RESOLUTION 2009-31
APPROVING FINDINGS OF FACT DENYING A REQUEST FOR A
CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT FOR BENJAMIN CARTER FOR AN
ACCESSORY BUILDING UP TO 125% OF THE PERMITTED SIZE IN THE
SINGLE FAMILY DETACHED RESIDENTIAL ZONING DISTRICT ON
PROPERTY LOCATED AT 6128 GOODVIEW TRAIL CIRCLE NORTH
WHEREAS, Benjamin Carter has requested approval of a conditional use permit to allow
the construction of a 325 square foot accessory building on property located at 6128
Goodview Trail Circle North.
WHEREAS, the R-3 zoning district allows for the construction of an accessory building
with the maximum size of 260 square feet.
WHEREAS, the property is legally described as:
Lot 10, Block 2, Oneka Ponds
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission has reviewed said conditional use permit at a duly
called public hearing on August 13, 2009, and recommended approval.
WHEREAS, the City Council at its meeting on September 8, 2009 received the Planning
Commission's recommendation and received input from the applicant.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT HEREBY RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF
THE CITY OF HUGO, MINNESOTA, that it should and hereby does deny the
conditional use permit request of Benjamin Carter for the construction of a 325 square
foot accessory building on property located at 6128 Goodview Trail Circle North based
on the following findings:
1. The spirit and intent of the ordinance is to limit the size and minimize the
appearance of the accessory buildings in the R-3 zoning district. The
maximum size of accessory buildings in this district allows for reasonable
use of the property.
2. The oversized accessory building does not fit with the general character of
the area. The properties in the area do not have accessory buildings of that
size and allowing the oversized building would change the overall
character of the area.
3. The accessory building is proposed in a location that is close to an
adjacent property line where it will be easily seen by the neighbor. There
were no methods of screening or buffering proposed by the property
owner.
