ZONING BOARD OF APPEALS

MEETING MINUTES

90 Kerby Road August 7, 2017 7:00 pm

A meeting of the Zoning Board of Appeals for the City of Grosse Pointe Farms was called to order at 7:53 p.m. on Monday, August 7, 2017, by Chairman James Farquhar, at 90 Kerby Road, Grosse Pointe Farms, Michigan.

Present: Chairman James Farquhar, Members, John J. Gillooly, Therese Joseph, Louis Theros, Joe Ricci, Peter Waldmeir, and Mayor Pro Tem Lev Wood.

Absent: None.

Also Present: Messrs; Shane L. Reeside, City Manager; Derrick Kozicki, City Clerk/Assistant City Manager; Terry Brennan, Director of Public Services; Daniel Jensen, Director of Public Safety; Brian Keesey, City Planner; Chris Cornwall, City Attorney; William Burgess, City Attorney; and Mlle. Debbie Peck, Controller/Treasurer

The Board considered approval of the Minutes of the Meeting held July 10, 2017.

Chairman Farquhar moved to approve the Minutes of the Regular Meeting held July 10, 2017. Motion carried.

The Board considered a request for a variance for a proposed rear yard detached garage at 29 Beverly Road.

The following Exhibits were provided to the Zoning Board of Appeals: A) Memo from Terry Brennan, Public Service Director entitled, “Addition and Alteration, 29 Beverly Road;” B) Letter from John Jackson, City Planner entitled, “29 Beverly: Variance to height of an accessory structure;” and C) Site Plan Application Package; D) Letter from Erik Hagelthorn, Secretary of the Grosse Pointe Farms’ Historic District Commission.

Mr. RC Pascke, property owner gave a brief presentation of the proposal.

Chairman Farquhar stated he was concerned that the garage could become a rental.

Waldmeir asked the applicant if he would agree not to rent the garage.

The applicant stated it would not be rented and the second floor would not have plumbing.

Gillooly indicated he has reviewed the plans and is in favor of granting the variance.

Chairman Farquhar opened public comment at 8:03pm.

Shirley Nagle, 465 Belanger Road stated she wants to make sure the improvements would match the architecture of the neighborhood.

7A

Waldmeir asked if these concerns have been considered.

Public Services Director, Terry Brennan stated that the Historic District Commission has approved the plans.

Wood motioned, that the appeal of Mr. Richard Paschke of 29 Beverly Road be granted thereby authorizing issuance of a building permit to demolish an existing one-car garage and construct a new two and a half car detached garage in accordance with the submitted Robert Wood and Associates plans dated May 1, 2017. Additional information has been provided to the Board in a report from McKenna Associates dated July 26, 2017 and a copy of an approval letter from Mr. Erik Hagelthron, Secretary of the Grosse Pointe Farms Historic District Commission, dated July 14, 2017.

The Board hereby grants two variances: one, a variance to approve a garage with a storage loft with a proposed height of 20 feet, six inches and, two a variance to approve the construction of the new garage in the rear yar which abuts a street with the following conditions: 1) no plumbing in the second story; and 2) no renting of the building.

Such variances are granted on the basis that:

1. Strict application of the Zoning Ordinance would result in a practical difficulty for the userof the property due to the fact that:

a. The new garage cannot reasonably be located 40 feet away from Fisher Road as perthe Ordinance; and 2) lowering the roof pitch to meet the Ordinance would conflictwith and defeat the purpose of conforming with the Historic District requirements.

2. The variances are in harmony with and serve the intent and purpose of the Ordinancebecause:

a. The variance will not result in increased population density.b. The variance will not adversely affect government services or the character of the

district. In fact, the Historic District Commission recently approved the design of theproposed garage finding that it is in keeping with the intended character of thestructures on the road.

c. The proposed project is in harmony with the predominant type of building in thedistrict. While the pitch of the roof could be reduced, the new garage is designed tobe in harmony with the design of the primary residence and to reduce the pitchwould not be harmonious.

3. The variances will result in substantial justice being done because the garage is intended as areplacement of the existing garage in the rear yard and we find the location to beharmonious and in character with other detached garage structures on this block in terms ofplacement.

4. The proposed variances will not substantially interfere with or injure the rights of personswhose property is affected by the proposed variance and there have been no letters ofobjection received from neighboring property owners

The Board hereby grants the foregoing variances without prejudice or precedence in any future similar appeal. YES: Farquhar, Wood, Gillooly, Joseph, Theros, Ricci and Waldmeir. No: None. Motion carried.

