Prior Lake, MN 55372 Dear Mayor & City Council Members: I am requesting permission, per Article 4-7-4 of the City Code, to construct a pole type building on land presently zoned R-1 but being used for agriculture. The building will be used for machinery and hay storage from adjoining farmland and not intended to house animals. This use is compatible with the surrounding area and not offensive to any other property owners. Sincerely, ~ v- ~<< lJerome A. Miller :/ AGENDA #: PREPARED BY: SUBJECT: DATE: INTRODUCTION: BACKGROUND: STAFF AGENDA REPORT 8B BLAIR TREMERE, ACTING PLANNING DIRECTOR CONSIDER REQUEST BY JEROME MILLER FOR PERMISSION TO CONSTRUCT A POLE BUILDING IN A R-1 DISTRICT SEPTEMBER 19, 1994 The applicant desires to relocate a 3,500 square foot metal pole building from a site in the west portion of the City to Outlot A, Titus Second Addition, which is north of Pike Lake. The City Code, at Section 4-7-4, permits metal pole buildings in the A-1 and C-1 Districts and "only in any other district upon approval by the City Council." The code provides that the Council shall exercise its discretion in determining whether or not a building of this type would be compatible with the surrounding area. The code further provides that, "such structures may be authorized by the Council for use as warehouse, heavy equipment storage, or other uses which would tend to be compatible with that type of structure and in a location where it would not be offensive to other property owners or persons within the City". The applicant has indicated that the building would be used for machinery and hay storage from adjoining farm land and is not intended to house animals. The Planning Commission at its September 1, 1994, approved a yard setback variance and an area variance subject to the following: no animals be housed on the property, the location will be visually inconspicuous, the petitioner met the standards of hardship, and the use of the property is agricultural. The matter before the Council is whether to approve the pole building in the R-1 District. The R-1 District, in this case, is not served by municipal sewer and water. The R-1 zoning was established in the early 1970's when rural platting was permitted by the Prior Lake Code. The character of the area is a mix of active agriculture and single family dwellings. Staff did consider the possibility of processing an application to rezone the property to an A-1 or C-1 status: however, the history of the property and the actual development of some of the land with single family homes diminishes the value of that approach (although Staff will be examining this area as the entire City is evaluated with respect to land use guide plan classifications and zoning classifications. The information presented by the applicant both in support of the requested variances and as part of the request brought before the 4629 Dakota 51. 5.E., Prior Lake, Minnesota 553?.f~1714 / Ph. (612) 447-4230 / Fax (612) 447-4245 AN EQUAL OPPORTUNITY EMPLOYER ALTERNATIVES: RECOMMENDATION: REVIEWED BY: Council, shows that the use of the building would be consistent with the agricultural use of the property. The Planning Commission considered the matters of compatibility and visual impact, particularly with respect to the variance for size since the maximum accessory building area in the R-1 District is 832 square feet. The applicant will be dismantling the building on a site west of County Road 83 and north of County Road 82, and re-assembling it on his property. It is Staff's view that the City Code was written to address situations as this; significantly the code is providing for permission to build a pole building and is not requiring a variance. Thus given the actual site layout and proposed location of the building (with the variances granted by the Planning Commission), the matter of compatibility is addressed. 1 . Approve the request for a 3,500 square foot metal pole building on Outlot A, Titus Second Addition. 2. Approve metal building subject to modifications or conditions as developed by the Council during discussion of the request. 3. Deny the request for specific reasons relative to the City Code criteria of use, compatibility, and location. Alternative 1. Staff finds that the review of the variances by the Planning Commission covere(dJ~e issdes of compatibility and location. ("'1 1 '" 1/ i td!

