MINUTES <br />REGULAR PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING <br />OCTOBER 22, 1990 <br />7:30 p.m. <br />Meeting was called to order at 7:35 p.m. by Chairperson Boche. <br />PRESENT: <br />Barry, Boche, Finegan, Duncan, Daykin, Gibson Talbot, Ciernia <br />ABSENT: <br />Nestingen <br />~ ~! <br />~. <br />APPROVAL OF MINUTES <br />Minutes of the August 27, 1990 meeting was unanimously approved <br />as written. <br />REQUEST FROM DAVID & GRACE GORRINGE FOR A VARIANCE FROM 9- <br />2.04(1)(c), THE CORNER SIDE YARD SETBACK TO CONSTRUCT A GARAGE AT <br />1457 IDAHO IN AN R-1 ZONE. <br />City Planner Hoyt briefed the commission on a request from the <br />Gorringe's for a variance of 14 ft. 6 inches from the 15 ft. <br />minimum corner side yard setback required in 9-2.04(1)(c) of the <br />zoning code. The variance is necessary to construct a new two <br />• car 24 ft. by 24 ft. garage with the garage entrance in the same <br />location as the existing garage. She also explained the proposed <br />garage conforms to other setbacks on the street, and that the <br />variance appears to meet all standards for granting a variance in <br />9-15.03. <br />Mr. Gorringe, owner of the property at 1457 Idaho, explained <br />moving the garage back 15 ft. from the property line would <br />require removing the playground, landscaping, fence, and tree. <br />It is now necessary for them to park in the street or driveway. <br />This arrangement makes it difficult for traffic to see around the <br />corner and also leaves their vehicles open to vandalism. <br />Commissioner Duncan made a motion to grant the variance. All <br />were in favor with no opposition. Chairperson Boche then <br />recommended an amendment be attached to prohibit parking on the <br />on the entire garage apron to increase visability from the <br />adjacent alley. After discussion, a motion was made by <br />Commissioner Barry to amend the previous motion granting the <br />variance to include an amendment stating no parking on the <br />northern half of the apron. Five yes, one no. Motion was <br />passed. <br />PRE-APPLICATION PROCEDURE FOR A SUBDIVISION OF TWO EXISTING LOTS <br />INTO THREE LOTS AT 1794 ALBERT ST. AND 1800 ALBERT ST. IN AN R-1 <br />ZONE. <br />• Request was withdrawn. Possibly to be reconsidered at a future <br />planning commission meeting. <br />1 <br />
