LEVEL OF CITY DISCRETION IN DECISION - MAKING: The City's discretion in
approving or denying a variance is limited to whether or not the proposed project meets the
standards in the Zoning Ordinance for a variance. The City has a relatively high level of
discretion with a variance because the applicant is seeking a deviation from established
standards. This is a quasi-judicial decision.
Notice of this public hearing has been mailed to all property owners within 500 feet.

PROPOSAL SUMMARY
The applicant is requesting a 1,560 square -foot variance to exceed the 1,000 square -foot
maximum area for a detached accessory structure to construct a 2,560 square -foot accessory
structure. The property currently has a single - family home with an attached garage. There are no
detached accessory structures existing on the property. The applicant is intending to use the
accessory structure for additional storage and work space.
Chapter 20, Article XXIII, Division 1, Section 20 -904 regarding accessory structures limits
detached accessory structures to 1,000 square feet. The property is zoned Agricultural Estate
District (A2) and is located at 620 West 96 Street.
ADJACENT ZONING: The properties to the north, south, east and west of the subject property
are zoned Agricultural Estate District (A2). Access to the site is via West 96 Street to the north
of the property.
APPLICABLE REGULATIONS
• Chapter 20, Division 3, Variances.
• Chapter 20, Article X, "A -2 ", Agricultural Estate District
• Chapter 20, Article XXIII, Division 1, Section 20 -904, Accessory Structures
13ACKGROUND
The property is located north of Pioneer Trail and west of Highway 101 at 620 West 96 Street
and is zoned Agricultural Estate District (A2). The property has an area of 194,713.2 square feet
(4.47 acres), which satisfies the minimum lot area requirement of two and one -half acres in the
A2 district. The property has 155 feet of lot frontage and a depth of 1,200 feet. Staff notes that
the lot frontage does not meet the 200 -foot lot frontage minimum for the A2 district.
The house was built in 1966 and purchased by the applicant in 1998 with the intention of
constructing an accessory structure. The homeowners acquired a permit to install a crushed
gravel driveway from 96 Street to the intended location of the structure. At the time of
driveway installation a pad was graded for the intended accessory structure. The project was
then put on hold for financial reasons.
In 2004, the owner added an attached garage and a house addition. The total house addition was
298 square feet. The attached garage was 27 feet by 37 feet and 999 square feet in size.
The current zoning ordinance limits detached accessory structures to a maximum of 1,000 square
feet. This ordinance limiting the area of accessory structures in Agricultural Districts was
adopted in May of 2007 in response to contractors purchasing property and building accessory
structures to house their businesses. City Code prohibits the use of accessory structures for home
occupations.

At the time of the ordinance amendment there were discussions regarding reasonable requests for
structures in excess of 1,000 square feet to be used for a legitimate agricultural use. Minnesota
State Statute 17.81 — Definitions, Subdivision 4 defines agricultural use as "use of land for the
production of livestock dairy animals, dairy products, poultry and poultry products, fur bearing
animals, horticultural and nursery stock which is under chapter 18H, fruit of all kinds,
vegetables, forage, grains, bees, and apiary products. " It was decided after the discussions that
requests for accessory structures in excess of 1,000 square -feet would be reasonable if based on a
legitimate agricultural use. This intended use of the accessory structure to be located on the
subject property is for storage; therefore, it would not be considered to be for a legitimate
agricultural use.
Staff reviewed city records to determine if any structures in proximity to the subject site were
constructed after the accessory structure limitation was adopted in 2007. In December of 2007,
the Planning Commission approved a 177 square -foot variance to exceed the 1,000 square -foot
maximum for accessory structures. The variance was to allow for a 452 square -foot addition to
an existing 725 square -foot detached garage.

