MINOR ZONING AMENDMENTS
SEPTEMBER 1996
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission has determined that considering and
recommending monthly zoning amendments to the Mayor and City Council is,the
most desirable way to keep the zoning code as current as possible; and
WHEREAS, the Zoning Committee of the Planning Commission held a public hearing
on proposed minor zoning amendments concerning coffee kiosks, making existing
parking spaces in front and side yards nonconforming uses, correcting an error
in a previous garage amendment, and no longer requiring prior state and
federal approval of helistops and heliports at their September 19, 1996,
meeting; and
WHEREAS, the Zoning Committee recommended a revision to the proposed
definition of coffee kiosks;
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission has determined:
1. That the number of real estate descriptions affected by the amendments
renders the obtaining of written consent impractical;
2. That a survey of an area in excess of 40 acres has been made;
3 . That a determination has been made that the proposed amendments to the
Zoning Code are related to the overall needs of the community, to
existing land use, and to plans for future land use; and
4. That pursuant to State Statutes proper notice of the hearing was given
in the Pioneer Press on August 28, September 4, and September il, 1996.

thereafter conform to the regulation for the district in which such land is
located and the nonconforming use may not thereafter be resumed.

Discussion
This amendment will carry-out recently adopted Board of Zoning Appeals (BZA) policy
concerning illegal parking in front or side yards. See attached memo from John Hardwick
and Joyce Maddox, dated June 11, 1996, and BZA guidelines, dated June 24, 1996. Off-
street parking spaces established by a permit from the department of public works before the
adoption of the zoning code will be grandfathered-in as nonconforming uses. Parking spaces
not established with permits before adoption of the code will be allowed to continue if they
meet the guidelines as determined by the BZA.

3. CORRECT ACCESSORY BUILDING ERROR
Sec. 62.106. Accessory buildings.
(3) In any residential area, accessory buildings shall not exceed e����
fifteen (15) feet in height; provided, however, that accessory buildings with a
flat or shed roof style shall not exceed twelve (12) feet in height.
Exception: accessory building heights shall not apply to property within
designated Heritage Preservation Districts nor to designated historic
sites. In these cases appropriate building heights for accessory
structures shall be determined through the design review process to
ensure that heights are acceptable and in keeping with scale and style of
development on the property.
Discussion
"One story" was inadvertently left in this clause when it was revised in the November 1995
Minor Zoning Amendments.
4. DELETE PRIOR STATE AND FAA APPROVAL FOR HELISTOPS
Sec. 60.453. Principal uses permitted subject to special conditions. RM-2 DISTRICTS
(5) Private helistop for emergency medical services which are accessory to a
hospital, subject to the following conditions:
a. The helistop shall be located at least two hundred fifty (250) radial feet
from any residentially used or zoned property, measured in a straight
line from the closest point of the takeoff and landing area to the closest
property line of the residentially used or zoned property.
b. The applicant shall perform a noise analysis to determine whether upon
establishment of the helistop the Noise Pollution Control Rules, Chapter
7010, of the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency would immediately
be violated. If the analysis shows that the rules would be violated, the
applicant shall take measures to prevent the potential violation before
the helistop is established.
c. The helistop shall be constructed, operated and maintained in
accordance with the rules and regulations of the Federal Aviation
Administration (FAA) and State of Minnesota.

