. MEMORANDUM <br /> TO: PLANNING COMMISSION <br /> FROM: PAUL HARRINGTON, PLANNER <br /> DATE: July 15, 1994 <br /> SUBJECT: VARIANCE REQUEST, TOWNSEDGE TERRACE <br /> 5001 OLD HIGHWAY 8 <br /> In March of this year, Townsedge Terrace Manufactured Home park <br /> made application with the City for a variance to allow the <br /> construction of a 2000 square foot storm shelter on their property <br /> at 5001 Old Highway 8 . The requested variance would allow <br /> construction of the Shelter at an 11 foot setback where a 30 foot <br /> setback is required by the Municipal Code. Following discussion at <br /> the Planning Commission level , representatives of the Park were <br /> asked to explore other options relating to the siting of the <br /> structure on the property. The attached letter dated July 13 , <br /> 1994 , was provided by the applicant in response to that request. <br /> Staff has also contacted the Mounds View Police Department to get <br /> their input on the location of the shelter. It is their opinion <br /> that any on-site shelter is a vast improvement over the current <br /> emergency shelter plan which requires that the residents of the <br /> Park travel to City Hall to obtain shelter. <br /> I have included a copy of all materials originally received as part <br /> of this application as well as the July 13 , 1994 letter. A copy of <br /> the site plan will be available Wednesday Evening. <br /> • <br />
