platted land. (3) The lof or lots meet the minimum standards for lot width and area for
the zoning district in which they are Iocated. (4) The division of the /ofs shall not cause a
remainrng part of a lot fo become a separately described tracf which does not meet the
minimum standards of the zoning district in which it is located or which does nof have
streef irontage and access to municipal services. (5) The division does not resu(t in a
split zoning classification on a single lot. (6) The division does not result in the creation
of a nonconforming structure or use. Ail conditions are met except condition 2. The
applicant needs a variance of condition 2 to avoid platting. The findings that must be
made to approve the variance are listed in finding 4.
3. § 67.406 of the Zoning Code requires that all of the following findings shall be made
prior to approval of a subdivision:
(1) All the applicable provisions of the Legislative Code are compiied with. City staff
have reviewed the proposed lot split and have determined that all applicable
provisions of city codes are met.
(2) The proposed subdivision will not be detrimenta! fo the present and potential
surrounding land uses. The proposed lot split is consistent with the surrounding
land uses, and will not be detrimental to present and future use of surrounding land.
�
(3) The area su�rounding the subdivision can be planned and developed in �
coordination and compatibility wrth the proposed subdivision. The area surrounding
the proposed lot spiit is already developed and compatible with the proposed lot
split.
(4) The subdivision is in conformance with fhe comprehensive plan. The subdivision is
in conformance with the land use chapter of the comprehensive plan, which calis for
industriai uses.
(5) The subdivision preserves and incorporates the site's rmportant existing natural
features whenever possible. The site is in a fully-developed part of St. Paul with no
remaining naturai features.
(6) Ai/ land intended for building sites can be used safely without endangering
residents by peril from floods, erosion, continuously high water table, severe soil
conditions or other menace. The site is a flat, fully developed area with no flooding,
erosion, high water table or soil condition problems.
(7) The subdivision can be economically served with public facilities and services. The
subdivision is served with public facilities and services from surrounding streets.
4. The applicant is requesting a variance of the requirement in Sec. 67.301(3) and Sec.
67.304(2) to piat previously unplatted land. Sec. 67.703 Variances states that the city
council may grant a variance to the subdivision regulations when compliance would
create an unusual hardship to the development of the land, based on findings that: •
(1) The intent of this chapter is met; (2) The granting of the variance will not be
detrimental to the public safefy, heaith or welfare or injurious to other property or
improvements in the neighborhood in which the property is located; (3) The conditions
b3 - llDa
Zoning File # 03-357-158
• Cily Council Staff Report
page 3
upon whrch fhe request for a variance is based are unique to the property for which the
variance is sought and are generally not applicable to other property; (4J The literal
interpretafion of the provisions of fhis chapter would deprive the applicant of rights
commonly enjoyed by other properties in the same zoning district,� (5) The special
condifions and circumstances do not result from the actions of fhe applicant; and (6)
Because of the parficular natural surroundings, shape or fopographica! conditions of the
specific properfy involved, unusual hardship to fhe owner would result as distinguished
from a mere inconvenience, if fhe sfrict lefter of these regulafions were carried out.
The conditions are met. The variance requested is due to a unique circumstance in
which the owner of Jason's Dry Ice is seeking to add parking to his triangular lot.
Platting is generally intended for large, multi-lot subdivisions where lots will be sold and
new development will take place. Platting is unreasonable at this time when no new
development will occur, and the area involved is small. Platting will be necessary if and
when a future change in ownership for redeveiopment occurs, and should occur at that
time.
1. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Based on required findings 1 through 4, staff recommends
approval of the lot split proposed by Jason's Dry Ice with variance of the requirement to plat
previously unplatted land at the �orthwest corner of Charles Street extended and Transfer
Road, subject to the condition that the applicant shall file a copy of the Council Resolution
� approving the lot split with the Ramsey County Recorder's Office.
