SUMMARY OF DISCUSSION
Chairperson David Rusten called the Board of Adjustment meeting to order
on Thursday, May 3, 2012, at 5:00 PM in the Council Chamber at City Hall. Voting
members present were Jere Hieb, Jim Pederson, Dick Peterson, a-Mary Kidwiler, and
Rusten. Alternate Seth Hansen was also present. Jason Hoffelt was absent. Others
present were Sarantis Theodosopoulos, Monte VandeKop, Community
Development Director Mike Struck, Planning and Zoning Administrator Dan Hanson,
and others.
Item #3 – Theodosopoulos stated that the current building was in bad shape and
was not worth repairing. The proposed building would be two (2) feet wider than
the old carwash building, but it would not be attached to the laundromat.
Rusten asked about the proximity of the bowling alley to its rear lot line.
Hanson replied two (2) feet and added that the building has a fire-rated wall.
Theodosopoulos remarked that building five feet (5) off the line with his building
would not require a fire-rating.
D. Peterson asked if the garage could be built on the east side of the
laundromat. Hanson responded that it could, but on-premise parking would impact
current, and likely future, uses on the lot.
Item #4 – VandeKop stated he planned to widen his approach after a street light
was moved. He also wanted to pour a concrete pad next to his driveway.
D. Peterson felt the size of the lot was a factor in his decision to approve the
variance. He felt any impact would be minimized due to how large the lot was.
The meeting was adjourned.
