The structure would <br />be an addition to an existing structure. <br /> <br />e <br /> <br />Steve Rohlf further indicated that the proposed storage garage would be <br />15 feet from Quinn Avenue and approximately 15 feet from the Burlington <br />Northern right-of-way to the south. which would require a 10 foot <br />variance to the 25 foot side yard setback and a 35 foot variance to the <br />50 foot front yard setback. Mr. Rohlf indicated that the Planning <br />Commission recommended approval of the variance due to the irregular <br />shape of the lot and because Quinn Avenue is a dead end road and used in <br />an industrial capacity. <br /> <br />The City Council discussed the power line running across the property <br />and the fact that the power line is a hazard to the community.
