Mr. Joseph Okoneski
City Clerk

Dear Sir:
This is in the matter of the appeal of Frederick W. Hoelzel to establish a 25 foot
Y
building line on property located on the west side of Hazelwood Street between Ivy
and Sherwood Avenues. The prpperty is described as the north 62 feet of Lot 5,
Block 2, Rogers and Hendricks Acre Lots No, 2. The zoning is }/A1' Residence and
has been since the adoption of the Zoning Ordinance in 1922.
The site is presently developed with a small one -story structure which is being
torn dawn in order to develop the site with a new single - family dwelling. The
site has a frontage of 62 feet along Hazelwood Street and a depth of 300.25 feet
which results in an area of about 18,615 square feet. The provisions of the Build-
ing Code require a set back of 60 feet on this lot. The lot to the north is only
125 feet deep and requires a set back of 25 feet. The present set back requirement
of 60 feet would result in the proposed structure being located to the rear of any
other structures built to the north.
North and adjoining the property under consideration is vacant land, also the
rear yard of a residence which faces on Prosperity Avenue to the west; west and
adjoining is the rear yard of a residence fronting on Prosperity Avenue; south
and adjoining is a vacant lot; farther to the south is a single - family residence
fronting on Hazelwood Street which is set back a distance of 17J feet; east and
across Hazelwood Street is a single- family residence fronting on Hazelwood Street
and a vacant lot also fronting on this street.
Field investigation discloses no basic objection to establishing a 25 foot set back
for this property. To do so would not be detrimental to any of the adjoining pro-
perties as it is in keeping with the set back requirements in the immediate area.
The Board of Zoning considered this matter at their meeting on August 27, 1959, and
recommend the establishing of a 25 foot set back on the above described property.

premises hereinafter described, ~respectfully petitions, the Council, pur-
suant to Section 20j of the Bui ding,Zone,Oidinance Nos 5840 (Legislative -
Zoning Code, Chapter 64 *03j) -to "a -variance' from: the building,' setback s

Building Zone Ordinance,, with reference to.the premises described -as's.
The North Sixtyc*two (N 62) feet of Lot Five. (5).
Block Two (2)s Rogers,-and. Hendricks'Acie Lots Vo;
2, according to the plat thereof on f ile and of
record in the office of the Register of Deeds in
and for Ramsey .County, Minnesota;
said premises being located on the west side of Hazelwood Street north of
Ivy Avenue. '
The above described premises extend 62 feet in width on Hizelb
r wood Street and approximately-300-feet in'depth from fazelwood Street,- }•- r
The block'bounded by Hazelwood Street,,Ivy Avenue_,, and Prosperity Avenue
contains many irregularly shaped building'_lots of various_depths fronting
on,both Prosperity ►venue -and- Hazelwood Street.. At the present time, there
is only one residence - occupied in the block facing on Hazelwood Street
located on Lot '4, which'present dwelling is set back only 17 *5 feet from
the -line of Hazelwood Street. Because of_the irregularly shaped lots in
the block, it is difficult to determine the "average depth of` the lot" as
defined by Section 16a =o£ the•Building Zone Ordinance, in order to d.eterh
mine the•setbick required by the ordinances - -
- The petitioner proposes io a rect'upon the above •described prem:.
"__ • _ices _a- _..residence .for,:his_ own=occupancy, -which wili-,have�- the`�a`ppioximate °' T -�'

dimensions of 37 feet in width (fronting on Hazelwood Street) and a depth
of approximately,47 feet, with a walkout - basement on the rear. If the j
petitioner is required to set his building back 20 percent of -the depth
of his lot, a building_line of 60�feea will be established, The adjacent

lot to the north the easterly 125'f'ei-of 'Lot ",4) is owned by Andrew,.Berg,
' who proposes,to erect Cresidence thereonj,agd :because this lot has a Tde
pth
of only 125 feet. a..setback�.of� 60- feet would be highly +'impractical, If a,
-setback of 20 percent .of the depth,*- or 25 feet, is required. on' the Berg
property and a'setback of 60 feet required oa.the petitioner's property,,.- ,
the petitioner's 'dwelling -house will be located in the backyard,`of the
house to be�constructed,on the adjacent property., and also well behind
the existing structure now located to the south on Lot 6 (1349 Hazelwood
Street), which is set-back only 17,5 feets
' For the reasons herein stated, the petitioner respectfully reh
quests that the Council establish it building line for construction on
Hazelwood Street irk the block lying north of Ivy Avenue, requiring a sets
back of 25 feet from -_the west line of Hazelwood Street.'
Two copies -of a survey shbwing the premises -in question and'_
portions of adjacent premises are - submitted herewith.
