I ng the existing home into conformance with side yard building setback r uirements. Olson referred to his memo dated June 20, 2001 and stated that during the construction planning process, a survey was submitted for the property and it was discovered that the existing home does not meet the setback requirements in the front and on the east side. He stated the front is 33.2 feet to the property line, which is 1.8 feet off the required 35 feet and the side is 11.6 feet to the property line, which is 1 foot off the required 12.6 feet. e Cera asked if the applicants are planning to build anything on the side. Olson stated they were going to build a garage addition, but decided to hold of on that and that right now they are doing a lot of interior remodeling and adding a dormer to the side of the home. Cera asked if there were any issues created with the dormer. Olson stated that the dormer would need to be at 11.6 feet. McCracken-Hunt stated that by getting the existing house into conformance, the dormer would then be in conformance. She asked if the applicant would have to pay two fees if they are going to request the garage addition separately. Minutes of the Board of Zoning Appeals June 26, 2001 Page 2 Olson stated that they would have to pay two fees, but that they wanted to sign a hold harmless . agreement to continue working and they couldn't have continued if the garage addition was on their request. Shaffer clarified that the requests for the variances for the garage addition should not be on the agenda. Olson agreed that it should have been removed. McCracken-Hunt asked if the applicant was present. She was not present. Shaffer stated that this is an administrative matter considering the garage variance request had been removed from the agenda. 1540 Ottawa Avenue South (Map 10) (01-6-13) Roger Ost, Applicant ve the requested the required 12.6 MOVED by Shaffer, seconded by Cera and motion carried unanimou 1.8 feet off the required 35 feet front yard setback and the reque feet side yard setback to bring the existing house into conform Request: Waiver from Section 11.21, ) Front Yard Setback . 1 foot off the require at its closest point t South and 9 fee proposed dec Ottawa Aven stance of 34 feet for the existing home rd property line along Ottawa Avenue uired 35 feet to a distance of 26 feet for the t point to the front yard property line along e Purpose: h e into conformance with front yard building setbacks e construction of a new deck onto the front of the existing Request: Section 11.21, Subd. 12 (A) Accessory Buildings off the required 5 feet to a distance of 4 feet for the existing tached garage at its closest point to the south side yard property line and for 8 feet off the required 10 feet to a distance of 2 feet for the existing detached garage at its closest point to the shed.

He stated the request is for a front yard setback variance to build the deck to a distance of 26 feet to the property line along Ottawa Avenue South. He stated that during the application process, a survey was submitted and it was discovered that the existing accessory buildings in the back yard are not conforming. He stated the detached garage is only 4 feet from the side yard property line and is . required to be 5 feet. Also, the shed is only 2 feet from the detached garage and is required to be 10 feet away, so the applicant is requesting variances for these existing conditions as well. Minutes of the Board of Zoning Appeals June 26, 2001 Page 3 . Shaffer asked if the shed being that close to the garage is more of a building code matter and not a zoning code matter. Olson stated that the City Code states that there has to be 10 feet between the structures. Roger Ost, applicant, stated that his wife had just passed away the previous Thursday and that she is the one who wanted the deck and now he would like to have it even more and asked the board to please consider his request.

Hey Memorandum Planning 763-593-8095/763-593-8109 (fax) To: Golden Valley Board of Zoning Appeals From: Dan Olson, City Planner Subject: 2240 Zealand Avenue North (Map 19) (01-7-17) Terrance Curley, Applicant Date: July 18, 2001 Terrance Curley, with property located at 2240 Zealand Avenue North, is requesting a variance from the Residential zoning code (Section 11.21). The applicant has approached the City to construct a dormer with a deck onto the existing home. The construction of the addition requires a variance from the Residential zoning district building requirements. Previously, this property received a variance. In April of 1985, a variance was approved for this property to construct a garage and 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 28.5 feet to the front yard property line along Zealand Avenue and a variance to build the garage addition up to 14.65 feet to the rear yard property line. After receiving the variances, the homeowner did not build the room addition along Zealand Avenue, but did build the garage addition. The current requested variance is from Section 11.21, Subd. 7(A) Front Yard Setback. City Code states the front setback shall be 35 feet from the front yard property line. The variance request is for 6.5 feet off the required 35 feet to a distance of 28.5 feet to the front property line along Zealand Avenue North for the dormer and deck addition. The City's file on this property reveals that a permit was pulled in April of 1964 for the construction of the existing house. No other pertinent information was found in the file.

