Chair Perich called the meeting to order at 7 pm. Those present were Members Maxwell, Nelson, Orenstein, Perich and Planning Commission Representative Baker. Also present were Associate Pl�nner/Grant Writer Emily Goellner and Administrative Assistant Lisa Wittman. I. Approval of Minutes— February 28, 2017, Regular Me�ting MOVED by Orenstein, seconded by Maxwell and motion carried 3:to 2 to approve the February 28, 2017, minutes as submitted. Baker and Nelson abstained. II. The Petition(s) are: 6484 Westchester Circle Meredith Freeman, Applicant Request: Waiver from Section 1'1.21, Single Family Zoning District, Subd. 11(A)(1) Front Y�rd Se#back Requirements • 3.23 ft. off of the required 35 ft. to a distance of 31.77 ft. at its closest point to the front yard (north) property line. Purpose: To al{ow fat�the canstruction of a garage addition. Reques#: Wai�rer�rom Section 11.21, Single Family Zoning District, Subd:11(A)(3��a) Side Yard Setback Requirements • 4.37 ft. Qff of the required 15 ft. to a distance of 10.63 ft. at its closest point to the side yard (east) property line. Purpose: To allow for the construction of a garage addition. Goellner referred to a survey of the property and explained the applicant's proposal to construct a third garage stall addition on the northeast side of the existing garage. She stated that the proposed addition would be located 31.77 ft. at its closest point to the front yard property line rather than the required 35 ft. and 10.63 ft. at its closest point to the side yard property line rather than the required 15 ft. Maxwell asked if the applicant has considered moving the proposed addition back 3 ft. to possibly avoid needing a variance. Goellner said she hasn't calculated what the Minutes of the Golden Valley Board of Zoning Appeals April 25, 2017 Page 2 distances would be if the garage addition was moved back 3 ft. However, the proposed garage addition is 11 ft. wide by 22 ft. deep so if the addition were made smaller it might accommodate more storage, but not a car. Baker asked if the back corner of the proposed garage addition meets the setback requirements. Goellner said yes. Maxwell said that is why he thinks that if the proposed addition were pushed further back on the lot the applicant might not need a variance. Meredith Freeman, Applicant, stated that she can't fit two cars in the existing garage so the proposed third stall will allow their two cars to fit and some space for storage. �he stated that she can't move the proposed addition back because there is'a sun porch with windows all along the back, a door would have to be relocated, and th�re is a retaining wall behind the existing garage. She added that the location she is prQpQsing would make the addition cohesive with the existing garage. Nelson asked why two cars don't fit in the existing garage. Freerrtan explained that there are cabinets on the back wall and that a mudroom area inside the house juts into the garage space so car doors can't open if there are �twa �ars in the garage. Orenstein asked the applicant if she has considered removing the cabinets. Freeman said the space would still be too tight for tw� cars. Nelson explained that the Board doesn't typicafly grant front yard variance requests but in this case the existing house is alre�dy in the front setback area so she feels comfortable with the front yard variance request, She referred to the side yard variance request and asked the applican� if just enough width could be added to the existing garage to make it work for#wo cars. Freeman stated if she did that she would have to add a beam at significant cost and she i� trying to be as cost effective as possible. Baker asked about th� slope in°the back yard. Freemen showed the Board some photos and explained how th� back yard slopes downward so building a shed for additional storage won'#work. ' Maxwell asked if there are other unique circumstances in this case. Freeman stated that if she could pushi the.proposed garage addition back on the lot she would but it is not cost effective with the location of the existing sunroom. She added that the house ne� door is approximately 30 ft. away so it won't impact them, and aesthetically the addition won't change the look of the house very much. Nelson said she doesn't understand why the existing garage can't be made slightly wider in order to get a better functioning garage. Freeman said it is not practical, or as cost effective to just make the existing garage wider. Goellner added that the applicant could expand the width of the existing garage 7 ft. without needing a side yard variance. Freeman reiterated that if she just expands the existing garage she would have to put in a beam. She explained that she is not proposing to remove the exterior wall of the existing garage, she is just planning on have an opening between the existing garage and the proposed new garage stall. Minutes of the Golden Valley Board of Zoning Appeals April 25, 2017 Page 3 Perich opened the public hearing. Seeing and hearing no one wishing to comment, Perich closed the public hearing. Baker said he agrees with Nelson that in this case he is not concerned about granting a front yard variance since the existing house is already too close to the front property line. Maxwell said he is uncomfortable granting a front yard variance for a third garage stall. Nelson said she is sympathetic that the applicant can't fit two cars in the exis�ing garage, but she feels there are other options. Perich said he thinks a 7 ft. wide garage addition might look weird and would affect the character of the neighborh�c�od more than a third garage stall. Maxwell said if the garage addition is pushed back further a smaller side yard variance would be needed. He said if there are options that require less t�f a variance he would consider that, but he is not comfortable with this proposal. Baker noted that the applicant bought a house in which th� garage wa5 poorly designed and questioned ifi this is a case of"buyer beware.