TPC3601 Thurston Avenue N, Suite 100 Anoka, MN 55303 Phone: 763.231.5840 ENCLOSURE Facsimile: 763.427.0520 TPCQPIanningCo.com MEMORANDUM TO: Eric Johnson FROM: Scott Richards DATE: August 24, 2016 RE: Oak Park Heights — Request a Conditional Use Permit for a Storage Building — 5527 Oakgreen Place North TPC FILE: 236.05 — 16.01 BACKGROUND Scott and Christina Mitchell have made an application for a Conditional Use Permit to allow a storage building in the side yard setback at 5527 Oakgreen Place North. The applicants have indicated that there is no room in the back yard, and request to place the shed so that it is adjacent to the side yard driveway. The property is zoned R-1 Single Family Residential District. EXHIBITS The review is based upon the following submittals: Exhibit 1: Project Narrative Exhibit 2: Air Photo of Property Exhibit 3: Building Permit Application with Certificate of Survey Exhibit 4: Building Specifications Exhibit 5: Elevation of Structure Exhibit 6: Floor Plan Exhibit 7: Pictures of House and Shed Location PROJECT DESCRIPTION The property at 5527 Oakgreen Place North is constructed with a single family house with a three stall garage. There are no other detached accessory structures on the lot. There is an existing raised driveway on the side of the house that was constructed prior • to the current owners. The driveway was constructed with a retaining wall directly on the side lot line and within the five-foot drainage easement. The proposed accessory building will be placed on this driveway and will be setback one foot from the property line. The building is 122 square feet and will match the color and architectural style of the house. It would also be within the height requirements of the accessory building section of the Zoning Ordinance. The applicant has requested the Conditional Use Permit in that it is the owners desire to locate the shed on this side of the house with access to the driveway. The covered porch will be used for firewood storage. The back yard of the house in this area is not large enough to accommodate the shed. The shed could be placed on the other side of the lot, but that location would not be convenient for the home owner. Additionally, there are a number existing trees in the back yard. ISSUES ANALYSIS Comprehensive Plan: The property is designated as low density residential in the Comprehensive Land Use Map. The request for a shed is consistent with the Comprehensive policies related to low density land use. Zoning: The property is zoned R-1 Single Family Residential District. The accessory building requirements in Section 401.15. D of the Zoning Ordinance require that the structures be no more than 12 feet in height, five or more feet from side lot lines, eight feet from the rear lot line and six feet from any other structure on the same lot. The proposed building will be less than 12 feet in height (proposed at nine feet), will be one foot from the side lot line, more than eight feet from the rear lot line and six feet from the house. A conditional use permit has been requested to vary from the side lot lot requirement. The criteria for reviewing the CUP request is reviewed later in this report. Drainage The City Engineer has reviewed the plans and visited the site. The garage is to be placed on existing hardcover and should not impact the existing drainage patterns of the driveway. The shed will be placed in the required five-foot drainage easement. If for some reason the City will needs to utilize that drainage easement, the garage and possibly the raised driveway would need to be removed at the owner's expense. Accessory Building Requirements: Section 401.15.D provides a list of requirements for construction of an accessory building on a property. Please find a review of those that apply to this request: 2 3.) The accessory building can be no more than 12 feet in height (midpoint of the gabled roof) unless approved by the Building Official to a total of 17 feet. The proposed garage will be nine feet in height. 6.) The total accessory building area must be less than 1,000 square feet. The total with the existing garage is approximately 834 square feet. 11.) The same or similar quality exterior material shall be used in the accessory building and the principal building. The new shed has a gabled roof and siding that will match the house. Conditional Use Permit Criteria: Section 401.15.C.1.e.5) provides criteria for review of a reduction in a required lot in a yard. A review of the criteria is as follows: a) The reduction of setback requirements is based upon specific need or circumstance which is unique to the property in question and which, if approved, will not set a precedent which is contrary to the intent of this Ordinance. Placement of a detached garage in the rear yard would conflict with existing significant trees and the drainage patterns. b) Property line drainage and utility easements as required by the City's Subdivision Ordinance are provided and no building will occur upon this reserved space. The existing drainage easement was already encroached upon by a raised driveway. The shed will be placed on this existing driveway. It will be the homeowner's responsibility to remove the shed and driveway if required by the City for drainage purposes. c) The reduction will work toward the preservation of trees or unique physical features of the lot or area. Existing trees will be preserved by placing the shed on existing hardcover instead of the rear yard. d) If affecting a north lot line, the reduction will not restrict sun access from the abutting lots. The proposed shed will not impact sun access for the adjoining property. e) The reduction will not obstruct traffic visibility, cause a public safety problem and complies with Section 401.15.6.6 of this Ordinance. The setback of the shed will not create safety issues. 3 t) The conditions of Section 401.03.A.8 of this Ordinance are considered and satisfactorily met. The conditions have been reviewed and City Staff does not see any conflict with this proposed shed. CONCLUSION/RECOMMENDATION Upon review of the request for the Conditional Use Permit, City staff would recommend the shed construction with the following conditions: 1. The applicant shall be responsible to remove the shed and driveway if required by the City for drainage purposes. 2. The applicant shall apply for and receive a building permit for the structure. 3. Any other conditions of the Planning Commission, City Council and City Staff. 4 Julie Hultman *, ' Subject: FW: 5527 Oakgreen place N.
