Olson, Owner of the property at 2061 West Larpenteur to place a proposed office building ten feet from the west property line was temporarily tabled to allow the next item to be considered. A variance is requested by School District ~~623 to provide two relocatable (portable) classroom buildings at 1393 West Garden Avenue. Mr. Paul Borg was in attendance and advised that the school district has leased as much of the Falcon Heights School Building as possible to generate revenue to help pay for the re-opening of the school. The School site will be leasing space to Vo-Tec 916 and the DAC on a one year lease. The Early Childhood and Family Education program will also be housed at the School site. As a result, additional space will be needed and the use of two portable classrooms has been requested to house a computer lab and the music and art classes. The music and art portable will need the use of running water and a drain. The portable classrooms are one-story carpeted wood structures which are 28' x 34' in size.
