Item 05B <br />Page 2 <br /> <br />A Variance may be granted only in the event that all of the criteria 3 for granting a Variance is <br />met (please refer to the attached Resolution). <br /> <br /> <br />Summary <br />The Mounds View School district has proposed building additions and improvements to <br />Edgewood Middle School, including relocating the bus staging area and driveway access, <br />necessitating a three-lane driveway 38’ in width, which exceeds the maximum 32’ driveway curb <br />cut permitted. <br /> <br />The Community Development Director has approved a preliminary Administrative Variance, <br />subject to affirmation by the Planning Commission. <br /> <br /> <br />Recommendation <br />Staff recommends approval of Resolution 1088-18, affirming the Administrative Variance <br />approval. <br /> <br />The Planning Commission is requested to consider the following options: <br /> <br /> <br />1. Approving Resolution 1088-18, affirming approval of the Administrative Variance. <br /> <br />2. Deny Resolution 1088-18, and redirect the applicant to apply for a Variance. <br /> <br />3. Table the request. If additional information is needed before a decision can be rendered or <br />if more discussion is needed, the Commission can simply move to table the request until <br />such information has been provided. Because of the 60-day requirements (Deadline: Dec <br />17, 2018) the Commission would need to act upon the request as soon as reasonably <br />possible to avoid an inadvertent approval. <br /> <br /> <br />Respectfully submitted, <br /> <br /> <br />________________________ <br />Jon Sevald, AICP <br />Community Development Director <br /> <br />Attachments <br />1.
