MOTION BY:

SECOND BY:

WHEREAS:
WHEREAS:
Daniel Loftus has applied for a variance from Section 5-8-3 of the City Code
and Zoning Ordinance in order to permit the combination of three lots into two
lots in the R-1 (Suburban Residential) District on the property described as
Lots 4 and 5 First Addition to Lakeside Park and Tract A of Registered Land
Survey #161, Scott County, as described on the attached Exhibit A; and
The City Council has reviewed the application for a variance as contained in
Case #97-133 and held hearings thereon on May 4, 1998.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT HEREBY RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE
CITY OF PRIOR LAKE, MINNESOTA, that it hereby adopts the following Findings of Fact
with respect to this request:
FINDINGS
The City Council has considered the effect of the proposed variances upon the health, safety,
and welfare of the community, the existing and anticipated traffic conditions, light and air,
danger of fire, risk to the public safety, the effect on property values in the surrounding area
and the effect of the proposed variances on the Comprehensive Plan.
Because of conditions on the subject property and on the surrounding property, it is possible
to use the subject property in such a way that the proposed variances will not result in the
impairment of an adequate supply of light and air to adjacent properties, unreasonably
increase congestion in the public streets, increase the danger of fire, and danger to the public
safety, unreasonably diminish or impair health, safety, comfort, morals or in any other
respect be contrary to the Zoning Ordinance and Comprehensive Plan.

o
o
The special conditions applying to the subject property are unique to such property, and do
not generally apply to other land in the district in which such land is located. The unique
circumstance applicable to this development is that the lots were originally created in 1923,
prior to the implementation of the Shoreland Ordinance, over which, the applicants had no
control, nor can they change the existing conditions.
Lots 3 and 5 have existing structures upon them. Lot 4 could be developed separately as
existing substandard lots upon the approval of other variances. The applicant has proposed
to combine the lots into two lots, thus reducing the nonconformity.
The granting of the variances are necessary for the preservation and enjoyment of a
substantial property right of the applicant. The variances will not serve merely as a
convenience to the applicants, but is necessary to alleviate demonstrable hardship.
The contents of Planning Case 97-133 are hereby entered into and made a part of the public
record and the record of decision for this case. Pursuant to Section 5-6-8 of the Ordinance
Code this variance will be deemed to be abandoned, and thus will be null and void one (1)
year from the date of approval if the holder of the variances has failed to obtain any
necessary, required or appropriate permits for the completion of contemplated
improvements.
BE IT FURTItER RESOLVED, the City Council of the City of Prior Lake hereby approves the
following variances for the combination of three lots into two lots as indicated in attached
Exhibit A (legal description and survey):
1. An 1,566 square foot variance to permit lot area of 13,434 square feet rather than the
required 15,000 square feet for proposed Parcel A.
2. An 15.19 foot variance to permit a front yard width of 74.81 feet rather than the required 90
feet for proposed Parcel A.
3. A 36.79 foot variance to permit an OHW width of 38.21 feet rather than the required 75 feet
for proposed Parcel B.