Curley The Petition is for waiver of Section 3A.06(1) front setback for 6.5 feet off the required 35 feet to a distance of 28.5 feet from Zealand Avenue to the proposed room addition at its closest point and for waiver of Section . ~ - . Board of Zoning Appeals Page 2 Apri 1 9, 1985 3A.06(2) rear setback, for 10.8 feet off the required 25.4 foot rear set- back to a distance of 14.65 feet from the rear (west) lot line to the proposed garage addition at its closest point. The petition was in order. Consent had been obtained from all adjacent properties. No adjacent owners were present. Mr. Curley was present to explain his proposal. This is a corner lot and requires a 35 foot setback on two sides. The front of the house faces Zealand and has a small addition proposed there. The garage addition is on the north side facing 23rd Avenue. The lot line along Zealand curves and the existing house, at its closest point, complies with the 35 foot setback requirement. In doing so, it is set back approximately 10 feet from the front of thEfadjacent home. Because of the curving lot line, the proposed addition facing Zealand would not project further than a line extended from the adjacent home and therefore has minimal if any impact on t.he adjacent home. The depth of the lot in relation to the width~ determines what is considered front or back of a lot as well as side requirements. The proposed garage addition on the 23rd Avenue side projects into the required rear setback even through it appears as a side setback to the adjacent house. A side setback would be 15 feet. A rear setback is 20 percent of the lot depth and requires 25.4 feet. The Board discussed at length the appearance and location of the existing house and the proposed construction. It was noted that for all practical purposes the 15 foot separation normally required fora side setback is maintained at the garage addition and the addition on Zealand does not project beyond the front setback of the adjacent home. Mr. Curley noted that if his lot was an interior lot, he would be in full compliance of required setbacks. Margaret Leppik questioned where Mr. Curley.s mailbox is and if the mailing address and where the house faces had any effect on how the front, back or side of a corner lot is determined. The secretary, Lloyd Becker, reviewed the platting ordinance which defines how the lot width and depth determine the front of a lot irrespective of which street a house on a corner lot faces. Mahlon Swedberg said he had no difficulty with this proposal. He noted the required 35 foot setback on two sides, the unusual curving lot 1 i nes, and the topography that affect thi s proposal. It appears there is no adverse effect on adjacent properties and would be a sub- stantial improvement. Mahlon Swedberg moved to approve the waivers as requested, second by Art Flannagan and upon vote carried unanimously. ~ . wwmci~urn_vll~ Y 7 -1 0-01 HEARING NOTICE Board of Zoning Appeals 2240 Zealand Avenue North Terrence Curlev Terrence Curley, with property located at 2240 Zealand Avenue North, has petitioned the Golden Valley Board of Zoning Appeals for a variance from the Residential zoning district.

The house violates the required 10% lot width setback to the North property line at two spots: (a) the NW comer of the house, and (b) the NW comer of the attached garage. Please see the surveyor's certificate from 1954 on file with the city. . 2. As noted on the surveyor's certificate of 1954, the front of the house is 34.6 ft from the front (East) property line, where the setback is nominally 35 ft. Since these setback violations have been present since the original house was built, they require variances to the current setback requirements. 3. The proposed stairway/landing 'deck' on the South side of the house would extend to within 7' 6" of the South property line. Since the lot width at that point is approximately 55.5 ft, the required 20% setback is 11 ft. The house itself is 11.9 ft from the South property line, so that the original concrete stairway and landing (see attached picture) also violated the setback requirement. The replacement stairway/landing would extend to the front of the house to allow access to the side door from the paved driveway, as well as from the back of the house. Since a stairway is needed for the side door, and since no structure can be built on the south side of the house without violating the setback requirement, a variance is required to replace the stairway and landing. . .

Brief statement of the reasons, necessity, or hardship which provide grounds for the granting of this waiver. The residential property belonging to Jesse and Cheryl Toutges located at: 4015 Wayzata Boulevard, Golden Valley MN 55416 currently has a single stall garage. This is not adequate storage space for two (2) vehicles and miscellaneous items for a single-family dwelling. The property is the only residence with a single stall garage located on Wayzata Boulevard. In addition, parking on the boulevard is not ideal as it is a frontage road with sufficient traffic. Backing out ofthe driveway is at times dangerous, when a vehicle(s) are parked on the boulevard, as it prohibits ideal vision of traffic flow. The expansion of the kitchen area, would exactly follow and flow with the expansion area of the second stall garage. Thank you for your consideration of this request. . . . IN.

