The applicant proposes to construct a 34 foot by 24 foot three car garage as per attached site plan. The site currently does not have a garage on the site and the following variances are requested in order to construct the improvements as proposed: 1. 4' west side yard variance from the 10' setback requirement. 2. 4' rear yard variance from the 10' setback requirement for detached structures. 3. 13.6% impervious surface variance from the 30% impervious surface requirement of the Shoreland District. fREVIOUs...PROPOSALS: There are no previous proposals on file for the subject site. PHYSIOGRAPHY: The site is relatively flat and slopes gently from the street to the rear of the site. ADJACENT lTSES.: The adjacent properties are mostly developed with single family homes. This neighborhood was constructed in the 1950s and 60s and has seen numerous improvements since that time. EXISTING ~O~ITIONS: The site plan indicates the locations of the existing structure and proposed three-car garage. The subject site is 70 feet wide and 150 feet long, containing 10,500 square feet. The existing home is located 10' from the east side property line and 14' from the west side property line. In addition, the home is virtually centered on the property, 60' from the front property line and 64' from the rear property line, A building permit was issued May 20, 1993 for a detached garage, but was delayed once the applicant decided to encroach on the 10' rear and side yard setbacks. PRECEDENCE: Staff researched and found that five variance fIles exist for the twenty-one lots located in this area of Colorado and Pleasant Streets. The attached map indicates the lots that have received 4629 Dakota 51. 5,E" Prior Lake, Minnesota 55372 / Ph. (612) 447-4230 / Fax (612) 447-4245 AN EQUAL OPPORTUNITY EMPlDYER variances. Of the five variances granted, 2 lots received one variance, 1 lot received two variances, and 1 lot received two variances in two separate files. 4 of these variances were for side yard setbacks ranging from l' to 5'. One of these variances was for a 5' front yard setback, and one was for an area variance of 1,000 square feet. Three of the five variances were granted prior to the 1987 adoption of the Shoreland Ordinance therefore, lot area and impervious surface coverage were not considered. While the depth of most of these lots would enable the lots to meet the lot area requirements, the widths are not compliant with Prior Lake zoning standards. While every variance application is judged on its own merits, there is a similar case which was found in the past variance files. File number VA 80-12 was a request for a three foot side yard variance for construction of a two-car garage. The subject site had 75' of width and the applicant was proposing to add a 24' wide garage. Staff's recommendation was to deny the application due to the fact that there was no precedence in the neighborhood and no unusual site characteristics. The Planning Commission compromised in that the garage was scaled back and a one foot variance was approved. This application merits a similar review due to the fact that the lot is of substandard width and a garage is being proposed encroaching on the side yard setback. NETGllBORHOOD ISSUESIIMPACT/CONCERNS.: This is a well established neighborhood with most of the structures meeting the requirements of the Zoning Ordinance, even though most of the lots are substandard in width. After reviewing the site plan, it appears that all development options have not been evaluated. The substandard width may warrant the side yard setback variance, but the rear yard variance may have an adverse impact upon the adjacent area. In addition, it should be noted that the applicant removed an existing garage from the site before consulting with City staff about future development options. Commonly, the absence of a garage on a single family home site has proved to be a sufficient argument to grant a variance for a minimal garage. But, in this case the applicant is requesting a garage that is unreasonable for the size of the property. A reduction in size to 24 feet by 24 feet would allow a reasonable use of the property in a manner consistent with the area and observe the precedence established in the area. ALTERNATIVES: 1. Deny the application based upon findings and facts relative to the hardship criteria of the Zoning Ordinance, inconsistency with precedent or other purposes related to the Zoning Code. 2. Table or continue the variance for specific reasons. 3. Approve the application as submitted. The applicant proposes to construct a three-car garage located 6' from the side property line and 6' from the rear property line. This would require a side yard variance of 4' from the 10' requirement and a 4' rear yard variance from the 10' requirement for detached structures. In addition, the proposal will require a 13.6% impervious surface variance from the 30% requirement of the Shoreland District. HARDSHIP FINDINGS: 1. Literal enforcement of the Ordinance would result in undue hardship with respect to the property. This criteria has not been satisfied due to the fact that all development options have not been evaluated. By enforcing the Ordinance, there is still sufficient area to construct a two-car garage. 2. Such unnecessary hardship results because of circumstances unique to the property. The site is relatively flat and there are no topographic constraints which require the placement of the garage in the proposed location. 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 hardship has been created by the applicant by removing an existing garage before consulting with City staff about future development constraints and due to the large size of the garage proposed. A three-car versus a two-car 24 foot by 24 foot standard. 