If a subject property meets the criteria as listed below or found in Minnesota Statutes 1613.60 and
273.13, the agricultural building would be exempt from Minnesota State Building Code and
would not require a building permit. The property located at 620 West 96 Street does not
qualify as agricultural land because the property has a 4.47 total acres. Therefore, the accessory
structure would require a building permit.
There was also a structure constructed sometime after 2005, without record of a building permit.
It is unclear if this structure was constructed before or after the adoption of the zoning ordinance
in 2007.

Minnesota Statutes 16B.60 — Definitions defines agricultural building to mean "a structure on
agricultural land as defined in section 273.13, subdivision 23, designed, constructed, and used to
house farm implements, livestock, or agricultural produce or products used by the owner, lessee,
and sublessee of the building and members of their immediate families, their employees, and
persons engaged in the pickup or delivery of agricultural produce or goods. "
Minnesota Statute 273.13 — Classification of property, Subdivision 23. Class 2 defines
agricultural land to mean "contiguous acreage of ten acres or more, used in the preceding year
for agricultural purposes. "
ANALYSIS
The applicant is requesting a 1,560 square -foot variance from
the 1,000 square -foot maximum detached accessory structure
limitation to construct a 2,560 square -foot accessory structure.
The applicant bought the property in 1998 with the intention of
building an accessory structure. At the time of purchase there
was no accessory structure area limitation. After grading work
was done to level a pad for the structure, the project was put on
hold due to financial reasons.
The applicant is intending to use the additional space for storage
and work space and has submitted a list and photos of intended
uses with the application:
1. Storage and restoration of vintage automobiles,
snowmobiles, lawn mowers and tractors
2. Provide space for indoor storage of a motorhome and boat
3. Provide space for an art studio
4. Tack room for horse equipment
The applicant has not chosen a contractor or company to
construct the accessory structure to date. However, the
applicant does have several examples of what the building
would look like. The structure will be in earth -tone, tan and
green, as shown in the image to the right.
Staff is concerned with the large size of the structure. This
concern orginates from the possibility home occupations may be
conducted out of accessory structures. Home occupations are a
common cause of complaint by citizens. They often create an
excess in parking, traffic and noise.
Riegert Variance Request
Planning Case 2012 -10
August 21, 2012
Page 5 of 7
Currently, it does not appear that the homeowner has intentions of selling the property.
However, staff is concerned that if the property would be sold in the future, it may be purchased
by a person with intentions of operating a home occupation out of the large outbuilding. In the
past staff has found that it is very difficult to remove and terminate noncomplying home
occupations.
The subject property is guided by the Comprehensive Plan for residential low density use and is
included in the 2010 Metropolitian Urban Services Area. This area will redevelop in the future as
a more suburban type development. Historically, 85 percent of residential low density land is
developed with approximately one -third acre lots and single - family detached resdiential units.
The remaining 15 percent of development is some other type of low density residential use e.g.,
twin homes, town houses at a density of less than four units per acre. Accessory structures in
excess of 1,000 square feet are not conducive to these types of development.
The applicant would be in compliance with zoning regulations by a reduction in the size of the
structure to maintain the 1,000 square -foot accessory structure limitation. This would allow for a
20' x 50' structure or similar configuration.
According to City Code the applicant does have reasonable use of the property with the existing
home and garage.
SITE CONDITIONS
There are not any topographical or pre- existing conditions or characteristics on the site that
would constitute a hardship or need for the variance. The location for the proposed accessory
structure was previously graded and would likely not require additional grading for the
construction.
There is a Manage Two Wetland located on the southern most portion of the site. The intended
location of the structure would meet the Manage Two Wetland setback requirements.
NEIGHBORHOOD
The applicant believes the accessory structure would fit into the neighborhood. Staff did confirm
there are several properties with an excess of 1,000 square -feet in accessory structure area; these
properties are illustrated in the image on the following page.

rr
Properties in proximity to the subject property have accessory structures ranging in size from 200
square feet to 13,500 square feet (this is a combination of five detached accessory structures). These
structures were constructed prior to the 2007 ordinance amendment. The accessory structures in
excess of 1,000 square feet at the time of the ordinance amendment are considered to be legal
nonconforming.
Staff is sympathetic to the applicant's request for an accessory structure; however, literal
interpretation of the City Code does not establish a hardship.
ALTERNATIVE
Should the Chanhassen Planning Commission decide to approve the variance request for a 1,560
square -foot accessory structure area variance from the 1,000 square -foot accessory structure
limitation to allow for a 2,560 square -foot accessory structure, staff recommends the following
conditions be adopted:
1. The accessory structure will require a building permit.
2. The accessory structure must comply with Minnesota State Building Code.

