Mounds View Planning Commission October 2, 1996 <br /> . <br /> Regular Meeting Page 8 <br /> property line. Director Sheldon showed the <br /> Planning Commission pictures of the property. <br /> Chair Peterson again mentioned to the <br /> applicant that there are other alternatives to <br /> maintaining the shaded areas of his property. <br /> Mr. Manning informed the Commission that the <br /> neighbor's house is eighty feet away, they have <br /> at least 100 pine trees, and you can't hear or <br /> see him and that she didn't even know who he <br /> was when he went to the door to get <br /> permission. <br /> Ruth White, the adjoining neighbor at 2917 <br /> County Road I, addressed the Planning <br /> Commission and indicated that she is the only <br /> one affected by this request. She informed the <br /> • Commission that Mr. Manning already has a big <br /> driveway and there are always numerous cars <br /> parked there and that he parks up against her <br /> fence. She was not quite sure what he now <br /> has for a parking surface there. She indicated <br /> that her fence is not on the property line and <br /> she believed he could even be parking on her <br /> property since he parks right <br /> up to the fence. She indicated that her <br /> property is a big vacant lot and that at some <br /> time this lot could be sold and someone else <br /> would be living there. She further explained <br /> that she objects and thinks the driveway should <br /> be five feet from the line. She agreed that he <br /> does have a need for extended parking but <br /> thinks that gravel could be used. She would <br /> like consideration used for the people in the <br /> future who will be purchasing the lot and <br /> building a home. <br /> Commissioner Brasaemle confirmed a <br /> comment from Ms. White regarding the use of <br /> • gravel and wondered if she would object to <br /> having it put to one foot from the property line. <br />
