1998-01-13 minutes CHANHASSEN BOARD OF ADJUSTMENTS AND APPPEALS REGULAR MEETING JANUARY 13, 1998 Chairperson Johnson called the meeting to order at 6:05 p.m. MEMBERS PRESENT: Willard Johnson, Steven Berquist and Nancy Mancino STAFF PRESENT: Cynthia Kirchoff, Planner I A REQUEST FOR AN 8 FOOT VARIANCE FROM THE 10 FOOT SIDE YARD AND A REQUEST FOR A 10 FOOT VARIANCE FROM THE 30 FOOT FRONT YARD SETBACK FOR THE CONSTRUCTION OF A GARAGE,DANIEL RUTLEDGE, 6711 HOPI ROAD. Cynthia Kirchoff presented the staff report on this item. Daniel Rutledge stated that a 20 foot wide garage is too small. He explained his plan for two, ten foot wide doors on the 28 foot wide garage as this will allow the vehicle doors to be opened without hitting the other vehicle in the garage. Mr. Rutledge explained that he variance from the 30 foot front yard setback was needed because this would allow for more green space and a garden area. He mentioned that his vehicle is 17 feet in length and even if the garage was placed at the 30 foot setback, an additional vehicle could not be parked in the driveway. Mr. Rutledge stated that the neighbors do not oppose this proposal because this is an investment for the future property owner. Sharon Wolfe, 6699 Hopi Road, stated that the proposal would not affecting her sight line. Steven Berquist asked if the applicant had considered purchasing Lot 1118 so that a larger garage could be constructed. Rutledge responded that the previous owner did pose that question to the neighbor,but they did not wish to sell. Berquist commented that a potential buyer would probably value an attached garage rather than a detached garage located a distance from the home. Rutledge stated that an attached garage is not an option and that he has not approached the owner. Berquist stated that he believes that a future owner of the neighboring property will be affected by the proposal even though the current owner will not. He explained that he must weigh all issues into his decision. Board of Adjustments and Appeals Meeting Minutes January 13, 1998 Page 2 Wolfe reassured the Board that the proposed garage will not affect her because she has natural screening. Rutledge stated that the proposed garage will line up with the adjacent properties' garages. Willard Johnson stated that he would like to see a 30 foot setback along Hopi Road. He believes that a width of 22 feet is sufficient for a garage. Rutledge responded that he will only build it 26 feet wide because he does not want to build a fire wall. Nancy Mancino stated that Carver Beach is wonderful eclectic neighborhood and that many variance have had to be granted in order for homes to be built. She stated that there is no reason that the garage could not be placed 30 feet from the property line. She explained that a smaller two-car garage may be difficult to get two vehicles parked. Berquist stated that he is inclined to approve a 2 foot variance to build a 22 foot wide garage with a 30 foot front yard setback. He stated that he must make a decision that make sense not what necessarily suits the applicant. Berquist moved, Johnson seconded the motion to close the public hearing. Berquist moved, Mancino seconded the motion to deny the 8 foot variance from the 10 foot side yard setback and the 10 foot variance from the 30 foot front yard setback and approve a 2 foot variance from the side yard setback for the construction of a garage. All voted in favor and the motion carried. Mancino questioned if the City Code regulates the depth of an accessory structure. Kirchoff responded that only square footage is regulated APPROVAL OF MINUTES: Berquist moved to approve the minutes of the Board of Adjustments and Appeals Meeting dated November 5, 1997. Mancino abstained. All voted in favor and the motion carried.

