Sam Lucast - Associate Planner
Consider Conditional Use Permit Application of
Patrick O'Keefe
December 2, 1991
The Planning Department received, and the
Planning Commission approved, a Conditional
Use Permit application from Patrick O'Keefe.
Mr. O'Keefe requests permission to construct
a du~lex in an R-1 District where it is a
Cond1tional Use. The use must be accepted or
denied based on the criteria in Section 7.5 C
and D of the Zoning Ordinance. The
Performance Standards in D are applicable in
Commercial or Industrial designations, not
residential. Therefore the standards in
section C are applicable in this instance.
See attached staff memo to the Planning
Commission dated November 7, 1991 for a
detailed analysis of the proposed use and
subject site.
The subject site meets all applicable zoning
criteria and is an excellent use of the odd
shaped parcel. The Planning Commission placed
the following conditions on the site and
recommends that these conditions remain
attached to the Conditional Use Permit.
The unit must be owner occupied.
A parking plan be submitted to staff to
include a turnaround for both driveways,
90 degree angle exits, and staff review
driveway relative to Dakota Street.
The building must exceed the average
value of houses in the area.
Landscaping plan be submitted with
building permit and reviewed by staff.
The plat plan and buildin9 elevations
shall be an exhibit and bU1lding plans
shall be substantially compliant with the
application submittal.

RECOMMENDATION:
ACTION REQUIRED:
Neighborhood residents are concerned that an
absentee landlord situation would arise and be
detrimental to the qualitr of the
neighborhood. The attached cond1tions assure
the neighbors that the use will be a
beneficial and positive addition to the area.
The lot is ideally suited to the use because
of the size, shape, and location. Develo~ment
into two single family lots is unl1kely
because of the proximity to C.R. 21 requiring
a centerline setback of 85', and also due to
the high traffic volume which is estimated to
reach 10,000 Average Daily Trips (ADT's) in
five years. The placement of a duplex in the
approximate center of the lot allows a buffer
of distance and existing vegetation to make
the site more desirable for this conditional
use.
The condition of owner occupancy ensures a use
more in keeping with the single family
neighborhood. Even if the unit is sold, that
condition remains in effect.
The requested Conditional Use is consistent
with the Comprehensive Plan. The intensity of
development equates to a low density
residential equivalent due to the large lot
size involved.
The alternatives are as follow:

1/2 ACRE LOT NW OF C.R. 21 & WEST AVE
SAM LUCAST

NOVEMBER 7, 1991
SITE ANALYSIS
HISTORY(BACKGROUND:
The subJect site is a triangular shaped parcel approximatel~ 1/2
acre in size adjacent to and northwest of the intersect10n of
County Road 21 and West Avenue. The lot is bisected east to west
by a Zoning District Boundarr. The northern portion of the lot
is zoned R-l Urban Resident1al and the southern portion is zoned
C-1 Conservation. In cases where a parcel is divided into two or
more Zoning Districts, section 2.3 of the Zoning Ordinance allows
any portion of the lot within fifty (50) feet of the division to
be used for any use of either district. Therefore, the applicant
has submitted a conditional use permit to construct a duplex on
the parcel. Duplexes are allowed as Conditional Uses in the R-1
Zoning District.
PREVIOUS PROPOSALS:
No previous proposals for this parcel are on file at City Hall.
PHYSIOGRAPHY:
The site is approximately 1/2 acre in size. It slopes from the
north to the south. The middle of the lot is basically open
space. The peripherr of the site contains medium and large
trees. There is a m1xture of both deciduous and coniferous trees
in this area. It appears from the information submitted, that
the structure will be located in the open space. See attached
site plan. Section 7.5, paragraph C, subsection 7c of the
Zoning Ordinance requires Conditional Use development to be
located so that the maximum number of trees are preserved. The
existing tree cover provides a natural buffer to separate the
home from adjacent development and traffic associated with County
Road 21.
ADJACENT USES:

