M.r. . 0'?deill stated � that this case involved the matter of a corner lot on �?illcrsst Ave. anc� r��acalester St . He said tTiat tIlere �nras no sidewalk on �tacalester St . Exfiibitin� a diaaram, Mr , 0'Tleill nointed out the location on �iacalester and Hillcrest. He sho�,ved that as ?.�acalester ran sotzth, the street �was 60 �eet wide with no sidewalks at �ahere the a��ellant re- sicied on tae corner. As the street trent down to the next block to Boland Ave . , '�?acalestex narrot,red do�vn to 30 f.eet . As r-lacalester Gt . follo�red �o�vn t� the next block, tfie street narrot,red down to 10 feet and then came to the location of the Highla�c� Park Elementary School . �Ie stated lie was nointing out that fact because it did become im�or. tant . �n describing t�e sit�aation, `1r. O�Neill stated that in Sentember, 1973, the apnellant, �-1r. Levine , decided to change h.is gara�e from a one car to a t�ao car garage . Because of P�-�r. Levine T s heart conciition, it was necessary to build`: an-_eye type door, in order to have a two-car garage. _ Mr. Levine received a nermit £rom the citv of St . Paul and nroceecl_ed. to start construction. Ne was almost 85% or 90o comvleted when someone from the city came by and sai�i, "I think you might be over the �ronertv line -- you had better get a survey. " � P�4r. 0'Neill stated tnat ��r. Levine , therefore , `�ad a survey made , co�v of �ahich r�ir. O�Neill tllen ex�ibited to the �oard, i,�?zich showed r�ir. � Levine's barage to be extending over the lot line , r�Ir. . Levine had contacted ��r. 0''Veill , �rTio in turn contacted the City A_ttorney' s �ffice . The City Attorney` s Office had advisec� ?�1r. O�Neill , "��ell , what you had f better do, considering t?�e situation with the street here ancl th� very `- . little use or nossibility of ever extending or ��ridenin.� t?i�t street , you cou]_d recommend for a vacation. '� � �1r. O�Neill stated that he did so and he exhibited to the Board �•�embers a copy of_ tIle �etition, wliich he ha�1 �resented to the City Council to show that all or the peo-�le who lived on the f.our corners had joined in this petition, because thev did not see it as any dif£iculty. r�4r. 0":`deill stated that he had tallced to the members of the Council when the matter ca.me before the Council , and they had indicated that while they were of a liI:elihood to mak_e a grant , the �etition for vaca- tion , tliey thought, would set a very bad nxecedent. They, therefore , had asked the City Attorney' s Office to meet with �-�r. �'?�eill to work out some 1�:ind of a per.mit for the lif_e of. tne garage. P,�r. 0'Neill stated that they tlien did meet and taorked out the situation and that the matter was still �ending before the City Council Public titi�orlcs Committee . P�1r. 0'�Veill stated that at the time that he had made �� application before the City Council , he had asked for a variance on the Building Code. The City Council had indicated that the matter was �ro- �erly a case f.or the Zoning. Board. r�r. 0'Neill then nre�ared a netition or the Zoning Board, and had sent in the ap�lication and r?oney for the filing fee . FIowever, the anplication ti�as rejected with an in�icatian that t�e pro?�er place f.or this matter was before the St . Paul Board o� An�eals and Review. � C , ' S'9-73-B--1640 Hillcrest 11/27/73 - I:leeting �o. 95 � • Cassette Tane �o. 107 - Page 6 � ➢ � 262�f b � "So , i�1r.

