RESOLUTION NO. 354-92 <br /> CITY OF MOUNDS VIEW <br /> COUNTY OF RAMSEY <br /> STATE OF MINNESOTA <br /> RESOLUTION RECOMMENDING MAINTAINING THE REQUIRED FIVE FOOT (5' ) <br /> SIDE YARD SETBACK FOR IMPROVED, OFF-STREET PARKING AREAS <br /> WHEREAS, the Mounds View Planning Commission - at the <br /> direction of the City Council - has conducted a detailed review of <br /> the side yard setback requirements for improved, off-street parking <br /> areas; and <br /> WHEREAS, the Planning Commission reviewed the <br /> requirements of the City of Mounds View against the requirements of <br /> communities in the surrounding area; and <br /> WHEREAS, the Mounds View Planning Commission found that <br /> the requirements of the City of Mounds View are comparable to those <br /> of the surrounding communities; and <br /> WHEREAS, it is the Planning Commissions opinion that the <br /> existing five foot (5 ' ) side yard setback for improved, off-street <br /> parking areas is reasonable and appropriate. <br /> • NOW, THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the Mounds View <br /> Planning Commission recommends to the City Council that the <br /> existing five foot (5' ) setback for improved, off-street parking <br /> area be maintained based on the following findings of fact: <br /> 1. The location of a large number of utility easements along <br /> side property lines within the City would require the removal <br /> and replacement of impervious surface in the event <br /> maintenance is needed. <br /> 2 . The five foot (5' ) side yard setback provides necessary area <br /> for—the—storage of snow from the impervious surface. <br /> BE IT FINALLY RESOLVED that the Planning Commission <br /> directs Staff to forward this resolution to the City Council prior <br /> to approval of the minutes. <br /> Adopted this 2nd day of December, 1992 . <br /> (ATTEST) <br /> Chairman <br /> (SEAL) <br /> Planner <br />
