JANONIS, VILLAGE MANAGER DATE: OCTOBER 27,2008 SUBJECT: PZ-25-08 - HEIGHT VARIATION FOR AN ACCESSORY STR (SHED), VARIATION TO STORE A MOTORIZED VEHICLE TRACTOR) IN A SHED 1504 LARCH DRIVE STEVE BOOM - APPLICANT The petitioner, Steve Boom, is seeking approval of a height Variation for an accessory structure (shed) and a Variation to store a motorized vehicle (farm tractor) in a shed for the property at 1504 Larch Drive. The Planning and Zoning Commission conducted a public hearing to review the request on Thursday, October 23,2008, and by a vote of 6-0, recommended denial of a Variation to increase the height from ten feet (10') to twelve feet (12') for an accessory structure (shed) and voted 6-0 recommending approval of a Variation to allow the storage of a motorized vehicle within a shed, contingent on the vehicle being an antique farm tractor. Details of the proceedings and items discussed during the Planning and Zoning Commission hearing are included in the attached minutes. Please forward this memorandum and attachments to the Village Board for their review and consideration at their November 5, 2008 meeting. Staff will be present to answer any questions related to this matter.

PZ-25-08 Hearing Date: October 23, 2008 PROPERTY ADDRESS: 1504 Larch Drive PETITIONER: Steve Boom PUBLICATION DATE: October 8, 2008 PIN NUMBER: 03-24-307 -046-0000 REQUESTS: 1) Variation to Increase the Height for an Accessory Structure (Shed) 2) Variation to store a motorized vehicle in a shed MEMBERS PRESENT: Richard Rogers, Chair Joseph Donnelly Leo Floros Marlys Haaland Ronald Roberts Keith Youngquist ST AFF MEMBERS PRESENT: Brian Simmons, AICP, Deputy Director of Community Development Consuelo Andrade, Development Review Planner INTERESTED PARTY: Jayne Boom Chairman Richard Rogers called the meeting to order at 7:32 p.m. Keith Youngquist made a motion to approve the minutes of the September 25, 2008 meeting and Joseph Donnelly seconded the motion. The minutes were approved 5-0 with Marlys Haaland abstaining. Chairman Rogers introduced Case PZ-25-08, a request for a Variation to increase the height for an accessory structure (shed) and a Variation to store a motorized vehicle in a shed at 1504 Larch Drive, at 7:33 p.m. Consuelo Andrade, Development Review Planner, said the Petitioner was applying for two Variations. The property is zoned R-l Single Family Residential. The subject property is an existing single-family home on a 75 foot by 122 foot lot. The Petitioner was proposing to install a ten foot (10') by twelve foot (12') shed on the southeast comer of the property. The shed would be twelve feet (12') high in order to store the farm tractor. Ms. Andrade showed a picture of the tractor. Ms. Andrade showed the elevations of the shed; the shed would be a barn style with double doors and windows on the side. Ms. Andrade also showed a table of accessory structure requirements. The proposed shed met all Code requirements with the exception of the height. Ms. Andrade stated Village Code says a shed is designed to store household items and equipment necessary to upkeep the primary structure and property that it is located on. Village Code prohibits the storage of motorized vehicles or accessory structures to be used as an office, work, or living space. Ms. Andrade said the Petitioner was proposing to store a farm tractor inside a shed would not comply with the shed definition or with the use restriction regulation of the Code. Ms. Andrade summarized the Village Code Variation Standards. Staff did not feel that the Petitioner's Variation request would satisfy the standard. Richard Rogers, Chair Planning & Zoning Commission Meeting October 23,2008 PZ-22-08 Page 2 Ms. Andrade stated that the farm tractor was presently stored on the property inside the attached garage. She said other options existed such as building an addition or a detached garage which would allow storage for the tractor on the property without the two proposed Variations. Ms. Andrade said Staff recommended denial of the motion listed in the Staff Report. Leo Floros asked where the twelve foot (12') height measures to. Ms. Andrade said from grade to the mid-point of the roof. Brian Simmons, Deputy Director of Community Development, confirmed the overall height of the peak would be fourteen feet (14'). Chairman Rogers asked about the possibility of the Petitioner doing work on the tractor in the shed. He questioned if this would become a work area. Chairman Rogers also wanted to know if this was being considered. Ms. Andrade said that the Petitioner was primarily looking at the height and storage of the motorized vehicle as these two factors did not meet the code's definition. Section 14.306 prohibits the shed from being a work