HomeMy WebLinkAbout0039782-Building (detached garage) � MINLTTES PAGE -4 MAY 4, 1994 ' BOARD OF ZONING APPEALS s � Mr. Roehlig suggested that a stipulation be put on the Certified Survey Map reflecting that the parking lot be removed prior to construction. Chauman pro tem Krueger inquired as to the hardship and Mr. Roehlig stated that the hardship is mainly to the neighborhood. Motion by Dahl for approval of a variance for a 1± ft. rear yard setback for an existing parking lot with the following conditions: 1) All required setback standards for buildings and parking, both existing and proposed, be met at the time of redevelopment. 2) That a notation be placed on the Certified Survey Map stating the above. Seconded by Husman. Motion carried 4-0 with 1 abstaining (Roehlig). As to the Findings of Fact, Chauman pro tem Krueger stated that aesthically by leaving it as such temporarily until development does take place, it would aestically be better for the neighborhood and at the time when development and construction does take place, then everything can be removed and the proper setbacks maintained. Mr. Husman stated it is more attractive to leave as is for a temporary period. Mr. Schorse added that the setback requested is the minimum needed to satisfy the required setbacks. III: 1029 WEST 6TH AVENUE - Herb & Nancy Mugerauer, owner/applicant The owners/applicants are requesting a variance to construct a detached garage with a 6"± side yard and rear yard setback; whereas Section 30-16(B)(2)(b) Accessory Structures/Uses of the City of Oshkosh Zoning Ordinance requires a 2'h ft. side and rear yard setback for detached garages. Mr. Herb Mugerauer gave a brief history of the property in question and reiterated the variance request. He stated they would like a garage to put the cars in along with winter and summer equipment (grill, lawn mower, sporting equipment, etc.). By moving it back farther, it gives us a little more distance away from the house to angle in and use as a safety margin. Mr. Roehlig inquired if the garage would be 5 ft. from back of the house. Mr. Mugerauer stated that without a variance, the garage would be 5 ft. from the house. With the variance requested, the garage could be moved back further - 6 inches from the back lot line, the garage would then be 7'h ft., from the house. Mr. Roskom stated that the applicant's proposal #3 allows for more vehicular maneuverability. This is a typical small lot that they don't have room to work with. It is short enough that the house takes up most of the lot - it is in line with the rest of the block. � MIlVLJTES PAGE -5- MAY 4, 1994 � BOARD OF ZONING APPEALS Chauman pro tem Krueger noted that the proposed garage is 4 ft. narrower than most garages. George Kuehn, 1025 W. 6th Avenue, stated he had no objections to the applicants' proposal. Mr. Roskom stated that another adjacent property owner, Terry Binder, 1023 W. 6th Avenue, had called and stated he had no objections to the applicants' proposal. � Motion by Husman for approval of a variance to construct a detached garage with a 6"± side yard and rear yard setback. Seconded by Roehlig. Motion carried 5-0. As to the Findings of Fact, Mr. Schorse stated the hardship is created by the lot size - there is no room to expand since all the other lots in the neighborhood are approximately the same size. The amount of the variance requested is the minimum he needs. This is an older neighborhood with virtually no opportunity to gain land to expand. Mr. Roehlig added that they are putting in a minunal size garage - nothing extravagant. IV. 944 WITZEL AVENUE - Gerry Mathusek, owner; Joseph LeRoy, applicant The applicant is requesting a variance to construct additional parking spaces to an existing parking lot with a 10 ft. front yard setback; whereas Section 30-29(B)(1)(d) requires where the frontage of a block is divided among districts with different front yard setback requirements, the deepest front yard requirement shall apply, resulting in a 25 ft. front yard setback from Dempsey Trail. THIS ITEM WAS WITHDRAWN. There being no further business, the meeting adjourned. Respectfully, -� : � � �"�� �r / BRUCE A. ROSKOM Principal Planner
