Mr, Sorenaon su�arized the staff report stating that the proposal is to permit the continued use as a 3-plexa The buildix►g was constructed as a duplex in 1897. A permit was issued fur the construction of an addition in 1936--a possibie third unit. The Comprehensive Plan recor�aends this property and area be clasaified for one and two-f�mily, town or row houses, 15 dwel.ling units p�r acre. The site is occupied with an older resideatial atructare u�ed as a 3-plex and a two•car garage. 40 feet aloag East Gerenium Avenue and 121,36 feet along Walsh Street result in an area of 4,854.40 square feet. A 3-plex in "C" Residence requires 6,900 square feet. A letter dated May 27, 1969, from Mr, Ames, City Architect, to Mrs. Dahlby was noted. It ateted that her residence was in a "B" Resfdence diatrict, and therefore, the use as s 3-plex �ras illegal. This condition was diecovered when a building inapector w�s checking the building. Mr, Sorenson concluded that the pr�posal represents spot zoning; the area is short of the requirement and, ther�fore, would aeed appeals Co conform; the area for additional off-street parking is limited; and the purpose of code eaforcement is to have a�l structures conform to and meet Che minimum standaxda af the code� not to use the various codes to legal2ze those properties that have instifficient frontage ana3 area under prr�aent codes. The petitioner, Mrs. Ruth Dahlby, said the house ia too large for the lot and has been all renewed. She has lived there for 25 years and renCs mainly to eZderly people„ Theae people geaerally do not own cars, thus eliminatiug parking problems. She atated that parking in front and on the side of the structure are from residents up the black. Following a question from Mr. McPartlin dealin� with a r�solution being passed to change �this type of thing, Corporation Counsel Daniel Klas said a practical solution should try to be worked out with the Board of Appealso rlr, Gauger expre�sed � desire to find an alternative to the rezoning petitione -11- MRS, RUTH B, D�HLBX {ZJ19/70} (Continued): Mr� Sor�nso� stated tliat perhaps the Zcning B�ard should lay the matter over i�defi�ite�y to en�ble the zoning staff to report the possibility of incorporating something into the Zoning Ordinance. �r. T4cPartlin moved for an indefinite 1�yo�er to explore an alternate solution to general problems involving illegal 3-plexea. The motion was seconded by Mr. Gadler, which carried uaanimous�y. Mr, 5orenson indicated that the sCaff �oald repoxt back to the Board prior to rescheduling the ma�ter and would keep the petitioner �nformed. Submitted by: �olonel La Sorenson Rober� Lo Ames, Chairnoan _1�_ - MINUTES OF THE PtJBLIC HEARING BEFORE THE BOA�D OF 20NING on TQ�►►ursday, August 20, L97a, at 2.t00 P,Mo PRESENT: MeESrs. Doody, GadZer, Gauger, McFarklin, and Maietta of the Board, as�.d Measrs. Brown and Sorenson, �nd Mrs. Frantzen of the ataff. MRS. RUTH B, DAHLBY: A petitfon to rezone from "B" to "C" Residence to allow contfnued use of the building as a 3-plex on property located on the southwest corner of East Geranium Avenue and Walsh Stre�t. Mr, Sarenson noted thaC at the February 19, 1970, Zaning Board meeeing thia matter wae laid over indefinitely to explore an alternate solutioa Co general problems involving illegal 3-plexes. He noted that legal opfnion had been received to the e£fect that legalization would require rezoning. He then su�narized Che staff report and nated the foL�.owing conclusiona: the preaent use may not be detrimental to surrounding propertfes but thfs would be a borderline case because of the densi�y. There are many dnp�exes in this area; a few have aLready been converted. The potential for other conversione is high, but woul.d probably not be a problem without a housing shortsge. This particular property is 30% ahort of the m�.nimum area required by the Code, even if rezoned. Parking is available for three cars and to provide �ore parking, the rear yard woald be eliminated. The property has owcxer occupancy, and if the use is approved, it shouZd b� restricted to the life of the pres�nt structure an�l occupancy of Che present owner, and should be conditioned on con�inuoess complfance with all Code requirements. Mr, Sorenson noCed that with � negative easement this structure could not be torn down and rep2aced with a 5-unit building, for example. This home wes buiit in 1897 and possibly converted in 1936. Mrs. Dahlby, the petitioner, nated the home has a 3-car garage, and that everyone in the block uses her land for parking. Every year she has problems with snow plows. �he st�ted she bought the property in 1950 and did not convert �he duplex. She bel.ieves the stre�cture was similar to its present use in 1938. There are two apar�nents on the main floor, and the house has four bathxooms. The yard is small, and she noCed that the house is nicely kept up. As of September 10, 197Q, the back apartment will be vacant. She noted that this petition was filed following an inspectioa due to the renewal program in Che area. Mr. Gaug�r read part of �he le�ter sent to Mrs. Dahlby by the City Architect's office notin$ the illegal use. According to the Code, Mr. Sorenson said two units plus up to five sleeping rooma would 1�e allowed with the existing "B" Residence zoning. If kitchen facilities are installed, it is considered a u�ft. Mrs. Dahl�iy noted thst the c$re�aker lives on the second floor. -5- � , ,,, . - • N;RSs RUTH B. DAI�LBY (8/2U/70) (Continued): Appearing in opposition was Mr. Bruce Vento, 750 East Geranium Avenue, who said to chenge the Code would be to encourage other canversiana fn the area. The area has a lsrga nuunber of goasible changes, and the situation might occur where there would be an sbsentee landlord. He feels this use is inconsistent with the nei$hborhood, and that the property doesn't allaw for a dense population. Mr. Maietta asked the ataff wheCher tax informatioa had been obtained. Mro Sorenson noted that it wasn't passible to find out the basis o£ the tax asseasment. Mrs. Dahlby couunented Chat xher� has never been a complafnt by peoplE: in tY►e naighborhood. Sh� £urther noted that a besuty ahop eearby is zor�ed Coamaerc ia 1. . Mr. McPartlin moved for denisl of the petition, stating that other vinlations of the City Code may exist, deneity is Coo far off, and that density etandards are Zacking too much to consider approving this. The motion wss aeconded by Mr. Maietta, who noted there wauld be a 30% variance. The motion carried unanimousLy; Mro Doody stated this ia s hardahip on the owner, but the zaniag should have been checked before t'ne purchase of C�is home.

