Mounds View Planning Commission October 6, 1999 Regular Meeting Page 3 . property creates a situation that makes development where setback requirements could be met very difficult. In addition, the placement of the buildings on the lots does not allow enough room for a five-foot separation, and the property owner did not create the situation, but is simply attempting to improve the property. Planning Associate Ericson stated that based upon the review of the criteria, the applicant's presentation at the prior meeting, and the Planning Commission's direction, staff has drafted Resolution 591-99, which approves the one-foot sideyard setback for the applicant. He explained that the approval is contingent upon the applicant filing the resolution with Ramsey County and submitting a revised site plan, which indicates the location of the garage that would be allowed with the one-foot setback. Planning Associate Ericson stated the applicant has indicated he does not expect to commence construction of the project during the current building season, therefore, the item can be tabled, however, staff believes that there are no unresolved issues at this point. He stated staff is recommending approval of Resolution 591-99. Chair Peterson inquired if the existing asphalt would be replaced in the same locations. Ericson commented he would not expect this to be the case, however, staff does not yet have a site plan that shows the dimensions and location of the drive areas. He explained that a problem does exist at the site in that there is a telephone pole located on the property line, which makes the ingress • and egress of the property somewhat difficult. He advised staff will review the revised site plan and any proposal to redo the asphalt, to ensure that it complies with the City Code. He added this matter would be brought back before the Commission if there were issues with the driveway and parking area, and this would be considered separately from the garage issue.
