SEE ATTACHED EXHIBIT A
Owner: Carol D.Johnson, 6165 Beach Road North
Oak Park Heights,MN 55082
Applicant: same
Site Address: 6165 Beach Road North, Oak Park Heights
Present Zoning District: R-2,Low and Medium Density Residential
Conditional use required as set forth in Ordinance Chapter 401 Section 401.15.D; 401.26.E.3
I. CONDITIONAL USE PERMITS: The property has a four-unit residential dwelling structure.
The City of Oak Park Heights received a request for a Conditional Use Permit from Carol
Johnson to build a replacement garage accessory structure. An existing garage of 468 square feet
will be replaced with a new 768 square foot accessory detached garage structure. Due to the
unique shape and layout of the lot and existing structures, the accessory garage will not be totally
within the rear yard, as it will extend in front of the principle structure. The accessory structure
will comply with side yard setbacks, but is proposed to be placed at 2.4 feet from the rear lot
line, whereas an 8-foot rear line setback is required. The CUP is required to allow a replacement
accessory structure for a multiple family dwelling unit, for the rear yard setback variance, and for
placement of the accessory structure not entirely in the rear yard.
The Planning Commission held a public hearing, reviewed the application, and recommended
approval on July 11, 2019. The City Council reviewed the matter at its meeting on July 23,
2019.
The justification for the reduced setback and partial placement in the front yard, which the
Council found compelling, is that the lot is an odd shape, that the front yard abuts Upper 61'
Street North, resulting in a rear lot line to the north, and the location of the existing principal
structure on the lot leaving no other available area for building an accessory structure in
compliance with the zoning code requirements without a CUP variance to the requirements. The
1
City Council determined to grant the permits requested subject to the terms expressed below.
Amendment 9/22/20: Owner applied to amend the CUP for the removal of condition#5, which
required Owner to add a gabled roof to the existing flat roof 4-plex structure based upon city
zoning code requiring an accessory structure must not exceed the height of a primary structure.
Applicant submits that the existing structure may not adequately support the weight of a pitched
roof, and will create a larger structure that is out of character for the neighborhood.
The City approves the requested conditional use, subject to the following conditions and restrictions imposed by the
July 23, 2019 Resolution of the City Council of the City of Oak Park Heights, and approves the amendment as
amended by the September 22,2020 Resolution of the City Council of the City of Oak Park Heights, as follows:
1. The City Engineer shall review the drainage for the site. The final grading for the proposed
structure shall be subject to review by and approval of the City Engineer.
2. Any exterior mechanical equipment associated with the accessory structure shall be screened.
3. The exterior of the accessory structure shall be finished with siding and in a color to match the
current principal building exterior.
4. The upper level of the accessory structure shall be used for storage and not for habitable space.
5. [DELETED] - - :. - •--- - -- - - - ---• •= • - • - •- - - ..

6. The Applicant will work with the City Arborist to preserve the ash and maple trees shown to be
removed on the site plan as well at the cedar tree on the north property line.
7. An enclosure shall be constructed on the east side of the new accessory structure to enclose all
trash and recycling containers.
8. The applicant shall apply for and receive a building permit for the accessory structure. All
applicable Building Code requirements shall be met.
II. Reference Attachment:
The report of the City Planner dated July 2, 2019 and Owner's site plan approved by the City Council are
annexed hereto as"Exhibit B"by reference.
The report of the City Planner dated September 2, 2020 for the amendment is annexed hereto as "Exhibit
C"by reference.
III. Abandonment: This permit requires continuous use in order to preserve the Conditional Uses granted by the
City under the terms hereof. Any discontinuation or abandonment of the uses permitted hereunder upon the
site for a period of 12 continuous months shall constitute abandonment and void the permit.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF,the parties have set forth their hands and seals.

MEMORANDUM
TO: Eric Johnson
FROM: Scott Richards
DATE: September 2, 2020
RE: Oak Park Heights—Amended Conditional Use Permit for Principal
Building Height—6165 Beach Road Street North
TPC FILE: 236.02 — 19.07
BACKGROUND
Carol Johnson has made an application for an Amended Conditional Use Permit (CUP)
to the approvals granted July 23, 2019 at 6165 Beach Road North. The approvals in
2019 allowed for three Conditional Use Permits, to allow a replacement accessory
structure for a multiple family dwelling unit, for the rear yard setback, and for placement
of the structure not totally within the rear yard. The Amended Conditional Use Permit
has been requested to allow a change to the conditions of the 2019 approvals related to
the height of the principal structure.
The property is zoned R-2 Low and Medium Density Residential District. The principal
structure is a four-unit multiple family dwelling. Multiple family dwellings of four units or
less and their accessory structures are an allowed conditional use in that District.