and West Avenue intersection from the site. The entire abandoned
railroad right of way is zoned C-l Conservation District. Prior
to development of C.R. 21, the railroad right of way was
anticipated to be used for public trails. However, the right of
way was abandoned and sold to private individuals. Therefore no
trail will be built in its former location and the c-l
designation of the property is questionable.
EXISTING CONDITIONS:
The site is currently vacant. South and west of the site, and
defining the southwestern border, is County Road 21, a paved four
lane arterial roadwar. North and east of the subject site is
single family resident1al housing. North of the site in the
Sunfish Bay subdivision are two duplex units that were given
conditional use approval. They are both two family units on
two combined substandard lots (Please see map 2 for location of
other conditional uses.)
NEIGHBORHOOD ISSUES/IMPACT/CONCERNS:
This proposed duplex is located in an area which would be
difficult to develop for single family homes due to the large lot
size, triangular shape and setback requirements from C.R. 21. A
duplex requires 15,000 square feet for minimum lot size while a
single family dwelling requires 10,000 square feet. Deed
restrictions require that no building be placed closer than
thirty (30) feet to the northern property line. It would be
nearly impossible to obtain the required minimum lot sizes for
two single family dwellings without variances or significant
overstory loss. The half acre lot is not desirable for
construction due to its proximity to an arterial roadwar which is
intended to carry 10,000 ADT's (Average Daily Trips) w1thin five
(5) years and the uncommonly large lot size. The pollution
and noise emitted from C.R. 21 will likely be a negative
influence for single family construction.
The applicant intends to construct a home that exceeds the
valuation of single family homes in the neighborhood. The unit
will be owner occupied and therefore be more representative of a
single family residential environment. The owner will occupy the
upper portion of the structure and his parents the ground level.
The submitted plans indicate a design sensitive to the specific
conditions on this property. The proposed structure is
architecturally pleasing and should be a positive feature on the
corner. The site is located on the periphery of the nei9hborhood
and relates more to the C.R. 21 corridor than to the Pr10r Acres
neighborhood. Therefore a conditional use permit for a duplex on
this site will not be a negative influence to the remainder of
the single family neighborhood.
PROBLEMS/OPPORTUNITIES:
Staff does not feel that this application will set a negative
precedent for the neighborhood. The two existing Conditional
Use duplexes had conditions placed on their permits to deal with
perceived problems associated with an out of the ordinary land
,
use. Possible conditions for this application include limits on
parking and the need for a detailed parking plan, requiring owner
occupation, having the proposed structure valued higher than the
adjacent structures, and the structure located to preserve the
most trees. These conditions or other similar ones may be placed
on the use to alleviate any neighborhood impact.
The neighborhood is fully developed with single family homes.
The site consists of approximately 1/2 acre and is a conducive
setting for a duplex due to its isolation from the rest of the
neighborhood, location adjacent to a major arterial street and
proximity to an R-3 Zoning District. It is located in the
Shoreland District and the Minnesota Department of Natural
Resources has no problem with the Conditional Use request.
The opportunity exists to obtain the hi~hest use permitted from
the vacant parcel without compromis1n~ the integrity of the
single family neighborhood. The subm1tted plans reveal a
sensitive site plan with a design specifically for this site, not
a standard design which is intended for a flat rectangular lot.
DEVELOPMENT SUMMARY:
site area and statistics: Approximately 1/2 acre (21,780 sf.)
Zoning/setback requirement: 85' setback from centerline of
County Road 21
30' from north property line (as per deed restriction)
Parking requirement: Two (2) spots per dwelling unit
Front and rear yard setbacks: 25 feet each
Side yard setbacks: 10 feet
Maximum Height: 35 feet above average ground level

RECOMMENDATION:
The Planning Staff recommends approval of the
Conditional Use for a duplex subject to the
conditions:

following
1) The upper unit must be owner occupied
2) The building must provide four required
spaces
3) The building must exceed the value of the
4) The site plan must include a parking plan

5) The unit must be located to remove as few

trees as possible
The approval of this Conditional Use Permit does not adversely
affect the health, safety, or welfare of the general public.
Rationale for approval of the conditional use are that the
subject site exceeds the 15,000 square foot minimum lot size
requirement; the site is located adjacent to a R-3, High Density
Residential Zone and an R-l Zone and as such, provides a
transition between them; the site is wooded on all sides to
provide a buffer from adjacent homes and C.R. 21; the negative
pollution and noise problems associated with C.R. 21 traffic
combined with the irregular triangular shape of the lot are not
conducive to single family development; the plan demonstrates a
sensitivity to the neighborhood by the incorporation of superior
architectural design and the provision that the unit will be
owner occupied.

