MAYOR <br />Bill Blesener <br />COUNCIL <br />Jim LaValle <br />Ricic Montour <br />Barbara Allan <br />John Reis <br />515 Little Canada Road, Little Canada, MN 55117-1600 ADMINISTRATOR <br />(651) 766 -4029 / FAX: (651) 766 -4048 Joel R. Hanson <br />www. ei.little- Canada. mn. us <br />MEMORANDUM <br />TO: Mayor Blesener and Members of the City Council <br />FROM: Kathy Glanzer, City Clerk <br />DATE: December 9, 2005 <br />RE: <br />Variance for Horseshoe Driveway <br />601 East County Road B -2 <br />Mike and Heidi Murphy <br />At Mr. Murphy's request, I reviewed the files for the attached addresses to determine <br />what history might exist relative to the horseshoe driveways at each of these sites. I also <br />reviewed the 1964 Zoning Code and the 1980 Zoning Code, and determined that there <br />was no prohibition of horseshoe driveways under the 1964 Code. The 1980 Code <br />establishes the limitation of one curb cut per single- family property. <br />Therefore, as you can see from Mr. Murphy's list, it appears there are five homes <br />constructed after the 1980 Code went into effect that have horseshoe driveways (2437 <br />Sunset, 752 LaBore, 2465 Edgerton, 2441 Edgerton, 663 County Road B -2). Of these <br />five, only the site plan /survey for 2437 Sunset Court showed the horseshoe driveway at <br />the time the building permit was issued; an obvious error on the part of City staff. Please <br />also be advised that there have been requests since the 1980 Code was adopted for <br />horseshoe driveways that were denied by staff. <br />
