Resolution 17 -45• a Resolution to Approve a Request to Keep Chickens in an R -1 Zoning <br />17 District at 3626 Belden Drive NE <br />18 <br />19 City Manager Casey reviewed a request letter and stated a coop site plan diagram was received <br />20 from applicants Michael Guest, Kim Borton and Connor. The site plan shows the planned <br />21 location of the coop is in the southwest comer of the rear yard and according to the applicant, <br />22 that corner of the yard is relatively isolated with an 8 -foot fence separating their yard from the <br />23 neighbor to the west and a shed partially blocks the view from the neighbors to the south. Staff <br />24 has reviewed the area and confirmed that these structures exist and will likely obstruct the view <br />25 of the coop from the surrounding neighbors' yards. There does not appear to be a fence <br />26 separating the applicant's property from the property to the south, although there is existing <br />27 vegetation on both properties that will provide some visual screening. Mr. Casey reviewed the <br />28 specifications of the proposed coop and noted the four chickens will be females. Staff has <br />29 reviewed the applicant's materials and based on the reasonable location, dimensions, and details <br />30 provided, do recommend approval of this request to keep four female chickens on the property. <br />31 Staff recommends that the coop location be set back at least 5 feet from any property line as is <br />32 the standard for an accessory structure. Currently setback dimensions are not indicated on the <br />33 site plan. <br />34 <br />35 Mr. Michael Guest, applicant, stated he recently moved to St. Anthony. <br />36 <br />37 Motion by Councilmember Gray, seconded by Councilmember Brever, to adopt Resolution 17- <br />38 045; a Resolution Approving a Request to Keep Chickens in an R -1 Zoning District at 3626 <br />39 Belden Drive NE. <br />40 <br />41 Motion carried 5 -0. <br />42 <br />43 B.
