Owner: Douglas and Meghan Hatalla
15117 651h Street North
Oak Park Heights, MN 55082
Applicant: same
Site Address: 15117 651h Street North, Oak Park Heights
Date Approved: May 27, 2025
Date Issued: August 5, 2025
Present Zoning District: R-1, Single Family Residential
Conditional use required as set forth in Ordinance Chapter 401 Section 401.15.13; 401.26.E.3
CONDITIONAL USE PERMITS: The property has an existing 1,064 sq. ft. single family
residential dwelling structure and existing 8'x10' shed. The subject property is a corner lot, with the
front lot line being Paris Avenue and the secondary front yard being 65th Street North. Because the
lot is on the corner, the front yard setback of 30 feet applies to both frontages. Accessory structures
are required to be located in the rear yard by ordinance but that is not possible given the size and
configuration of this corner lot and placement of the existing home, necessitating a conditional use
permit.
Applicants applied to the City of Oak Park Heights for a Conditional Use Permit and site plan to
build a detached garage accessory structure, originally 28'x40' totaling 1,120 sq. ft., which would
have brought total accessory structure space with the shed to the allowable maximum of 1,200 sq.
ft. Applicants later voluntarily reduced the requested garage size to 25'x35', or 875 sq. feet.
The corner lot has two front lot lines for setback purposes, with both setbacks being 30 feet.
Applicants originally applied for a 21-foot variance from the 30-foot setback that would have
placed the garage just 9 feet from the front property lines as to both Paris Avenue and 65" Street.
Applicants later voluntarily amended their site plan to conform the proposed garage to a 30-foot
setback from 651h Street. As to a 9-foot setback from the Paris Avenue property line, notably the
current home structure is likewise set back 9 feet from the property line on the Paris Avenue side,
therefore the 21-foot variance to allow a 9-foot setback from Paris Avenue for the new garage is
consistent with the placement of the current pre-existing home.
The justification for the reduced setback to Paris Avenue and placement in the front yard, which
the Council found reasonable and justifiable, is that the lot has double frontages, that the front
yard abuts both Paris Avenue and 65`h Street, and given the placement of the 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. Further the size of the
requested detached garage has been voluntarily reduced and its placement in the yard shifted to
meet the 65th street frontage setback by the Applicant to better fit the constraints of this modest
sized lot. The City Council determined via passage of Resolution to grant the permits requested
for the front -yard placement, reduced front -yard setback, subject to the terms expressed below.
The City of Oak Park Heights approved the requested conditional use by the May 27, 2025
Resolution 25-05-I 5 of the City Council subject to the reasonable conditions and restrictions imposed
as follows:
The proposed garage structure of 25 feet x 35 feet is allowed to be constructed in the front
yard, and to be set back nine feet from 65`h Street North and 30 feet from Paris Avenue
North
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.
3. Any exterior mechanical equipment associated with the accessory structure shall be
screened.
4. The exterior of the accessory structure shall be finished with siding and in a color to match
the current principal building exterior.
No kitchens or bathrooms shall be allowed in the proposed garage.
6. The applicant shall apply for and receive a building permit for the structure. All applicable
Building Code requirements shall be met.
7. The City shall ask the County to consider a four way stop at the intersection of 65'h Street
and Paris Avenue North.
11. Reference Attachment:
The Owner's updated site plan as approved by the City Council and the report of the City Planner
dated May 22, 2025 and are annexed hereto as "Exhibit B" 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.

MEMORANDUM
TO: Jacob Rife
FROM: Scott Richards
DATE: May 22, 2025
RE: Conditional Use Permit for Construction of a Garage in the Front
Yard and for Setback at 15117 65fh Street North
TPC FILE: 236.05 — 25.02
BACKGROUND
Douglas and Meghan Hatalla have submitted an application for Conditional Use Permits
(CUP) to allow for construction of a garage at 15117 65fh Street North. The application
is for two Conditional Use Permits, one to allow for placement of the structure in a front
yard and the second for a setback of 9 feet where 30 feet is required from 65fh Street
North. The property is a corner lot and has two frontages/front yards, on Paris Avenue
North and on 65fh Street North. The proposed accessory building was 28 feet x 40 feet
square feet for a total of 1,120 square feet but has been revised to 25 feet x 35 feet to
875 square feet.
The property is zoned R-2 Low and Medium Density Residential District.
