PAUL `����'�- ---`� 1010 COMMERCE BUILDING � ST. PAUL,MINNESOTA 55101 • PHONE: 223-4151 A.ugust 6, 1969 Mr. Harry E. Marshall City Clerk Room 386 City Hall Dear Sir: This is written in response to the appeal of Gordon R. Struck to relax the density requirements of the Zoning Code as they apply to property located on the southwest corner of Marshall Avenue and Wheeler Street. This property is further described as: Lots 1 and 2, Block 2, Skidmore and Cassedy's Park Addition This matter was considered at the July 3, 1969, Board of Zoning meeting. The staff reported that the proposed apartment use is proper under the "C" Residence zoning of the site, but that the area of 12,880 square feet permits nine units while the appellant desires ten. Ten units under existing standards require 13,200 square feet, indicating a variance of about 22%. Staff conclusions noted that the proposed use could help revitalize the area, although there is no evidence or clairn� of hardship peculiar to this site that would justify the variance. Mr. Struck, the appellant, stated that the permitted nine units would be in conflict with his proposed floor plan. Several neighbors spoke in opposition to the appeal stating that the appellant has not maintained other new apartments he has constructed nor the present uses on this site, and that the proposal may create a traffic hazard. After further discussion, it was the finding of the Board of Zoning that the appellant was within the law in asking for the appeal and that the variance was small. The Board, therefore, recommends approval of this appeal to relax the density requirements by a vote of 3-2. Very truly yours, � ,,� ` � TER J ET A !

STRUQC: An appeal to relax density requirements ta permit the erection of s 10-uuiC apartment builc�iag with 12 garages. Mr. Sorenson outlined the staff report atating the site is short of the area require- ments by a 2.42 percentage -- unit basis SS0.5 sq. ft. ahort, 68.9�. The frontage along Marahall Avenue is zoued "C" xesidence and the area to the south is $oned "B" Residence. The site is presently occupied by two single-family frame reaidences in need of some rehabilitation. The volume of tra€fic on Marshall Avenue is high. The multi-family usea in this area are predominsatly contained ia old structures that have been converted. l�r. Sorensan gave the following points in favor of the appeal: 1) the zoniag fa proper for this use; and 2) new conatruction could help revitalize Che area. He gave these points against the appeal: i) the density etandards are reasonable; 2) the variance baeed on one additional unit is exceesive (total variance 2.42'�); and 3) no evidence or claim of hardship peculiar to the site. Dr. Strnck, the appellant, said he would make an effort to make the new apartments nicer-than-average. Ae also said he wouldn't want to have it cut dowa to a 9-uait structure because that would conflict with the basic floor plan. Mr. William Hunt, a neighbor speaking for the neighbors in opposition, stated that Dr. Struck's many properties are deteriorating snd not kepC up at all. Mr. Bdward Cusick, 1768 Marshall, co�►ented that subject property atood empty for three yeare. Mrs. Eve�yn DeRoaier said the apartmen� building would create a traffic hazard. Dr. Struck agreed that the outside of the preaeat buildings on the aite are in need of repair; he said there is so �ch work neceasary, it i�e difficult to know whexe to begin � it would not pay to invest money in the old buildinge. Nr. John Moody said there are two apart�ent buildings in the �m�uediate ares which are sufficiene; he felt that geople living in apartments tend to be transients. Dr. Struck said the neighbors` opposition is beaed on feeliags. not facta. Mr. Gadler stated that he was oppoaed to the appeaZ because of ths ob�ections fx'om the neighbors. Mr. Cohen moved for approval becauae the varisnce was slight and Dr. Struck was within the law in askiag for the appul; Mr. MafetCa seconded the motion. It wae a eplit vote of 3-2 in favor, with I�iesars. Ames aad Gadler voting in oppoaitioa. Submitted by: Colonel L.