���lelson agreed and said she has her real estate clients specifically consider the size of the garage in homes they are looking at. Peri�h asked about the size of a typical two-sta11 garage. Goellner said 22 ft. x 22 ft. is a standard size two-stall garage. Maxwell stat�;d that a car isn't 22 feet long and said the length of the proposed additional could be smaller and moved back without losing the sunroom. Goellner said the applicant wr�uld probably still need a variance in that case. Freeman said her concern is making the addition look appropriate for the house. She added that if she moved the garage back three feet she would have to add an additional three feet of driveway. Baker suggested moving th�; mudroom wall back into the house instead of having it bump out into th� garage space as way to make the existing garage more functionaL Freeman said that would eliminate her mudroom and that she would have space for two cars, but wQtald have no storage space. Baker said many homes don't have additional storage space': Neison reiterated that she feels ok about the front yard variance request, but not with what is being proposed for the side yard. She said she would feel differently if the applicant had>a one-stall garage. Freem�n said she understands, but that other homes in the area have three garage stalls so it would not be out of character with the neighborhood. Nelson noted that those other homes may not have needed a variance to build a third garage stall. Perich stated that the Board could vote on the requested variances or table the proposal to allow the applicant to try to come up with a proposal that requires smaller variancss. Baker asked if there is any benefit to tabling this proposal. Goellner stated that if the Board is not willing to grant a variance for a third garage stall it would be better to indicate that now rather than tabling the request. Minutes of the Golden Valley Board of Zoning Appeais April 25, 2017 Page 4 Freeman said she is not thinking about moving the existing sunroom and that the Board is asking her to spend money on things that don't need to be fixed when what she is proposing won't affect anybody. Orenstein said he thinks there are options that haven't been considered. MOVED by Maxwell, seconded by Nelson and motion carried unanimously to approve the variance request for 3.23 ft. off of the required 35 ft. to a distance of 31.77 ft. at its closest point to the front yard (north) property line to allow for the construction of a garage addition. MOVED by Nelson, seconded by Baker and motion carried unanimously#t� deny the variance request for 4.37 ft. off of the required 15 ft. to a distance af'10.63 ft. at its closest point to the side yard (east) property line to allow for the construction of a garage additian.

The applicant is seeking the following variance from City Code: _. . _ _ � _ _ ___ _ _._.. ___... __ ___ _ _ , .__ _ ', Variance Request ' City Code Requirement ' An additional ��_. . _ ..__. __ ._ ..�__.. _ �_.. . .._._. �. __� _� _ � _.._ __._.... two (2) feet in height in Section 11.72, Fences, Subd. 3, Regulations by excess of the maximum four (4)feet in oning District, A, Residential and Multiple ' height permitted for a fence in the front � Dwelling Zoning Districts, 1: Fences in the front yard, totaling a proposed height of six (6) Yard shall not exceed four (4) feet in height. ' feet. Fences in the side and rear yards shall not exceed six (6) feet in height. __ _ _ _ _ . Background • City Code does not permit fences above four feet in front yards in Residential districts to preserve the aesthetics and character of local neighborhoods. • The lot is approximately 17,267 square feet and zoned for R-1 Single-Family Residential use. • The applicant proposes to build a six foot fence in a portion of the front yard to provide a barrier from traffic noise and light. • There is no existing fence in the front yard. • A large tree in the front yard previously provided a barrier from the street, but that tree is no longer present on the property. • The applicant states that the location of their property at the T-intersection of Noble Avenue and Dawnview Terrace creates a high traffic zone, which disturbs the residents. • The applicant states that the property has steep topography that necessitates a fence taller than the permitted four feet to provide an effective barrier from traffic noise and light for their home. • The applicant states that they have opted to pursue a six foot fence rather than using natural vegetation as a buffer due to lack of gardening experience and the cost associated with hiring a landscape designer. Analysis In reviewing this application, staff has maintained the points of examination to the considerations outlined in Minnesota State Statute 462.357, requiring that a property exhibit "practical difficulties" in order for a variance to be granted. To constitute practical difficulties: 1. The property owner must propose to use the property in a reasonable manner The construction of a fence in the front yard constitutes a reasonable use of the property. 2. The landowners' problem must be due to circumstances unique to the property that is not caused by the landowner The traffic volume created by the T-intersection of Dawnview Terrace and Noble Avenue, combined with the slope of the lot, are unique to the property and not caused by the landowner. 