Section 20-615 states that in single family residential districts the minimum front yard setback is 30 feet. BACKGROUND Carver Beach was platted in 1927. This is one of the oldest and most unique residential neighborhoods in the City. The lots are generally 20 feet in width and about 100 feet in depth (depending on topography and physical features). The lots, although originally intended for cottages or summer cabins, have been combined to accommodate single family homes with attached garages. The size and shape of some of the lots, as well as the topography, makes locating a home or an accessory structure difficult at times. Hence, many variances have been granted in this area. Although many of these variances were for lot area, not setbacks. Without these variances, the owner could not make a reasonable use of the property. Many variances have been granted in the Carver Beach area to allow a reasonable use of the property. For instance, 6699 Hopi Road, the neighboring property, has been granted two variances for additions. A kitchen, living room and garage were added to an existing 24 foot by 20 foot home. The existing location of the home required that the additions encroach into setbacks. (The home was located on the property line.) The fact that a property is located in Carver Beach does not guarantee or warrant a variance. Many properties enjoy a reasonable use while maintaining required setbacks. The subject property is an irregular shaped lot and does have topographic challenges, however, an area exists for the garage without a variance. The property is a total of 10 lots combined into one parcel. ANALYSIS This application requests two variances, one from the 10 foot side yard setback and the other from the 30 foot front yard setback. The applicant would like to construct a 26 foot by 28 foot (728 sq. ft.) accessory structure. There currently is a small 74 sq. ft. shed and a 2-story single- family home on the property. The shed will be demolished prior to the construction of the garage. The two lots which front Hopi Road are the proposed location of the accessory structure. The home is located on the remaining lots. The extreme northern portion of the property contains a steep slope and mature trees. The two lots which abut Hopi Road are relatively flat. Rutledge Variance January 13, 1998 Page 3 SIDE YARD VARIANCE The variance from the side yard setback is requested because the two lots are only 40 feet in width and the proposed garage is 28 feet wide. The garage's width could be reduced to 20 feet and the depth could be increased from 26 feet. This is an average size for a double garage and this would still allow a reasonable use of the property. (Actually,the proposal is larger than some of the homes in Carver Beach.) According to their surveys most neighboring garages range from 12 feet to 24 feet in width. Building Code Requirements for the North Wall -Side Yard Setback The Uniform Building Code requires that exterior walls of less than three feet be of one-hour fire-resistive construction with no openings. The UBC permits overhangs to extend one-third the distance to the property line or a maximum of 12' into the area where openings are not permitted. Should the garage be constructed where indicated on the submitted survey, no overhangs would be permitted on north wall. FRONT YARD V AN • C f • The applicant is also requesting a variance from the 30 foot front yard setback. This property has two front yards because it abuts both Pawnee Drive and Hopi Road. The accessory structure must meet the 30 foot front yard setback along Hopi Road. The applicant contends that the garage cannot be shifted back to this setback because of a pine tree. There are two trees in the vicinity of the proposal. One is located directly east of the existing shed, which will not be removed. The other is just east of the proposal. (This tree appears to be dead or dying). Staff would like to see the garage placed at the 30 foot setback for two reasons. Firstly, the streets in Carver Beach are more narrow than streets in newer subdivisions, therefore, ample parking should be provided on private property. Having a 30 foot driveway should alleviate problems associated with on-street parking. Secondly, there are no physical or topographic features prohibiting the applicant from shifting the garage to the 30 foot setback. The depth of the lot is sufficient for this garage, the physical surroundings do not prohibit alternate placement, and the shape and topography do not limit the garage's location. Therefore, a hardship does not exist. The applicant has a reasonable opportunity to place a 20 foot wide double garage on the property. The City Council recently approved a zoning ordinance amendment that prohibits encroachments into setbacks that have been granted variances. In this situation, the eaves on the garage would not be permitted to encroach into the"new" setback. If the variances are approved, the overhang on the north side must be a distance of two feet from the property line and there shall be no overhang into the new 20 front yard setback. This will reduce the width of the garage to 26 feet, however. Rutledge Variance January 13, 1998 Page 4 Staff believes that the applicant should maintain the 10 and 30 foot setbacks and that a hardship does not exist. FINDINGS The Board of Adjustments and Appeals shall not recommend and the City Council shall not grant a variance unless they find the