point to the front yard property line along
Hampshire Avenue North for the existing deck; and for 19 feet off
the required 35 feet to a distance of 16 feet at it closest point to
the front yard property line along Hampshire Avenue North for the
existing home and for the proposed 2-story room and garage
addition.
. Section 11.21, Subd. 7(B) Rear Yard Setback. City Code states
the required rear setback shall be 20 percent of the lot depth.
Staff has determined that the rear setback to be 28.7 feet from

point to the rear yard property line for the proposed 2-story room
and garage addition.

Frederick Jones and Bonita Yurch, Applicants
Date:
May 22, 2002
Frederick Jones and Bonita Yurch, with property located at 6808 Plymouth Avenue North, are
requesting a variance from the Residential zoning code (Section 11.21). The applicants own
three platted lots: lots 318, 319, and 320 of the Belmont subdivision. According to the
property survey, the existing home sits on lots 318 and 319. Lot 320 is a 50-foot wide
vacant lot. The applicants would like to sell lot 320 so that a new single family home could
be built there. In speaking with our City Attorney, Allen Barnard, he said that two conditions
would need to be met for this to occur: the applicants would have to receive a variance for
the east side of the existing home and the applicants would be required to remove a an
enclosed deck on the west side of the home.
This project requires a variance from the following section of City Code.
· The requested variance is from Section 11.21, Subd. 7(C)(1) Side Yard Setbacks.
City Code states that the distance between any part of a dwelling or structure and the
side lot lines shall be governed by the following requirements: In the case of lots
having a width of 100 feet or more, the side yard setback shall be 15 feet. The
requested variance is for 6.6 feet off the required 15 feet to a distance of 8.4 feet at it
closest point to the east side yard property line for the existing home.
As previously stated, if the BZA approves this variance, the applicant would be required to
remove the attached enclosed deck on the west side of the home. The removal of the deck
would restore a 15 foot building setback on the west side of the home. The removal ofthe
deck should be made a condition of the variance approval.
The City's file on this property reveals that a permit was pulled in March of 1950 for the
construction of the home. No other pertinent information was found in the file.

Robert Venne, Applicant
May 22, 2002
Robert Venne, with property located at 925, 955 and 957 Winnetka Avenue North, is
requesting variances from the Light Industrial zoning code (Section 11.35). The applicant
has approached the City to building additional parking areas on the property. These parking
areas require variance from setback requirements. In addition, a survey was submitted for
the property and it was discovered that the existing buildings also do not meet building
setback requirements. This project requires variances from the following sections of City
Code.
925 Winnetka Avenue North:
· Section 11.35, Subd. 7(C)(3) Side Yard Setbacks. City Code states that the distance
between any part of a structure and the side lot lines shall be governed by the
following requirements: In the case of lots abutting another Light Industrial zoning
district, the north side yard setback shall be 20 feet. The requested variance is for 20
feet off the required 20 feet to a distance of 0 feet at it closest point to the north side
yard property line for the existing building.
· Section 11.35, Subd. 7(A) Parking Lot Setback. City Code states that parking lots
shall be setback 35 feet from the front yard property line. The variance request for the
proposed parking lot is for 33 feet off the required 35 feet to a distance of 2 feet at its
closest point to the front property line along Lewis Road.
955-957 Winnetka Avenue North:
· Section 11.35, Subd. 7 (A) Front Yard Setbacks. City Code states that buildings
shall be setback at least 35 feet from any front yard property line. The requested
variances are for 21 feet off of the required 35 feet to a distance of 14 feet for the
existing building at it closest point to the front yard property line along Winnetka
.
.
.
Avenue North; and for 15 feet off of the required 35 feet to a distance of 20 feet for the
existing building at it closest point to the front yard along 10th Avenue North.
. Section 11.35, Subd. 7(C)(3} Side Yard Setbacks. City Code states that the distance
between any part of a structure and the side lot lines shall be governed by the
following requirements: In the case of lots abutting another Light Industrial zoning
district, the north side yard setback shall be 20 feet. The requested variance is for 20
feet off the required 20 feet to a distance of 0 feet at it closest point to the north side
yard property line for the existing building.
. Section 11.35, Subd. 7{A) Parking Lot Setback. City Code states that parking lots
shall be setback 35 feet from the front yard property line. The variance request for the
proposed parking lot is for 34 feet off the required 35 feet to a distance of 1 foot at its
closest point to the front property line along Lewis Road.
Additional variance:
. Section 11.70, Subd. 7 (F) Loading and Parking Requirements. The requested
variance is to reduce the size of the parking spaces from the required 9 feet in width
and 20 feet in depth to 9 feet in width and 18 feet in depth.
Previous variances:
These properties previously received variances. In November of 1967, a variance was
approved for 955-957 Winnetka Avenue North to reduce the number of required parking
spaces 44 spaces to 25 spaces. The minutes from that meeting are attached for your
review. In December of 1970, a variance was approved for 925 Winnetka Avenue North to
reduce required parking lot setback requirement along Lewis Road from 35 feet to 20 feet.
The minutes from that meeting are attached for your review. Because of the current
variance request and the changes to the parking areas, these variances would no longer be
valid.
Finally, in August of 1973, a variance was denied at 925 Winnetka Avenue North. The
applicant had applied to allow the property to be used for an "automobile diagnostic and
repair shop". The minutes from that meeting are attached for your review.
Review bv Inspections and Enaineerina:
According to City Building Official Gary Johnson, the applicant has submitted a Code
Analysis for the building at 955-957 Winnetka Avenue North. A 2-hour fire wall is required
for buildings that abut one another. The Code Analysis states that the fire wall is in place
between the two buildings. In speaking of this variance request with City Engineer, Jeff
Oliver, he stated that the following conditions should be made a part of any variance
approval:
2
.
.
.
1.
Concrete curb and gutter be installed for the parking areas, as per City Code
Section 11.70, Subd. 7 (C).
A Grading, Drainage, and Erosion Control Permit would be required. If it is found
that land disturbing activities result in more than ~ acre being disturbed, the water
quality requirements of the Bassett Creek Water Management Commission would
need to be met.
2.
The City's file on this property reveals that a permit was pulled in November of 1964 at 925
Winnetka and in 1967 for 955-957 Winnetka for the construction of these buildings. No other
pertinent information was found in the file.

