698 17th Avenue <br />New Brighton, MN 55112 <br />October 18, 1976 <br />City Council <br />New Brighton, MN <br />Gentlemen: <br />I would like to request that final consideration on my request for <br />variance, on the property located at 698 17th Avenue NW, await the <br />results of a firm surveyors report on the property. I have engaged <br />Donald Carly & Associates to provide specific dimensions concerning <br />the property. <br />It is my belief that if the builder had located the present structure <br />a few feet south when the original construction occurred, that a two <br />car garage could have been easily construced on the property. I <br />realize the fifteen foot set back is a hard requirement and that of <br />necessity it must be enforced for the benefit of all. I believe that <br />I have been placed in an area of undue hardship due to the many <br />factors involved with my property. I also desire to compromise with <br />the hope that the resulting structure satisfies the community as <br />well as resolving my dilemma. <br />Upon examination of the code it is evident that the legislative in- <br />tent in regard to sideyard setbacks on a corner lot was to encourage <br />access from the front of the property. I believe this is possible <br />by a small setback variance from the fifteen feet, and that this <br />would not work adversely to the interest of the public health safety <br />and general welfare. <br />RGD/cm <br />Yours truly, <br />4�� 1�d�4 <br />Robert G. Dexter <br />
