DORSEY & WHITNEY LLP <br /> Planning Commission <br /> August 19, 1996 <br /> Page 2 <br /> If a different interpretation were made, I would imagine there could be <br /> many houses in St. Anthony where people could try to avoid the setback <br /> requirements if the permit provisions of Subd. 6 were deemed to apply to attached <br /> garages. <br /> I also note that Subd. 4 of the same Section provides that no eave or <br /> other portion of an accessory building may be closer than 5 feet from any other eave <br /> or other portion of a principal structure. If the old garage is going to remain behind <br /> the new attached garage, this five foot mininum setback would need to be observed. <br /> Since the attached garage is considered a part of the "principal structure" the old <br /> garage could not be any closer than five feet to the new garage. <br /> I hope this answers the questions that have been raised in this matter, <br /> but if you should have any further questions, please let me know. <br /> Very tr ly yours, <br /> • <br /> William R. Soth <br /> WRS/ms <br />
