CITY OF ST. ANTHONY COUNCIL MINUTES June 28, 1977 The meeting was called to order by Mayor Miedtke at 7: 30 P.M. Present for roll call : Sauer, Stauffer, Miedtke, Haik and Sundland Also Present: Jerry Dulgar, City Manager Larry Vickrey, City Attorney Jim Fornell, Administrative Assistant Motion by Councilman Sauer and seconded by Councilman Stauffer to approve the minutes for the June 14, 1977 Council meeting. Motion carried unanimously. Richard Rymarchick reported on actions taken during the meeting of the Planning Board held June 21, 1977. -"He said the Board had unanimously recommended approval of a request for a side yard variance which will allow Mr. and Mrs. James Koski to replace their existing tuck-in garage facing the back of their property with an- other on the side of their home which will allow them to drive in from the street. The addition will protrude three feet in front of the Koski home but will be well within the front yard setbacks required by City ordinance. With the addition the property will maintain minimum side yards on both sides but the total side yard setbacks will be two feet less than the required 15 feet. The letter of inquiry from Leo Lorbeski, the Koski 's neighbor to the north was discussed but Mr. Rymarchick said the Board had agreed that the addition would not have an adverse effect on any other property and felt the Koski 's claim of hardship because of the nature of the alley in back was justified. Councilman Stauffer said she had viewed the property and noted the obvious problem with the garage where it now sets. She said the grade of the land in back is so sloped it would be hard to get into a garage that was placed in back. The Attorney verified the ordinance requirement for a 30 foot front yard setback or an average of adjacent residences front yard setbacks. •
