A. HISTORY: An appYication for Zoning Code amendttl2�tt frvm "A� Rt�tdence to Commercial for the purpose of constructing a ".. . Landscaped outdoor advertising structure and for no other purpose as per request of adjoining property owners" was recommended for denial by the Zoning Board of St. Paul at a public hearing July 9, 1970. According to the property history on file (ZF 6985) the requested zoning was granted by the City (CF ��249817) August 15, 1970 containing a requirement for a negative easement restricting use of the property to to the aforementioned purpose. As of October 24, 1975, the property was rezoned to a residential clasaification R-3. Under the provisions of Chapter 62, Section 102, which deals with nonconfo�ing use of property, the original installation was a legal rionconforming use of property and was subjert to the - rules and regulation of that section. Ott or about Dec�mber 22, 1975, upon a citizen complaint, an investigation of the site by a building official revealed that construction to raise the sign facea approximately 30 feet was �r►d2r way without benefit of required permits. A verbal order to cease censtruction was issued by the Building Off�cial on the site as of December 23, 1975. According to the report of that official, the conatruction had proceeded to its present state. Reinspection of the site on Jannary 22, 1976 indicated no further action had taken place on the site. On Januttry 6, 1976 a letter denying the application for a general building permit for construction of the sign was aent to the applicant. : fhti February 24, 1�76, upon field investigation by staff nf the site ,fdr hedring of th� appeal, � determination was made thaC the applicant had fil�d an �rroneous. legal description of the subject property �nd th�tt therefore, notice to �ffected property owners was defect�.ve. At the M�rch 2f �J76 hearing testimony was taken by the $eard of Zoning Appeala fron� peraons opposed to the appeal. The appellgnt has been furnished wifh s copy of the unapproved minutes o� the proceedings. . . <�'7�9� Naegele (Cont'd) p$g� 2 B. APPEAL TO AN ADMINISTRATIVE ORDER DENXING REQTJESTEA P�RMIT: Under the provisione of Saint Pau1 Legislative Code Chapter 62, Section 10,�, Paragraph e, 1., the Zoning Admini,atrator �states that the reconatruction, as initiated and for which the permit was $ubsequestly requested, constitutes � atru�tural 8lteration, ex�ension or::: : reconstruction of an existing structure which in noncon�ornning, in violation of thie provi�ion. C. SITE CONDITIONS: The sign is �ited �bout 3 or 4 feet above street grade at the base, The si�n auperetructure appears to extend 35 feet or more above the street ,�r�de of the adjacent streete. The site is otherwise unoccupied. D. AREA CONDITIONS: Interstate Highway 94 lies directly across the service drive from the sign site. The �eneral area to the northeast and west of the site is developed with low density residential use. The area to the south of the interstate and westward is residential. E. FINDINGS• 1. While situated on residentially zoned property, the advertising � signs are intended for viewing from the interstate highway � system from both directions including the Highway 61 off-ramp entering the interstate from the southwest. The interstate highway in the vicinity has been provided with a "noise abatement wall." The construction of the wall did restrict the visibility of the sign boards due to its height. 2. The continuation of the advertising signs of this location � under the terms of the new Zoning Code in the findings of he`; Zoning Administrator as a nonconforming use is permitted. However, the governing conditions of nonconforming use do not allow for the expansion of each use. 3. The height restriction in all single family residence, zones is 30 feet. Rsising the sign faces 30 feet makes them the highest structures in the immediate vicinity excepting the nearby church steeple. 4. The requested variance does not appear to enhance the aesthetics of this property or adjacent properties. The problem appears to be further complicated in that it appears that the total sign area could be doubled with the new construction. 5. There does not appear to be any unusual conditions owing to unique shape or topography of the site which render it unusable for any of the permitted uses in the existing zone.

That the billboards as they existed prior to the initiation of new construction on or about December 20, 1975, were a legal nonconforming use of residentially zoned property; 2. That the activity initiated by the appellant constitutes an illegal structural alteration, extension or reconstruction and is contrary to the provisions of Chapter 62, Section 102 (c) (1 ) of the Saint Paul Zoning Code; 3. That correction of losses from the diminished viewing distance caused � by the erection of a noise abatement wall in the vicinity of the billboard structure by the Minnesota Highway Department is not, in the Board's opinion, the responsibility of the City of Saint Paul ; 4. That construction of the billboards to the requested height would unreasonably diminish or impair established property values within the surrounding area and would be detrimental to the intent and purpose of the Zoning Ordinance; , 5. That no apparent physical conditions of the property in terms of area, shape, width or topography would prevent .the utilization of the property for any of the permitted uses in the zoning district; • Y r �, ! r • • � • !� ` 9 � '��9 �,,.�. t NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the Saint Paul Board of Zoning Appeals that under the authority of the Saint Paul Legislative Code, Chapter 64, Section 206 ORDERS, it does hereby wholly affirm the orders of the Zoning Administrator of the City of Saint Paul denying the general construction permit requested by the appellant for billboards on property described in the legal description (Exhibit B) hereto attached.
