NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, the Mounds View Planning Commission makes the following finding of facts related to this request: 1. The retail end space at 2537 County Highway 10 is in need of additional exterior wall-mounted signage on the west and south building faces in order to state what type of store Aldi is. 2.

Circumstances apply to this property in that the duplex is located on only a 100 foot wide lot with a steep grade drop to the backyard, making it difficult to place a garage in the rear yard and be able to access it with a driveway. 2. The literal interpretation of the provisions of the Zoning Code would limit the applicanYs ability to have a two car wide driveway in order to provide enough parking spaces for the tenants. 3. The applicant did not build this duplex, and intends only to substantially improve the property. 4. Granting this variance would not confer upon the applicant a special privilege in that the lot size is a pre-existing condition. 5. The one (1) foot variance is the minimum variance required to alleviate the applicanYs hardship. 6. Granting a variance to allow for a driveway with a one foot setback would not be detrimental to the purpose of the Zoning Code in that due to lack of parking space, some of the tenants are parking closer to the property lines now and causing no adverse impacts. 7. Granting the variance would not impair an adequate supply of light or air to the adjoining property. NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT FINALLY RESOLVED, the Mounds View Planning Commission, based upon the above findings, approves the variance request of Robert Yentsch representing Kinyon Properties, to allow for two driveways with a one-foot setback from the north and south property lines subject to the following condition: 1.

The exceptional or extraordinary conditions relating to the variance request is that the property is a corner lot on a busy street with a sidewalk which is elevated about two feet above the subjecYs backyard. 2.

The applicant cannot control the configuration of the lot intends only to provide some security and privacy for their backyard with the fence. 4. Granting the variance would not confer upon the property owners a special privilege denied to others in the same district due to the unique nature of the existing conditions present on the site. 5. The two-foot variance (six foot tall fence) is the minimum variance that would alleviate the applicants' hardship. 6. The replacement of the fence would not be materially detrimental to the purpose of the Zoning Code or to other property in the R-1, Single- Family Residential zoning district. 7. Allowing the six-foot tall fence in the front yard of 2551 Ridge Lane would not impair the supply of light or increase congestion, nor would it increase the danger of fire, endanger the public safety or diminish property values.

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, the Mounds View Planning Commission makes the following findings about the possible adverse effects of this proposed rezoning request as required by the Mounds View Zoning Code: 1. The current zoning of the lots is R-1, Single Family Residential and R-O, Residential/Office. The requested zoning of the lots is R-4, High Density Residential. 2. According to the Comprehensive Plan, the parcels proposed to be included in the rezoning are designated Mixed-Use PUD on the Future Land Use map. The proposed rezoning would be consistent with the anticipated future land use for this area. 3. The rezoning and the proposed development plan for senior housing should not adversely affect adjacent property owners and would not be out of place on the County Highway 10 corridor, the City's most intensely developed thoroughfare. 4. The proposed rezoning to allow for an independent living, assisted living and memory care senior housing development would help satisfy an under- represented housing choice in the City. NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, based upon the above findings, the information and documents about the proposed rezoning, the report drafted by staff and the testimony of the applicant, and in consideration of any public testimony, the Planning Commission does hereby recommend APPROVAL of the rezoning request made by Select Senior Living.

Zoning Map 2. Proposed Site Plans 3. Staff Report WHEREAS, the purpose of the variance provision in the Zoning Code is to give relief to property owners when the strict enforcement of the zoning code requirements imposes a hardship thereby restricting the improvement of property due to practical difficulties brought about by unique or extraordinary features of the physical property that are beyond the property owner's control; and, WHEREAS, a public hearing was held Wednesday, August 20, 2008, about this variance request; and, WHEREAS, according to Section 1125.02, Subdivision 2 of the Mounds View Municipal Code, the Planning Commission is to review a standard set of criteria, all of which must be satisfied, in order for the city to grant a variance to the Zoning Code. Resolutic�n 892-OS Page 3 NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, the Mounds View Planning Commission hereby makes the following findings of fact related to this request: 1. The property is proposed to be zoned R-4, High Density Residential. 2. The extraordinary circumstances surrounding this property are the unique lot size and shape and the type of housing. The city code does not clearly accommodate the proposed housing. The side yard building setback for senior housing is double what is required of any other multiple family housing developments. 3. Granting the variances would not confer upon the applicant a special privilege in that all property owners are able to apply for a variance to improve the function or appearance of their property. Denying the requests would limit the applicanYs ability to redevelop the property. 4. The special conditions or circumstances necessitating the variance request do not result from the actions of the applicant. The city has not yet addressed in the city code some of the unique characteristics of assisted living and memory care housing, that made it difficult for the applicant to avoid needing variances. 5. The applicant believes that permitting the property to have the requested increased density, reduced unit sizes, reduced parking and encroach into the building setbacks is the minimum variance, as it allows for a well designed project with new housing options for Mounds View residents and fits the architectural characteristics of a residential neighborhood. 6. Granting these variances would not be materially detrimental to the purpose of the Code since the city is in the process of amending the code to address most of these issues. 7. The proposed variance would not impair an adequate supply of light and air to adjacent property or substantially increase the congestion of the public streets or increase the danger of fire or endanger the public safety or substantially diminish or impair property values within the neighborhood. NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT FINALLY RESOLVED that the Mounds View Planning Commission, based upon the above identified finding of facts, does hereby approve the variances requested to increase the site density, reduce the minimum unit sizes, reduce the total number of parking spaces to 76 constructed and 9 proof of parking stalls from the required 112 spaces, and allow a two foot roof overhang to encroach and a four to six foot structure encroachment into the building setbacks for the proposed 96-unit Select Senior Living development located at 2865 County Highway 10 and 7980 & 8020 Groveland Road.

Staff Report NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the Mounds View Planning Commission makes the following findings of fact related to the conditional use permit request: 1. The request is consistent with the Mounds View Comprehensive Plan in that the Comprehensive Plan encourages a variety of housing choices for Mounds View. 2. The senior housing should not be out of place given that it will be on County Highway 10 where higher intensity uses are guided to, and the character of the surrounding area involved is a mixture of housing and commercial uses. 3. The senior housing development should not depreciate the surrounding area. 4. The applicant has sufficiently demonstrated that a need exists for the proposed senior housing development. � m D � C-J 0 � c � � � m < m 0 � � � 7 � N � 0 � � m � � a O -o m n � � rn 0 v � O D c � C � N O 0 � � v� � � o � v� z O �C � O G m � —I � N� m � N. � � � m � .��' °_- O ° m N � `� m m �� O T p Z � r Q � 3m � m O N r o � � m ov � � o v 3 S N �p C� � .G O c n� o �- c �n � G � � � o' 0 N 7 N � Q � nO � -„ Qn� r: � � � n o' o r- c . � <. � � -� v y � s � v O= v c O � � �v m �� m v �. � � v m � _ �� v v �- m � � � O j N � � � - o -� s� � � o m 3 � m � � � c � —�s � v � �� m fn-.