3. And the variance, if granted, must not alter the essential character of the locality The proposed fence would alter the essential character of the locality. The presence of a solid six foot fence in the front yard would be inconsistent with the surrounding neighborhood. Nearby properties are not fenced in the front yard at all, so a six foot fence would have a significant visual impact on the neighborhood. Additionally, staff assesses whether other options are available to meet the applicant's need and do not require a variance. Staff finds that other options are available that meet City Code requirements. The applicants could meet their needs with shrubs or another buffer using natural vegetation, which would maintain the essential character of the locality and would not require a variance. Staff finds that the objection stated by the applicant that natural vegetation would be too costly cannot be considered a practical concern for the purposes of this project, as prescribed by State statute. Recommendation Staff recommends denial of the request for a variance of an additional two feet in height in excess of the maximum permitted four feet in height for a fence in the front yard. __ ._____..�__, _ _ __.___ _._ __.__ ______ ___._ _.------ -- .__.___. _ , 2901 2900 29�. 2�0 2907 2900 :450 � �� � Culver Rd �8,5 48�, 4�4� <„s 2841 Subject Property �521 28� 2620: 2817 4830 4800 �760 4750 � 4700 .. �... 2810 280 . . . . 2800 Zg�.�,:.. 274 Dawnview Ter Z � `�" 2'4° a� � Q' � 4821 5801 �.� 4751 2790 W ....Y.[/70 2731' z 2730 2 � O N Z Q zno 2n�`; 0 2�� z»o 'm z�so aa w aaoo e�so Z � a� > 4 - � . 2700 2701 270 Dona Ln � 2�50 2�00 � U � ass� asm a�si 27t}t Ave N s�o � � 2G50 2651 2650 2GS A810 3800 q750 2700 � ..... 2640 2641 2 e — �..�....,.�.��.��m .�,�:�u N,.�.,..T_. _,�,,� .�, �,.., �.�.oW� K,., va.��.,�__„��,, __ ._ ., __��., _.,�� e , .� .e� „�., v..a _ � ,� � �_ ; � �_ ___ � � - - _ _ . _ ... � . _ �_ _ . ; _ _.._ � : - � : _ _- . _. � � � �, , _ � � _,. _. � � , � ,� -. � � � _ ��.� � � - � _ , _ _-. . � _. � � �� x�� � � '��§� � �. � � � ������- �"�- �� 1L ENGII�E D 'acE�RYEYtDRS � � 4 3 � �� A t [5` ,� {/ � . : �l/,.� <�`h _ "_. �"2,. �'f�# € �.. � ` � .. � �(� . •.• � - _. � _ i S�`-��-91@ - , t� ��Q } �Cor,FC►1JRTH 5�'.Lc : �r � � - � ,�, <s �3��� � ��`�� - i� BLDG _� �� �� ,'G �� �I13�iiQUET'Y'E AVE _ , „� �� � g ...�'4*��,«�,��� i �� -` � - .<,6�. ._Mr"`�,ST`A t ��� . - .� �^ �.a'� ��"" z P �. � '`�'b t �.�� . .� '� � P' -.G� �'�'" �, (�=-�.` _ .,. � .-:�: �a y; � ,�r+�"'-.�... ..:�+'^"' .:Ef�.. .'?��- s '� ,�� , �-- ',� ry��� � t:. � '�" '�� __ - �"`'� .. , , ,, � � ' rw���'�,�.0, .

The main reason we are requesting this variance is to give our home and yard a barrier from the traffic noise and the car lights. We don't plan to fence our entire front yard, only the very front section next to Noble Ave. Having this free-standing section of fence will still allow us to feel connected to our neighbors and we won't feel completely "boxed in." A fence would atso also us to have more social events in our front yard (in the past, guests have requested that we socialize in the back yard, because they can't hear over the car traffic in the front). What is unique about your property and how do you feel that it necessitates a variance? We live at the intersection of Dawnview Terrace and Noble Avenue, which creates a high traffic zone. At night, when cars drive down Dawnview, their headlights shine directly into our bedroom. Then the cars accelerate to turn onto Noble and the noise carries right up to our house. Because our house was built on top of a hill, a 4 foat fence wouldn't give us enough barrier from the headlights or the sound ta prevent us from waking up at night. We have also had kids playing at aur house who have dropped balls in our yard, which rolled all the way onto Noble Ave (another reason I prefer to have a fence versus vegetation) Explain how the need far a variance is based on circumstances that are not a result of a landowner action. The large tree that fell over in our front yard was caused by high winds in the middle of winter. This tree had served as aur main barrier from Noble Ave and Dawnview Terrace. Also, the location of our yard is at the intersection of Dawnview Terrace and Noble Avenue, so are affected by the traffic on both Noble and Dawnview. Our house was built on top of a large hill in 1950, so a shorter fence at the front of our yard won't actualty give our house privacy. Explain how,if granted,the proposed variance will not alter the essential character of your neighbarhood and Golden Valley as a whole. Golden Valley residents are excellent stewards of their land. Most of my neighbors spend numerous hours gardening and tending ta their properiy every week in the summer. I am a firm believer in taking good care of our property and making it not only a nice place for my family to live, but a place that my neighbors can feel proud to live by, My hope is that this fence will give us a sound and light barrier, but that it will also add charm and beauty to our property (I think white fences look very clean and elegant and I appreciate seeing them in other residents'yards). If we were granted a variance for a 6 foot fence, we plan ta purchase a nice white,vinyl fence, which I plan to decorate with ffowers in the summer and Christmas lights in the winter. I believe our fence would be a nice addition to the neighborhood and give Dawnview drivers a pleasant view as they turn onto Noble .
