Travis Brothers has applied for an Urban Chicken Permit. The permit is requesting the keeping of three (3) hen chickens
on the property located at 5995 Lower 182 "d Street West. The proposed coop, as shown in Exhibit C, is approximately 24
square feet in size and 6 feet tall. A run will be attached to the coop and is proposed to be 6 feet in depth and 10 feet in
length (60 square feet total) with a height of 6 feet. The coop and run as proposed meet the requirements identified in
Section 10 -6 -29 of the City Code.
As shown in Exhibit B, the coop and run are proposed to be located in the rear of the property near the northwest corner
of the yard. The proposed location meets all setback requirements listed in Section 10 -6 -29 of the City Code and will be
located further than the required twenty -five (25') feet from any adjacent home. In addition, the coop and run must be
setback at least 10 feet from all property lines. The proposed location meets this requirement. It is proposed to be setback
just over ten (10') feet from the northern property line. Lot coverage is not an issue with this application. The lot
coverage with the proposed coop will be approximately 9.29 %. The maximum lot coverage allowed in the R -1 Zoning
District is 30 %.
Section 10- 6- 29(K)6 states that any chicken coop or run shall be screened from view with a solid fence or landscaped
buffer with a minimum height of four (4') feet. Currently, the rear of the property is not fenced and the applicant has
indicated that no additional perimeter fencing will be added with the coop and run. The rear of the property has a
considerable amount of vegetation already. Due to the existing vegetation and proposed location of the coop and run staff
is comfortable with the current landscaping around the yard as a buffer /screen for the coop and run. However, staff does
reserve the right to require additional screening if determined necessary upon inspection.
ACTION REQUESTED
Approve the Urban Chicken Permit subject to the following conditions:
1. A renewal permit shall be applied for and administratively approved every year after the Urban Chicken Permit
has been approved that chickens are kept on the property.
2. All other requirements specified in Section 10 -6 -29 of the City Code shall be abided by.

R -1 (Low Density Residential)
Jason Jerabek has applied for an Urban Chicken Permit. The permit is requesting the keeping of three (3) hen chickens on
the property located at 19317 Ellington Trail. The proposed coop, as shown in Exhibit C, is approximately 23 square feet
in size. The coop itself is just over 4 feet in height, but it will be elevated off the ground with timbers an additional 18
inches bringing the overall height of the structure to approximately 5.6 feet. The applicant does plan to construct a
chicken run adjacent to the coop. The run is proposed to be 4 feet in depth and 4 feet in length (16 square feet total) with
a fence height of 4 feet. The coop and run as proposed meet the requirements identified in Section 10 -6 -29 of the City
Code.
As shown in Exhibit B, the coop and run are proposed to be located in the rear of the property behind the southwest corner
of the home. The proposed location meets all setback requirements listed in Section 10 -6 -29 of the City Code and will be
approximately thirty five (35') feet from the nearest home adjacent to the South (the minimum distance from coop and run
to adjacent homes is twenty -five (25') feet). In addition, the coop and run are proposed to be setback further than the
required 10 feet from all property lines. Lot coverage is not an issue with this application. The lot coverage with the
proposed coop will be approximately 20.05 %. The maximum lot coverage allowed in the R -1 Zoning District is 30 %.
Section 10- 6- 29(K)6 states that any chicken coop or run shall be screened from view with a solid fence or landscaped
buffer with a minimum height of four (4') feet. Currently, the only portion of the rear of the property that is fenced is
along the northern property line. This property line is fenced with a 4 foot high chain link fence. The applicant has
indicated that no additional perimeter fencing will be added with the coop and run. Due to the topography of the property
and proposed placement, the coop will be fairly visible from the adjacent properties to the north and south. If the permit
is approved, a condition of approval should be that the applicant work with staff on screening the coop and run in an
appropriate manner.
ACTION REQUESTED
Approve the Urban Chicken Permit subject to the following conditions:
1. A renewal permit shall be applied for and administratively approved every year after the Urban Chicken Permit
has been approved that chickens are kept on the property.
2. The applicant shall work with staff to provide additional screening of the coop and run from the properties
adjacent to the north and south.
3. All other requirements specified in Section 10 -6 -29 of the City Code shall be abided by.