3. Outdoor storage must comply with City Code.
4. The accessory structure may not be used for the purpose of a home occupation as defined
in the Chanhassen City Code.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends the Planning Commission deny Planning Case #2012 -10 for a 1,560 square -
foot accessory structure area variance from the 1,000 square -foot accessory structure limitation
to allow for a 2,560 square -foot accessory structure on property zoned Agricultural Estate

FINDINGS OF FACT
AND DECISION (DENIAL)
IN RE:
Application of Andrew and Shannon Riegert for a 1,560 square -foot area variance from the 1,000
square -feet accessory structure limitation to allow for a 2,560 square -foot accessory structure on
property zoned Agricultural Estate District (A2) — Planning Case 2012 -10.
On August 21, 2012, the Chanhassen Planning Commission, acting as the Board of Appeals and
Adjustments, met at its regularly scheduled meeting to consider the application. The Planning
Commission conducted a public hearing on the proposed variance preceded by published and
mailed notice. The Board of Appeals and Adjustments makes the following:
FINDINGS OF FACT
1. The property is currently zoned Agricultural Estate District (A2).
2. The property is guided in the Chanhassen Comprehensive Plan for Residential Low Density.
3. The legal description of the property is as follows:
E 155' OF W 930' OF SW1 /4 NW1 /4, SECTION 25, TOWNSHIP 116, RANGE 23,
EXC: P -21 MNDOT R -O -W PLAT #10 -22.
4. Variance Findings — Section 20 -58 of the City Code provides the following criteria for the
granting of a variance:
a. Variances shall only be permitted when they are in harmony with the general purposes
and intent of this Chapter and when the variances are consistent with the comprehensive
plan.
Finding: The subject site is zoned Agricultural Estate District (A2). The purpose of the
request is to exceed the 1,000 square -foot accessory structure limitation to provide
additional storage and maintenance for non - agricultural equipment. During the 2007
amendment discussion, it was indicated that requests for accessory structures in excess of
1,000 square feet would be reasonable if based on a legitimate agricultural use. This
structure is being used for storage and not for agricultural uses; therefore, it is not
keeping in harmony with the general purpose and intent of the A2 district.
b. When there are practical difficulties in complying with the zoning ordinance. "Practical
difficulties," as used in connection with the granting of a variance, means that the
property owner proposes to use the property in a reasonable manner not permitted by this
Chapter. Practical difficulties include, but are not limited to, inadequate access to direct
sunlight for solar energy systems.
Finding: Currently, the property owners have reasonable use of the subject property
within the Agricultural Estate District, A2, as a house and attached garage exist on the
property. Accessory agricultural buildings are listed as a permitted accessory use
however; the proposed accessory structure does not meet the criteria for an agricultural
building. Literal interpretation of the code does not constitute a hardship or practical
hardship. The applicant could build a 1,000 square -foot accessory structure in compliance
with the zoning regulations.
c. That the purpose of the variation is not based upon economic considerations alone.
Finding: The stated intent of the request is for personal storage and work space.
d. -The plight of the landowner is due to circumstances to the property not created by
the landowner.
Finding: The homeowner purchased the property with the intention of constructing an
accessory structure in 1998, but due to financial hardships the project was put on hold.
During the time the project was on hold, the City of Chanhassen passed an ordinance
limiting the size of accessory structures in A2 districts to 1,000 square feet. This does not
constitute a unique hardship not created by the landowner since a 1,000 square -foot
structure could be constructed.
e. The variance, if granted, will not alter the essential character of the locality.
Finding: Granting the variance to exceed the 1,000 square -feet limitation for accessory
structures will not alter the character of the locality. There are several properties in
proximity to the subject property that have accessory structures in excess of 1,000 square
feet. These accessory structures were constructed prior to the 2007 ordinance
amendment limiting accessory structure size and are considered to be legal
nonconformities. However, this area is guided for residential low density uses in the
future. Such uses do not require accessory structures in excess of 1,000 square feet.
f. Variances shall be granted for earth sheltered construction as defined in Minnesota
Statutes Section 216C.06, subdivision 14, when in harmony with this Chapter.
Finding: This does not apply to this request.
The planning report 42012 -10, August 21, 2012, prepared by Ashley Mellgren, et al, is
incorporated herein.

