Patrick Boylan, City Planner. <br /> <br />The Planning Commission and the New Brighton City Council at their respective <br />May meetings, directed City Staff to research and provide code options whereby the <br />City Code might be amended to allow additional diversity of house, garage, <br />accessory structure design on large lake lots. They were to focus on bulk coverage <br />requirements, quantity of detached accessory structures and review of “yard” <br />definitions. <br /> <br />th <br />At the June 15 meeting, Mr. Boylan presented some options to Commissioners, <br />based on his research and study of the subject. (See attached Planning Report). <br /> <br />The Commissioners studiously discussed the information presented, including review <br />of maps, definitions of riparian lots, information provided on codes of other cities, <br />similar options for other types of large lots. What is the front yard, road side or <br />lakeside? Lot size vs. buildable lot size. Could applicants redesign their structures <br />to make them conform? Could property owners use off site storage instead of <br />building accessory structures? <br /> <br />After much discussion, it was the consensus of the Commissioners to have staff <br />report to the City Council on the above. They also seek more information on an area <br />such as Lake Minnetonka. Commissioners want to move slowly on any changes, so <br />as not to create a bigger problem than they would be solving. <br />2 <br />I:\COMMISSIONS\PLANNING\Minutes\2004\06_15_04.doc <br /> <br />