line on Lewis Road.
Present to request the waivers were Mr. Robert Brenny and Mr. Melvin RockIer.
" 'Mr. Brenny and the owner, Mr. Melvin RockIer, explained that the required
~ount of parking space is more than the present operation needs; and even
hough there is space for the parking, they would rather landscape the area-
especially the area along Bassetts Creek.
The Board questioned theappealantand discussed all the requests.
It was noted that the existing building was built before the present code
in effect.
: Board member Silverman moved to accept the waiver of Sections 13.02 and
?05 B as requested, ,on the North side of the existing structure only.
Don Franzen seconded the motion and it carried unanimOUSly.
The Board then discussed the request for a variance in off street parking.
Mr. Brown mov,ed to make it the opinion of the Board that the site has
(adeguate space available for the required rmmber of off street parking spaces,
,and therefore, a waiver is unnecessary. Seconded by Mr. Franzen and carried
,llnanimously.
The Board then discussed the proposed loading dock and also the green
area required along Lewis Road.
, The Board and the appealant agreed that it may be possible to re-design
the" dock and the green area to eliminate the need for a waiver.
Joe Brown moved to defer a decision on the loading dock and the Lewis Road
, landscaped area until the next meeting. It was seconded by LeRoy Anderson,
,': and it carried unanimously .

Robert Venne. Applicant
Robert Venne, with property located at 925, 955 and 957 Winnetka
Avenue North, has petitioned the Golden Valley Board of Zoning
Appeals for variances from the Light Industrial zoning district. The
applicant is proposing to provide new paved parking lots at these

states that the distance between any part of a structure and the
side lot lines shall be governed by the following requirements: In
the case of lots abutting another Light Industrial zoning district,
the north side yard setback shall be 20 feet. The requested
variance is for 20 feet off the required 20 feet to a distance of 0
feet at it closest point to the north side yard property line for the
existing building.
. Section 11.35, Subd. 7{A) Parking Lot Setback. City Code
states that parking lots shall be setback 35 feet from the front yard
property line. The variance request for the proposed parking lot is
for 33 feet off the required 35 feet to a distance of 2 feet at its
closest point to the front property line along Lewis Road.
955-957 Winnetka Avenue North:
. Section 11.35, Subd. 7 (A) Front Yard Setbacks. City Code
states that buildings shall be setback at least 35 feet from any
front yard property line. The requested variances are for 21 feet
off of the required 35 feet to a distance of 14 feet for the existing
building at it closest point to the front yard property line along
Winnetka Avenue North; and for 15 feet off of the required 35 feet
to a distance of 20 feet for the existing building at it closest point
to the front yard along 10th Avenue North.
.
. Section 11.35, Subd. 7(C)(3) Side Yard Setbacks. City Code
states that the distance between any part of a structure and the
side lot lines shall be governed by the following requirements: In
the case of lots abutting another Light Industrial zoning district,
the north side yard setback shall be 20 feet. The requested
variance is for 20 feet off the required 20 feet to a distance of 0
feet at it closest point to the north side yard property line for the
existing building.
. Section 11.35, Subd. 7(A) Parking Lot Setback. City Code
states that parking lots shall be setback 35 feet from the front yard
property line. The variance request for the proposed parking lot is

closest point to the front property line along Lewis Road.
Additional variance:
