1991, April 1 and 3rd, 1991 meetings. Ayes (7), Nays (0).Motion carri
A Hearing on the Appeal No. 91-1 by Rolland an& Lenora Anderson
appealing the decision of the Rochester Zoning Board of Appeals.
Wishing to be,heard was Rolland Anderson of 401 18 112 Ave. S. W.
Mr —Anderson stated that he has a building.in the rear yard of rental
property located at 2211 lst Avenue S. W. This is an -accessory
building and he went to all the appropriate governmental agencies
that would approve or be affected by.this additional structure and
they approved all the requests. The structure was built and then
it was discovered that the applicant could not use this building
for storage because he did not live on the premises that it was
built. He appealed this request to allow him to keep this structure
on this property and use it to the Zoning Board of Appeals and they
denied his request. He is appealing to the Council to reverse the
decision of the Board of Appeals and allow him this use.
Wishing to be heard was James Regan of 119 23rd St. S. W. and stated
this building is not a garage, but rather a pole barn type structure.
He is not in favor of this and would urge the Council not to reverse
they Zoning Board's decision.
Having no one else present that wished to be heard, President Selby
closed the hearing.
Alderman Canfield stated that Mr. Anderson did his homework well,
he had'the concrete poured and then found out that this building did
not conform. He was notified at this time to stop, but he decided to
go ahead and build the structure anyway. The neighbors are upset
and Alderman Canfield feels that this could be setting a precedent
if this structure was allowed to remain non -conforming.
Alderman Solinger stated that this case has brought to light a
discrepancy in our Zoning Ordinance. If a home address is given, and
another address is also allowed on the form, and they two are not
necessarily investigated, then he could see how a building could be
approved and not necessarily at the same address as the owner or
applicant lives at.' He would -like to see this corrected so that this
would not -happen again in the future.
Alderman Hunziker stated that the reasons allowing the Council to
permit this structure are such as Exceptional Circumstances, Natural
Causes, Preservation of Property Rights, Absence of Detriment, General
Nature. These reasons cannot be justified by the Council to allow
this structure to remain in the place that it was built.
Wishing to be heard again was Mr. Rolland Anderson. He stated that he
did not even have the house bought yet when he went in for the bldg.
permit.
Wishing to be heard was Einor Hanson of 124 23rd St. S. W.
He is opposed to this building remaining. and urged the Council not
to allow it. Canfield moved, McConnell second.to deny the request
to appeal the Zoning Board of Appeals decision. After Council dis-
cussion, Roll Call was heard - Aldermen Bluhm , Canfield, Hunziker,
McConnell, and President Selby voted aye. Ayes (5),.Aldermen Solinger

H-1 Wishing to be heard was Robert DeWitz of 602 llth Avenue N. W.
and he has two owner..•contracts - one for Diamond Ridge 3rd and
the other for Cimarron 14. He would like the Council to approve
these at this meeting. His reason was that he could get his bonds
by the time that the Public Services received pertinent information
that they would need in order to approve these contracts. Since
Roger Plumb, Public Services Director only received the grading
plans, erosion plans, etc. for these projects this day,he did not
have sufficient time to check the contracts and the projects.
He urged the Council not to approve these until he had time to check
the contracts. Mr. DeWitz said it didn't make any difference if
they were checked or not at this point, because he only wanted to
get his bonds in order. Alderman Bluhm agred with Mr. DeWitz that
it should not make any difference. Mr. Plumb showed slides on the
tremendous erosion problems that his office is having and said it
did make a difference on types of plans that are being considered
in grading, etc. in a subdivision when developed. Council generally
agreed with Mr. Plumb and Stevan Kvenvold, City Adm. stated that a
good routine should be worked out - a plan submitted in time and then
the contract drawn up for Council approval - then presented for
execution by-the',Mayor and City Clerk.
Council asked Mr. Plumb if he could get these two contracts checked
by Monday, April 22, 1991 and Council could consider them at that
time. Mr. Plumb stated that he could so that is when this will be
brought back to the Council.
Having no further business, Strain moved, Canfield second to adjourn
the meeting until 4:30 P.M. on April 22, 1991. Ayes (7'), Nays (0).
Motion carried.