d. A site plan of the proposed facility and an area map showing the
distance between the proposed takeoff and landing area and the nearest
residential property shall be provided to the planning commission.
Sec. 60.614. Principal uses permitted subject to special conditions. I-1 DISTRICTS
(9) Heliports and helistops, public and private, located at an airport, subject to the
following conditions:
a. The heliport and helistop shall be located at least one thousand (1,000)
radial feet from any residentially used or zoned property, measured in a
straight line from the closest point of the takeoff and landing area to the
property line of the closest residentially used or zoned property.
b. The applicant shall perform a noise analysis to determine whether upon
establishment of the heliport or helistop the Noise Pollution Control
Rules, Chapter 7010, of the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency,
would immediately be violated. If the analysis shows that the rules
would be violated, the applicant shall take measures to prevent the
potential violation before the heliport or helistop is established.
c. The heliport or helistop shall be constructed, operated and maintained
in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Federal Aviation
Administration (FAA) and State of Minnesota.
d. A site plan of the proposed facility and an area map showing the
distance between the proposed take-off and landing area and the nearest
residential property shall be provided to the commission.
Discussion
As the Children's Hospital zoning case showed, neither the State nor the FAA approves
helistops or heliports prior to completion of construction. The facilities will still have to
meet state and federal rules and regulations.

1NTERDEPARTMENTAL MEMORANDUM
DATE: June 11, 1996
TO: City Council Members, Mayor Coleman
FROM: John Hardwick, LIEP Zoning Staff
Joyce Maddo�hair Board of Zoning Appeals
RE: Parking issues related to street repaving projects.
LIEP in a cooperative effort with Public Works initiated a proactive program to
eliminate existing illegal parking spaces within required front yards. This past
summer Public works staff while surveying neighborhoods in preparation for street
repaving projects notified property owners that curb cuts and driveway aprons
will not be restored or provided for driveways leading to illegal front yard
parking spaces. The notification also included information on the procedure to
apply for a variance in order to legalize these spaces. This resulted in several
variance applications for front yard parking coming before the Board of Zoning
Appeals. The Board, without any forewarning, was faced with a flurry of cases,
each with different situations and histories.The Board heard these cases and
decided each on their individual merits. However, this resulted in some
consternation for the applicants who thought that since their parking space had
been used for 15 or 20 years and no one objected to the continued use, that their
variance should be approved. When their variance application was denied this
�resulted in some decisions being appealed to the City Council. We expect to see
many more cases resulting from future street repaving projects. The Board,
working with staff, in an effort to simplify the process for applicants, provide
some guidance to the Board and reduce the number of appeals to the Council, is
proposing the following:
1. Amending section 62.102 (d) to include a paragraph which states. . . " In
residential zoning districts, an existing off-street parking space in a
required front or side yard shall be considered a legal nonconforming use
provided the parking space was established pursuant to a permit issued by
Public Works prior to October 25, 1975 and that the use has been
continuous since the permit was issued."
2. Adopting the attached Guidelines in order to assist Staff in making
recommendations and the Board in evaluating variance requests concerning
parking within a required yard.
3. Establishing a reduced i$90) application fee for variance requests
relating to one and two family residential parking and specifically
parking within a required yard.

Council President David Thune and
Members of the City Council
3rd Floor City Hall
Saint Paul, Minnesota 55102
Dear President Thune and members of the City Council:
Beginning in 1982, the Planning Commission periodically considered and recommended
to the City Council a series of minor zoning amendments contained in 40-acre studies
called Zoning Amendments I, II, etc. There have been eight of them. The zoning
amendments made changes needed to bring the code up to date with new living or
business practices, carry-out newly adopted plans, clarify regulations, correct errors,
and incorporate zoning administrator interpretations and Planning Commission findings.
Since these 40-acre studies were done only periodically, needed zoning amendments
were delayed until staff, the Commission, and City Council had the time to work on
them. In order to avoid such delays and to keep the code as current as possible, the
Commission will consider and recommend to the City Council several minor zoning
amendments most months.
The most recent Minor Zoning Amendments recommendations concerning coffee
kiosks, making existing parking spaces in front and side yards nonconforming uses,
correcting an error in a previous garage amendment, and no longer requiring prior state
and federal approval of helistops and heliports are attached.
The Zoning Committee of the Planning Commission held a public hearing on the
proposed amendments on September 19, 1996. The Commission recommended their
approval on September 27, 1996, as set forth in the attached resolution.
