MEMORANDUM TO: FROM: DATE: RE: FILE NO: BACKGROUND northwest Essoci8ted consultants, inc. Little Canada Planning Commission Stephen Grittman 12 September 1989 Little Canada - Campbell Garage CUP 758.09 - 89.52 Mr. Greg Campbell has applied for a Conditional Use Permit to allow a second garage on his property at 2881 Edgerton. The property is zoned R -1 and is located just north of LaBore Road. There is currently a single family house on the property with an attached two car garage. The proposed structure is to be located just behind the existing attached garage and would be 24 x 36 feet, 864 square feet in area. ANALYSIS A conditional use permit is required for a second accessory building pursuant to Section 903.02O.D.5., where it states that no building permit shall be issued for the construction of more than one (1) detached or attached private garage for each single family dwelling, except by conditional use permit. This proposed building is actually the first detached garage, therefore, making it a second garage or accessory building which requires a CUP. It should be noted that the CUP request is for a private garage and not for commercial use. Commercial uses are not permitted in R -1 zones. The building must meet all lot requirements as outlined in Section 903.020.D.3 where it states that accessory buildings shall not exceed 15 feet in height, shall be six (6) feet or more from any other building or structure on the same lot and shall not be located within a public drainage, utility, or access easement. In no case shall an accessory building, use or equipment be located closer than ten (10) feet to a rear yard or side yard lot line. As shown on the site plan submitted, the accessory building meets all requirements outlined per Ordinance. 4601 excelsior blvd., ste. 410, minneapolis, mn 55416 (612) 925 -9420 fax 925 -2721 Page 17