June 20, 2001 Planning Department City of Golden Valley 7800 Golden Valley Road Golden Valley, MN 55422 Re: Variance (Ordinance Waiver) from side yard setback for proposed attached garage addition at 1817 Spring Valley Road. To Whom It May Concern, This letter is in regards to our variance request to construct an addition onto an existing single stall attached garage in the side yard setback area. We are requesting a variance of8.3 feet from the side yard setback on the rear corner of the proposed garage, and a variance of 6.5 feet from the side yard setback on the front corner of the proposed garage. The required side yard setback for our property is 13.5 feet as determined by taking 15% of my average lot width of90 feet). Our existing garage setbacks measure 12.2 feet on the rear and 15 feet on the front. Our existing single stall attached garage measures approximately 13 + feet wide by 24 feet deep. The addition . would provide us with a garage width of just over 20 feet, which is the minimum width necessary to store two vehicles. Weare proposing to construct this addition in order to achieve a two-stall covered garage. We have looked into the possibility of constructing a detached garage on the rear of the property to meet the City requirements and to avoid having to apply for a variance. However, after conceptualizing and measuring for feasibility, we have determined that this option would require removing one or more trees on the property. The most beautiful tree in the backyard is the oak. tree that sits close to the house and property line on the north that would have to be removed in order to configure a driveway and 2+ car garage to fit into the rear of the lot. We considered this option as we thought about covered parking space for up to three vehicles. However, after much thought, we believe that this option would be detrimental to the character ofthe lot and the neighborhood, with the loss of this green space and tree cover. Erecting a two-car detached garage and adding an additional 100 feet of driveway and tree removal would completely change the backyard we now enjoy and would be out of character with the immediate neighborhood. I believe that there are circumstances unique to our property in question that are grounds for approval ofa variance. As you can see from our survey, the property is 100 feet wide on the front and 80 feet wide on the back. There is also a maintenance free fence that is located right on the lot line. The shape ( or angle) of the lot causes the rear of our garage to be closer to the side lot line than the front portion. We believe that the shape and angle of the lot as well as avoiding the removal of mature trees is a hardship that is present. There is no other way to maintain the lot's . beauty and to achieve a second covered stall besides the addition we have proposed. I believe our proposal is in the best interests of our property, our neighbors, and the City. We intend to match . . . the proposed addition with what is currently there. We also intend to beautify and accessorize the addition with aesthetically pleasing landscaping. We have spoken with our immediate neighbors to the north who would be impacted by this addition. They have been made aware of our variance request and have not expressed any concerns with it. We believe that our variance request will not adversely affect our neighbor's to any degree, as the proposed addition will not encroach closer than 5.2 feet at the closest point to the lot line. In fact, the addition will be farther away from the lot line as it approaches the front comer of the garage, due to the angle of the lot line on the north side. Even with the proposed addition, there will still be more than enough room to maneuver a lawn mower or other equipment between the fence and the garage. We hope that the Board of Zoning Appeals would kindly consider our variance request as we hope to be able to enhance our property in a legally and aesthetically pleasing manner. We believe that our situation constitutes a clear hardship and the applicable conditions are unique to our property in question. Sincerely, ~ Tim and Susan Johnson 1817 Spring Valley Road .

Pamela and Kip Brettingen, with property located at 1341 Wisconsin Avenue North, are requesting variances from the Residential zoning code (Section 11.21). The applicants had approached the City to construct a deck addition onto the rear of the existing home. This addition conforms with all applicable building setback requirements. However, during the construction planning process, it was discovered that the existing front yard porch and existing home do not meet setback requirements and require variances from the following Residential zoning district building 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 Brettingens will soon begin construction of the remodeling project. . The first requested variance is from Section 11.21, Subd. 7(A) Front Yard Setback. City Code states the front setback shall be 35 feet from the front yard property line. The variance request for the existing porch is for 2 feet off the required 35 feet to a distance of 33 feet at its closest point to the front property line along Wisconsin Avenue North. . The second 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 greater, the side setback shall be 15 feet. The requested variance is for 1.8 feet off the required 15 feet to a distance of 13.2 feet at its closet point to the south side of the existing home. The City's file on this property reveals that a permit was pulled in February of 1959 for the . construction of the existing house. No other pertinent information was found in the file.

At the time, it cost less than $500.00 and he was told it did not require a building permit It is an 8-foot octagon which rests on a larger platform, or deck (see photc$. The proposed addition places it closer than the 10 feet currently required by the building code. It has great sentimental meaning for me, because my son died a few months ago.

Cera asked if the applicants are planning to build anything on the side. Olson stated they were going to build a garage addition, but decided to hold of on that and that right now they are doing a lot of interior remodeling and adding a dormer to the side of the home.

