January 24, 1977 Page 3 <br />Mrs. Bonin presented the Council with a list of people who have signed <br />a petition saying they did not have any objections to the metal building. <br />She explained that they did not know that a temporary building required'. <br />a building permit. They are using the building for storage and a work- <br />shop for her Son's projects. They are asking to keep the building <br />because they have two lots and the building is back far enough. They <br />will put a fence around it and plant some trees too. <br />Mayor Pickar reviewed the Planning Commission minutes regarding this <br />matter. They denied the request because they felt it would establish <br />a precedence of oversized buildings being allowed after they are up. <br />Mrs. Bonin stated that they consider it to be a storage building, not <br />a garage. The City considers it to be part of the garage because it <br />is attached to the garage. Mrs. Bonin stated that she did not think <br />allowing this would be setting a precedence because the Police are <br />patrolling area all the time and would see a building before it is <br />finished. Her son will graduate in one year from college and the <br />building will then be used only for storage. The building was finished <br />a few years ago. <br />Mayor Pickar stated that this building would be oversized as a detached <br />storage building too. <br />Councilmember Baumgartner reviewed the list of the property owners that <br />Mrs. Bonin presented. <br />Councilmember Ziebarth stated that the original request was to build <br />a 26x25' garage, which was oversized at the time of the request. When <br />this building was actually built it was 26'x28'. Mrs. Bonin stated <br />that she was not sure if the request was wrong or the garage was built <br />wrong. The metal building currently in question is 14.51x28'. Council- <br />member Ziebarth stated that it concerns him that the Bonin's weren't <br />aware that the metal building would create some problems since they <br />knew that their garage was oversized to begin with. <br />Mrs. Bonin stated that they considered the metal building to be a <br />temporary building thdt didn't require a permit. The only reason that <br />it is attached to the garage is that it only has three sides. <br />Mayor Pickar stated that the Planning Commission denied the variance <br />and the Bonins were directed to take the building down no later than <br />December 28, 1976. The Bonins appealed the decision within the 60 <br />day period. <br />Councilmember Baumgartner stated that he was having a difficult time <br />with the fact that the Bonins asked for a variance for the original <br />oversized garage but not request a variance for the addition to it. <br />Mrs. Bonin stated that they consider it as two buildings, not an <br />addition. <br />
