• • Planning & Zoning Board September 11, 2001 Page 6 Mr. Zych stated he was not comfortable with Mr. Piper's analysis of where a landowner on the other lot would or would not build their home. He stated they did not have an elevation map in which to make those conclusions. Mr. Piper indicated where the natural entrance to the cul -de- sac would be located. Mr. Zych asked if he could bring the garage forward. Mr. Piper relied he would run into the setback from the street and aesthetically it would not look appropriate. Chair Schaps asked if he could go deeper with the garage. Mr. Piper replied he could, but it would be a detached garage. Mr. Hyden asked how this would increase the value of both properties. He stated Mr. Piper's property value would increase, but the future home on the other lot he believed would be decreased. Mr. Piper asked if he could get the variance if he went to 10 feet on the garage. Mr. Smyser stated he needed a five -foot setback and if he went 10 feet, there would no need for a variance. Mr. Rafferty stated the variance was clear and he did not see how they could approve this, especially when it would affect any future home on the adjoining lot. Mr. Corson made a MOTION to deny the variance to allow a zero side yard setback for an Accessory Building with denial of variance being based on the staffs report, as well as the neighboring landowner's permission not being obtained, and was supported by Ms. Lane. Motion carried 5 -0. C. PUBLIC HEARING - Molin Concrete, Amended Conditional Use Permit, Amended Interim Use Permit, Site Plan Review Chair Schaps opened the Public Hearing at 7:16 p.m. Staff presented the application by explaining applicant had applied for amendments to the existing conditional use permit (CUP), amendments to the existing interim use permit, and for a site plan review. Staff explained the requested amendments would change several of the conditions that were adopted with previous approvals. The site plan review application was for a new manufacturing building on the site. Staff stated the new building in and of itself required an amendment to the conditional use permit because it differed from what was previously approved. Staff indicated the earliest action in the City's address file was a rezoning in December 1968 and special use permit issued to Molin in January 1969 to construct a concrete plant. The Sherwood Green residential plat was approved in 1978. Amendments to the Molin special use permit were approved for expansions in 1978, 1981, and 1983. In 1984 neighborhood complaints resulted in a task force to study concerns regarding noise, blowing sand, and visual impact. • Staff stated a storage building was approved in 1991, and another building addition approved in 1993. All the expansions included approvals of amendments to the special /conditional use permit.