McCracken-Hunt stated that by getting the existing house into conformance, the dormer would then be in conformance. She asked if the applicant would have to pay two fees if they are going to request the garage addition separately. Minytes of the Board of Zoning Appeals June 26, 2001 Page 2 . Olson stated that they would have to pay two fees, but that they wanted to sign a hold harmless agreement to continue working and they couldn't have continued if the garage addition was on their request.

She is proposing to construct a swimming pool north of the existing home. The construction of this pool requires variances from the Zoning Code requirements. Also, as a result of this construction, it was discovered that the existing home, deck, and two sheds on the property do not meet current setback requirements. The pool, deck, sheds, and existing home require variances from the following sections of City Code. · Section 11.21, Subd. 7(A) Front Yard Setback. City Code states the front setback shall be 35 feet from the front yard property line. The variance request for the home is for 10 feet off the required 35 feet to a distance of 25 feet to the front property line along North Lilac Drive. · 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 70 feet or less, the east side setback shall be 20% of the lot width. The requested variance is for .2 feet off the required 11.2 feet to a distance of 11 feet on the east side for the existing home and for 4.2 feet off the required 11.2 feet to a distance of 7 feet on the east side for the existing deck. · Section 11.21, Subd. 12 (A) Accessory Buildings. A swimming pool, in addition to the two sheds on the property, is considered an accessory structure. City Code states that the pool shall be located at least 35 feet from a front yard property line along a right of way. The property owner is requesting a variance for the pool to be located at a distance of 20 feet from the property line along North Lilac Drive. Also, the two sheds on the property do not meet the 5 foot setback requirement from side and rear yard property lines. The shed on the north side of the property is 3 feet from the north property line and the shed south of the proposed pool is 2 feet from the east side yard property line. This petition will be heard at a regular meeting to be held Tuesday, July 24, 2001, beginning at 7:00 P.M. in the Council Chambers, 7800 Golden Valley Road, Golden Valley, Minnesota.

Hey Memorandum Planning 763-593-8095/763-593-8109 (fax) To: Golden Valley Board of Zoning Appeals Dan Olson, City Planner From: Subject: 1340 Douglas Drive (Map 11) (01-7-26) Harrington Properties, Applicant Date: July 18, 2001 Harrington Properties, with property located at 1340 Douglas Drive, is requesting a variance from the Multiple Dwelling zoning code (Section 11.25). The applicant has approached the City to build a 3-story, 55 unit condominium building on this vacant piece of land. The condominium building itself meets building setback requirements, as well as parking space requirements, but a garage building for the development requires a variance from the Zoning Code. Previously, this property received two variances, both of which were for the same request as this current request. In June of 1987 and February of 1998, variances were approved for this property for the proposed garage building. The minutes from those meetings are attached for your review. At that time, the applicant received variances for the garage building to be located 10 feet to the east yard property line. After those variances were approved, the condominium development was not constructed. The property is located near Bassett Creek. Staff has contacted Tom Hovey of the Department of Natural Resources (DNR), and Mr. Hovey indicated he has no comments on the proposed development. The requested variance is from Section 11.25, Subd. 5(A) Minimum Yard Requirements. City Code states that the distance between any part of a dwelling or structure and the east side lot line shall be governed by the following requirement: 25 feet from any property line other than single family residential. The requested variance is for 15 feet off the required 25 feet to a distance of 10 feet at it closest point to the east side yard property line for the proposed parking garage. All buildings that were on the property have been removed. No other pertinent information was found in the file.

The existing railroad is located on an embankment which is 17 feet above the rear yard of the proposed project. This embarikment will screen the proposed garage from the property owners to the east. Locating the garage at the required setback will seriously impair traffic circulation to the garage entrance to the main building. Relocating the garage on the site will be difficult if not impossible due to setback requirements for the flood plain or sideyard setbacks. Relocation of the garage to the south side of the building will result in loss of landscaped yard. Therefore, in order to develop the nunber of units allowed by the zoning code and meet the flood~plain.. setback_-l:"ENuirementf?, the variance is requested. . . :t : II! . . . . . .

