MEMORANDUM111/0 <br /> TO: Planning Commission <br /> FROM: Staff <br /> DATE: August 22, 1975 <br /> RE: 1. Donald R. Balk, 2656 County Road J . <br /> 2. Sylvia Thomas, 5323 Jackson Drive <br /> 1. As of this morning, August 22, 1975, we have not received a preliminary <br /> plat from Mr. Balk. Therefore the staff, city engineer and other <br /> approving agencies have not been able to review the plat prior to <br /> the Planning Commission. <br /> 2. This individual initially tasked to be on the agenda but paid no fee. He <br /> may still come to the meeting and ask to be heard. <br /> A contractor applied for a permit to build a garage for Sylvia Thomas, <br /> 5323 Jackson Drive without indicating there was an existing garage. <br /> Ther permit was made out and the contractor laid footings and it was <br /> not until the building inspector went to inspect footings that it <br /> 111/1 was discivered there was already a garage. (12 X 20 approximately) . <br /> The owner came into city office to apply for a variance to have the <br /> new driveway closer than five feet to the lot line (she had permission slip <br /> from her neighbor and thought that was all there was to it) . <br /> Mrs. Thomas was informed by staff that in addition to a variance she <br /> would also need to apply for special use permit to have present garage <br /> for an amount of time deemed reasonable to remodel as part of house, which <br /> she indicated as her intention. After further discussion it was discovered <br /> that she really wanted to use the first garage for the car in the winter <br /> because the new garage would be hard to get to in the snow and she doesn't <br /> bikes, snowmobiles, etc. , which they do not have room for in present <br /> garage. They also have an accessory building at the present time. <br />