The Planning Commission, at their May 8, 2025, meeting, recommended the application
for the Conditional Use permit but added three conditions. The members were
concerned about the setback from 65fh Street and concluded that the structure could be
turned 90 degrees and placed closer to the south property line. By doing that, the
setbacks for the structure could be met and the only Conditional Use Permit required
would be for placing the structure in the front yard. The Planning Commission added
these conditions:
1. The structure shall be turned 90 degrees and placed at the south setback line of
the property.
2. The structure shall be adjusted in size (if necessary) so that the 30 foot setback
from 65fh Street, 30 feet from Paris Avenue, and the five foot setback from the
south property line is met.
3. The City shall ask the County to consider a four way stop at the intersection of
65fh Street and Paris Avenue North.

Exhibit 2: Revised Narrative from Applicants — May 22, 2025
Exhibit 3: Revised Garage Plans
Exhibit 4: Site Plan with New Garage Location
Exhibit 5: Draft Shared Driveway Easement
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The revised project description and justification for the CUPs from Douglas and Meghan
Hatalla is found as Exhibit 2. New plans have also been provided for City Council
review. The proposed structure has been reduced in size to 25 feet x 35 feet or 875
square feet. (Previous size was 28 feet x 41 feet or 1,120 square feet) The structure is
to be placed nine feet from 65th Street, and 30 feet from Paris Avenue.
The Applicants have indicated that they cannot turn the structure 90 degrees and place
it at the south setback line because it would impede on a draft shared driveway
agreement with their adjoining neighbor. The shared agreement would not allow
placement of a structure in that easement area. Note that the garage could be turned
and placed on the south setback line without impeding the shared portion of the
driveway. The adjacent neighbor has supported the Hatalla's location of the garage, but
not the location on the south property line recommended by the Planning Commission.
CONCLUSION/RECOMMENDATION
The City Council should consider the recommendation of the Planning Commission and
the request of the Applicant with the reduced garage size. The Planning Commission
option would only require a CUP for placement in the front yard. The Applicant's plan
would require a setback Conditional Use Permit from 65th Avenue and for the placement
of the garage in the front yard. Resolutions have been provided for both options.
If the City Council is favorable to the request, it should consider the following conditions.
The three additional conditions of the Planning Commission are found in italics.
The City Engineer will review the drainage for the site. The final grading
for the proposed structure shall be subject to approval of the City
Engineer.
2. Any exterior mechanical equipment associated with the garage shall be
screened.
3. The exterior of the proposed garage shall be finished with siding and in a
color to match the current principal building exterior.
4. No kitchens or bathrooms shall be allowed in the proposed garage.
Page 57 of 108
5. The applicant shall apply for and receive a building permit for the
structure. All applicable Building Code requirements shall be met.
6. The structure shall be turned 90 degrees and placed at the south setback
line of the property.
7. The structure shall be adjusted in size (if necessary) so that the 30 foot
setback from 65th Street, 30 feet from Paris Avenue, and the five foot
setback from the south property line is met.
8. The City shall ask the County to consider a four way stop at the
intersection of 65«' Street and Paris Avenue North.

ISSUES ANALYSIS
Comprehensive Plan
The property is designated as low density residential in the Comprehensive Plan
Proposed Land Use Map. The request for the new accessory building is consistent with
the Comprehensive policies related to low density land use.
Zoning
The property is zoned R-2 Low and Medium Density Residential District. The accessory
building requirements in Section 401.15.D of the Zoning Ordinance require that the
structures be in a rear yard, be 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, unless requirements
of the Building Code are addressed.
The size limit for attached and detached accessory building size on a lot is 1,200 square
feet and the accessory buildings cannot exceed 25 percent of the total area of the rear
yard. Exceptions to these provisions can be made by Conditional Use Permit.
The subject property is a corner lot, with the front lot line being Paris Avenue and the
side yard being 65"' Street North. In that the lot is on the corner, the front yard setback
of 30 feet applies to both frontages.
Accessory buildings are required to be in the rear yard and no front yard setback is
specified in the ordinance. In this case, the required setback from Paris Avenue would
need to comply with the principal building front yard setback of 30 feet. The proposed
structure will be set back 30 feet from Paris Avenue, and nine feet from 65"' Street
North, consistent with the setback of the house from 65'" Street North. A Conditional
Use Permit would be required for the setback to 65"' Street and required in that the
proposed structure is in the front yard.
The proposed structure is 1,120 square feet. The ordinance allows for a maximum of
1,200 square feet of the combined size of attached and detached garages and sheds.
