I I I Council Meeting Minutes February 23, 1993 Page 7 Council Business. continued Rebelein asked if there has been any neighbor input regarding the application. Mattila said neighbors have been contacted and has received no negative comments relating to the application. Motion by Gunderman, seconded by Williams, to WAIVE THE READING AND ADOPT THE RESOLUTION APPROVING VN-291. 4 Ayes - 0 Nayes, Motion Carried. Mattila presented a setback variance to construct an addition onto an existing single family house. Due to the slope of the property and house location, the applicant would not be able to construct the garage and addition without a sideyard setback variance. The strict enforcement of the setback would cause an undue hardship. The 1.5 ft. sideyard setback variance would allow the proposed addition to be constructed 3.5 ft. from the north property line. The applicant explored other options, but location and design of the house prevented adjustment to the plans, and the fact that lakeshore property is involved discouraged the adjacent owner from selling any of his land. Mattila verified that the neighboring Lot 27 is owned by another property owner; and confirmed that there will be adequate space between the proposed structure and any future structures. Motion by Gunderman, seconded by Rebelein, to WAIVE THE READING AND ADOPT THE RESOLUTION APPROVING VN-292. 4 Ayes - 0 Nayes, Motion Carried. Mattila presented a request to designate an Area of Special Control and approval a SpeCial Use Permit establishing a sign plan for the office building located at 900 long lake Road. An area of Special Control is a defined geographic area, in this case, a portion of a redevelopment area. Once the area is established, a Special Use Permit may be approved allow for either more restrictive or less restrictive _sign standards than provided for by the City's Sign ordinance. The applicant wishes to add 32' to the height of the existing building monument sign: the Bull Micral sign will be modified to conform with the building's color schemes; and the IDS Corporate identity will be located on the west elevation and will not be visible from the residents areas. The proposed sign plan allows for more signage than allowed by the City's Sign Ordinance. However, the proposed IDS logo sign would only be visible to 1-694 traffic.
