Mounds View Planning Commission <br />Regular Meeting <br />December 16, 2009 <br />Page 3 <br />Planning Associate Heller indicated that staff trusted the architect to have measured correctly. <br />Commissioner Lang questioned why there was a five-foot setback at all. <br />Planning Associate Heller stated previously in the code there was a one foot setback and the city <br />found there were issues with this setback so it was increased to five feet. <br />Community Development Director Roberts indicated this site plan was somewhat "old school" in <br />that it was an actual drawing, and not a computerized layout, which is typically what is submitted <br />for commercial projects now. He indicated that he does not see any negative issues with this <br />situation. He stated however, he did agree with Chair Stevenson and does not like approving <br />variances after the work has been completed. <br />Commissioner Walsh-Kaczmarek indicated it appears there is still sufficient room for the Alano <br />Society to make repairs to the side of the garage if need be. <br />Commissioner Meehlhause stated he shared in the concerns that Chair Stevenson and <br />Commissioner Lang expressed. However, he believes Mr. Theis has made an honest mistake <br />and has taken care of it. He added that he did not have a problem with approving this variance. <br />Chair Stevenson closed the public hearing at 7:26 pm <br />MOTION/SECOND: Commissioner Cramblit/Commissioner Meehlhause.