Q0 - l , C. , �rhich nrovides under this Section tfiat garages loca_ted on tfie corner lots s�ould be set back for a distance o� at least eight �8� feet f.rom the si3e lot Iine. " �1r. 0'rIeill then nresented so:�e nictures of the area, and stated` that the Department o.f. Public Safety had also examined the matter ar_d indi- cated t?zat t:�ere was r.o safety problem. ?�4r. OtNeill also state�J. that he thought �•4r, Donovan in the EngineerTs Of.fice , had felt that it would set a bad �recedent and their of.f_ice had made a recommendation to the City Council t�at t�e original petition be deniAd. P�r. 0'�•1eil� , hoi�iever, tliought tFiat tFie Council was of the mood that they were going to grant the petition if i��r. O�:�eill could work something out with the City Attorney' s Office . P�Tr. 0'Neill summarized his �resentation by referring again to the ex- hibits for the Board' s exar�inatzon -- the certificates of surve��, the petition wi.th the signatuxes of the neighbors , a man of. the area, and pictures of_ t'ne garage and premises and the streets� involvAd, incluciin� the nictures ta�en by the Executive Secretarv o .f_ the Board. i�7r. 0'Neill said he £elt the chances of the widening of r�acalester St. �,rere a minimum. ?-ir. 0'Neill state;i that �?r. Segal of the City Attor�.ey 's Office �acl sent Izim a letter w?�ich he thouc�ht containe� most ?.ikel.y what the Council intended to do on the nroblem of tfie garage being on � � public pro�erty. The Ie'tter state� that the Council ' s: nerr�ir could �: . , provide permission and authority:" . . . are hereby granted to the o�•aners of tlie subject nronertv, to install and maintain a �ara�e as located on the pronerty on plans a�nrove�. b� tfie Dent. o� public t{rorks , that the permission and authority� to maintain a garage within the nub�ic street . right-of-ti�ray, . t�rould continue f..or the life of the nresent garage , and furtlie for the condition upon tl�e City CoLincilts retaining t?ie ri�ht to revoke t.ie permit at any time i.he nublic necessity would reauire� upon nrior written notice, thereto, t?�e owners of the property , an onnortunity of a }iearing. It is co:iter�nlated that the permit would not be rev��:eci un- less the nublic necessity required the use of the street for widening of T�iacalester St . In that event , the owner of the nronerty would be required to remove the gara�-e at his own cost an� expense. " r?r. 0"�1ei11 said he guessed that t;-�at likelihood ' =- -- - ��rould be very very remote. �4r. Dan Person, Cliief Buil_ding Insnector of the �uilding De�t. , stated he wanted to clarify one statement : That is , that Building Ins�ector, I��Ir. Amey was out there , anci had renorte�. that�`the garage �vas almost " done:` ?.Tr. Person said that was not true , that tne garage slab ha.ct not even, been noured : yet when ��r. Amey '�ad insner�ted the garaae nroperty. ^�r. Amey• told the owners that it was built/o�er t?�e nublic nronerty. H�wever, �he owner continued to build there even after t�eir cl_e�artment iiad told him that he could not do so. :�1r. Person said tI�at he could verify his rertarlcs with Inspector Amey; : and P��r. 0'Neill stated he would have to have his client nresent also -- � � that there was a disnute over that matter. T�r. 0'rJeill stated t'iar it was on Sept. 23 , 1973 , that the nermit was obtained fr�m the P>uil.cling Dept . , and it �aas in the first part of r�ovember that notice was received � 59-73-B--1640 Hillcrest 11/Z7/73 - ?�eeting ?�TO. 95 � Cassette Tane ?�to . 107 � � � �a�e 7 2���'�� �� that the o�Jners might nossibly be over the nronerty line. ��r. 0'Neill stated he did not lcnow i�a?Zen that certificate of survey i,ras da�ed, but it was shortly thereafter -- on the 21st of_ ?�lovember , 1972 , that thev ti�ent out and got the survey. Chairma:n Ydozniak aslced Building Inspector , }'erson , if the city rec�uired a plot plan of garages to be submittec? for nermit nur�oses . r.2r. �?erson stated no , that the city did not have this rec{uirement . Chairman i+lozniak commented that it might �e because they tiaere too expensive to obtain. Building Inspector Perso�. Said tnat nrobably t?�is was one of the problems tI�at they had. Peo71e coi�l� go to tFle Ruil�ing Dent. and ob- tain a Building Permit , ho�aever, they did not have ar.y idea where their lot lines were and they got a �ermit , and then t?�ey would nroceed tivith their construction. Then all of a sudden they would tind out that they �aere over the property line and it did create a r�roblem. "�Ir. Person stated that in one family or two family c�wellings the basic contractor was reqtiired to be licensed for doin� the work. Jn this event , A1r. Levine , as a fiome-owner , si.gned t�e ?�ermit , �icked un the permit himself, and insQdoina , ?�e assumed the resnonsibility of the garage�being in the prop�r place . The licensed mason contractors in these instances , iaere aware of the location on the pro�ertv ?�rhere the garage itself should be. Hor�rever, r�4r. Levine , took this resnonsibility himself when he tool: out his own buildin� nerr�it. �_ '4r. 0'Neill stated that he was sure that such was true , and that was - tlle rea�on that the Board of �npeals was set un for the pur�oses of tal:ing care of such situations wnich do develop on a hardshi.n basis . !�1r. 0'Neill said he tieas sure it ti>>as l���r. Levine' s responsibilzty and that ti•ras why they were before th� Board of Anpeals , because �1r. Levine Urent ahead and had it done. Perhans , if there had been a masanxy contractor or someone else , that ilould .iave been done the other tivay , but unfortiinate- ly, the citizens could not always knotv all the rules and re�ulations. Hopefully, that was �rhy we have the Board of Appeals . There Ueing no further discussion on the case , Chairman '+!ozni�.l. asked for a motion on the matter. r�r. Kamin i�10VED that the variance be granted from the req_uirement under the St. Paul Legislative Buil�.inn Goae , 40 . 0� - l . C. 1�1rs . Sommerdorf secon�ed the motion.
