LOCA TION: 7200 Lodgepole Point The Woods at Longacres, 4th Addition, Lot 16, Block 4 APPLICANT: James & Kristin Ruelle 7200 Lodgepole Point Chanhassen, MN 55317 PRESENT ZONING: Planned Unit Development-Residential (PUD-R), 2020 LAND USE PLAN: Residential- Low Density (net density range 1.2 - 4u/acre) ACREAGE: 0.6 acre DENSITY: NA SUMMARY OF REQUEST: Request for a side yard setback variance to construct a three-season porch and attached deck. Notice of this public hearing has been mailed to all property owners within 500 feet. 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. Planning Case #04-28 Ruelle Variance September 7, 2004 Page 2 SUMMARY OF PROPOSAL The applicant is proposing the construction of a three-season porch and attached deck. The proposed three-season porch would be located 6.75 feet from the southern property line. The applicant is requesting a 2.25-foot side yard setback variance from the required 9-foot side yard setback to permit the construction of a three-season porch. The proposed addition would be located approximately 35 feet from the nearest structure on the neighboring lot to the south (see Applicable Regulations). Staff wishes to clarify that for the purposes of this variance the side yard setback was measured from the eaves of the proposed porch rather than the footings; Chanhassen City Code 20-908 (5)(a) states: (5) The following shall not be considered to be obstructions (variances 2ranted from a required setback are not entitled to the followiD1! additional encroachments): a. Into any required front yard, or required side yard adjoining a side street lot line, cornices, canopies, eaves, or other architectural features may project a distance not exceeding two (2) feet, six (6) inches; APPLICABLE REGUA TIONS On October 6, 1993 the City Council adopted PUD #93-3 with 34 conditions; one of the conditions of approval stated: 1. Developer is responsible for demonstrating a minimum 20-foot separation is provided for side yards as each building permit is requested. Interior side yard setbacks of 6 feet for garages and 9 feet for livin2 areas are permitted. Side yard setback of 10 feet is required for all free-standing accessory structures. All lots must comply with all other rear and front yard setbacks. BACKGROUND The final plat for The Woods at Longacres 4th Addition subdivision including this property was approved on April 14, 1997. The house was constructed in 1998. The house lies on a comer lot and, therefore, has two front yards with setbacks of 30 feet and two side yards with setbacks of 9 feet. Planning Case #04-28 Ruelle Variance September 7, 2004 Page 3 ANAL YSIS The subject property is a comer lot located southwest of the intersection of Longacres Drive and Lodgepole Point. The lot contains a single-family home, has an area of 26,136 square feet, and is zoned Planned Unit Development-Residential (PUD-R). Because the property is a comer lot it has no rear yard, rather, it has two front yards (those having street frontage) with setbacks of 30 feet and two side yards with setbacks of 9 feet. The southern comer of the house is set back exactly 9 feet from the southern property line (side yard); however, the house was built at an angle of approximately 45° to the south property line. The patio door which would access the three-season porch is located 5.75 feet from this southern comer leaving little room to build out from the structure given its angle to the south lot line and its setback. Planning Case #04-28 Ruelle Variance September 7, 2004 Page 4 Staff realizes that the portion of the three-season porch which will require a variance is trivial (4.68 square feet); however, in order to recommend approval of a variance, a hardship must exist. Staff has determined that the applicant could build a three-season porch and deck without the need for a variance. The owners have chosen a three-season porch design that would encroach on the required 9-foot side yard setback. It would be possible to build a three-season porch that meets required setbacks by choosing a smaller design or angling it. Therefore, staff believes this constitutes a self-created hardship. / / / l /' / 6.76'y I ¡ / = 9 foot Setback / i I = = Living Area - - ¡ I I l' .= Eaves Overhang / Staff has reviewed variance applications filed for properties within 500 feet of 7200 Lodgepole Point. The following are variances that have been reviewed: Case # Address Variance Notes 00-05 7163 Fawn Hill Road 4' side & less than 20' separation Denied for screened porch 03-14 2350 Hunter Drive 26' wetland setback Approved for patio Planning Case #04-28 Ruelle Variance September 7, 2004 Page 5 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 literal enforcement of the ordinance does not create a hardship because the design of the three-season porch can be altered to maintain the required side yard setback. A reasonable use is defined as the use made by a majority of comparable property within 500 feet. In this case, because it is in a PUD-R zoning district, a reasonable use is a single-family home with a two-stall garage. The property owner currently has reasonable use of the site. Approving this variance will depart downward from pre-existing standards and set a precedent. 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 conditions upon which this variance is based are applicable to all properties in the PUD-R zoning district. 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 three-season porch will increase the value of the property. However, staff does not believe that is the sole reason for the request. d. The alleged difficulty or hardship is not a self-created hardship. Finding: The applicant has chosen a three-season porch design that will not maintain the required setback and, in doing so, has created the hardship. 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. Finding: The granting of a variance will not be detrimental to the public welfare or injurious to other land or improvements in the neighborhood. 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. Planning Case #04-28 Ruelle Variance September 7, 2004 Page 6 Finding: The proposed variation will not impair an adequate supply of light and air to adjacent property or substantially increase the congestion of public streets or increase the danger of fire or endanger the public safety or substantially diminish or impair property values within the neighborhood. RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends that the Planning Commission adopt the following motion: "The Planning Commission denies a 2.25-foot side yard setback variance from the 9-foot side yard setback creating a 6.75 foot setback to permit the construction of a deck and three-season porch at 7200 Lodgepole Point, Lot 16, Block 4, The Woods at Longacres, 4th Addition, as shown on the plans stamped 'Received August 05,2004' based on the findings of fact in the staff report and the following: 1. The applicant has not demonstrated a hardship to warrant a variance. 2. Sufficient buildable area exists on the site at the required setbacks to permit the construction of a three-season porch. Should the Planning Commission choose to approve the variance, staff recommends that the Planning Commission adopt the following motion: "The Planning Commission approves variance 04-28 for a 6.75-foot setback as shown on the plans stamped 'Received August 05,2004' with the following conditions: 1. A building permit must be applied for within one year of approval of the variance or it shall become void. 2. The proposed addition must be built per plans stamped "Received August 05, 2004." 3. The proposed addition must not encroach into the existing 5 foot drainage and utility easement. A TT ACHMENTS 1. Development Review Application 2.

