RESOLUTION NO. 2015 "34
Motion By: Hank
Seconded By: Thomas
June 25, 2015
APPROVAL OF A SITE PLAN, VARIANCE, CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT, AND INTERIM
USE PERMIT FOR THE COMMERCIAL DOOR SYSTEMS BUILDING ADDITION AND
ASSOCIATED PARKING AT 7670 COMMERCE STREET (PID 26-119-23m11-0030) (CITY
FILE NO. 15-010)
WHEREAS, Commercial Door Systems is requesting
conditional use and interim use permit to allow for the
property legally described as follows:
approval of a site plan, variance,
construction of a building addition on
The East 174.24 feet of the West 348.82 feet of Lof 1. Block 3. COUNTRYSIDE PLAZA.
Hennepin County, Minnesota, according to the record plot thereof, as measured at right
angles to and parallel with the West line of said Lot 1.
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission has reviewed the site plan, variance, conditional use and
interim use permit at a duly called public meeting and recommends approval.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT HEREBY RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF
CORCORAN, MINNESOTA, that it should and hereby does approve the request for a site plan,
variance, conditional use and interim use permit approval subject to the following findings and
conditions:
1. Site plan approval is granted to allow for the construction of a building addition as shown
on plans received by the City on April 21, 2015 and May 1, 2015 except as amended by
this resolution.
2. A variance to allow fora 12.6-foot side yard setback where 20 feet is required, is
approved subject to the following findings:
a. There are practical difficulties for the applicant in complying with the Zoning
Ordinance. While the setback requirements for the addition could be met if the wall
face were not aligned with the existing wall it is not practical for the applicant to build
an alternative wall face for the east side of the building which is only setback 13 feet
from the side yard setback. The building was constructed prior to the enactment of
these zoning standards. Meeting the standard would not enhance the appearance of
the building and would not enhance the health safety and welfare of the general
public.
b. The conditions upon which the variance request is based are unique to this parcel
due to the placement of the existing building. Commercial Door Systems also owns
the adjacent parcel and the two properties function in a complementary manner.
c. The proposed building addition will not alter the essential character of the locality.
The proposed project is consistent with other uses in the area and the existing
building.
