Mounds View Planning Commission June 18, 2003 <br />Regular Meeting Page 2 <br />________________________________________________________________________ <br /> <br />5. Consideration of a Conditional Use Permit Request for an Over-Sized Garage at <br />5220 Edgewood Drive. <br /> <br />Community Development Director Ericson indicated that this is a request for an oversized <br />garage at 5220 Edgewood Drive. He then indicated the dimensional requirements of the Code <br />have been met and Staff is recommending approval. <br /> <br />Director Ericson indicated that the garage would be 1,148 square feet and that is within the <br />allowed accessory structure limitations based on the backyard area. He then indicated that the <br />applicants have a demonstrated need for the garage as they have a 35-foot RV that they would <br />like to park in the garage rather than in the driveway. <br /> <br />Director Ericson read the stipulations contained in the Resolution recommending approval. He <br />then indicated that this item would be on the Council’s agenda for public hearing on Monday, <br />June 23, 2003. <br /> <br />Acting Chair Miller asked who would verify whether there was a violation of the CUP <br />requirements. <br /> <br />Director Ericson indicated that Staff acts upon complaints of neighbors and, if there was one, <br />then Staff would determine what the situation is and follow the appropriate procedure. <br /> <br />Commissioner Johnson asked for clarification on the power line requirement, as he had not seen <br />that required before. <br /> <br />Director Ericson indicated that power lines do not usually run across a building like in this <br />situation. He then indicated that Staff checked and that is the required spacing. <br /> <br />Commissioner Zwirn asked for an explanation of why the height of the garage is measured to the <br />midpoint of the trusses and where that measurement would be. <br /> <br />Commissioner Johnson drew a diagram of the point where the trusses are measured. <br /> <br />Commissioner Zwirn asked how high the apex of the roof of the house is. <br /> <br />Mr. Goettsch indicated that the height of the garage and house are almost the same. <br /> <br />Commissioner Zwirn asked if the new configuration of the garage would allow room to pull into <br />the garage. <br /> <br />Mr. Goettsch indicated that there is room to pull the vehicles into the garage. <br /> <br />Commissioner Zwirn asked if the concrete slab would be removed. <br /> <br />Mr. Goettsch indicated that he would be adding on to the existing concrete slab.