SUBJECT: Variance request for:
a) Waiver of plat requirements to allow a reduced side yard setback for an existing
home; and
b) Reducing the rear yard setback adjacent to an alley for the construction of a detached
garage
DATE: May 13, 2014
INTRODUCTION
Michel Pleau is requesting approval of two variances. The variances that are being sought are:
• A variance from the waiver of plat requirements to allow a reduced side yard setback for an existing
home; and
• A variance reducing the rear yard setback adjacent to an alley for the construction of a detached garage.
The subject property is located at 39 Oak Street.
Planning Division Review
Applicant: Michel Pleau
5332 Upper 147th Street W.
Apple Valley, MN 55124
Property Address: 39 Oak Street
Legal Description: Lots 5 and 6, Block 14 Town of Farmington
Attachments: 1. Variance Application — Exhibit A
2. Waiver of Plat Application — Exhibit B
3. Certificate of Survey — Exhibit C
4. Photographs of property — Exhibit D
5. Aerial of property and surrounding area — Exhibit E
Existing Zoning: R -T (Downtown Transitional Mixed Use)
2030 Comprehensive Plan: Low Medium Density Residential
DISCUSSION
Two variances are being requested for the property located at 39 Oak Street. The property consists of two lots
that had been previously combined into one large residential lot. The applicant recently purchased the property
with the intent to split the lot back to its original configuration (2 — 60' x 170' lots) in order to build a new home
on the proposed vacant parcel (shown as Lot 5 on the attached survey).
The first variance is to allow a reduced side yard setback for the existing home upon the granting of a waiver of
plat from the newly created lot line. Section 11 -1 -5 of the City Code requires that a lot(s) meets all the
requirements of the underlying zoning ordinance, including setbacks, for a waiver of plat to be granted. If the
lots are split back to their original configuration (60' wide lots) the existing home addressed as 39 Oak Street
would be setback 5.4 feet from the new lot line. Additionally, there is an existing stairwell that leads from an
elevated entry door on the west side of the home that would extend over the newly created lot line. The
applicant is proposing to have a three (3') foot wide landing from the door and extend a sidewalk adjacent to the
home north to connect with the existing sidewalk located on the north side of the home. The portion of
stairwell and sidewalk that extends over the proposed lot line would be removed. With the proposed stairwell
and sidewalk, the side yard setback would be reduced to 2.4 feet. The property is zoned R -T (Downtown
Transitional Mixed Use) and requires a six (6') foot side yard setback. The first variance request is to reduce
the side yard setback to 2.4 feet to allow for the three (3') foot landing and stairs.
The second variance that is being sought is to allow for a reduced rear yard setback for a detached garage to be
built on the lot shown as Lot 6 on the attached survey. The property currently has an existing detached garage
that would be bisected by the newly created lot line. This existing garage is not in a structural condition that
would allow for it to be relocated, so the applicant is proposing to demolish the existing garage and build a new
24' x 24' detached garage on the lot for the existing home at 39 Oak Street. As previously mentioned the
property is zoned R -T and the rear yard setback for detached garages adjacent to an alley is ten (10') feet. The
proposed garage would be setback four (4') feet from the rear property line. It should be noted that the access
to the current detached garage comes from First Street not the alley. The proposed garage would access off of
First Street as well. To require the garage to be setback at the ten (10') foot requirement would mean the
removal of mature landscaping along the south side of the garage. It should also be noted that the proposed
garage would be setback an additional 1.5 feet further than the existing garage from the rear property line. The
second variance that is being requested is a variance of six (6') feet to allow the construction of a detached
garage four (4') feet from the rear property line (alleyway).
The Planning Commission shall not approve any variance unless they find that "practical difficulties" as defined
in City Code exist using the following criteria:
1. Because the particular physical surroundings, or shape, configuration, topography, or other conditions of the
specific parcel of land involved, strict adherence to the regulations of this title would cause practical difficulties.
2. That the variance would be consistent with the comprehensive plan.
3. That the variance would be in harmony with the general purpose and intent of this title.
4. The conditions upon which the variance is based are unique to the parcel of land for which the variance is sought
and are not applicable, generally, to other properties within the same zoning classification.
5. The alleged difficulty or hardship is caused by this title and has not been created by any persons presently having
any interest in the parcel of land.
6. The granting of the variance will not alter the essential character of the locality or be injurious to other property
within the vicinity in which the parcel of land is located or substantially diminish property values.
7. The proposed variance will not substantially increase congestion of the public streets, or increase the danger of
fire, or be detrimental to the public welfare or public safety.
8. The requested variance is the minimum action required to eliminate the practical difficulties.
9. Variances may not be approved for any use that is not allowed under this title for property in the zone where the
affected person's land is located except that the temporary use of a one - family dwelling as a two- family dwelling
may be authorized by variance.
It is staffs belief that practical difficulties do exist and that the criteria for granting the variances as requested
have been met.
ACTION REQUESTED
Staff recommends approval of the variances as requested subject to the following conditions:
1. Execution and recording of a waiver of plat application.
2. Submission and approval of a building permit for the proposed improvements.

SUBJECT: Discussion of Limited Commercial Ventures Ordinances
DATE: May 13, 2014
INTRODUCTION
Attached, for discussion purposes only, are three ordinances all related to Limited Commercial Ventures.
DISCUSSION
Over the last several months the City's Heritage Preservation Commission [HPC] has been working on developing an
ordinance that would allow certain commercial establishments to be located within properties/buildings that have been
designated or are eligible for designation as Farmington Heritage Landmarks.
The draft ordinance that is attached was developed in response to a request that staff had received regarding the Akin
House (19185 Akin Road) from a potential buyer of the property. The individual wanted to know if the property could be
utilized for commercial purposes. The property is zoned residential and would come with some challenges with utilizing
it for commercial purposes. The HPC requested that staff look into an ordinance that could address the potential use of
the City's landmark homes (which are all zoned residential) for limited commercial establishments provided certain
criteria are met and a CUP is reviewed and approved by the HPC and Planning Commission. The attached ordinance was
based on an existing ordinance that the City of Cottage Grove has implemented.
As previously mentioned, the City's Heritage Preservation Commission has reviewed the draft ordinances in their current
form. The HPC reviewed the ordinances at a special meeting on April 29, 2014 and at that meeting with a vote of 5 -0
recommended that the ordinances be forwarded on to the Planning Commission for consideration and a public hearing.
ACTION REQUESTED
Discuss the attached ordinances and provide feedback to staff. If the ordinances are acceptable to the Planning
Commission a motion to direct staff to set a public hearing would be appropriate.
Respectfully submitted,
Tony Wippler, Planning Manager