The petition was in order. Consent had not been obtained from the adjacent owner of the apartment building to the north. 4.04(1) . Mr. John Johnson, of Merila & Associates, Inc., was present representing the . developer. Also present was Mr. Charles Huntley, who identified himself as an i nves tor. Mr. Johnson explained the project in detail. The proposed apartment structure requires one enclosed parking space for each one bedroom unit and one-half addi- tional space for each additional bedroom. Many of the proposed units are two bedroom and all the enclosed spaces cannot be provided in the apartment building. Therefore, an additional enclosed structure is required and this is proposed on the east end of the property adjacent to the railroad trackage. Mr. Johnson noted that Bassett Creek runs through the property and part of the lot is on the opposite side of Bassett Creek and useab1e only for green area. A substantial portion of the site lies within the floodplain elevation and no structure is permitted in the flood plain. The proposed garage structure is similar to the adjacent apartment to the north. The garage would not be visible from the residential property on the other side of the railroad tracks as the trackage on the berm is 17 feet high. The Board thoroughly discussed the.a1ter- natives of lotating the proposed garage in another area of the site and the feasibility of less covered parking. The consensus was that the proposed location of the garage was most practical adjacent to the railroad right-of- way and it had no impact on surrounding properties. The required enclosed parking should be provided. . . . . ~oard of Zoning Appeals Page 4 June 9, 1987 Larry Smith moved to approve the waiver as requested, noting the topography of the site, the restraints of the flood plain and a portion of the property separated by Bassett Creek limit development.

Robert Strobel Request: Waiver of Section 11.25, Subd. 5(A) Minimum Yard Requirements _ 15 feet off the required 25 feet to a distance of 10 feet for the proposed garage structure to the railroad right-of-way line. Purpose: The applicant is proposing to construct a three-story apartment building on the site and the proposed garages would need a variance. W. Robert Strobel, applicant, and neighbors David and Leigh Comb were in attendance. Grimes explained that Mr. Strobel is proposing to construct a conforming 3-story, 55 unit apartment building and detached nonconforming garages; these garages would be located on the east side of the lot and go into the setback 15 feet. To meet code requirement for garage space these detached garage spaces are needed. Grimes said other options to . meet code would be to reduce the number of dwelling units or to vary the needed garage parking. He said the site does meet outdoor parking needs. Plans were submitted to the DNR but staff has not yet received a response. Shaffer asked if any thought was given to expanding the underground parking. Grimes replied that underground parking is difficult to do for all 75 spaces. Strobel stated the garage setback is a pretty tight curve from west to east and turning into underground parking could be tight. Sell added that this is the best location on the lot as it is only a 20 foot walk to the building and it would be lighted and protected. Grimes asked how the garages would be rented. Strobel said each unit would have one space underground and no decision has been made how the remaining spaces would be allocated. Grimes stated that security is best with underground parking. Swedberg asked why there were no comments from neighbors. Grimes explained the applicant only needs to try to reach neighbors so many times. He said most of the time neighbors are on vacation or live in another city. Grimes said in this case, not all the neighbors were available for comment. Grimes commented that the owner to the north did not question the proposed building, but was concerned with drainage. Swedberg asked about the drainage requirement and Grimes answered that the easement to Bassett Creek must be maintained and a drainage . plan must be approved by the City. . . . \- Minutes of the Board of Zoning Appeals February 24, 1998 Page 3 Swedberg asked about the parking requirement. Grimes responded that Golden Valley's requirement is higher than most cities, and in this case, the applicant is meeting the parking requirement with the requested variance for the detached garages. Sell asked if this was the same request from 10 years ago; Grimes said yes. Sell stated that he and the BZA agreed to this proposal 1 0 years ago and he hasn't changed his mind. Groger asked if any ponding is required. Grimes said the City Engineer must approve the ponding which would probably go in front or on the side in the flood plain area. Groger asked if staff had experience with other sites.that have outside garages. Grimes answered there were others. He said the garages should be restricted to vehicles and not used for storage. Swedberg asked how the owner would fill in the land and Strobel answered with a lot of grading and fill. He said the earth removed from the ponding area may be enough to fill where needed. Groger asked about the exterior of the building. Strobel commented that it would be of a high quality material. Grimes assured the BZA that the Building Board of Review would review the type of construction materials being used for both buildings. He added that the BZA could pass along its concerns for long-term maintenance and appearance of the garage building. Shaffer asked if anyone else wished to speak and no one came forward. MOVED by Sell, seconded by Swedberg and motion carried unanimously to approve the variance as requested. Swedberg observed that the options are to reduce the number of units, vary the number of parking spaces required, or grant the variance as requested. He stated that 10 feet off the railroad r-o-w is not of any significance. III. Other Business , here was n~.. ,th~~~... s iness. , ' '7: . ,\ . :.AdjQ~rnment'\~~ . . 'j .~ .
