3. The proposed garage would not be out of place given the character and
geography of the surrounding area involved.
4. The proposed garage would not depreciate the neighborhood.
5. The applicant has sufficiently demonstrated that a need exists for the
proposed oversized garage.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the Mounds View
Planning Commission recommends approval of the conditional use permit for the 1,232
square foot garage, with conditions as follows:
1. The garage shall not be used for commercial purposes, living space or other
uses not allowed within the R-1 Single-Family Residential district or by the
Zoning Code. Should the use change for which the permit was granted; the
conditional use permit shall be considered null and void.
2. The new garage shall have the same roof and siding colors as the existing
house and garage, and shall have a similar roof pitch to the existing garage.
3. A minimum of a 6 foot tall privacy fence must be installed and maintained
along the west property line in order to screen the garage from the view of the
adjacent neighbors. The fence must be installed within 6 months of the final
garage inspection date, and must remain in place as long as the second garage
exists.
4. A driveway must be installed that connects the existing driveway to the new
oversize garage within 6 months of the final garage inspection date.
NOW THEREFORE, BE IT FINALLY RESOLVED that The Conditional Use
Permit (CUP) shall become null and void if the work for which the CUP was granted is
not completed within one year from the date of approval unless a petition for extension of
time in which to complete the work has been granted by the City Council.
Adopted this 28th day of May, 2013.
