Plan nine Division Review Applicant: Dakota Storage, LLC Martin Kiehm 8500 21 oth Street Lakeville, MN 55044 Attachments: 1. Application 2. Property Survey 3. Site Plan 4. Aerial Phots 5. Site Photos Property Location: 21130 Chippendale Ave Variance Request: 25 feet (50% of required setback) Required Sethack: 50 feet Proposed Building Area: 78,648 square feet Surrounding Land Uses: Medium Density Townhomes to the south, residential and commercial to the north Existing Zoning: I -I (Light Industrial) Comprehensive Plan: Industrial . DISCUSSION The applicant, Martin Kiehm, Dakota Storage, LLC, is seeking variance approval to encroach twenty-five (25) feet into the required fifty (50) foot setback for industrial buildings adjacent to residentially zoned property. Section 10-1-4 (D) specifies the following (D) Nonresidential structures or uses shall not be located or constructed closer to any property lines of any other lot not commonly owned in any R District than the distance specified in the following: Minimum Side or Rear Yard Abutting any Lot In Any R District Use 10 feet Off-street parking spaces and access drives for nonresidential uses 35 feet Churches, schools and public or semi- public structures 50 feet Recreationfacilities, entertainment facilities, all business uses and all industrial uses (Ord 088-200,5-16-88) The property consists of 13.6 acres and currently contains a 94,230 square foot dry/cold storage building located on the north central portion of the site. The proposed building is situated on the south central portion of the site adjacent to the Glenview and Bristol Square Townhome developments and will be used as a dry/cold storage and distribution site for Marigold Foods. . The building, proposed to be constructed parallel with the south property line, would encroach into the minimum setback area at the point the property "bends" and begins to narrow toward the west half of the lot. The applicant is claiming undue hardship due to the lot configuration effecting the desired building configuration, impacting the racking system on the interior; making the building less efficient if corners had to be angled, losing valuable storage space without the approval of a variance. The following requirements need to be justified to allow an encroachment of twenty-five feet into the required fifty foot setback. 1) Literal enforcement of this Title would result in undue hardship with respect to the property. The applicant is claiming that the required fifty foot setback would result in undesirable building configuration resulting in lost storage needed in the racking configuration. 2) Such unnecessary hardship results because of circumstances unique to the property. The property has an irregular shape, bending at about the mid-point of the lot, requiring a "bend" in the setback and building (the rear yard is measured to be 466-feet wide and the front lot narrows down to 220. 88-feet wide). 3) The hardship is caused by provisions of this Title and is not the result of actions of persons presently having an interest in the property. . . . . Section 10-1-4 (D) of the City Code requires a fifty foot setback of industrial and commercial buildings from residentially zoned property. 4) The variance observes the spirit and intent of this Title, produces substantial justice and is not contrary to the public interest. The variance request observes the spirit and intent of the City Code in that the property owner would be permitted to configure the building as efficiently as possible on the lot. 5) The variance does not penn it a lower degree of flood protection than the flood protection elevation for the particular area or pennit standards lower than required by State law. The site does not contain any flood plain. ACTION REOUESTED Consider the variance application to encroach twenty-five (25) feet into the required fifty (50) foot setback with an industrial building constructed next to residentially zoned property. If the Commission considers approval of the variance, staff recommends the following contingencies: 1. The applicant attempt to maintain as many existing mature trees along the southern property line for screening of the future residents within the Glenview Townhome development; mainly to consider relocating the 8-inch water line to the north side of the proposed building; 2. Submit a landscape plan acceptable to Planning Staff that meets the requirements outlined in Section 10-6-13: Screening and 10-6-14: Landscaping, the plan should include landscaping along the entire southern property line. cc: Martin Kiehm, Dakota Storage, LLC .

Lee Smick, AICP Planning Coordinator Meadow Creek 1 st Addition Final Plat FROM: SUBJECT: DATE: October 23,2001 INTRODUCTION PTOgress Land Company has submitted the Pinal Plat for Meadow Creek 1 st Addition. The plat contains 35 single-family lots and 2 outlots bordering the northern property line of the Autumn Glen subdivision and the eastern border of Prairie Creek 4th Addition. DISCUSSION The Developer is seeking Final Plat approval of the Meadow Creek 1 st Addition which consists of 35 single- family lots on approximately 159.35 acres of land. The Meadow Creek Preliminary Plat containing 178 single-family lots was approved by the Planning Commission on July 10, 2001 and by the City Council on August 20, 2001. State statute allows the Developer to reduce the final plat lot count provided that the final plat is a part of the approved preliminary plat lots. The Meadow Creek 1 st Addition Final Plat meets those requirements. Drainage Improvements for lots in the Prairie Creek 4th Addition A condition of the preliminary plat approval required that corrections and improvements to the grading and drainage problems in Prairie Creek 4th Addition be addressed and restoration of the affected properties be perfonned during the grading of the Meadow Creek project. A considerable amount of review pertaining to the improvements of the drainage problems for the lots in the Prairie Creek 4th Addition has been perfonned and approved by the Engineering Division. The improvement plan proposes that all of the grading work be contained within the platted 10-foot easement along the rear property lines in the Prairie Creek 4th Addition. The Developer will be required to notify property owners if the grading needs to be perfonned outside of the 10-foot easement. Outlots and Easements The plat shows 2 outlots, including the pond at the southwest corner and the remainder of the plat. The pond needs to be identified with "Outlot A" on the plat. Easements are shown on the plat along rear lot lines in the southwest corner of the 1 st Addition and along the southern boundary with Autunm Glen. A 20-foot easement is shown on Lots 3 and 4 in Block 2. Existing sheds that belong to properties in the Prairie Creek 3rd Addition are located within these easements and need to be removed from the easements by the property owners. The property owners will be notified of this . . . requirement. A 40-foot easement is proposed along the rear lots lines adjacent to the Autumn Glen subdivision to allow for the existing berm and trees that run between Lots 6 to 19 in Block 2 of the Meadow Creek 1 st Addition. Transportation The 1 st Addition will be accessed from the west by Eaglewood Trail. The second access is Dunbury Avenue that is proposed to connect from the south through the Autumn Glen subdivision. Both roadways are proposed with a 70-foot right-of-way width and a 38-foot roadway measured from the face of curb to the face of curb and are proposed as minor collectors on the 2020 Thoroughfare Plan. The roadway connecting the two minor collectors is 190th Street and is proposed with a 60-foot right-of-way width and a 32-foot roadway measured from face of curb to face of curb. Engineering The Engineering Division has reviewed the Meadow Creek 1 st Addition Final Plat and recommends approval contingent on minor revisions to the plat. ACTION REOUESTED Approve the Meadow Creek 1 st Addition Final Plat contingent upon the following requirements and forward the recommendation to the City Council on November 5, 2001. 1. 2. Show the pond as Outlot A. Address any engineering comments that are required for the final plat. Respectfully submitted, / S;:<<L (?
