HomeMy WebLinkAbout9 - Mark Hyland Variance AGENDA NUMBER: PREPARED BY: SUBJECT: DATE: INTRODUCTION: BACKGROUND: CENSUS '90 . 9 DEB GARROSS, ASSISTANT CITY PLANNER CONSIDER APPEAL OF PLANNING COMMISSION VARIANCE DECISION BY MARK HYLAND APRIL 2, 1990 The purpose of this item is for the City Council to review a March 15, 1990 Planning Commission decision to grant a 1,950.2 square foot minimum lot area variance for Deutsch Construction. The Planning commission voted 5 - 0 to approve the variance application, and attached conditions that the front and side yards be sodded and that two trees be planted in the yard as per the City of Prior Lake Tree Planting requirements. On March 21, 1990, staff received a letter of appeal from Mark Hyland who wishes to have the decision reviewed by the City Council. See attached materials for further reference. The subject site is a vacant lot located between 14419 and 14433 Watersedge Trail N.E. The lot is zoned R-1 Urban Residential and S-D Shoreland District. The minimum lot area requirement for this district is 10,000 square feet. The survey indicates that Lot 31 consists of 8049.8 square feet. Boudin's Manor is fully developed with single family homes and cabins with the exception of six lots. The area was platted in 1950 into predominantly 50 foot wide lots. The subject site has been a lot of record since 1950 and has municipal services available to it. The City of Prior Lake has issued five building permits to this subdivision for construction of new homes. The remainder of the structures were built prior to annexation of Section 30 into the corporate limits of Prior Lake. Much of the development is at variance with current setback and lot size standards of the Zoning Ordinance. 4629 Dakota St. S.E., Prior Lake, Minnesota 55372 / Ph. (612) 4474230 / Fax (612) 4474245 DISCUSSION: COMPREHENSIVE PLAN IMPACT: ALTERNATIVES: RECOMMENDATION: ACTION REQUIRED: The four standards necessary to grant variances to the re9Uirements of the Zoning Ordinance can, 1n staff's opinion be satisfied. Boudin's Manor is 90% developed with homes existing on similarly sized lots. Literal enforcement of the ordinance would preclude development of Lot 31, which would result in undue hardship to the property owner. The hardship is caused by the ordinance, not the property owner. The owner has attempted to comply with the spirit and intent of the ordinance in that no additional setback variances have been requested to build a home on this lot. The Zonin9 Ordinance 9randfathers lots of record as bU11dable even 1f they do not meet area and size requirements of the code. The City has approved five similar lot size variances since adoption of the Shoreland Management Ordinance in 1987. Staff received a ~hone call from Pat Lynch of the DNR concern1ng this minimum lot area variance. The DNR has no objection to the variance, understanding that this is not a lakeshore lot and that it is a lot of record. Mr. Lynch suggested that the applicant should be encouraged to reduce, as much as possible, the amount of coverage for the lot. The Comprehensive Plan indicates low residential use for this part community. The proposal is consistent Comprehensive Plan. density of the with the 1- 2. 3. Approve the 1,950.2 square foot minimum lot area variance as requested. Table the item for further study. Deny the minimum lot area variance. Alternative # 1 is recommended by the Planning Commission. A motion to resolve the issue is in order. 3-21-90 City of Prior Lake City councl1 I wish to appeal the decision of the Planning Board in regards to Lot 31 In Boudlns Manor. There is no hardship In this case. You have a Builder from outside the community which wants to build his Third Spec Home on a sub standard Lot. Deutsh Construction has bul1t on Lots 33 and 34. The City of Prior Lake, City Councll needs to over turn this decision. Lot 31 and 32 together will make one Lot which fits the codes you put in place. I feel1ts time to follow through on your own codes and far past the time to listen to the Neighborhood. ~~~-- ark Hy land .. 14399 Watersedge Tr. N.E.
