• <br /> Planning Case No. 438-96 • <br /> Staff Report for April 17, 1996 Planning Commission Agenda Meeting <br /> Page Two of Four <br /> Site Plan <br /> Attachments regarding canopies for other gas stations wihtin <br /> Mounds View <br /> All attachments the applicant provided with application <br /> Background: Municipal records indicate a Gulf gas station was located at <br /> 2280 County Road I in 1954. A building permit from 1954 is <br /> attached for your perusal. In 1983 a steel gasoline tank, a <br /> rebuilt gasoline pump and a light pole were installed at 2280 <br /> County Road I. A sign was taken down in 1987 and a new <br /> sign with the same dimensions, was replaced at the site. <br /> In January 1981, Ordinance No. 300 amended the Zoning <br /> chapter of the Municipal Code to read "Not less than 30 feet <br /> from lot line if lot is on corner . . . " <br /> In December 1983, the Zoning section of the Municipal <br /> Code was amended in Ordinance No. 352. In the • <br /> amendment, minimum yard setback requirements for B-2 <br /> Zoning districts were identified as 30' for front yards and 10' <br /> for side yards. <br /> Following the April 3, 1996 Planning Commission meeting, <br /> Staff researched other canopies for gasoline stations and <br /> could not find a similar case on file. The following <br /> information was found: <br /> Amoco East, 2155 Highway Avenue <br /> Property has a canopy over gas pumps, but staff was unable <br /> to locate specific information regarding the canopy. During <br /> the last meetings, there was discussion from the Planning <br /> • Commission regarding whether two structures could be <br /> located on one lot. In a memorandum to the Planning <br /> Commission dated June 17, 1988, this issue is addressed. <br /> It seems that there was an issue that Planned Unit <br /> Developments allowed "not more than one principal building <br /> located on a lot". Additionally, Section 40 (the old Zoning <br /> Code) required "that an accessory building shall be <br /> considered an integral part of the principal building if it is <br /> connected to the principal building by a covered • <br /> passageway." It was the determination at the time that the <br />
