FRANCIS BOULEVARD NW <br /> RECITALS <br /> 1. The City of Ramsey received a Land Use Application from Charles and Angela Lattery <br /> (the "Applicant") for a Variance to the height restrictions of a detached accessory building <br /> located in the side yard of property generally known as 17646 St. Francis Boulevard NW <br /> and legally described as follows: <br /> Lot 2, Block 1 Green Valley Estates, Anoka County, Minnesota <br /> (the "Subject Property") <br /> 2. That the Subject Property is zoned Rural Residential and is guided as Rural Developing in <br /> the 2040 Comprehensive Plan. <br /> 3. That the surrounding properties are also zoned Rural Residential and guided as Rural <br /> Developing as well. <br /> 4. That the Subject Property is approximately 2.51 acres in size. <br /> 5. That the Applicant previously had a detached accessory building, which served as the <br /> primary garage,just to the north of the home. <br /> 6. That the Applicant removed the former detached accessory building in 2022 because it was <br /> dilapidated and the roof was collapsing in on itself. <br /> 7. That parcels between 2.50 acres and 3.49 acres are eligible for up to 2,700 square feet of <br /> detached accessory building space. <br /> 8. That, after the rewrite of the Zoning Code, the height of a detached accessory building <br /> located in the front or side yard is limited to twenty-four (24) feet or the height of the <br /> principal building, whichever is less (prior to the rewrite of Zoning Code, as long as a <br /> detached accessory building was in the side or rear yard,the height of the principal structure <br /> had no bearing on the height of a detached accessory building). <br /> 9. That the Applicant is proposing to construct a 2,688 square foot (42' x 64'), detached <br /> accessory building,which will measure twenty-four(24)feet in height from grade to peak, <br /> in the side yard of the Subject Property. <br />