BLAIR TREMERE, ACTING PLANNING DIRECTOR _YES LNO SEPTEMBER 1, 1994 INTRODUCTION: The Planning DepaItment has received a variance application for Jerome Miller of 15563 Calmut Avenue, Prior Lake. The proposal is to locate a metal pole building on Outlot A, Titus Second Addition as per attached maps. The specific variances requested are as follows: 1. A 70' nOlth and 90' south side yard variance from the 100' property setback requirement for accessory faIm buildings. (City Code Section 5-5-2(A). 2. A 2,668 square foot aI'ea variance from the 832 square foot maximum area requirement for accessory structures within the R -1, Suburban Residential District. (City Code, Section 5-5-2(A)3). * Please Note: The City Code states that pole buildings may be pelmitted in C-l, Conservation and A-I, Agricultural Zoning Districts. The Code specifies that the City Council can approve pole buildings in other districts provided the Council finds it will be compatible with the surrounding area and not offensive to other property owners or persons within the City. Provided the Planning Commission grants the variances for setback and building area, this application will be forwarded to the City Council for their consideration regarding placing a pole building on the R-l, Suburban Residential zoned site. BACKGROUND: The subject site is part of the subdivision of Titus Second Addition which was approved by the City of Prior Lake in 1974. At that time, the City Subdivision and Zoning Codes pennitted rural area subdivisions. Shortly after the plat was approved, the City Ordinances were amended to prohibit rural subdivision of land. In 1977, the entire road within the plat was vacated, via petition of the developer, with the exception of the west approximately 300 feet. Vacation of the only street providing access to lots 1-10, Block 1 and lots 2-12, and Outlot A, Block 2, Titus Second Addition, resulted in vacating the majority of the plat. The applicant is the owner of pan of the vacated plat consisting of 15+/- acres legally described as Lots 7-10, Block 1, Lots 8-12 and Outlot A, Block 2, Titus Second Addition. The property is 4629 Dakota S1. S.E., Prior Lake, Minnesota 55372-1714 / Ph. (612) 447-4230 / Fax (612) 447-4245 AN EQUAL OPPORTUNITY EMPLOYER zoned R -1, Suburban Residential however, it is located in the rural service area and is therefore not served by municipal sewer and water. The R -1, zone in this case, was designated in the early 1970's when rural platting was permitted by Prior Lake Code. Due to the rural service area status of the site, the total residential density is limited to the grant of dwelling unit permits to Lots of record and the 4 dwelling unit per quarter/quarter section requirement of the City Code. The applicant requested and received a variance to allow one dwelling unit to be located on the 15+/- acres, on December 3, 1992. The variance grant was subject to the applicant signing and filing a legal document with Scott County stating that the variance would be valid for a 20 year period from the date of variance approval and that no further dwelling unit permits would be granted until such a time as municipal services were available to the site. DISCUSSION: The purpose of this application is to permit the construction of a metal pole building on Outlot A. The area consists of rural residential lots developed with a mixture of single family homes, hobby farms, a YMCA horseback riding camp and farmsteads. The property to the north is developed with a single family home and small shed, the property to the south is developed with a single family home located approximately 63' from the south property line and a large metal pole building. A barn and farm outbuildings are located directly south of the subject site also. The property to the east, owned by the applicant, (Lots 7-10, Block 1 and 8-12, Block 2), are currently planted with beans. The applicant intends to continue agricultural production on the property to the east of Outlot A and seeks the variances in order to move a pole building onto the site to house farm related equipment. The City Code expressly prohibits moving buildings, other than residential buildings within or into the City limits. The applicant will have to assemble and/or construct the pole building on site to conform with the Code. Agriculture is considered to be a permitted use in the R -1 zone. The proposed building is classified as an accessory farm building within the City Code. The building setbacks for the Outlot are the standard 25' front and rear, and 10' side yard standards. However, the Code specifies that "accessory farm buildings shall not be erected within 100' of a neighboring property. In addition, within the R-1 Zone, the Code states that the maximum size of an accessory structure shall not exceed 832 square feet. In order to construct the building as proposed, setback and building area variances have been requested. ALTERNATIVES: 1. Approve the 70' north and 90' south side yard variances to locate an accessory farm building within 100' of a neighboring property; and 2,668 square foot accessory structure building area variance as requested. 