Item 08B <br />Page 2of6 <br />On May 2511, Staff walked the project, and spoke to several of the affected property owners, <br />some of which verbally requested Variances to keep everything as -is. For example, a <br />homeowner might have a conforming driveway at the property line (e.g. 24' driveway width), but <br />non -conforming at the street (more than 24' width). <br />Analysis: <br />Normally, Variances may be approved by the Planning Commission if the Variance request <br />meets all of the six criteria listed in the City Code 2, and Minnesota Statutes3. This criteria is not <br />applicable for street reconstruction projects. The Council may take any action it wishes. <br />Address <br />Owner <br />Non -conformity <br />Staff's Recommendation <br />3001 <br />Co Rd H2 <br />Rory Labelle <br />2nd Driveway <br />Keep as is, but require owner to pay <br />for second driveway apron (PIP). <br />Permits were issued for the 2nd <br />driveway in 1996 and 2003. <br />7660 <br />Spring Lake Rd <br />Marcus Curtis <br />2nd Driveway <br />Remove south driveway.