There is an existing 8 feet x 10 feet storage shed on the property. The total square feet
of detached structures will be 1,200 square feet.
While the size of the structure is consistent with the ordinance, the Applicants are
asking for a setback of 9 feet which is 21 feet within the required side yard. The
footprint of the house is 1,064 square feet. A standard two stall garage is 24 feet x 24
feet or 576 square feet, and a three stall garage is 24 feet x 36 feet or 864 square feet.
The Planning Commission should discuss whether a structure of this size is warranted.
Is it reasonable to allow a garage of this size and is it an issue for mass and scale in the
neighborhood? The length of the garage could be reduced from the 40 feet as
proposed to increase the setback to 651' Street North.
Page 60 of 108
Drainage/Utilities
The City Engineer will review the drainage for the site. The final grading for the
proposed structure shall be subject to approval of the City Engineer.
Criteria for Reduced Setback
Section 401.15.C.1.e.5) of the Zoning Ordinance specifies criteria for the reduction of a
setback by Conditional Use Permit:
5) A required yard on a lot may be reduced by a conditional use permit if the
following conditions are met:
a) The reduction of setback requirements is based upon a 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.
Comment: The lot is unique in that there is no rear yard. The garage
size could be reduced so that the setback from 65th Avenue could
be increased.
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.
Comment: The City Engineer will review the drainage. No easements
are impacted.
c) The reduction will work toward the preservation of trees or unique
physical features of the lot or area.
Comment: The setback of the proposed structure would be consistent
with the existing setback of the house.
d) If affecting a north lot line, the reduction will not restrict sun access
from the abutting lots.
Comment: The proposed structure should not create any sun access
issues.
e) The reduction will not obstruct traffic visibility, cause a public safety
problem and complies with Section 401.15.B.6 of this Ordinance.
Comment: The proposed structure should not create any visibility or
safety issues.
3
Page 61 of 108
f) The conditions of Section 401.03.A.8 of this Ordinance are
considered and satisfactorily met.
Comment: The conditions are reviewed in this report.
Garage Standards
Section 401.15.C.1.8.e of the Zoning Ordinance establishes standards for residential
dwellings and accessory structures. The standard that applies to this proposed
accessory structure is as follows:
e. Single Family and Multiple Family Containing Up to Five (5) Units to Include Only
New Construction.
3) Garage Doors/Building Design for Attached or Detached Garages.
Garage doors may be located on another side of the dwelling ("side or
rear loaded") provided that the side of the garage facing the front public or
private street has windows and other architectural details that mimic the
features of the living portion of the dwelling.
The proposed garage doors will face to the west and not front either Paris Avenue or
65'h Street North. The building indicates windows on both sides of the garage facing the
right of way.
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:
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 will not be 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 has been requested to allow the garage
structure in the front yard setback area.
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
4
Page 62 or 108
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 has been requested for the 9 foot setback
from 65t' Street North. All other setback and height requirements will be met.
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.D.13 of
this Ordinance.
Comment: The garage will occupy 19 percent of the front yard area.
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 garage, either attached or detached, can
be located on said lot.
Comment: There is an existing storage shed. In that it is less than 120 square
feet it is exempt from the allowed number of structures. (See # 7 below)
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 total area of the two detached structures will be 1,200 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.S. above.
Comment: Not applicable.
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
Page 63 of 108
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 proposed and the existing structure is
less than 120 square feet.
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 has been designed to complement the
current principal building exterior.
Conditional Use Pemnits
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 (i.e.,
parking, loading, noise, etc.).
Comment: The Planning Commission should comment if any of these criteria
will be at odds with the Conditional Use Permits proposed for the site. The lot is
unique in that the house placement does not provide a back yard for the property
and as a corner lot with double street frontages there is a practical difficulty for
placing an accessory building on the property. The garage size could be
reduced to allow for additional setback to 65th Street North.
6
Page 64 of 108
CONCLUSION/RECOMMENDATION
Upon review of the request for the Conditional Use Permits, the Planning Commission
should consider the application to allow for construction of a garage at 15117 65t' Street
North. The request for construction in the front yard is reasonable but the garage size
and setbacks should be considered by the Planning Commission. If the Planning
Commission is favorable to the request it should consider the following conditions:
1. The City Engineer will review the drainage for the site. The final grading
for the proposed structure shall be subject to approval of the City
Engineer.
2. Any exterior mechanical equipment associated with the garage shall be
screened.
3. The exterior of the proposed garage shall be finished with siding and in a
color to match the current principal building exterior.