EXHIBITS
The review is based upon the following submittals:
Exhibit 1: Letter from Carol Johnson —August 11, 2020
Exhibit 2: Exhibit A to August 11, 2020 Letter
Exhibit 3: Site Plan (Aerial Photo)
Exhibit 4: Resolution 19-07-32—July 23, 2019
Exhibit 5: Site Pictures—(5 pages)
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The project description and justification for the Amended CUP from Carol Johnson is as
follows:
This letter is submitted for consideration by the City of Oak Park Heights in support of
my application for an amendment to a Conditional Use Permit (CUP) issued for
construction of a new garage which has now been built on the above referenced
property.
I am asking the City to waive one (1) requirement of the CUP: "5. The height of the
accessory structure shall not exceed the height of the principal structure."
The principal structure is a multifamily residential building (hereafter referred to as "the
4 plex") Several current pictures of the buildings are attached to this letter for reference.
Some of the reasons I am requesting a waiver are the following:
1. Putting a new pitched roof on the 4plex building would place enormous stress on
the existing structure which was constructed in the 1960's when the upper and lower
floors of a two story home were separated and moved to the current location. They
were then joined together side by side to create the existing 4-plea In 1979, the two
halves separated where they had been joined at the ceiling resulting in extensive water
damage to the entire building believed due to the stresses caused by the settling of the
soil under the building. We also still have some visible cracks in the walls and ceilings
resulting from the construction activity on the Hwy. 36/St. Croix River Bridge and also
from the City water and sewer system construction projects.
2. The appearance of the property is esthetically pleasing as is. Putting a huge pitched
roof on the principal structure would be visually overwhelming and unattractive. The
balance presently achieved with the existing trees and landscaping on the property
would likely be lost.
3. There is no practical benefit to make any changes to the existing roof. The spaces
created by a new roof design would be useless. We already have had to redo much of
the wiring and plumbing in the principal building within the current configuration by
tearing out floors and ceilings in the building.
4. The current specifically designed water drainage system on the property would be
impacted and likely require additional accommodations for water runoff problems that
might arise with respect to neighboring properties. Our current design was focused on
avoiding any negative impact on the neighbors.
5. Regarding precedent which may be set by granting my request, this property is
unique in many ways which make the likelihood of opening the floodgates to other
requests for relief of building height requirements very low.
6. The cost of another $100,000 to building an empty shell roof would be an extreme
and unwarranted hardship. The building has been brought up to code with new egress
windows, wiring, plumbing to mention a few and I have complied with everything that
has been asked of me to build a new garage.

ISSUES ANALYSIS
Comprehensive Plan
The property is designated as low density residential in the Comprehensive Plan
Proposed Land Use Map.
Zoning
The property is zoned R-2 Low and Medium Density Residential District. Multiple family
dwellings of four units or less and their accessory structures are an allowed conditional
use in that District. The accessory building requirements in Section 401.15.D.10
(Compatibility) of the Zoning Ordinance require that "the exterior appearance of the
accessory building including roof pitch and style is not at variance with the principal
building from an aesthetic and architectural standpoint." Because of that requirement, a
condition was added to the original CUP conditions that read as follows:
5. The heights of the garage shall not exceed the height of the principal structure.
At the time the CUP was approved in 2019, it was evident that the new accessory
structure would exceed the height of the principal structure which is a flat roof building.
The Applicant had indicated at that time that a pitched roof was going to be added to the
principal structure to match the accessory structure.
A review of all the accessory building requirements is as follows.
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 criteria:
1. Connection with Principal Building. An accessory building shall be
considered an integral part of the principal building if it is connected to the
principal building by a covered passageway.
Comment: The house and garage are not attached.
2. Location. No accessory buildings shall be erected or located within any
required yard other than the rear yard except by approval of a conditional use
permit according to the provisions of Section 401.03 and Section 401.15.D.13 of
this Ordinance.
Comment: A Conditional Use Permit was granted to allow the garage structure
partially in the side yard. The placement of the principal structure on this lot
provides a narrow rear yard that did not allow for a standard two stall garage to
be constructed.
3
3. Height/Setbacks. Accessory buildings shall not exceed twenty (20) feet in
height or exceed the height of the principal structure on the lot. Accessory
buildings shall be five (5) feet or more from side lot lines, eight (8) feet from the
rear lot line and shall be six (6) feet or more from any other building or structures
providing the requirements of the Building Code are met. Accessory buildings
shall not be located within a utility and/or drainage easement unless written
approval is obtained from the easement holder. The setback and height
requirements under this provision may be varied by approval of a conditional use
permit as provided for in Section 401.03 and Section 401.15.D.13 of this
Ordinance.
