310.9 Wilson. St. NE'.: <br /> St`.- Anthony, . MN: 55418 <br /> July 190 1984 <br /> The Honorable Members of the City Council <br /> St. Anthony City Hall <br /> 3301 Silver Lake Road N.E. <br /> St. Anthony, MN. 55418 <br /> REs Encroachment exception versus a variance <br /> for construction of dining room bay <br /> Dear Honorable nouncilmemberss <br /> My husband and I have talked with Mike McGinn, a licensed, <br /> bonded contractor doing work in the City of St. Anthony and <br /> outlying areas for 15 years, regarding our desire to con- <br /> struct a bay in our dining room. <br /> Mr. McGinn has assured us that by extending the south wall <br /> out twenty inches a length of 13'6,, without changing the roof <br /> line, and constructing a recess cantilever style butting two <br /> 42"..w.indows together at the center, or an eight foot bay <br /> window with a glass window on the end/ends., constitutes the <br /> construction of a bay. <br /> Included you will find a drawing taken from "Practical <br /> carpentry" which shows the details of framing for a bay in a <br /> dining room. <br /> According to the dictionary, a bay can be a window or series <br /> of windows forming a bay or recess in a room and projecting <br /> outward from the wall in a rectangular, polygonal or curved <br /> form. We will be using the rectangular form for our recess/bay. <br /> We feel we have the right to an encroachment exception and <br /> therefore do not need a variance to complete our construction. <br /> Thank you for your consideration of this matter. <br /> yours truly. <br /> Eugene and pat DeKanick <br /> contrac or <br /> Pn <br />
