O'Connell C ity Clerk Building Dear Madam: This is in the matter of the appeal of the Jehovah Evangelical Lutheran Church to relax the building Line set back requirement to permit a canopy on property located on the south side of Thomas Avenue between Snelling Avenue and•Asbury Street. The property is described as the west-10-feet of-Lo-t-.9-and all of Lot 10, Block 3, Hamline Syndicate Addition #3. The property is zoned "C" residence. The site is developed in part with the existing church structure, parish offices and meeting rooms which front on Snelling Avenue. East of the church structure are three single - family residences fronting on Thomas Avenue. It is proposed to remove all of the above buildings and construct a new church. It is necessary to obtain Council approval to secure a change in the building line set back for the portion of the site above described to permit construction of a•canopy over the entrance to the church building which Would extend from the faeQ of the building to the Thomas Avenue property line. (See attached plot plan for overall plan.) The pres n set back o he remaining residences in the block to the east is 20 feet. However, the required set back under Chapter 62 of the Legis- lative Zoning Code is 12 feet. The entire site is IT' shaped having a frontage of 234.5 fiei�e:7 on Thomas Avenue and 149.85 feet on Snelling Ave- nue resulting in a total area of approximately 31,211 square feet. East and adjoining and fronting on Thomas Avenue are single - family resi- dences and one multi- residence at the end of the block; north and across Thomas Avenue is the Hamline playground; south and across a public alley fronting on Edmund Avenue are single - family residences, also commercial uses which front on Snelling Avenue; west across Snelling Avenue are various commercial uses. Field investigation discloses no objection to this proposal. The Board is of the opinion that the proposal will not have a detrimental effecg on the residences in the block to the east. The proposed canopy will be a minimum of 75 feet at its closest point from the adjoining residence to the east. In consideration of the above factors, the Board of Zoning recommends the granting of the appeal to establish a building line of zero (0.00) feet from the north property line on the above described property for the purpose of constructing a canopy over the church entrance in accord- ance with plans submitted December 21, 1961. v Sincerely, � /,/. c H.
