MINUTES PLANNING COMMISSION NOVEMBER 12, 1992 Mr. Pazderski, property owner in the area, felt that the house proposed was too large for the lot. Pazderski also had concern that the garage would face north and the driveway would be near the cul -de -sac. Pazderski pointed out that there are already three driveways emptying out on the cul -de -sac. Keis asked about a five foot setback on the east property line in order to lessen the variance on the west property line. The Planner stated that this was discussed, however, did not feel it was an ideal situation since there would then be a variance on both sides of the house, rather than just one. Garske suggested that the house be moved further south. Pedersen pointed out that the house would then be out -of -line with the others on the street. Garske did not feel that would be a problem since it is a corner lot. Ms. Ballenthin stated that their concern is that there could be a lot cars parked in the driveway, which would reduce visibility at the corner. Carson felt the best way to build on the lot and address the concerns raised would be to place the garage on the south end of the lot. Carson asked if the Planning Commission could dictate the layout of a house on a lot. The Planner reported that he would prefer to address the layout as part of the variance action. The Planner felt that if the variance being requested is approved based on the house design proposed, a stipulation should be included in the approval prohibiting the property owner from infringing any further into the corner site line. DeLonais questioned whether or not the Planning Commission should act on this matter since the applicant is not present. The Planner replied that the Planning Commission can act on the request based on the site plan submitted. Page 2