2. Approve a modification of the variances requested requmng the downsizing of the structure and/or relocation of the proposed pole building on site. 3. Deny the variances finding that an alternate location exists on the remaining 15+/- acres where a pole building can be located without setback variances. RECOMMENDATION: Alternative I or 3, as per discussion of the Planning Commission. Staff is not opposed to the grant of minimal setback variances for a pole building on Outlot A, provided that a condition stating no animals may be housed within or about the pole building, be placed on the variance. Likewise, staff would not object to an accessory structure building area variance however, it is suggested that the building size be reduced in order to provide additional separation between neighboring properties. The pole building should be located on the most visually inconspicuous part of the lot and should be screened from adjacent residential properties to the north and south. Variance Hardship Standards: 1. Literal enforcement of the Ordinance would result in undue hardship with respect to the property. The Outlot is a lot of record exceeding the minimum area and size requirements of the Zoning District. However, no building envelope exists to construct an accessory farm building on site (which is a use permitted in the Zoning District), due to the 100' separation standard. The lot size and separation standards are the same in the current Zoning Code as they were in 1973, prior to the platting of the subject site. 2. Such unnecessary hardship results because of circumstances unique to the property. The property was platted under the jurisdiction of the City of Prior Lake. The property has an odd shape and contains a large drainage easement (30') versus the typical 10' easement associated with other lots within the subdivision. 3. The hardship is caused by provisions of the Ordinance and is not the result of actions of persons presently having an interest in the property. The property was platted and Zoned R-l under the jurisdiction of the City of Prior Lake. The current Zoning Standards of the R-l, Suburban Residential Zone are not appropriate for properties not served by municipal services. The area is rural in character as opposed to the higher density permitted in the same R-l Zone, within the Urban Service Area. The hardship is the result of application of urban development standards to a property located in the rural service area. The current R-l zoning classification of the Titus Addition area is inconsistent with the Open Space land use designation of the Year 2000 Comprehensive Plan. This area will be reviewed for possible redesignation and rezoning as part of the preparation of the 2010 Comprehensive Plan Land Use Plan. 4. The variance observes the spirit and intent of this Ordinance, produces substantial justice and is not contrary to the public interest. The Outlot is a lot of record which exceeds lot area and width standards. As such the lot is eligible for a building permit conforming to the use requirements of the R-l Zoning District. There are several sheds, farm and pole buildings located in the immediate vicinity of the subject site. A pole building would not be detrimental to the health, welfare or safety of adjacent properties. Staff is of the opinion that reduction of the size of the building and relocation to a site on the Outlot to increase the separation to neighboring properties would observe the intent of the Ordinance. w U - > a: w' (/) Q. ~ :E w en ~ a:l M en en ... ,- I :.I , .

'(e"S "VA20P2" prANNING REPORT SUBJECT: APPLICANT: SITE ADDRESS: PRESENTER: PUBLIC HEARING: DATE: CONSIDER VARIANCE EXTENSION PHYLLIS MILLER SEE ATTACHED LEGAL DESCRIPTION HORST GRASER, DIRECTOR OF PLANNING YES X NO DECEMBER 3, 1992 HISTORY/BACKGROUND: On September 17, 1992 the City Council granted a variance to William Henning to allow the construction of one additional dwelling unit on his property. The variance requested was from the four per quarter/quarter section requirement of the zoning Ordinance for lands located within the rural service area. See attached planning reports for reference to this item. The City Council granted the density variance subject to findings of fact dated August 17, 1992. The variance to allow one additional structure on the subject site was approved subject to an executed agreement restricting further issuance of building permits on the site until urban services are installed. The agreement must be filed with the Scott County Recorder's Office in order to effect the variance approval. City Attorney, Glenn Kessel drafted the attached agreement setting forth the stipulations of the findings of fact. The purpose of this applicatior. is to vary the one year time limit on variance applications required by section 7.7 of the Prior Lake zoning Ordinance. william Henning sold the property to Jerry Miller after the initial variance hearing. Mr. Miller is willing to sign and record the attached agreement limiting further development on the property, sub~ect to an understanding by the city that the variance will run w1th the land for a period not to exceed twenty years. Staff supports the language provided by Attorney Kessel, in item 3, page 2. However, because the twenty year time frame was not specifically cited in the findings of fact, Attorney Kessel, suggested that a separate variance be filed to clarify the time limit issue. Pending the decision of the Planning commission on this variance, staff will contact Harold Bohlen to determine his interest in obtaining a variance to incorporate a similar clause into the findings of fact for a comparable variance granted for his property, located south of Titus Addition. RECOMMENDATION: The recommendation from staff is to approve the time limit extension to twenty years, as recommended by City Attorney, Glenn Kessel.