On August, 21, 2012, the Chanhassen Planning Commission, acting as the Board of Appeals and
Adjustments, met at its regularly scheduled meeting to consider the application. The Planning
Commission conducted a public hearing on the proposed variance preceded by published and

Finding: The subject site is zoned Agricultural Estate District (A2). The purpose of the
request is to exceed the 1,000 square -foot accessory structure limitation to provide for
additional storage. The construction of accessory structures is a permitted use in the
Agricultural Estate District (A2). The size of the structure is in keeping with accessory
structures in this neighborhood and the purpose and intent of the zoning ordinance.
b. When there are practical difficulties in complying with the zoning ordinance. "Practical
difficulties," as used in connection with the granting of a variance, means that the
property owner proposes to use the property in a reasonable manner not permitted by this
Chapter. Practical difficulties include, but are not limited to, inadequate access to direct
sunlight for solar energy systems.
Finding: The practical difficulty is the homeowner does not have adequate storage and
work space. The home was initially purchased with the intent of constructing an
accessory structure and the building pad was initially graded. The homeowners ceased
construction after the initial grading for financial reasons. The homeowner now is in a
financial position to move forward with the project, but there is a 1,000s square -foot
accessory structure limitation in Agricultural Estate Districts (A2).
c. That the purpose of the variation is not based upon economic considerations alone.
Finding: The stated intent for the request is for personal storage and work space and is
not intended to create an economic windfall.
d. The plight of the landowner is due to circumstances unique to the property not created by
the landowner.
Finding: The homeowner purchased the property with the intention of constructing an
accessory structure in 1998. However, due to financial concerns the project was put on
hold. During the time the project was on hold, the City of Chanhassen passed an
ordinance limiting the size of accessory structures in A2 districts to 1,000 square feet.
e. The variance, if granted, will not alter the essential character of the locality.
Finding: The construction of the accessory structure would be in keeping with the
character of the neighborhood or locality. There are several properties in proximity to the
subject property that have accessory structures in excess of 1,000 square feet.

I am asking for a variance to build a 40'x 64' Pole Barn. The reason I am requesting the variance will be
outlined below.
In 1998 we purchased the property with the intent to install a pole barn. At the time there was not a
1000' sq. ft. maximum on building size. We acquired a permit to install a crushed gravel driveway from
96` St. to our backyard. At that time we had the excavating work done to level a pad for the pole barn.
Due to financial reasons, we were forced to put the pole barn project on hold. Now we are in a position
to move forward but have been told there is the sq. ft. size limit. We need additional storage /work
space for multiple reasons.
• Storage and restoration of vintage automobiles.
• Storage and maintenance of snowmobiles
• Storage and maintenance of Lawn mower
• Indoor storage of Motorhome
• Art studio
• Restoration of vintage John Deere tractors
• Tack room for horse equipment
i 19 f)OXT
This is a small list of the uses that we had intended for the pole barn. We feel it would fit in to the
neighborhood very well as many of our neighbors have sheds of a similar size and even larger.
Thank you for your consideration.
