PERMITTED ACCESSORY 'USE PERMIT REQUEST FROM WILLIAM BROWN, 1808 ASBURY ` William Brown, 1808 Asbury, requested a Permitted Accessory Dse Fermit to remove a brick/stone fireplace and construct in its place a utility shed located in the rear of his lot. This utility shed will be constructed within setback restrictions, placed in an unobtrusive location in the rear of his lot on a cement slab, have wood paneled exterior and be 8' long by 8' vide by ?' high. After a discussion, • Duncan moved, seconded by Nestingen approval of the Permitted Accessory Use Permit. The motion carried unanimously. PERMITTED ACCESSORY USE PERMIT REQUEST BY THE ROSEVILLE SCHOOL DISTRICT AT FALCON HEIGHTS ELEMENTARY SCHOOL Gary Ruud, a Falcon Heights Elementary School parent, presented a plan to build a 8' by 8' utility shed to house aluminum cans that the school collects as a fundraising tool to purchase playground equipment. After a discussion on location, construction materials and the use of corrugated steel for roofing material,-Barry moved, seconded by Nestingen that the Permitted Accessory Use Permit Request be approved with the condition that the roof be painted a dark color in the spring of 1990. The motion carried unanimously. PUBLIC HEARING ON THE PROPOSED COMPOSTING ORDINANCE, 9-4.01, SUBDIVISION 9-4.OI, SUBDIVISION 3 k AND 9-2.04, SUBDIVISION l k Finegan opened the Public Hearing at 7:50 P.M. and presented the Affidavit of Publication. Richard Wankel, 1825 Fairview, asked whether the proposed composting ordinance would affect his placing leaves in a temporary storage area to be plowed into the ground in the spring. Wallin replied that it was not the intent of the City to intrude on the practices of its citizens but provide a way to accomplish these kinds of items in a consistent manner. . Daykin arrived at 8:00 P.M. The Public Hearing was closed at 8:10 P.M. ~ I MINUTES REGULAR PLANNING COMMISSION NOVEMBER 6, 1989 PAGE 2 Further discussion on the wording changes requested by the Solid Waste Commission and the fact that they are planning to write their own composting brochure followed. After more discussion an yard waste collection, the Commission moved to another agenda item. PERMITTED ACCESSORY USE PERMIT FROM GARY AFFOLTER, 1892 BOLTON Mr. Affolter, 1$92 Holton, requested a Permitted Accessory Use Permit to construct a~8hed attached to his garage for storage of his boat Suring the winter months. He distributed his application for Consideration of Planning Request Form with attachments describing location and type of construction. Discussion ensued whether or not the structure constitutes~a shed or a garage addition and, .therefore, whether the Permitted Accessory Use Permit was necessary. Planner Hoyt Taff agreed that the structure initially appears to be an addition to an existing garage. However, she interpreted it as a storage shed because it did not fit the definition of a garage,_ it has a separate entrance and it is built specifically for storing a boat. Therefore, a Permitted Accessory Use Permit as well as a building permit, due to its size, is required. Barry moved, seconded by Daykin, to approve the Permitted Accessory Use Permit as requested based upon the description contained in his October 31, 1989 Application for Consideration of Planning Reguest • and attachments; that a building permit would be required and should be taken out forthwith; and work on such structure be completed within a year. A vote was taken. The following voted in favor thereof: Barry, Daykin, Duncan, Finegan, Grittner and Nestingen and the following voted against: Boche. (Boche was of .the opinion that a precedent would be set by approving a structure which is attached to the garage as a Permitted Accessory Use.) The motion carried. DEFINITIONS OF ACCESSORY STRUCTURE IN THE ZONING CODE, 9-3.02(1) an - SUBDIVISION 2 b Staff Planner Susan Hoyt Taff reviewed changes which would clarify portions of the Zoning Code which are il~.ogical, confusing and/or contradictory relating to accessory structures. She recommended exempting attached garages in an R-1 Zone from the Code requirement that the accessory use not extend beyond the front of the principal structure {9-2.04, Subdivision 1{f ). She described several examples of this construction currently within the City. She suggested a size limitation such as a four car garage be considered. Discussion on these points followed. Boche moved the lay the item over but the motion died for the lack of a~second. Black arrived at 8:33 P.M. After further discussion on whether the Commission wanted to address • this issue at this time or request further staff clarification, Finegan moved (he relinquished the Chair to Black) seconded by i MINUTES REGULAR PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING NOVEMBER {, 1989 PAGE 3 .Boche to again lay the item over. After a vote was taken, the following voted in favor thereof: Finegan and Boche, and the following voted against the same: Barry, Black, Daykin, Duncan, and Critter. Motion failed. Then Finegan. moved, seconded by Grittner to approve the idea of eze~upting attached garages in R-I Zones from the requirement in Section 9-2.04, Subdivision 1{f ). .Motion carried unanimously. Grittner was of the opinion that the size of an attached garage located in Lhe front of the house should be limited to 50 percent of the front footage of the home. Staff was .directed to further research the issue and present further data and recommendations to the Commission. A second contradictory definition of accessory structure was clarified. Daykin moved, seconded by Finegan, to delete .the words "and this Code" from Section 9-2.04, Subdivision 1(bj of the Zoning Code. The motion carried unanimously. AMENDMENT TO CHAPTER 5-14.04 OF THE CITY CODE TO CHARGE A RECORDING FEE FOR CONDITIONAL USE PERMITS, VARIANCES