Application for Conditional Use Permit
Construction of a two-family house within
an R-l Zone.
The parcel in question is located on the northwest corner of
County Road 21 and West Avenue and is currently zoned R-l.
But, it is on the fringe of that R-l zone. The four acre parcel
across the str.;t'>t is zoned for up to 144 uni ts and there are
several other two- and four-family residences in the vicinity.
I am not asking for this variation from the current zoning
simply because others have been given permission. I truly
believe that thp proposed house will be an asset to the
neighborhood.
The house will be occupied by my family in the upper two
floors and by my parents in the walk-out level. As you can
see on the accompanying preliminary dravi~~s, the house bears
little resemblance to what normally comes to mind when the
word "duplex" is mentioned.
I recognize the sentimental value of the "Stonetables" prop-
erty to many long time residents, and hope that this home will
satisfy their desires for an architecturally significant
building on that property.
PROPERTY DESCRIPTION:

NOTICE OF HEARING
FOR
CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT
You are hereby notified that a hearing will be held by the
Planning Commission in the Prior Lake Council Chambers at 4629
Dakota street S.E. on:
THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 7, 1991
at
8:00
P.M.
PURPOSE OF HEARING:
To consider a conditional use permit
application for Patrick O'Keefe.
SUBJECT SITE LOCATION:
1/2 Acre lot located adjacent to and
northwest of the intersection of
West Avenue and C.R. 21 (Eagle Creek
Avenue) .
REQUESTED ACTION:
The property is zoned R-l Urban
Residential which permits single
family homes to be built. The
applicant is requesting the Planning
Commission to grant a conditional
use permit to construct a duplex on
the lot as proposed on the attached
sheets.
If you desire to be heard in reference to this matter, you should
attend this meeting. Oral and written comments will be accepted
by the Plannin9 Commission. For more information, contact the
Prior Lake Plannlng Department at 447-4230.
Prior Lake Planning Commission
October 30, 1991
4629 Dakota St. SE, Prior Lake, Minnesota 55372 / Ph. (612) 447,4230 / Fax (612) 447-4245
We the undersigned as neighbors and home owners surrounding
the 1/2 acre lot at West Avenue and County Road 21 object to
granting a conditional use permit for the following reasons:
(1) The current zoning R-I and C-I permits only a single
family residence.
(2) No hardship exists for ithe O'Keefe family as they knew
the property was zoned R-I and C-I and that as such only a
single family residence could be built. There are duplex
sites available in the City for sale.
(3) A duplex would change the single family home character
of the neighborhood.
(4) A varience can be granted to accomodate a reasonable
single family residence if necessary.
(5) A 1/2 acre odd shaped lot is better used by one family
rather than two families living in cramped conditions and
creating cramped conditions for their neighbors.
(6) County Road 21 forms a natural libuffer zone to maintaining
single family residences.
(7) There has been comment that it would be difficult to
place two single family dwellings on this property, the obvious
answer is that there is inadequate room for two so only
allow one single family, as per zoning and the comprehensive
plan.
(8) This represents up zoning from C-l and R-l to R-2 in an
area zoned single familly residence. It is a NEGATIVE PRECEDENT
FOR THE NEIGHBORHOOD. It can also negatively affect surround in
property values.
(9) This use compromises the integrity of the single family
neighborhood. It is not the best use and it is currently not
zoned for this use, which is precisely why we have zoning
and a comprehensive plan.
(10) This proposed duplex is of lesser value than the homes
that exist on the lake in Sunfish Bay and Dakota Street and
on Lakeside Park. There would be a detrimental effect on
all these families.
We respectfully request the Council to REJECT the proposed
Conditional Use Permit and thereby maintain the integrity of the
neighborhood.

ITEM III
PAT O'KEEFE - CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT
Pat O'Keefe, 15191 Fairlawn Shores Trail SE, stated he is
requesting a conditional use permit to construct a two family
dwelling. The design of the house is unique as it does not
resemble the typical duplex style. The applicant will be living
in the upper level and his parents would live in the lower
walk-out level.
Sam Lucast presented the information as per planning re~ort of
November 7, 1991. The subject site is located in two d1fferent
zones. The southern portion is C-l Conservation and the northern
portion is R-l Urban Residential. When a parcel is divided by
two zones, the Ordinance allows it to be used for any use within
50 feet of the division. Duplexes are allowed as Conditional
Uses in the R-l Zonin~ District. The applicant has designed the
house plans to compllment the site and is not the normal
appearance of a duplex. The unit will be owner occupied. Staff
recommends approval of the application with conditions.
Robert Preussler, 16350 Park Ave. asked for clarification of the
location of the proposed duplex.
Margaret Busse, 4350 Dakota st. questioned the duplex and stated
that she would like to see one home built on the lot.
Corinne Gormley, 16048 West Ave. had questions on the building
envelope in reference to the 30 foot setback.
Rich Rybeck, 16000 Sunfish Trail, asked for clarification on the
location of the conservation district boundary and owner
occupied status for future owners.
Patrick O'Keefe, 15191 Fairlawn Shores
co-owner with his parents, and that the
the duplex can be converted to a sin9le
questioned recommended staff restrictlon