following facts: a. That the literal enforcement of this chapter would cause an undue hardship. Undue hardship means that the property cannot be put to reasonable use because of its size, physical surroundings, shape or topography. Reasonable use includes a use made by a majority of comparable property within 500 feet of it. The intent of this provision is not to allow a proliferation of variances, but to recognize that there are pre-existing standards in this neighborhood. Variances that blend with these pre-existing standards without departing downward from them meet this criteria. Finding: The applicant can place a 2-stall, 20 foot wide garage on the property within the setbacks. That is an average garage. Therefore, the applicant has a reasonable use of the property. The proposed 728 sq. ft. garage is larger than some of the homes in Carver Beach. b. The conditions upon which a petition for a variance is based are not applicable, generally, to other property within the same zoning classification. Finding: The majority of the homes meet the required setbacks. Although Carver Beach does pose challenges, the majority of the structures built after the ordinance do maintain the required setbacks. c. The purpose of the variation is not based upon a desire to increase the value or income potential of the parcel of land. Finding: The proposal is not based upon the desire to increase the value of the land, but is based on the need for a garage. d. The alleged difficulty or hardship is not a self-created hardship. Finding: The alleged hardship is self-created. The applicant does have an opportunity to build a garage in the required setbacks. e. The granting of the variance will not be detrimental to the public welfare or injurious to other land or improvements in the neighborhood in which the parcel is located. Rutledge Variance January 13, 1998 Page 5 Finding:. The variance will not be detrimental to the public welfare or injurious to other land. f. The proposed variation will not impair an adequate supply of light and air to adjacent property or substantially increase the congestion of the public streets or increase the danger of fire or endanger the public safety or substantially diminish or impair property values within the neighborhood. Finding: The proposed variation will not impair light and air to adjacent properties or impair property values. However, if the garage is only placed 20 feet from the property line, the owner may not have sufficient parking and may have to park on the already narrow Hopi Road. RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends that the Board of Adjustments and Appeals adopt the following motion: "The Board of Adjustments and Appeals denies the request for an 8 foot variance from the 10 side yard setback and a 10 foot variance from the 30 foot front yard setback for the construction of an ,..� accessory structure based upon the findings presented in the staff report and the following: 1. The applicant has not demonstrated a hardship to warrant the granting of a variance. 2. The applicant has a reasonable opportunity to construct a detached garage within the setbacks." Should the Board of Adjustments and Appeals approve the request, the following conditions shall apply: 1. The garage shall maintain the natural drainageway. 2. There shall be no encroachments, including eaves or overhangs, into the new setbacks. 3. The applicant shall obtain a building permit prior to the construction of a garage. 4. Exterior walls and overhangs shall comply with the provisions of the Uniform Building Code. 5. Address numbers complying with Chanhassen City Policy #29-1992 shall be installed on the street facing the street. Rutledge Variance January 13, 1998 Page 6 ATTACHMENTS 1. Application and Letter 2.

BOX 147 • CHANHASSEN, MINNESOTA 55317 (612) 937-1900 • FAX (612) 937-5739 MEMORANDUM TO: Cindy Kirchoff,Planner I FROM: Steve A.Kirchman,Building Official DATE: January 7, 1998 SUBJECT: 97-12 VAR(6711 Hopi Road,Mr.Dan Rutledge) I was asked to review the variance proposal stamped "CITY OF CHANHASSEN, RECEIVED, DEC 2 3 1997 , CHANHASSEN PLANNING DEPT." for the above referenced project. Analysis: Building code requirements.The Uniform Building Code(UBC)classifies the garage as a U-1 occupancy and provides requirements for fire-resistive construction and opening protection for exterior walls within three feet of the property line. UBC Table 5-A requires exterior walls less than three feet from the property line be of one-hour fire- resistive construction with no openings. The UBC permits overhangs to extend one-third the distance to the property line or a maximum of 12" into the area where openings are not permitted. Should the garage be constructed where indicated on the submitted survey,no overhangs would be permitted on the north wall. The UBC has no requirements for fire-resistive construction when exterior walls and overhangs are greater than three feet from the property line. Address numbers. The UBC and Chanhassen City Policy# 29-1992 requires address numbers at least 5" high be placed on the garage wall facing the street. Recommendations: Should the variance be granted,the following conditions should be included: 1. Exterior walls and overhangs shall comply with the provisions of the Uniform Building Code. 2. Address numbers complying with Chanhassen City Policy #29-1992 shall be installed on the garage wall facing the street. g:\safeq\sak\memos\planUuddge l
