a) The request for variance is based on the exceptional size
of the property and the location of the existing buildings.
The area on Chestnut is small and totally within the front
yard setback.
b) Without the variances the owner would, based on the physical
characteristics, incur exceptional practical difficulties
in constructing the detached garages to service� the 16
candominiums. Since this is an existing structure, no
garages or off-street parking is required' and it is an
amenity which the applicant proposes.
c) Granting of the variances will not impair the intent of the
ordinance and can be granted without substantial detriment
to the community.
d) The variances requested are not based primarily on a
desire for economic gain.
FURTHER RESOLVED, That the City Clerk shall mail a copy of this

RE: Zoning File #9002 - Panama Flats Corporation
City Council Hearing: December 10, 1981
Dear Sir:
This letter is written in response to the appeal of Panama Flats Corporation
to a decision of the Board of Zoning Appeals denying setback variances to
the applicant to construct a double garage with access directly onto
Chestnut Street.
On September 22, 1981 , the Board of Zoning Appeals conducted a public
hearing. The Panama Flats Corporation requested setback variances to
construct two garages : (1 ) a 14-stall garage to run parallel to the
existing old Panama Flats, and (2) a 2-stall garage to front on Chestnut
Street in an area in front of t�h:e new Panama Flats. The Board voted 5 to 0
to grant variances for the 14-stall garage and voted 4 to 2 to deny variances
for the 2-stall garage. The denial was based on findin�s that (1 ) the
variances would impair the intent of the Ordinance to provide open front
yard setbacks and (2) the variances would create a safety hazard b,y permitting
a garage with access directly on to Chestnut, a minor arterial and heavil,y
traveled truck route.
A letter from the Panama Flats Condominium Association was received in
opposition.
This appeal is scheduled to be heard by the City Council on December 10, 1981 .
Please notify me by December 9 if any member of the Council wishes to have
slides of the site presented at the public hearing.
Sincerely,

Attention: Mrs. Donna McNeally: �
A special meeting was held by the members of Panama Flats South Condominium
Association to review the variances requested by Panama Flats Corporation,
zoning file #9002. As a result of this meeting our association requests
that all variances requested per file #9002 be rejected by the Board of
Zoning Appeals. .
We would like to state that in no way are we attempting to impede the process
of restoration on the old brick Panama Flats building. We agree that Mr.
Lilyholm is a reputable, quality, builder and we are pleased_that his firm is
the contractor for Irvine Park's final stages of complete restoration.
Two explanations relative to our opposition follow:
I. We are opposed to the 2 foot setback on Chestnut and the 0 setback on
the West because these relate directly to the request for one double garage
fronting Chestnut Street. Our concern is over the potential traffic hazzards
. that would be created if variances are granted that would allow a double garage
fronting on Chestnut Street. The only access to the proposed double garage
would be via a curb cut directly off Chestnut. (Our Association is not willing
to grant an easement through our property to allow alternate access.)
The potential traffic hazzards that would be created by cars entering the garage
directly from Chestnut and exiting by backing directly into Chestnut traffic are
clearly obvious for all who travel this busy route.
II. The requested one foot six inch setback south would create a drainage
� problem on our property due to runoff that would be caused by the roofline of
planned garages which would parallel our property line. If their variance is
granted, our association requests assurance that the garage rooflines be prop-
erly pitched and guttered thereby directing drainage away from our property.
Thank you for your consideration.

