Home My WebLink About20070924-3Memo To: Planning Commissioners From: Justin Fortney, Associate Planner Date: September 24, 2007 Subject: John and Nancy Iverson - House Move #2007 -43 — Locate a pre -built (modular) home in place of an existing home at 110 Chestnut Street REQUEST John and Nancy Iverson are proposing to demolish an existing home and garage and move in a pre- built home on property located at 110 Chestnut Street. The Commission is being asked to review this proposal as the Board of Design Control. This is to determine if a building that is moved in to the City of Hastings has aesthetic and functional compatibility with the site. BACKGROUND INFORMATION Comprehensive Plan Classification The 2020 Comprehensive Plan designates the property as U -I, Urban Residential. Zoning Classification The subject property is zoned R -2, Medium Density Residential. Adjacent Zoning and Land Use The following land uses abut the property: Direction Existing Use Zoning Comp Plan North Single Family Res R -2 Med Den Res U -I — Urb Res East Chestnut St Single Family Res R -2 Med Den Res U -I — Urb Res South Alley Single Family Res R -2 Med Den Res U -I — Urb Res West Single Family Res R -2 Med Den Res U -I — Urb Res Existing Condition The existing site consists of a house and garage that are attached by a breezeway. SITE PLAN REVIEW House Condition Included with the Staff report are elevations of the new pre -built home that will be moved to this site. Surrounding Homes The median property value (property value = building value + land value) of the surrounding homes (within 150') is $190,000 while the proposed property value of the new house would be $142,300. The property value of the existing home is $127,700. The area homes were all constructed between 1856 and 1999 with a median year of 1918. The proposed house is new and would have been constructed in 2007. The style of the proposed home is a plain rectangle more similar to the house to be replaced rather than the surrounding homes. The size of the home is similar to the surrounding homes at 1,549 Sq Ft. Zoning Setbacks The proposed placement of the home on the lot will meet all setback requirements of the R -2 zoning district. This includes a provision allowing homes to be as close as 10' from the front property line if existing homes in the area are within the same distance to the front property line. Building Permit Review The Building Official is in the process of reviewing the house plans. The applicant will be required to obtain a building permit before the house may be moved. At that time, a certificate of survey must be submitted, and grading issues will be reviewed at that time by the Engineering Department. ROLE OF THE BOARD OF DESIGN CONTROL: The Planning Commission acting as the `Board of Design Control' has the following responsibilities: 1. Call of Hearing: The Board is required to hold a hearing to consider the application papers. Notification of the hearing date and time must be given to the applicant and other persons deemed appropriate by the Board Secretary. 2. Hearings & Findings: Before or during the hearing, each member may view the premises upon which the structure is located or to be located, and at the hearing the Board shall examine the application papers and hear the applicant. It may also hear any members of a citizens' committee and any other persons who request to be heard. The Board may adjourn from time to time, but within forty -eight (48) hours of the close of the hearing the Board shall, pursuant to a majority vote of all the members of the Board, file written findings of the fact that the exterior design, appearance and functional plan of such structures is or is not at variance or so dissimilar with the exterior design, appearance and functional plans of structures constructed or in the course of construction in the neighborhood of said proposed structures, which are in the same zoning district as the proposed structures, as to cause material depreciation generally to property in said neighborhood. The Board shall further make a recommendation that the application be accordingly granted or denied. The action of the Board will then be presented to the City Council at its next regular meeting. Further action with respect to the granting or refusing of a permit with respect to such application shall be held in abeyance pending order and direction of the Council. Neighborhood Response Letters were sent out on Monday September 17, 2007 to neighboring property owners. One comment was received in support of the house move as of the date of this report. Staff Findings The median property value of the homes within 150' of the site is $190,000 with a range from $133,000 to 250,200. The median year the surrounding homes were built is 1918 with a range from 1852 to 1999. The housing stock in this neighborhood is uniquely diverse. The value of the proposed home (142,300) is lower than the median value of the surrounding homes (190,000), but higher than the value of the existing home (127,700). All of the surrounding homes have more architectural detail than the proposed home, which appears relatively plain. However, the existing home is also plain and has no significant architectural detail. RECOMMENDED ACTION Recommend approval to authorize issuance of a moving permit to move the pre -built home to 110 Chestnut Street, subject to the following conditions: Conditions of Approval: 1. A permit certified by the building official to moveibuild the house, and that the building be congruent to building codes. 2. Applicant must apply for a building permit within one year of approval by the City Council. 3. The new house must meet all Residential District Lot Regulations. 4. A Tree Preservation Plan along with approval of the City Forester or Parks Superintendent will be required prior to approval of the application.
