SUMMARY OF DISCUSSION
Chairperson David Rusten called the Board of Adjustment to order on
Thursday, October 21, 2010, at 5:00 PM in the Council Chamber at City Hall.
Members present were Larry Klingbile, Matt Kurtenbach, Jay Vanduch, a-Jim
Pederson and Rusten. Dick Peterson and a-Jason Hoffelt were absent. Also
present were Denny Langland, Bonnie Lievan, Larry Franklin, Community
Development Director Mike Struck, Planning and Zoning Administrator Dan
Hanson and others.
Item #3 –Langland stated that he had an unusually shaped lot. He wanted to
build onto his house to increase his storage space. A former owner had built an
addition onto the house and converted the original garage stall into an office.
He also had a carport on his lot. Bonnie Lievan, a neighbor, supported his
request. She felt the request was appropriate given the circumstances on the
lot.
Vanduch was concerned about sight lines from the neighbor’s driveway
to the south. Pederson concurred. Langland remarked that the garage doors
to the addition would face north and the area between the east wall of the
garage and the sidewalk would remain grass.
Item #4 – Larry Franklin, Director of ADVANCE, stated all the existing parking on
the lot was located off the alley. The rear yard area also had a dumpster and a
storage shed so parking was at a minimum. The parking area was also used for
snow storage in the winter time. Two trees were removed in the northwest
corner. He wanted to keep the rest of the rear yard in grass for the tenants. The
one additional parking space would be hardsurfaced.
Pederson felt the snow could be hauled away to provide more on-
premise parking. Vanduch remarked that snow could be pushed onto the
green area in the winter. Franklin responded that concrete wheel stops would
make that difficult. Rusten asked what the actual parking needs were. Franklin
replied 5 spaces. Kurtenbach asked about the front yard ordinance. Hanson
answered that the corner property had two front yards and they extended from
the building walls to the sidewalk for the entire length of the north and east
sides.