BOARD OF ZONING, CITY OF ST. PAUL , 1010 COMMERCE BUILDING • ST. PAUL,MINNESOTA 55101 • PHONE: 223-4151 September 9, 1970 Mr. Harry E. Marshall City Clerk Room 386 City Hall Dear Sir: � C��`'F� �T ;��s v'� This is written in response to the petition of Mrs. Ruth B. Dahlby to rezone from "B" to "C" Residence property located on the southwest corner of East Geranium Avenu,e and Walsh Street, and more fu11y described as: `i�r _ Lot 1, Block 21, Oak��e Park �lddi�ion 2. This matter was first considered by the Board of Zoning at its meeting of February 19, 1970. The Board, in discussing the matter at that time, expressed concern that the rezoning procedure was being used to correct an existing illegal use. The matter was rescheduled for the August 20, 1970, meeting along with four other similar petitions to rezone to correct the illegal residential uses. The staff report noted that Building Department records indicate that the structure was built as a duplex in 1897. A permit was issued for the construction of an addition in 1936 which may, in fact, have been the time the third unit was added. A letter from the City Architect to the petitioner dated May 27, 1969, notes the violation of the Zoning Ordinance which limits the occupancy to two units and calls for de-conversion to that number. It was noted that up to five sleeping rooms, however, could be included with the duplex use. The staff noted that the site, with frontages of 40 feet on East Geranium Avenue and 121 feet on Walsh Street,has an area of about 4,850 square feet. Even if rezoned, therefore, a density appeal would be required since 6,900 square feet are required for a 3-plex in "C" Residence. The staff noted that the area is occupied with older one and two-family residences in generally good condition with occasional 4 or 5-unit structures. Staff conclusions also noted that the present use may not be detrimental to surrounding properties, but this would be a borderline case because of density. There are many duplexes in this area, a few of which have been converted, and the potential for other conversions is high. The property is 30 percent short of the minimum area required by the Zoning Code, even if rezoned, and parking is available for only three cars at the present time. The staff noted that the property has owner occupancy and recommended that if the petition is granted, a negative easement be attached restricting the "C" Residence use to the life of the present structure and occupancy of the present owner, and should be conditioned on continuous compliance with all Code requirements. Mrs. Dahlby, the petitioner, noted the home has a 3-car garage, and that everyone in the block uses her land for parking. Every year she has problems with snow plows. She stated she bought the property in 1950 and did not convert the duplex. She believes the structure was similar to its present use in 1938. There are two apartments on the main floor, and the house has four bathrooms. The yard is small, and she noted that the house is nicely kept up. As of September 10, 1970, the back apartment will be vacant. She noted that this petition was filed following an inspection due to the renewal program in the area. She noted that the caretaker lives on the second floor, and that the � -1- �r�� J • Mr. Harry E. Marshall (continued) September 9, 1970 has never been a complaint by people in the neighborhood. One neighborhood resident appeared in opposition, noting that if this rezoning is granted, it may encourage other conversions in the area, some of which would result in absentee landlords. He noted that the proposed use is inconsistent with the neighborhood and that the property doesn't allow for a dense population. The Board discussed this rezoning petition as well as the other similar petitions before the Board. They again expressed concern that they were being asked to legalize a previous conversion done in violation of City codes. They noted that while a hardship certainly exists for the present owner, the density variance that would have to be appealed is excessive at 30 percent. Subsequently, the Board, by a 5-0 vote, recommends denial of this petition to rezone to "C" Residence. Very truly yours, r . �/��-� �� PETER J. ETTA Secretary, Board of Zoning PJM:gaf CLS Z.
