OPEN MIKE No one appeared under open mike. CONSIDERATION OF VARIANCE REQUEST FOR JOHN P. KENNY DRB APPLICATION #91 -29 Mr. John Kenny of 6299 Red Maple Lane, Lino Lakes addressed the board. Mr. Kenny has lived in the city for about a year and wishes to remove an existing detached garage and replace it with a larger accessory building. The existing garage is 20 x 22 feet and is poorly constructed. Mr. Kenny wishes to replace it with an accessory building measuring 30 x 40 feet, to be of custom design with Anderson windows, overhangs and siding to match the home. Mr. Kenny wishes to use this building to house his collection of antique fire engines, that he collects and restores as a hobby. Mr. King asked Mr. Kenny if he could satisfy the six findings of fact. Mr. Kenny said in regard to item #3, there was no hardship, but could not answer to the other findings. Mr. Chase stated that without meeting the six findings of fact the design review board and the city council could not grant a variance and the application needs to be denied. John Bergeson made the motion to table the request, until later during the meeting, for a variance for John Kenny to give the applicant time to explore other options, one of which was that the applicant try to acquire adjacent wetland from WCCO. Robert King seconded the motion. The motion carried unanimously. 2 1 1 1
