Cb~ <br /> <br />FEBRUARY 22, 1994 <br /> <br />SUBJECT: VARIANCE REQUEST BY THE CITY <br />OF ELK RIVER, PUBLIC HEARING, <br />CASE NO. V 94-01 <br /> <br />FROM: <br /> <br />DATE: <br /> <br />ISSUE <br /> <br />Consider a five (5) foot front yard building setback variance and five (5) foot <br />parking lot setback variance to the existing library. <br /> <br />ATTACHMENTS <br /> <br />Location Map, Zoning Map, Site Plan <br /> <br />e <br /> <br />ANALYSIS <br /> <br />The City of Elk River is requesting a five foot front yard setback variance and <br />a five foot parking lot setback variance for the existing library and associated <br />parking lot. The purpose of the variance is to recognize the existing <br />conditions, which do not comply with current code. The variance is being <br />triggered by the conditional use permit application for the expansion of the <br />existing library building. <br /> <br />SETBACKS <br /> <br />The existing library is currently situated twenty-five (25) feet from the front <br />property line located along Proctor Avenue. Today's front yard setback <br />requirement is 30 feet. The existing parking lot setback from the <br />surrounding property lines is 5 feet. Today's parking lot setback <br />requirement is 10 feet. At the time the library and parking surface was <br />constructed, it did meet all City codes, therefore, a variance is required <br />because of the change to City ordinance. <br /> <br />e <br /> <br />P.o.
