MOUNDS VIEW PLANNING COMMISSION
RESOLUTION NO. 354-92
CITY OF MOUNDS VIEW
COUNTY OF RAMSEY
STATE OF MINNESOTA
RESOLUTION RECOMMENDING MAINTAINING THE REQUIRED FIVE FOOT (5')
SIDE YARD SETBACK FOR IMPROVED, OFF-STREET PARKING AREAS
WHEREAS, the Mounds View Planning commission - at the
direction of the City Council - has conducted a detailed review of
the side yard setback requirements for improved, off-street parking
areas; and
WHEREAS, the Planning commission reviewed the
requirements of the City of Mounds View against the requirements of
communities in the surrounding area; and
WHEREAS, the Mounds View Planning commission found that
the requirements of the city of Mounds View are comparable to those
of the surrounding communities; and
WHEREAS, it is the Planning commission's opinion that the
existing five foot (5') side yard setback for improved, off-street
parking areas is reasonable and appropriate.
NOW, THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the Mounds View
Planning Commission recommends to the city Council that the
existing five foot (5') setback for improved, off-street parking
area be maintained based on the following findings of fact:
1. The location of a large number of utility easements along
side property lines within the City would require the removal
and replacement of impervious surface in the event
maintenance is needed.
2. The five foot (5') side yard setback provides necessary area
for the storage of snow from the impervious surface.
BE IT FINALLY RESOLVED that the Planning commission
directs Staff to forward this resolution to the City Council prior
to approval of the minutes.
