DOUGLAS W. PAGENKOPF, APPLICANT
WHEREAS, at its regular meeting on May 6, 2003 the City Council heard and
considered an appeal from a determination by the Board of Zoning Appeals granting
variances to Applicant Douglas W. Pagenkopf at his residence at 4500 Hampton Road (03-
04-08) as follows:
1. Ten feet off the required 25 feet to a distance of 15 feet at its closest point to
the rear property line from the proposed attached garage and second story expansion.
2. Ten feet off the required 35 feet to a distance of 25 feet at its closest point to
the front yard property line along Major Avenue North for the proposed garage expansion.
WHEREAS, Applicant Douglas W. Pagenkopf has sought a variance of 16 feet off
the required 25 feet to a distance of 9 feet at its closest point to the rear property line from
the proposed garage expansion together with the front yard setback variance.
WHEREAS, the City Council is required by Section 11.90, subd. 4C(2) to make its
findings and determinations with respect to the appeal and serve a written report thereof
upon the appellant by United States mail.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, as follows:
1. That it finds that the unusual and unique characteristics of the property
constitute an undue hardship.

lot and its location having street frontage on nearly three sides.

Appeals granting variances as follows:
a. A variance of 10 feet off the required 25 feet to a distance of 15 feet at
its closest point to the real property line from the proposed attached garage and second
story expansion.
b. A variance of 10 feet off the required 35 feet to a distance of 25 feet at