Comment: A Conditional Use Permit was granted for the rear yard setback.
4. Lot Coverage. No accessory building or detached garage or combination
thereof within a residential district shall occupy more than twenty-five (25)
percent of the area of the rear yard except by approval of a conditional use
permit according to the provisions of Section 401.03 and Section 401.15.13.13 of
this Ordinance.
Comment: The garage complied with this provision with a coverage of 22.9
percent.
5. Number of Structures. No building permit shall be issued for the construction
of more than one (1)private garage or storage structure for each detached single
family dwelling, commercial, industrial, public or institutional building except by
approval of a conditional use permit according to the provisions of Section
401.03 and 401.15.D.13 of this Ordinance. Every detached single-family
dwelling unit erected after the effective date of this Ordinance shall be so located
on the lot so that at least a two (2) car garages either attached or detached, can
be located on said lot.
Comment: Only one detached structure is located on this lot.
6. Size. No accessory building for single family dwellings or combination of
attached and detached accessory buildings shall exceed one thousand, two
hundred (1,200) square feet of floor area, except by conditional use permit as
provided for in Section 401.03 and Section 401.15.D.13 of this Ordinance.
Comment: The accessory structure is 768 square feet.
7. Administrative Approvals. Storage buildings one hundred twenty(120) square
feet or less and in conformance with the provisions of this Ordinance may be
approved by the Building Official without a building permit and may be in excess
of the number of structures allowable in Section 401.15.D.5. above.
Comment: Not applicable.
4
8. Building Permit No building permit shall be issued for the construction of an
accessory building in a residential district when an existing detached garage or
other accessory building is located on the same lot, except by conditional use
permit as provided for in Section 401.03 and Section 401.15.D.13 of this
Ordinance.
Comment: Only one detached structure is located on this lot.
9. Accessory Uses. No accessory uses or equipment such as air conditioning
cooling structures or condensers, swimming pools, and the like which generate
noise may be located in a side yard except for side yards abutting streets where
equipment is fully screened from view.
Comment: Any exterior mechanical equipment associated with the garage will
need to be screened.
10.Compatibility. The same or similar quality exterior material shall be used in the
accessory building and in the principal building. All accessory buildings shall
also be compatible with the principal building on the lot. "Compatible"means that
the exterior appearance of the accessory building including roof pitch and style is
not at variance with the principal building from an aesthetic and architectural
standpoint.
Comment: The exterior of the garage was finished with siding and colors to
match the current principal building exterior. The original intent was to construct
a gable roof on the principal structure to match the garage. The current request
for the Amended CUP will alter the conditions so that the Applicant is not
required to do so.
Conditional Use Permit
The conditional use permit criteria, found in Section 401.03.A.7 of the Zoning
Ordinance, are found as follows:
1. Relationship to the specific policies and provisions of the municipal comprehensive plan.
2. The conformity with present and future land uses in the area.
3. The environmental issues and geographic area involved.
4. Whether the use will tend to or actually depreciate the area in which it is proposed.
5. The impact on character of the surrounding area.
6. The demonstrated need for such use.
7. Traffic generation by the use in relation to capabilities of streets serving the property.
8. The impact upon existing public services and facilities including parks, schools, streets,
and utilities, and the City's service capacity.
9. The proposed use's conformity with all performance standards contained herein (Le.,
parking, loading, noise, etc.).
Comment: The Planning Commission should comment if any of these criteria
will be at odds with the requested Amended Conditional Use Permit. The
5
Applicant has provided reasons in their narrative why the gable roof should not
be required for the principal structure. The impact to surrounding neighbors
would be minimal if the height of the principal structure is not raised, in fact a
gable roof on the multi-family building would likely out of odds with the
neighboring properties. Staff does have some concern related to precedence,
but the fact that the principal structure has been in place for over 50 years as a
flat roof building would reduce the likelihood that this issue would arise again in
the City. If both structures were new construction, there would be no question
that the principal structure would need to exceed the height of the accessory
structure.
Setbacks
No changes to setbacks are required for this request.
Drainage/Utilities
No changes to drainage and utilities are required for this request. If the principal
building is required, the drainage patterns may change and will require review by the
City Engineer.
CONCLUSION/RECOMMENDATION
The Planning Commission should consider the criteria for review of a Conditional Use
Permit discussed above and determine if the amendment is warranted. If the Planning
Commission recommends the request for an Amended Conditional Use Permit to the
approvals granted July 23, 2019 at 6165 Beach Road North related to height of the
principal building, it should consider it with any added conditions.
1. Any conditions of the Planning Commission or City Council.
