RESOLUTION 17 -20PC
A RESOLUTION APPROVING A VARIANCE FROM THE MINIMUM FRONT YARD
SETBACK FOR A PROPERTY IN THE I - 1 ( GENERAL INDUSTRIAL ) ZONING DISTRICT
Motion By : Petersen Second By : Ringstad
WHEREAS , The Prior Lake Planning Commission , acting as the Board of Adjustment , conducted
a public hearing on September 11 , 2017 , to consider a request from Dan Stanley
and Larry Raasch on behalf of SR Property Development LLC to approve a variance
from the minimum front yard setback to allow construction of an office/warehouse
structure on a property in the k1l ( General Industrial ) Zoning District at the following
property :
17098 Adelmann Street SE , Prior Lake , MN 55372
Lot 1 , Block 1 , Deerfield Industrial Park 5th Addition , Scott County , Minnesota .
( PID 25-444 - 001 -0 )
WHEREAS , Notice of the public hearing on said variance request was duly published in
accordance with the applicable Prior Lake Ordinances ; and
WHEREAS , The Planning Commission proceeded to hear all persons interested in this variance
request , and persons interested were afforded the opportunity to present their views
and objections related to the variance request ; and
WHEREAS , The Planning Commission has reviewed the application for the variance as
contained in Case # DEV-2017-0035 and held a hearing thereon on September 11 ,
2017 ,
WHEREAS , The Planning Commission has considered the effect of the proposed variance 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 variance on the
Comprehensive Plan
NOW THEREFORE , BE IT HEREBY RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF PRIOR LAKE ,
MINNESOTA as follows :
1 . The recitals set forth above are incorporated herein .
2 . The Planning Commission hereby adopts the following findings :
a . There are practical difficulties in complying with the strict terms of the
Ordinance . " Practical difficulties , " as used in connection with the granting of a
Variance , means the property owner proposes to use the property in a
reasonable manner not permitted by the Zoning Ordinance . Economic
considerations alone do not constitute practical difficulties .
1
The triangular shape of the site creates a practical difficulty for the property owner.
The radius turns to maneuver of industrial equipment and utilizing dock or unloading
areas in the limited buildable area of the triangular lot is problematic without shifting
the building site forward on the lot to within 15 feet of the front property line , while
maintaining the 60 feet rear yard setback distance .
b . The granting of the Variance is in harmony with the general purposes and intent
of the City Subdivision and Zoning Ordinances and the Comprehensive Plan .
The purpose of the Zoning Ordinance is to "prevent overcrowding of land and undue
concentration of structures and population by regulating the use of land and buildings
and the bulk of buildings in relation to the land surrounding them . " This purpose is
implemented through required minimum setbacks . The proposed variance will allow
for the use of the triangular-shaped property while maintaining the required rear
setback of 60 feet from residential property .
c . The practical difficulty is due to circumstances unique to the property not
resulting from actions of the owners of the property and is not a mere
convenience to the property owner and applicant.
Granting the variance will not merely serve as a convenience to the applicant , but
rather is necessary to alleviate an undue hardship due to the triangular shape of the
lot of record .
d . The granting of the variance will not alter the essential character of the
neighborhood or be detrimental to the health and safety of the public welfare .
The granting of the variance will not alter the existing character of the neighborhood .
The 60400t rear setback form residential property will be in compliance . The 15 -foot
front setback will still allow landscaping in the front yard . The building being closer to
Adelmann will not " crowd " the street corridor , nor create any sight issues . Adelmann
has a wide 80400t right-of-way ; a sidewalk is located on the south side with planted
boulevard trees . The 100-foot building itself is only subject to the reduced setback ( or
36 % of the full lot width of 330 feet) . Therefore , 64 % of the lot width along Adelmann
does not have any visual impact .
e . The granting of the Variance will not result in allowing any use of the property
that is not permitted in the zoning district where the subject property is located .
The requested construction is for an office/warehouse and storage use which is an
allowed use within the I - 1 (General Industrial ) Zoning District ,
3 . Based upon the findings set forth herein , the Planning Commission hereby approves the
following variance to allow a construction of an office warehouse building in the I - 1
(General Industrial ) Zoning District :
a . A 1546ot variance from the required minimum 3046ot front yard setback (Section
1102. 1405)
4 . The variance is subject to the following conditions of approval :
a . The variance shall be recorded at the Scott County Recorder' s Office .
b . The variance is subject to the issuance of required permits from all applicable
governmental agencies .