DECEMBER 3. 1992 at 7:30 P.M. PURPOSE OF HEARING: To consider a variance application for Phyllis Miller, 15563 Calmut Avenue. SUBJECT SITE LOCATION: Lots 6 - 10, Block 1, Titus 2nd Addition & Lots 7 - 12, Block 2, Titus 2nd Addition. See attached map. REQUESTED ACTION: The applicant requests that the Planning commission grant a variance to the one year time limit placed on a previously approved variance for william Henninq. William Henning was granted a variance on August 17( 1992 which will allow for the construct10n of one new single family home on the subject site( indicated upon the attached map. A varlance, according to Prior Lake City Code, expires after one year if construction has not begun. Mr. Henning sold the property to Phyllis Miller who is the current applicant. It is her intent to build a new single family home at some point in the future. However, it is likely that the home would not be built by August of 1993. Therefore, the applicant requests a time limit extension on the variance originally approved for Mr. Henning. The proposed extension period would allow the variance to be valid for a period not to exceed 20 years. If you desire to be heard in reference to this matter, you should attend this meeting. oral and writt9n comments will be accepted ny the city council.

The planning Commission considered the variance request to allow the applicant to construct a single family home on the subject site. The specific variance requested is from city Code section 5-4-1(N), which restricts ho~sing density in the "Agricultural conservation Districts located in the rural service areas defined in the Prior Lake c...,...,.rehensive Plan, to four (4) dwellings per eacn quarter/quarter section." See attached Planning Report and related materials for reference to the specific application. The planning Commission minutes dated July 16, 1992 are also attached. The Planning commission tailed to reach a majority vote on this issue, therefore the split decision renders the application denied, due to lack of a majority to pass the variance. The applicant requested per letter dated July 22, 1992 that the decision of the Planning commission be appealed to the city Council. The City Council amended the Prior Lake comprehensive Plan on December 16, 1991, to add policies to the Transportation Chapter. The purpose of those amendments was to bring the city C,...,_,.t',rehensive plan into compliance with the Metropolitan Council's, Bloomington Ferry Bridge policies. The recent amendment is pertinent to this application because the City agreed to restrict rural area develo~ment to four units per quarter/quarter section for lands located east of C.S.A.H. 18.