4. No kitchens or bathrooms shall be allowed in the proposed garage.
5 The applicant shall apply for and receive a building permit for the
structure. All applicable Building Code requirements shall be met.

Planning & Code Enforcement
Narrative for conditional use penult on the property at 15117 65 Street N
To Whom It May Concern:
The owners of the property at 15117 651h Street N in Oak Park Heights, Minnesota
(Douglas and Meghan Hatalla) have applied for a special use permit to build a garage
on their property. Due to the nature of the property — situated on a comer, with the
house at the far west side of the lot and the driveway running the entire southern side of
the property— the only viable space for this project is the side yard on the east.
However, Oak Park Heights interprets this side yard as a front yard (and, indeed, by that
logic, it's also our side yard and back yard!), necessitating the need for a conditional use
permit.
As fellow residents of Minnesota, we know those reading this narrative can understand
the hardship posed by not having a garage. Our desire for this structure is predicated on
several factors: the need for storage, protecting our property and vehicles, enhancing
the neighborhood aesthetic, and safety. We understand that we are asking for certain
variance from the 30-foot setback as well.
Storage: when we moved to Oak Park Heights, the property had an 8x10 shed in the
corner of the lot. As a family of three (7, if we include our dogs and cats!) we quickly
filled this space, and, predictively, are spilling out of it. Our bikes are tied along the roof;
we swap out the lawnmower and snowblower with the season. Douglas, a millwright by
trade, has a large collection of tools that save us from hiring out for certain projects, but
multiple heavy chests take up floor space. And, as five -year -olds do, our daughter has
accumulated her share of summer toys from a picnic table, fairy garden sets, and more.
If you walk into the shed, there is just enough room for someone to take a step in and
turn around (watching their head).
A garage would give us some very literal breathing room. We would be able to access
our bikes more easily and give our daughter easier access to her outdoor toys. We
Page 66 of 108
would be able to store our recycling, garbage and compost bins inside as well, removing
the eyesore of having them visible to the neighborhood. Page 6 shows how we intend
to use the space.
RGIN dlon of properb: A garage will allow us to park our vehicles inside a structure.
This keeps them safer (or at least presents a deterrent) to would-be criminals looking for
an unlocked door, catalytic converter theft, or some other activity. It also protects our
vehicles and batteries from the wear of winter weather, and the potential for damage
during hailstorms or other extreme weather events. The garage also offers a safe space
for toys and bikes that are often left outside in the summer months due to lack of access
to the shed.
Enhancing nelghbortrood aesf mbc: In our four years in Oak Park Heights, we've
demonstrated our dedication to creating a beautiful space on our little corner. We take
great pride in landscaping and gardening. We love creating eclectic outdoor spaces
giving preference to local pollinator plants as well as balancing scents, colors and other
considerations. On the final page of this narrative, we've included screenshots of the lot
as it looked when we moved in (images are taken from Google Streetview, please
excuse the quality!). We've spent time every season since moving in battling the
invasive buckthorn and honeysuckle that ringed the property previously. We also
removed the dying black walnut tree out of our own pocket.
We can guarantee that our garage will not be eyesore. As noted above, we'll be able to
store our waste containers inside. We also plan to add trellises to the sides to grow
morning glories (which will thrive with that eastern morning light!) and other plants.
Safety Our garage will not hamper visibility for vehicles arriving at the comer of
Paris/65'h Street. We think it will make the corner safer, actually!
This comer has long been a source of consternation for us, as well as our neighbors
with growing families. Between just four families on the corner (not to mention the
friends and family who come to play between the yards as well), there are over 10 kids
under the age of 8. These kids are learning to ride bikes, running between homes,
2
Page 67 of 108
accidentally throwing/kicking balls into the street, and more. It's also a popular walking
route for people and dogs. The high level of pedestrians necessitates some review of
the traffic patterns in the area... But that is not the point of this narrative =]
One of our hopes is that our garage will force people to actually stop at the stop sign at
Paris/65' street. One could sit for a week and count the number of cars that stop
without rolling through the intersection on one hand. With our garage, they will need to
pause at the comer, actually look to their right (and not just to the left to see if cars are
coming), and make an informed decision to turn right.
Another factor for safety is creating a confined space for our daughter and neighbors to
play. The garage on the eastern side of the property, bounded by the house on the
western side, creates a natural space that is away from the roads and keeps them in
sight from just about anywhere in the house.