space. Chairman Rogers said three things would then need to be looked at: the height, storage of the motorized vehicle, and working in the shed. Ms. Andrade stated that Chairman Rogers' statement was correct, but for the case, the Petitioner just requested Variations for the height and storage. Chairman Rogers swore in the Petitioner, Jayne Boom, 1504 Larch Drive, Mount Prospect, Illinois. Mrs. Boom said that she and her husband were looking for a dedicated space to store the tractor. She stated that it is currently kept in the garage where it takes up room for the cars. It is an antique and she would like to keep it in one place. Mrs. Boom said if they decided to restore it, it would be a slow process of painting it and getting it to run smoother. Chairman Rogers asked why the Petitioner had a farm tractor. Mrs. Boom stated that it was an heirloom. There was general discussion regarding the door height of the proposed shed at six and a half feet (6.5 '). It was mentioned that this size was smaller than a normal garage door. Chairman Rogers asked why an additional five feet (5') was needed above the door. Mr. Youngquist said in order to create the look of the design, the twelve feet (12') was needed. He said the design was driving the overall height of the structure. Mr. Donnelly stated the loft area in the shed would be a lot lower than a standard garage. Chairman Rogers asked the Petitioner if she was just trying to accomplish the looks of the shed. Mrs. Boom stated that she wanted the shed to look nice. Chairman Rogers said by changing the roof, the Petitioner could get the shed down to ten feet (10') and the Variation would not be needed. Mr. Floros asked if there were any comments from the neighbors on the proposed shed. Richard Rogers, Chair Planning & Zoning Commission Meeting October 23, 2008 PZ-22-08 Page 3 Mrs. Boom said she had talked to both next door neighbors; they were fine with the design. Mr. Youngquist asked ifthere was an existing shed. Mrs. Boom said there was no existing shed or fence. Chairman Rogers noticed the side yards are small and asked the Petitioner if she would be able to maneuver the tractor into the backyard. Mrs. Boom stated there was enough room for the tractor. She said she could not do a detached garage because there would not be enough room for a driveway. There was no one in the audience to address the case so Chairman Rogers brought the discussion back to the board at 7:46 p.m. Mr. Floros said he saw what the Petitioner wants to accomplish, but was uncomfortable with this case possibly creating precedence. Mr. Donnelly stated he was not comfortable with the height of the shed, but was okay with the tractor being stored in a shed. Chairman Rogers said the Petitioner certainly could store the tractor with the ten foot (10') maximum height. There was general discussion regarding storage of motorized vehicles; tractors versus automobiles. Mr. Youngquist said he did not see the height requirement fitting in for this tractor. There was discussion regarding the size of sheds. Chairman Rogers stated the real issue on hand is the height, not the storage of the motorized vehicle. Mr. Floros asked if the Commission could separate the motions. There was discussion regarding motions. Mr. Simmons said with the motion, the Planning and Zoning Commission could stipulate the type of motorized vehicle so no other vehicles could be stored in the future. Mr. Youngquist stated that they would not be setting precedence for motorized vehicles. Chairman Rogers said that they could just approve the particular tractor discussed. Mr. Youngquist made a motion to approve a request of a Variation to increase the height for an accessory structure (shed) from ten feet (10') to twelve feet (12') at 1504 Larch Drive. Joseph Donnelly seconded the motion. UPON ROLL CALL: AYES: None NAYS: Donnelly, Floros, Haaland, Roberts, Youngquist, Rogers Motion was defeated 6-0. Mr. Donnelly made a motion to approve a request of a Variation to store an antique tractor in a shed with the understanding that no other motorized vehicles would be allowed to be stored in the shed. Keith Y ounquist seconded the motion. UPON ROLL CALL: AYES: Donnelly, Floros, Haaland, Roberts, Youngquist, Rogers NAYS: None Motion was approved 6-0. Richard Rogers, Chair Planning & Zoning Commission Meeting October 23, 2008 PZ-22-08 Page 4 After hearing one additional case, Ronald Roberts made a motion to adjourn at 8:04 p.m., seconded by Joseph Donnelly. The motion was approved by a voice vote and the meeting was adjourned. !JfIt Ryan Kast, Community Development Administrative Assistant VILLAGE OF MOUNT PROSPECT COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT DEPARTMENT - Planning Divis!on 50 S.
