Motion made by Kellison, seconded by Peltier to table the request of Jim Bever until July 24, 1996. All aye, motion passed. Lawrence and Kathleen Ehnstrom, 14043 Fondant Avenue North, are requesting to build a 30' X 40', 1200 sq. ft. accessory building which requires an SUP. The structure would exceed the 260 square foot maximum permitted in an SFU district by 940 sq. ft. In addition, the placement of the structure is proposed to be 20 ft. from the rear property line, 10 feet closer than the district allows. The request is being submitted to store a large recreational vehicle and other personal property. Commissioner Malaski arrived. Mick Danhoff, a neighboring resident opposed the oversized building because it exceeded the allowable limit within the zoning district. It was the general consensus of the Planning Commission that the proposed building far exceeded the allowable limits of 260 sq. ft. for an accessory building in the SFU zone. Commissioner Kellison suggested the applicant consider enlarging his garage to the allowed 1,000 sq. ft. Motion made by Schumann, seconded by Peltier to recommend approval of a 776 sq. ft. accessory building constructed with material similar to the residence. AYE: Peltier, Schumann NAY: Kellison, Malaski, Rubenzer, Waller Motion failed. Motion made by Kellison, seconded by Malaski, to recommend denial of the request of Lawrence and Kathleen Ehnstrom, 14043 Fondant Ave., to construct a 30' X 40' accessory structure based on the size of the building and zone of the property. All aye, motion passed
