City Council Regular Meeting Minutes August 27, 1996 Page 6 1 Motion by Marks, second by Wagner to approve the Conditional Use Permit request for 2 expansion of use of the St. Anthony Health Care Center contingent upon obtaining 3 approval of the parking setback variance, lot coverage variance, rear yard setback 4 variance, and side yard setback variance. 5 Motion carried unanimously. 6 b. Parking Setback Variance 7 C. Lot Coverage Variance 8 d. Rear Yard Setback Variance 9 e. Side Yard Setback Variance 10 . Mr. Bergstrom reviewed the Petitioner has filed an application for a 15 foot variance to 11 park in the sideyard setbacks at Foss Road and Chandler Drive. The ordinance requires a 12 30 foot setback when the sideyard is adjacent to the public right-of-way. Parking plans 13 have been submitted that show four parking spaces in the parking setbacks of Chandler 14 Place on Chandler Drive side and St. Anthony Care Center on the Foss Road side. The 15 Petitioner is requesting this variance because the expansion of the St. Anthony Health 16 Care Center will need a minimum of 144 parking spaces on site as required by the City's 17 parking ordinance. Showing parking spaces in the setback allows him to meet the 18 required number of spaces for his facility and proposed addition. The Petitioner feels that getting the variance to park in the setback is a better solution to the parking situation than asking for a variance that forgives the eight parking spaces. 21 Staff and the Planning Commission recommend the parking setback variance request of 22 15 feet be approved. 23 Mr. Bergstrom further reviewed the Petitioner has filed an application for a 25 foot 24 variance to the City's Rear Yard Setback Ordinance requirement. The variance to the rear 25 yard setback and side yard setback are necessary in order to complete the proposed 26 addition. If the variance requests are not approved, the St. Anthony-Health Care facility 27 will not be able to alleviate the crowding conditions that four beds to a room creates, 28 thereby causing an undue hardship to continue to exist. 29 Staff and the Planning Commission recommend approval of the variances. 30 31 Motion by Marks, seconded by Faust,to approve the parking setback variance request of 32 15 feet. 33 Motion carried unanimously. 34 Motion by Faust, seconded by Enrooth, to approve the lot coverage variance to allow 56% lot coverage for the St. Anthony Health Care Center. 36 Motion carried unanimously. 37 Motion by Enrooth, seconded by Wagner, to approve the rear yard setback variance 38 request of 25 feet.