Panama Flat South Condominium Association

' ' MINUTES OF THE MEETING OF THE BOARD OF ZONING APPEALS IN
CITY COUNCIL CHAMBERS, ST. PAUL, MINNESOTA, OCTOBER 13, 1981
PRESENT: N4nes. Morton and Summers; Messrs. Grais, Kirk, Osborn, and
Peterson of the Board of Zoning Appeals; Mr. Segal , Assistant
City Attorney; P1s. Lane of the Division of Housinq and Building
Code Enforcement; Ms. Beseman, Ms. McP�eally, and Ms. Von Mosch
' of the Planning Division Staff. '
ABSEP�T: Messr. Woods.
The meeting was chaired by Gladys Morton, Chairman. .
PANAMA FLATS CORPORATION (#9002): Variance request to construct 16 detached
aarages for renovate Panama �ts on the southwest corner of Exchanc;e and
Chestnut. .
The appellant was present. There was opposition present at the hearing.
Ms. McNeally showed slides of the site and reviewed the staff report with a
recomnendation for approval of !!ariance 1 for interior lot line setback
variance and denial of Variances 2 and 3 for the qaraqe frontina on
. Chestnut. A letter was received from the President of the Panama Flats South
Condominium Association requesting that the Board deny all variances because
of the traffic hazard created by the qarage off of Chestnut and drainaqe
problems which might be created by the side lot line setback variance.
- . Leonard Lilyholm, 496 Portland, developer and owner of the Panama Flats Corp. ,
stated that he requested that the matter be laid over at the last meeting
because at that time the Panama Flats South Condominium Association indicated
that they would be in support of the curb cut and entrance of a garage as
oppose to entering the double garage from their property. He explained that
there is no parking on Exchanqe, no parking on Chestnut in the morning or at
rush hour in the afternoon, and par.kinq is restricted around Irvine Park.
There is virtually no place to park a car near a buildina unless it is on
�_ private property. In the condominium market, especially this close to downtown,
� . 1 off-street parking place per unit is not just an amenity but a necessity.
�They are not requesting parkinq in excess of what is needed; there are 16
units and the property in question can accorr�odate 16 garages with the
variances. If any of the variances are denied, they will lose 4 garages.
He also co�renented that the existing structure on the corner has a 0' setback
and the parkinq does relate to the existino building.
James Lyngren, attorney representing Mr. Lilyholm, testified th�t there are
very definite physical characteristics of the land which mil.itates in favor
of granting the variances. There is provision in the Zoning_Code which states
' that setbacks can comply with existi�ng structures and there are numerous
examples throughout the City where there are multi-family structures which
abut intersections particularly in the Hill area. fara�e structures to
the rear are being allowed to be constructed to the setback that is observed
by the existing structure. He stated that the garaaes will also enhance the
st�eetscape. ,
������
. �� .PANAMA FLATS CORPORATION (9002) Page 2
Mr. Grais asked the applicant if there would be a problem with drainage?
Mr. Lilyholm explained that the existing gradinq slopes away from the buildinq
and they would not build a garage that would slope the land to the structure
so there would be no water problem created.
t4r. Osborn asked the applicant if an easement could� be qranted? Mr. Lilyholm
� commented that Mr. Dobbins indicated that it would cause a congested problem
in the existing parking lot and he definitely would ;not allow an easement.
Ms. McNeally reported that in talking with the Traffic Engineer his primary
concern with the double garage is that a person pullino into the garage will
have to either stop on the sidewalk or on the street in order to open the
garage doors to go in and will have to follow the same practice when exiting
from the garage. Whereas;� from a 14-s-tall gara��e �a � erson will always be
pulling into the lot and '.pulling out of the lot and �he maneuverinq space
will be on site. .. �'� .
Mr. Lilyholm commented that all the garages will have automoatic garage door
� openers allowing a person not to get out of the car::unless the power is off.
� Without the varainces, he would have to market 4 url:ats without off-street
parking and with the parking situation in the area, it would be very difficult.
Bill Dobbins, President of Panama Flats South Association, reiterated the
Association's position as indicated in his letter af October 1 , 1981 .
. Nearing no further testimony, Ms. Morton closed the public hearing portion
of the meeting.
Ms. McNeally reported that staff would have no objection to the setback for
the 14-stall garage on Chestnut;the only concern is with the double garage
which would have its access directly onto Chestnut.
Mr. Dobbins stated that they have no problem with the 2 garages. The problem
they have is with the curb cut that relates to the garages. �
��4r. Osborn made a motion to approve Variance 1 based on findings 1 through 5
of the staff report. Mr. Peterson seconded the motion. The mation passed on
a roll call vote of 6 to 0.
Mr. Osborn then made a motion to deny V�riance 2 and 3 based on findings 3 and
4 of the staff report. Mr. Peterson seconded the �motion, The motion passed on
a roll call vote of 4 to 2 .with Mr. Grais and Mr. Kirk voting against the motion.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
A. PURPOSE: Construct 16 detached garages for renovated Panama Flats (14 garages in one
um�t p��us 1 double garage).
B. PARCEL SIZE: 136' on Exchange x 109' on Chestnut = 14,824 square feet.
C. EXISTING LAND USE: Panama Flats (existing) and vacant land to the south; landscaped
area in ront set ack of new Panama Flats structure (location of double qaraqe on
Chestnut).
D. SURROUNDING LAND USE:
North - Single family & corr�nercial (B-5)
South - New Panama Flats (RM-3)
East - Single family & commercial (B-5)
West - New Panama Flats; Irvine Park (RM-3)
E. ORDINANCE CITIITION: Section 61 .101 (d) requires tliat accessory structures be 3' from
. interior lot lines; the applicant nroposes 1 '6" on the east property line (Variance #1 )
and D" on the south (yariance #�) from the Chestnut garage.
Section 62.102(2) requires accessory buildings meet the front setback when abutting
residential use; in this case, the required front yard is 25' on Chestnut; the applicant
proposes 2 feet.
F. FINDINGS:
1 . The request for variance is based on the exceptional size of the property and the
location of the existing building.
The garages (Variance 1 ) must be located parallel to the building with access
from Chestnut; the available area is long and narrow.
The area on Chestnut (Variances 2 & 3) is small and totally within the front yard
setback. �
2. Without variances the owner would, based on the physical characteristics, incur
exceptional practical difficulties in constructing detached garages to service
the 16 condominiums.
• Since this is an existing structure, no garages or off-street parking is required;
it is an amenity the applicant proposes.
� 3. Variance 1 for the interior lot line setback can be granted without substantial
detriment to the community and would not impair the intent and purpose of the
Ordinance. �
The 1 '6" side yard on the east should afford room for maintenance and adjoins the
side yard of the next unit. • .
Variance 2 and 3 would impair the intent of the Ordinance to provide open front
yard setbacks. The proposed garage would appear to be within the yard of the
adjacent unit.

F. FINDINGS CONT'D.
4. The variance for interior lot line setbacks (Variance .l ) can be granted
without substantial detriment to the nei hbors (e.g. , supply of liqht
and air, safety, health, property values�. ,
Variances 2 and 3 would result in a safety and traffic hazard. Cars using
� the garage would back directly onto Chestnut; this curb cut would be within
several feet of two other driveways to parking areas. Additionally, the
busy intersection of Chestnut and Exchange is only � block away.

5. The request for variances is not based primaril:y�on a desire for economic
gain. ;a�

G. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Based on findings 1 through �, staff recortunends approval
. of ariance for �nterior lot line setback variance.; based on findings 3 and 4,
. staff recomnends denial of Variance 2 and 3 for the.front yard setback on
Chestnut.