(612) 4474230 I Fax (612) 4474245 AN EQUAL oPPORTUNITY EMPLOVER DISCUSSION: AL.L6I\NATIVES: The two Planning Commission members who voted for the variance application indicated that they felt that the proposal would be consistent with the development of Titus First Addition and land development within the rural service area of Shakopee. However, it should be noted that Titus First Addition is no longer a type of development that is permitted by current zoning and .Ubdivision controls. The rationale that density variances shouid be granted adjacent to rural subdivisions could create a precedent for other such properties. For example, Howard Lake Estates, Maple Hill and Eagle Ridge Acres are all rural subdivisions. If it is the direction of the Council to allow density greater than four units per quarter/quarter section, an amendment to the zoning code and comprehensive plan should be made to allow that type of land use devel~ _ent. A variance application should not te used to establish policy, but to grant relief for setback hardships, identified by the ordinance. variance applications must be considered in terms of the hardship criteria outlined in the zoning ordinance. The applicant can continue to use the land as has been done in the past. Rationale for granting a variance must reflect the hardship criteria and cannot solely be based on economic consideration. The Council should note that the Planning commission has denied two previous variances for DuWade Harris of Howard Lake Estates for a similar request. In addition, staff has met with Mr. Harold Bohlen, owner of land south of Titus First Addition, who seeks a similar proposal, to increase the densitI of the rural service area to allow resident al building sites to be sold in an area that is currently at maximum residential density. Mr. Bohlen will be in attendance at the meeting to listen to the discussion on the Henning application. 1. Uphold the decision of the Planning Commission to deny the variance application. 2. Table the issue for specific reasons. 3. Approve the variance application by finding that all of the hardship criteria outlined by the zoning ordinance are met through the application. 2 -,-~,~~~~~_~_~ct!"'-"'F~_~~<lI''''''''':''''';''~":'--14--*'~~~'~ ..' -;'l~.-:::::_,~..ialIP.'-~"'-' - _ ___--.::~':'..:-r'"r").'

The ap~lication requests a variance from Section 5-4-1(N) of the Pr10r Lake City Code which restricts housing density in the "Agricultural Cons~rvation Districts located in the rural service areas defined in the Prior Lake Comprehensive Plan, to four (4) dwellinqa ~.~r each quarter/quarter .ection." See attached excerpt from the City Code for reference to this provision. The proposal is to construct a single family home on the aubject site that is outlined on the attached map. The site is currently vacant and has been used for agricultural purposes. PREVIOUS PROPOSALS: The plat of Titus 2nd Addition has a long and complicated history which began in 1974, when the plat was approved by the City of priot. Lake and filed with Scott County. In April of 1977, the City Council approved a petition from the applicant, for the vacation of part of Foothill Trail that extended east of Lot 13, Block 2, Titus 2nd Addition, to the east end of the plat. The majority of the lots in the plat, have no access to a public road, as a result of the 1977 vacation. In 1980, the Scott County Assessor's Office was requested to tax the property adjacent to the vacated street at an ayricu1tura1 rather than residential rate. The property has been used for agricultural and open space since that time. In 1986, nine years after Foothill Trail had been vacated ( the applicant requested that the City rededicate the portAon of Foothill Trail that had been previously vacated and issue building permits for Lots 1 - 10 Block 1 and 2 -12, Block 2, Titus 2nd Addition. The City councIl denied the request for rededication and subsequent building permits, based upon the fact that the Zoning Ordinance and comprehensive Plan allow a maximum density of 4 dwelling units per quarter/quarter section in the rural service area, of which the subject site is a part. The City Council resolved that "a portion of the plat of Titus 2nd 4629 Dakota St. S.E.. Prior Lake. Minnesota 55372 I Ph. (612) 4474230 I Fax (612) 447.4245 AN EQUAL OPPORTUNITY EMPlDYER Addition is hereby vacated with respect to the following described property Lots 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, ~, and 10, Block One, Titus 2nd Addition and Lost 2, 3( 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, and 12, dnd Outlot A, block Two, Tltus 2nd Addition, Scott County, Minneo,sota. " Sec attached Resolution 87-48 for reference to the Council action. The matter was ultimately