Chairman Farquhar adjourned the Zoning Board of Appeals at 8:10 p.m.

MEMORANDUM

Date: 16 October 2017

To: Derrick Kozicki, City Clerk/Assistant City Manager

From: Terry Brennan

Subject: Second Floor Addition, Mud Room and Porch Enclosure – 360 McMillan. ______________________________________________________________________________

Mr. Andrew Bayster of 360 McMillan, has submitted plans and an application for a second floor addition, mud room addition and existing covered porch enclosure for the existing home at 360 McMillan Rd., which is located in the R-1 one-family dwelling district.

The proposed construction consists of a second floor addition over the existing covered porch, and expansion of the first floor to include a mud room and the enclosure of the existing covered porch area. This existing home has a rear yard setback of seventeen (17’) feet (minimum thirty (30’) feet required), (which is not in accordance with Section 1300, Schedule of Regulations, of the Zoning Ordinance). Further, the proposed second floor addition will have a twenty-one (21’) foot rear yard setback and the “mud-room” addition will have a rear yard setback of twenty-five (25’) feet respectively, (minimum thirty (30”) feet required), (both of which are not in accordance with Section 1300, Schedule of regulations, of the Zoning Ordinance).

Accordingly, per Section 1502.10 Change of Nonconforming Structure, an existing non-conforming structure may not be structurally altered or extended without the approval of the Board of Zoning Appeals.

In order to proceed and issue a Building Permit, the following variances must be granted by the Board of Zoning Appeals:

1. Approve the second floor addition, mud room addition, and enclosure of existingcovered porch on an existing non-conforming structure.

2. Approve the second floor addition with a 21’ rear yard setback3. Approve the mud-room addition with a 25’ rear yard setback.

Please place the attached request on the next available City Council agenda for review and consideration.

Mr. Shane Reeside City Manager City of Grosse Pointe Farms 17147 Maumee Grosse Pointe, MI 48230

Attention: Board of Zoning Appeals Subject: 360 McMillan: Variance to permit the expansion of a nonconforming structure Zoning: R-1 One-Family Residential District Applicant: Mr. Andy Bayster, Owner

Dear Mr. Reeside,

We have reviewed plans submitted by Mr. Bayster, the owner of 360 McMillan Road, to add a first-floor mudroom and a second-story bathroom addition to the existing home. Currently, the house (including an attached porch structure) encroaches into the required 30’ rear yard by approximately 13 feet. Section 1502.10 of the Grosse Pointe Farms Zoning Ordinance provides standards which allow the alteration or expansion of a nonconforming structure, but the existing home does not achieve these standards. Therefore, the request put forth is to permit the alteration of a nonconforming structure, requiring a variance to the standards of Section 1502.10 of the Zoning Ordinance.

Additionally, a variance is required for the proposed first- and second-story additions, which will encroach into the rear yard, although not further horizontally than the existing encroachment.

Mr. Bayster has submitted a variance application for the proposed improvements.

Existing Conditions The subject site is located on McMillan Rd, just southeast of the intersection of Williams Ave., Moran Rd., and McMillan Rd. Due to the unique angles at which these roads intersect, several properties near the crossroads have angled rear yards which restrict the developable area based on the required yard setbacks. The subject house and the home directly adjacent to the northeast were both placed in closer proximity to the rear lot line than is permitted by the current Zoning Ordinance.

The subject home is compliant with the front and side yard setbacks. The porch at the northern corner of the house is considered part of the primary structure and is approximately 17 feet from the rear lot line, an encroachment of 13 feet. There is a bay window protruding from the rear of the home, which complies with the rear yard setback requirement.

The table below describes the existing conditions, and the effect of the proposed expansion on the conformity of the primary structure.

City of Grosse Pointe Farms Board of Zoning Appeals: 360 McMillan Variance Review October 27, 2017 | Page 2

VARIANCE REQUEST The applicant is seeking the following variances, pursuant to the Zoning Ordinance:

Section 1502.10: Change of Nonconforming Structure. (a) Use is permitted in District. Complies. (b) Any accessory building conforms to requirements. Not applicable (c) Total area does not exceed maximum percentage of lot coverage in district. Complies. (d) Existing nonconforming building does not encroach more than 20% into required rear yard. The

existing nonconforming structure encroaches into the rear yard by 43.3% (13’ out of the required 30’). For the existing structure to meet this requirement, it should only encroach into the rear yard by six (6) feet. Since the structure cannot meet this standard, a variance is required to expand the structure in any direction, even if the expansion conforms to the district requirements.