Request for Variance: As noted and demonstrated in the opening paragraph, we truly
only have one space on our lot where a garage could feasibly be built. As I researched
the primary causation for 30 foot setbacks —the "why," if you will —it seems to come
down to a few factors and our garage will not interfere with any of them. The first is for
safety, and to ensure that emergency vehicles have access and structures aren't too
close to roads or utilities. Our garage won't interfere with that. The second is for privacy,
to create space between buildings and avoid overcrowding. By placing our garage
closer to the corner, and further from the house, we are avoiding overcrowding.
Aesthetics are another reason. We've included an Al rendering (pg 5) of how we
imagine our garage to look, and are certain it will be an aesthically-pleasing addition to
the corner (especially compared to what was there previously (pg 4). The final reason is
zoning compliance — to ensure that residential, commercial, and industrial areas are
separated appropriately. We aren't building any kind of commercial or industrial
structure.
Thank you for your time and consideration. We can be reached by phone or email to
address any further questions, considerations or concerns.

Good morning, Julie!
own a home across the street from Meghan and Doug Hatalla, and they told me of their plans to build a
garage on their property at 15117 65th St.N. I wholeheartedly approve. I think it will increase the curb

Subject: Hatalla Garage project
Dear Ms. Hultman,
My name is Michael Rota — my wife and I and our children live at 1509165th St N, Oak Park Heights. Meghan and Doug
Hatalla (at 15117 65th St N) are our next door neighbors to the East. Meghan has shared with me the plan for their
proposed garage and we Rotas do not have an objection.
The presence of the garage will reduce the visibility (when my kids cross 65th street) of cars traveling North on Paris and
turning left onto 65th (there is no stop sign coming from Paris, so they move along at a fair clip). However the visibility
will be no worse than it was when there was a large hedge (on the Hatalla's property), a hedge that the Hatallas cut
down when they moved in. So if we were okay with the hedge when the previous owners lived at 15117, 1 think we
should be fine with the garage.
Has the city ever considered making the Paris/65th St N intersection a 4 way stop? That would be a safety improvement.
Regardless, we do not object to the Hatalla's garage plan.
Sincerely,
Michael Rota

ATTN: Julie Hultman, Building Official
Planning & Code Enforcement
To Whom It May Concern,
We, Douglas and Meghan Hatalla, are requesting a Conditional Use Permit to construct
a garage on our property at 15117 65th Street N. Due to the unique layout of our corner
lot, where the house is situated on the far west and the driveway runs along the
southern edge, the only feasible space for a garage is on the east side of our property.
Though this is our side yard, Oak Park Heights interprets this area as a front yard,
triggering the need for a conditional use permit and setback variance.
This request is based on four factors:
1. Storage Needs: Our existing 8x10 shed cannot accommodate a growing family of
three (plus pets), outdoor gear, seasonal tools, and bikes. A garage would relieve daily
storage constraints and improve access.
2. Protection of Property: A garage would safeguard vehicles from theft and severe
weather, while offering secure storage for tools and toys.
3. Neighborhood Aesthetics: Since moving in, we've invested significant effort in
landscaping and beautification. The garage design will complement our lot. For
example, we can have trellises for climbing plants, move waste bins out of sight, etc.
We have also gathered support from many neighbors for this project, who have emailed
their thoughts to Julie Hultman.
4. Safety: The structure will not obstruct traffic visibility and may improve compliance at
the stop sign at 65th/Paris. It also creates a safe, enclosed space for neighborhood
children to play.
We understand that our plan includes a request for relief from the 30-foot setback rule
on the north side, along 65th/Orleans, where we will have it run along the same line as
our home. However, our proposal still aligns with the intent of such zoning regulations:
ensuring safety, spacing, and visual harmony. The proposed garage poses no risk to
1
Page 83 of 108
utility access or emergency vehicles and will enhance, not detract from, the corner's
character.
It's worth noting that our home was built in 1910, long before current zoning ordinances
were established. As such, the structure and lot layout may qualify as a legal
nonconforming use under current definitions. We are committed to working with the city
to ensure that this project respects local ordinances while serving our family's needs
and contributing positively to the neighborhood.
We also want to acknowledge the recommendation from the Planning Commission to
consider alternative placement. Unfortunately, we cannot comply with this
recommendation due to an agreement with our neighbor, with whom we share the
driveway. The draft of the agreement is attached, along with a visual of the garage.
Thank you for your time and consideration.
Sincerely,
Douglas & Meghan Hatalla
