Members Present: Chairperson Benjamin Deemer Board Member David Bawden Board Member Board Member Board Member Board Member Sharon Jensen Charles LaDue Michael Terry Bradley Thorud Members Absent: Board Member Paul Holland Also Present: Zoning Administrator Sylvia Frolik CALL TO ORDER Chairperson Deemer called the public hearing to order at 7:05 p.m. PRESENTATION Zoning Administrator Frolik stated that John and Yvonne Lyrenmarm are requesting a variance to construct an accessory garage nearer the front property line than the principal structure at 9360 181st Avenue NW. The house is situated approximately 280 feet from the front property line of the 8-acre parcel. (The original homeowner, not the applicants, essentially created a 280~foot front yard setback when they sited the house on the lot.) The Lyrenmanns propose to construct the garage approximately 180 feet from the front property line. The site plan submitted reveals that declines in topography, mature tree growth, septic system location, and tillable land prevent locating an accessory structure in the side or rear yard. CITIZEN INPUT Matthew Habben, 9390 181st Avenue NW - stated he owns the parcel adjacent to the applicants and he wholeheartedly supports the variance request and urges approval. Motion by Board Member Bawden and seconded by Board Member Jensen to enter the letter from Karen and Donald Olson, 17940 Baugh Street NW, into tho record of this public hearing.