Written description of variance request. Addition of a 3-season porch and deck that would not conform to the city of Chanhassen's 10' minimum required setback distance on a side lot line. Written Justification: 1. The Builder Lundgren Bros did not conform to the City ofChanhassen's 10'-0" Side lot Setback when building this house. 2. The back left comer of the house was originally built 9' -0 from the south side lot line. 3. The house was built at a 30+ degree angle toward the south lot line. The ITont of the house is 42.26' from the property line and the back is 9' -0" 4. Because of the above three, any structure built will immediately impede on the 10' -0" setback see attached plot plan. 5. We have looked at many different options that are neither architecturally appealing nor structurally possible. Options including: a. Angling the 3-season porch. b. Moving the 3-season porch to the north side. c. Moving the sliding glass door and removing window. d. Exchanging property with adjacent property owners. 6. Our home backs up to a pond and wooded area. We currently have a concrete patio that would remain under the proposed 3-season porch. Because of the wetlands are a hatching are for insects, the patio is almost useless after the sunsets. 7. The rear of our house does not back up to any additional homes and the existing wood and pond are a buffer. 8. Steven and Heather Ostermann 7224 Lodgepole Point support the issuance of this variance. The Ostermann's share the south lot line and are directly affected by this variance. They have seen the enclosed elevations and plot plan. There is a large tree that buffers any visual site lines. They are in agreement that the acceptance of this variance has no long-term impact on there property. 9. Only 1'3" of the proposed 3-season porch will extend past the existing 9' -0" setback that the house was originally built. We invite you to stop by our residence and view the existing conditions. rrµ ~~V\v James & Kristin Ruelle Location Map 7200 Lodgepole Point Variance City of Chanhassen Planning Case No. 04-28 Lake Harrison TELEPHONE R1Sr ~ 10/09 /1 -. 7 ::-~<ol 08<00 !.o :: è;¡ I -.:; (¡¡ -A0 I .OJ (...¡ I o - -A ~ I~ r rr-¡- I ~ 0 ;:z I' I~ G) '" » I 1$ () I I'" ;0 I I rr1 I I (j) I I I I!

On September 7,2004, the Chanhassen Planning Commission met at its regularly schedule meeting to consider the application of James and Kristen Ruelle for a side yard setback variance to construct a three-season porch and attached deck located at 7200 Lodgepole Point. The Planning Commission conducted a public hearing on the proposed variance that was preceded by published and mailed notice. The Planning Commission heard testimony from all interested persons wishing to speak and now makes the following: FINDINGS OF FACT 1. The property is currently zoned Planned Unit Development - Residential (POO-R). 2. The property is guided by the Land Use Plan for Residential - Low Density. 3. The legal description of the property is: Lot 16, Block 4, The Woods at Longacres, 4th Addition. 4. 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. The literal enforcement of the ordinance does not create a hardship because the design of the three-season porch can be altered to maintain the required side yard setback. A reasonable use is defined as the use made by a majority of comparable property within 500 feet. In this case, because it is in a POO- R zoning district, a reasonable use is a single-family home with a two-stall garage. The property owner currently has reasonable use of the site. Approving this variance will depart downward from pre-existing standards and set a precedent. b. The conditions upon which this variance is based are applicable to all properties in the POO-R zoning district. c. The three-season porch will increase the value of the property. However, staff does not believe that is the sole reason for the request. d. The applicant has chosen a three-season porch design that will not maintain the required setback and, in doing so, has created the hardship. e. The granting of a variance will not be detrimental to the public welfare or injurious to other land or improvements in the neighborhood. f. The proposed variation will not impair an adequate supply of light and air to adjacent property or substantially increase the congestion of public streets or increase the danger of fire or endanger the public safety or substantially diminish or impair property values within the neighborhood. 5. The planning report #04-28 Variance dated September 7,2004, prepared by Josh Metzer, et aI, is incorporated herein. ACTION The Chanhassen Planning Commission the variance to allow the construction of a three-season porch with attached deck within the required side yard setback. by the Chanhassen Planning Commission on this 7th day of September, 2004.
