Variance Request by Mr. & Mrs. Ray Warren Mrs. Ray Warren was present for this item at the Planning Commission Meeting. Chairman Tracy indicated that Mrs. Warren who lives at 19540 Tyler Street was requesting a variance to the required 600' setback that must be maintained from any residential neighboring structure for a metal-skinned building, which they intend to build on their property. Mrs. Warren indicated that her request for variance was for approximately 174' from her monther-in-law who lives to the immediate north of their property, and also for approximately 270 feet from their son Richard Warren, who lives to the immediate south. Mrs. Warren indicated that the structure will be used for storage of agricultural equipment, and possible for the storage of some crops. Commissioner Trallequestioned whether there would be livestock stored in the building. Mrs. Warren indicated that they had no plans for that kind of use in their building. COMMISSIONER PEARCE MOVED TO RECOMMEND TO THE CITY COUNCIL THAT A VARIANCE BE GRANTED TO MR. & MRS. RAY WARREN OF 19540 TYLER STREET, ELK RIVER, TO CONSTRUCT AN AGRICULTURAL BUILDING ON THEIR PROPERTY. COMMISSIONER TEMPLE SECONDED THE MOTION. THE MOTION PASSED 6-0. 8. Variance Request by Mr. Theodore Nagorski Mr. Nagorski was present for this item at the Planning Commission Meeting. Rick Breezee indicated that Mr. Theodore Nagorski who lives at 12812 l89th Avenue NW, Elk River, was present to request a variance to the required front yard setback in order to keep the deck which he has constructed on his property. Mr. Breezee further indicated that the reason the deck had already been constructed was that Mr. Nagorski indicated to the City Staff that he did not know a permit was required to construct a deck. Rick Breezee indicated that he had visited Nagorski's property, and found that it would have been impossible for Mr. Nagor- ski to construct a deck in any portion of his yard that would not encroach upon any of the required setbacks as indicated in the Elk River Zoning Ordinance. Chairman Tracy indicated that he had reviewed the five standards that must be agreed upon before a variance could be granted, and felt that Mr. Nagorski complied with all five standards. COMMISSIONER TRALLE MOVED TO RECOMMEND TO THE CITY COUNCIL THAT A VARIANCE TO THE REQUIRED FRONT YARD SETBACK BE GRANTED TO MR. THEODORE NAGORSKI OF 12812 l89TH AVENUE NW, ELK RIVER, SO THAT HE CAN KEEP HIS DECK WHICH HE HAS CONSTRUCTED ON HIS PROPERTY. COMMISSIONER TEMPLE SECONDED THE MOTION. THE MOTION PASSED 6-0.