AND REZONING INITIATED BY PROPERTY OWNERS Planner Susan Hoyt Taff reviewed the fee schedule in Section 5-14..04 and suggested that charges be added for the recording of variances and conditional use permmits on parcels of land so that the the State 3.s assured that the City is fulfilling its statutory obligations; it would minimize the delay between granting and recording; and it would avoid spending administrative time checksng on whether or not they ~rere recorded. Discussion ensued as to how the City assures such recording is done and what fee is adequate. Boche moved, seconded by Barry, that a minimum $3fl.00 fee be charged for recording variances and conditional uses plus additional charges far the recording when the fee is greater; and that Staff investigate whether the City is charging adequate fees far the rezoning, variance, and conditional use requests. The motion carried unanimously. QNIYERSiTY GROVE NEIGHBORHOOD COMMONS AND LOTS 7 AND 14, WHICH ACT AS A COMl4ONS In response to an inquiry from the University of Minnesota, Boche moved to recos~mend to the City Council that it not purchase the Neighborhood Commons Area and Lots 7 and I4, which act as a Commons, of University Grove. The motion Was seconded by Barry and approved unanimously. CITY EASBl~lENT ON THE EXTENSION OF FOLWELL AVENUE IN AUDITOR'S SUBDIVISION NUI~iBER 90 IN THE UNIVERSITY GROVE NEIGHBORHOOD • Discussion ensued on whether the easement would be needed for street extension, whether it would be needed as a connection for the proposed bicycle/pedegtrian trail as proposed zn the Park and Recreation Plan and whether it should be given with no charge to the Univer€ity. MINUTES REGULAR PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING NOVEMBER 6, 1989 PAGE 4 Boche moved, seconded by Barry, that the Planning Commission support the City Council in their negotiations with the .University of Minnesota to give up only 25 feet of the easement, which would increaBe the size of the lot to 12,090.60 if in doing eo it would be of benefit to the City of Falcon Heights. The motion carried unanimously. PROFESSIONAL INCORPORATED Planner Susan Hoyt Taff updated the Commissioners on the proposal by Professional Ventures, Inc. for the construction of a 65,000 square foot one-story commercial space for the southeast corner of Larpenteur and Snelling. The item was on the City Council agenda for November 8th but is being withdrawn at the request of the Developers. She will keep the Commissioners updated.

A subordinate building or a portion ` of the aoain txulding, which is located on the same lot as the main building and the peapoee of tifiich is clearly incidental to that of the principal building. This definition of nn accessory structure inclod~es attac~~ed garages as an accessory building in all zones because atta~,ed garages are clearly s subordinate use of the principal building. ils~n ooebined with' the following Code sections: 9-2.04 Accessory Buildings and Structures. ~diviaion 1. General. e. Accessory buildings in the buainara and industry districts shall be located any place to tlye s~ewr' oaf the principal building, subject to the Building Oor'!e, ~ the fire za~e regulations. = _ f . Leo detached garages or other aodu~ieioay bnilding shall be located nearer to the .front l+ot 1iz~e than the principal building on that Lot. Applying 9-2..04, Subdivision 1{e) the Code restricts attached garages in business and industry districts to the rear of the principal structure. Zfiis is desirable. IYuck traffic is less visible. and a business facade is care attractive than a garage on the main _ Bowever, under 9-2.04, Subdivision 1(f) no attac2~ed garages in any district can be placed in front of the principal structure, even when all setbacks are maintain. Given the fact that Falcon Woods has number of homes built with the attached garages in front of the principal structure and that it is a fairly comron building style, it might be useful to exempt attached garaoes in residential zones from this requirement. In order to avoid huge garages when setbacks are easily set, I propose lia,iting the size of the garage to a four car garage. - A second definition of accessory structure apQeara in the Code. 9-2.034 Accessory Buildings and Structures i~division 1. General. (b) An accessory txailding shall be cousi8ese~d as an integral part of the principal buildi~~ if it is located less than twelve (12} feet from the principal building with respect Lo X13 and other requirements of the Building Ca3e ar,d this Cade. As it atarxis, this portion of the Code allays any aceeasaLy structure within twelve (12) feet of the principal stn~etta^t to be considered part of the principal structure . It was originally it~t+esded to assure that an accessory structure close to the principal etrvcttse seats the Fire Code .and Un i f onn Bu i 1 d i ng Code . Sowe.ver , the addition of- "arid this tlac3e" creates the following problem`: it conflicts with the other definition • of accessory structure, and, it potentially alloys all accessary structures within tvelue (12) feet of the principal building to be defined as the t principal structure, and subject to rules governing principal rather than accessary atrvctures. Using this definition, an sccessory building could 9o in front of a principal structure_ I recr~es~d tlininntirg 'arid this Q~3e".for clarification. j 1fr~fint D~t~: 12/4/89 CITT OT ~ALCpF tLIA~Tt Air+da Ita:~ P1.ANN IpG CO?QS3 S S I Ot3 , I'f"rx DESCIITTIOla: ..

The second request for a change in the closing time was initiated because their customers after 10;00 P.M. are somewhat older than daytime custoners. They believe the 18-2v year olds Would stay the extra hour if they were open. Resident Mr. Mark Kosanke of 1471 California stated that he hadn't noticed any problems in the neighborhood from JJ'S.