4. The variance observes the spirit and intent of this Ordinance, produces substantial justice, and is not contrary to the public interest. The variance request may be contrary to the public interest by encroaching on the rear setback and increasing the impervious surface and related stormwater runoff to Upper Prior Lake. The Ordinance does not preclude the construction of a two-car garage on site. The application must consider the substandard width and other constraints associated with the existing home location. RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends Alternative number 1 due to the lack of demonstrated hardship under the criteria stated in the Zoning Ordinance. Staff would not object to granting a 6.5% impervious surface variance so that a 24 foot by 24 foot garage may be constructed within the required setbacks of 10 feet on the west and south sides of the lot. fftt~T~Ti>@lJ~ ~lNDEPARTMENT OF NATURAL RESOURCES METRO WATERS - 1200 WARNER ROAD, ST. PAUL, MN 55106 PHONE NO. 772-7910 FilENO. August 13, 1993 Ms. Deb Garross City of Prior Lake 4629 Dakota Street South East Prior Lake, Minnesota 55372 RE: KALAL VARIANCE APPLICATION, 4119 COLORADO STREET Dear Ms. Garross: I have received the materials submitted relative to the request for a side yard, rear yard, and impervious surface variance at 4119 Colorado Street. The Department of Natural Resources is opposed to the variances as requested. It is unlikely the applicant can meet the statutory hardship requirement. If the proposal were reduced to a double garage (roughly 24'x24'), the side yard variance could be el iminated, and the impervious coverage greatly reduced. In addition, a double garage could be located 4' closer to the house without interfering with the existing tree. This would eliminate the rear yard setback variance. I have enclosed a modified drawing which I encourage the City to consider. I believe it represents the least-impact alternative. It eliminates two of the three variance requests, and greatly reduces the third (impervious coverage). Unless the applicant can demonstrate hardship, I don't believe this variance can be approved. I trust the City will consider and discuss my suggested alternative. As always, I appreciate the opportunity to review and comment. Please forward the results of the outcome of the hearing on this matter. 1f' cerely, J,' ~ P t LYn~ Area Hydrologist AN EQUAL OPPORTUNITY EMPLOYER June 28, 1993 To whom it may concern City of Prior Lake In referance to variance requested by: W i I I i am Ka I a 1 4119 Colorado Street SE Prior Lake, Mn.

SIGN ORDINANCE WORKSHOP Stephen Grittman of Northwest Associated Consultants, Inc., gave a summary on sign verbage, regulations, and importance to the community as a whole. More signs are not necessarily merrier and clutter looses its effectiveness. Good communications is the objective and regulations protects as well as limits. All of the businesses would be uniform in signage. Input from the Commissioners would be welcome to incorporate into the sign ordinance. Special events signage should have lesser restrictions. Health, safety, and welfare is used for rational. Comments from the Commissioners were on: billboards not allowed, filing fees for temporary signs, over regulation encroaches on somebody's freedom, signs should not be in the median of highways, difficulty of enforcement, and what are other communities doing. Associate Planner James Hayes read into the record the agenda of the Minnesota Valley Transit Authority, meeting of August 16, 1993, outlining MTC's signage program. This agreement must be reviewed and approved by City Council if the City of Prior Lake is entering into the agreement. Mr. Grittman stated that possibly a draft of the sign ordinance would be available the middle of September. M V - WILLIAM KALAL - VARIANCE William Kalal-4119 Colorado Street, had removed his single garage and applied for a building permit for a 34 X 24 foot garage, it was determined that he was too close to the property and would need a variance. Associate Planner James Hayes, presented the information as per memo of August 19, 1993. The request is for a 4 foot west sideyard variance from the 10 foot setback requirement, a 4 foot rearyard variance from the 10 foot setback requirement for detached structures, and a 13.6% impervious surface from the 30% impervious surface requirement of the Shoreland District Precedence has been found in the neighborhood on five variances that were granted. A letter from DNR was received and their recommendation is to deny the variances requested. If the structure was reduced to 24 X 24, the sideyard variance could be eliminated, and the impervious coverage greatly reduced. The garage could be located 4 feet closer to the house without interfering with the existing tree and eliminate the rearyard setback variance. DNR does not believe hardship has been demonstrated. Recommendation from Staff is deny the application as proposed due to the lack of hardship demonstrated. However, Staff would not object to granting a 6.5% impervious surface variance so that a 24 X 24 foot garage may be constructed within the required setbacks of 10 feet on the west and south sides of the lot. Commissioner Arnold stated that hardship has not been demonstrated and supports the recommendation of Staff. There is no topographic hardship and if granted, a precedence would be set Commissioner Loftus felt the turning radius to drive out of driveway is a safety concern and reduction of the structure should be considered.
