RIORDAN Council Recorder The City Council requested that you prepare a resolution granting the appeal of Ralph and Marie Lundgren for permit to erect a four Alex in Class "B" Residence District located on the east side of Burr St. between Case and York Aves., also described as Lot 22, Block 10, Edmund Rice's First Addition. Vel truly Xo s C t Clerk S2 W. Ic V11, T, t r W., T) n MINNESOTA 8 a Dear Sir: This is in the matter'of the appeal of Ralph and Marie Lundgren to erect a four -plex in a nBu residential zone adjoining a, nonconforming four -plex, on property located on the east side of Burr Street between'Case and York Avenues.' The property is described as Lot 22, Block 10, Ed. Rice's First Addition. The zoning "is nBn residence and has been since the adoption of the Ordinance in 1922,. The Zoning_Code prohibits a four- family'use in a nBn residence district. However, under certain conditions as' outlined in'Chapter 64.03 of this code, a person may appeal to the Council for such a use. The applicant qualifies to appeal under this chapter. The property directly adjoining on the south is developed-with a four - family residence which-was originally built as a two - family home in 1884. -The-records are not entirely clear as to when the conversion to a four - family unit,was "made as there have been a number of alterations made to the building some of which were before 1922. This 'property has- a frontage of 50 feet on Burr Street and extends to a depth of 132 feet, resulting`in a total area of 6,600 square feet. The proposed development would meet the recommended standards for density and building ground coverage. North'and adjoining the property under consider- ation is a single = family residence which fronts on Burr Street; south and adjoining is a four -plex which fronts on Burr Street, west across Burr Street is a single - family residence fronting on Burr Street, east and ad- joining is a low, vacant lot which fronts on unimproved Bradley Street. Field investigation discloses that this area is developed almost completely with single and two - family residences which are an older type, but in good repair. In the opinion of the staff, this property should be developed likewise to properly fit the character of the area. The staff feels that the proposed development may be detrimental to the adjoining properties and will deviate from the purpose and intent of the Ordinance. The preliminary land use guide plan indicates that this area should be developed for not more than two - family residential use. The Board of Zoning considered this matter at their regular meeting on November 19, 1959 and recommend the granting of the appeal to construct four -plea on the above described property as proposed by the applicant.

Dated November 25, 1959. JOSEPH R. OXONE S Cl , (November 28, 1959) December 9, 1959 1) This is in the matter of the' appeal of the-Church of the Nativity of Our Lord to establish a 15 foot building line on property located on the south side of Stanford Avenue between-Prior and Fairview Avenues. The property is described as the west 85 feet of Lot 2 and all of Lot 3, Wessinger's Garden Lots. -This property is presently being used for playground and parking pur- poses in connection with the existing church and school. The applicant proposes to construct a new addition to the school building which would involve approximately 345 feet of frontage along Stanford Avenue. The average building line of the 13 residences to the east in this block is 30 feet. The existing church structure'to the west' -is set back 15 feet. The purpose of the appeal is to permit the proposed addition to be constructed with the same set back as the church building in order to permit a better overall utilization'of the property thereby pro- viding a more generous playground area.'kThe proposed - addition will be 120 feet from the west property line of the residence to the east. North across and fronting,on Stanford Avenue are single- family resi- dences; south and adjoining is the existing `scho_ol building'`and play- ground; east and adjoining is-the school playground., farther east are 13 single- family residences - fronting on'Stanford Avenue; west and ad- joining is the existing church building. Field investigation discloses that the proposed 15 foot set back would not be detrimental to the adjoining single family residences due to the distance of 120 feet to the nearest residence. In consideration of the above factors, the Board of Zoning recommends the granting of the appeal to establish a 15 foot set back oil the above described property in accordance with plans approved November 19, 1959. Sincerely, HGW:mm Herbert-C. Wieland Encl. Director of Planning V 1 His Honor The Mayor and The City Council�.a c/o City Clerk Room 386 - City Hall St. Paul, Minnesota His Honor and iGentlemen: The following application constitutes an appeal for a revision of setback require- ments on property as described, and for reasohs as listed herein. The name of the applicant is The Church of The Nativity of Our Lord, a Corporation. The legal description of property referred to in the appeal is as follows: West One -half (VAT 1/2) of Block Two (2) and all of Block Three (3) Wessinger's Garden Lots. The location of the property is between Stanford and Wellesley Avenues to the east of Prior Avenue. Present use of property is parochial school building, church, rectory and play- ground. Proposed use of property is same as above except that the proposed plan includes a new addition to the existing school. Appeal is being made to establish a setback of 15 feet from the property line along Stanford Avenue for a distance of 500 feet east from the corner of Prior and Stan- ford. The existing church at the corner of Prior and Stanford has been constructed with a setback of 15 feet. The appeal is made to allow for construction of a classroom and gymnasium addition onto an existing school building. An addition in the proposed location is desirable, as it opens up dead end corridors in the existing building and will result in very much improved exit facilities from the existing building as well as adequate'exit facilities from the addition, and it deletes the least amount of play- ground space. This appeal is made under Legislative Zoning Code Chapter 64. 03, Paragraph J. �!tj pad FIVE - - - -- i r �a �� __ AnF�LIrA�'• i J Yours very truly, THE CHURCH OF THE NATIVITY OF OUR LORD, a Cor oration, By t N I Jt CPT--- II f I Jt I
