RESOLUTION 2007 - 39 APPROVING A VARIANCE FOR MULTIFEEDER TECHNOLOGY IN THE GENERAL INDUSTRIAL ZONING DISTRICT ON PROPERTY LOCATED AT LOT 3, BLOCK 1, BALD EAGLE INDUSTRIAL PARK 4TH ADDITION WHEREAS, Neal Nordling has requested approval of a variance to construct a monument sign at the front property line where 30 feet is required Lot 3, Block 1, Bald Eagle Industrial Park 4th Addition WHEREAS, the Planning Commission has reviewed said variance at a duly called public hearing on July 26, 2007 and recommends approval. NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT HEREBY RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF HUGO, MINNESOTA, that it should and hereby does approve the variance request to Neal Nordling to permit construction of a sign to be located at the front property line where 30 feet is required based on the following findings: 1. The request is permissible by law. 2. The site is proposed to have infiltration ponds at the entrance on each side of the drive into the property that limit the area of which a sign could be located. The ponds end approximately 60 feet from the front property line to the east. If the sign was placed 60 feet from the property line the sign would not be seen from Fenway Boulevard, this would cause hardship for the property owner. 3. The sign would be located at the property line but will still be 10 feet from the curb of Fenway Boulevard. It is in staff's opinion that there would not be a site distance problem. 4. If the variance is not granted a monument sign would not be easily seen if it is setback passed the infiltration ponds at 60 feet back. 5. There are other monument signs in the area for the surrounding industrial buildings. The variance would not alter the character of the area. 6. The use is allowed in the district. 7. The property is not within the floodplain. 8. The variance would not affect the sewer and water systems. ADOPTED by the City Council this 6th day of August, 7. n, Mayor ATTEST: Mary A6treager, City Clerk
