A variance for 20 feet on the front setback (Phelps Road) shall be approved allowing a setback of 30 feet. The variance setback requested on the west property line is denied. 7.

The Planning and Zoning Board reviewed this item and recommended approval of the site plan with the conditions outlined and approve the variance on Phelps Road and denial of the variance request on the west property line. The new building will face the realigned Otter Lake Road. Therefore, AnnConstruction is required to make the face of the building look like it will front on Otter Lake Road. The staff and the Planning and Zoning Board are trying to make sure that everything fits into what the City is planning.

Mr. Wessel said he would like to keep all options open. Everything depends on what happens to the west of this property. Council Member Kuether moved to approve the site plan as outlined. Council Member Neal seconded the motion. Motion carried unanimously. Council Member Kuether moved to approve the variance on Phelps Road only providing the new front door faces the realigned Otter Lake Road. Council Member Lyden seconded the motion. Motion carried unanimously.