reviewed by the Court of Appeals, which upheld the position of the city: "Henning was denied buildinq permits because hi~ lots did not have acoess to public roads and did not comply with the 1975 zoning amendmont to th$ zoning ortUnance. Thus, it was reasonable tor Prior lake tc deny the building per.mit. requested by Henning." The Decision ot th. Court in the matter was stated: "Upon rllview of the city council's records and decision, we hold that Prior Lake had a reasonable basis for requiring a new application under Minn. Stat. 462.358, subd. 3c, and for declining to issue the building permits." See attached document #C4-83-l704 for further reference to this matter. EXISTING CONDITIONS: The sUbject slte 1S located in the NW 1/4 of the NW 1/4 of section 23. The quarter/quarter section contains part of the plats of Titus 1st and ~nd Additions. Each plat was subdivided at a time when the zoning Ordinanc~ allowed small lot platting in 'the agricultural areas. However, the Zoning Ordinance and comprehensive Plan were amended to the current 4 units per quarter/quarter section density formula. Each lot of record is subject to a building perait. Due to the grandfather status of Lots 11 - 12, Block 1 and Lots 1, 13 - 14 Block 2, Titus 2nd Addition and all of the lots in Titus 1st Addition, the density in the NW 1/4 of the NW 1/4 of section 23 will be 11 units. The applicant requests that the density be increased from 11 to 1~ units, in th~s quarter/quarter section, which would allow the construction ot one home upon the subject site. PLANNING CONSIDERATIONS: There have been two previous applications to increase density within the Rural Service Area, both of which have been denied. The Planning Commission determined in 1987, that DuWade Harie of 15220 Howard Lake Road, failed to demonstrate that hardship existed to grant a variunce to increase density and that the request ~as inconsistent with the Comprehensive Plan. A si~ilar finding was made for a separate property owned by Mr. Harris in 1980. The two previous applications demonstrate a clear precedence for denial of applications that seek to increase residential density within the rural service arqa. The City Council advocateJ in their 1992 Retreat the idea to furt~er limit development of the rural area and instructed staff to include the provision to allow only 1 unit per quarter/quarter section, within the next comprehensive Plan Draft. Staff has incorporated the language into the proposed 2010 Comprehensive Plan, howQver, there has been no formal review of ... ...'......L . .,. ._." . ..." ...",.'

The recent Council discussions, explicit pOlicies and requirements of the current Comprehensive Plan and Zoning Ordinance, past precedent and Planning commission findings related to the DuWade Haris proposals to increase density in the Rural Service Area, coupled wIth the the findings of Resolution 87-48 and the Appeals Court are the basis for the staff recommendation to deny the application to increase the density of the NW 1/4 of the NW 1/4 of Section 23. RECOMMENDATION: ~ne recommenaation from ataff ia to dany the variance application on the baaia that the request is inconsistent with the zoning Ordinance and comprehensive Plan. Li~eral enforcement of the Ordinance would not result in undue hardship. The property can continue to be used for the agricultural purposes that havo occurred on the property in the past. The hardship in this case is not caused by the Ordinance nor the City of Prior Lake but is a direct result of actions proposed by the applicant. The variance would not observe the spirit and intent of the Ordinance and is in fact, in direct conflict with the objectives of the Zoning Ordinance and Comprehensive Plan. Approval of this variance could potentially establish a precedent which would undermine the intent of the Rural Service Area policies. Rural axea development objectives seek to protect existing agricultural investments until su~h a time as public utilities may be ex~ended and there is a need for additional urban development. The City currently has hundreds of acres of R-1 Zoned Land within the MUSA boundary which are available for urban development. The subject site is located outside of the Year 2000 Urban Service Area and as such, the residential density should be restricted until such a time as municipal utilities are extended to the site, in a planned manner, consistent with Objectives of the City of Prior Lake and Metropolitan Council. \ .\.~ ""', ,-~,' / '; :..",~'::';;~d;~~~~ltp';l~~~:~~~,~-.ll" '~:;'-"~.?~,:,",.J 'J~~,n.:"~'~\"~'d"~ "VA20PN" NOTICE OF HEARING FOR VAR.L~CE You are hereby notified that a hearing will be held baY the Planninq Commission in the Prior Lake Council Chambers t 4629 Dakota street S.E. on: THURSDAY.