Section 1300: Rear yard setback in R-1 District. The rear yard setback in the R-1 District is 30’; the proposed second-story addition will encroach on the required rear yard by approximately nine (9) feet at the closest corner, and the first-floor mudroom will encroach by approximately five (5) feet at its closest corner. In both cases, the new additions will not expand the existing nonconformity horizontally; the existing porch remains the largest encroachment.

VARIANCE COMMENTS Per Section 1702 of the Zoning Ordinance, the BZA must find that “practical difficulty” has been demonstrated and make findings regarding several factors prior to acting on a proposed variance. Additional information brought forward by the Board, the applicant, and/or during the public hearing should be incorporated into the record prior to the Board making any determination.

The Ordinance outlines the following criteria for consideration in determining a variance. Our comments follow:

1. The variance must be in harmony with and serve the intent and purpose of the Ordinance, consideringthe following:

a. The extent of the variance in relation to the requirement. The existing structure encroaches bynearly 47%, more than double the permitted encroachment to expand the nonconformingstructure. The proposed addition, however, will not expand the maximum encroachmenthorizontally (toward the property that shares the rear lot line). The second-story addition willencroach the rear setback by approximately 30% at the nearest corner, and approximately17% at the other near corner.

STANDARD Requirement Existing Conditions

Proposed Expansion

Compliance

Area 5,000 sq.ft. 6,359 sq.ft. Yes – No change Width 50’ min. 75’ Yes – No change Front

Setback 25’ or Avg. Approx. 25’ Yes – No change

Side Setback 4’/14’ 17’/37’ Yes – No change Rear

Setback 30’ 17’ No – No further

encroachment Coverage 35% max. Approx. 23% Approx. 24% Yes

Height 30’ and 2.5 stories

2 stories No overall change; height changes in rear setback

No – Requires variance


b. The effect, if the varianceis allowed, of theincreased populationdensity produced onavailable governmentalfacilities and on thecharacter of the district.The variances will notproduce an increasedpopulation density, nor willit require additionalgovernment resources.

c. Whether the proposedbuilding is in harmony withthe predominant type ofbuilding in the district interms of size, character,location, and intended use. The applicant’s narrative states the adjacent homes have rear-yard additions to their homes, many of which are two (2) stories. We find this statementaccurate, although the homes immediately adjacent have single-story additions. The height ofthe structure, after the proposed addition, will be no higher than is customary in theneighborhood. Lot coverage will not change substantially with the addition, and will remainwell below the allowable threshold in the R-1 District due to the property’s large side yardsetbacks.

The use of the structure will remain single-family in nature. The existing porch will beenclosed as a result of the proposed improvements – an allowable change without a variance.We find the proposed alterations in keeping with the residential character enjoyed by nearbyproperties along McMillan and Moran.

2. The variance must result in substantial justice being done, considering the public benefits intended tobe secured by this Ordinance, the hardships or difficulties suffered if a variance is not granted, andwhether the hardship or difficulty can be obviated by some method other than a variance. Theproperty is functional in its current form as a single-family dwelling. However, as noted above, thedifficulties caused by the angled rear property line limit the potential to expand the structure within thedesignated building envelope, even though the footprint of the structure does not cause concern interms of overall lot coverage.

The proposed locations for the additions make sense in terms of utilizing existing structure footprint,and should result in a structure that is not substantially more impactful to adjacent neighbors. Thesecond story, tiered away from the rear property line, should help alleviate the perception of asignificant second-story encroachment at the rear property line.

3. The variance will not substantially interfere with or injure the rights of persons whose property isaffected by the proposed variance. The proposed addition will not impact the properties adjacent tothe northwest or southeast on McMillan, as there is significant distance between the addition and theadjacent property lines.

The property to the rear of the subject property is most susceptible to negative impacts as a result ofthe requested variances. We do not anticipate any negative impact from the first-floor mudroomaddition since the added encroachment will be shielded from the neighbor by the porch footprint. The


second-story addition has been designed to minimize the expansion of the structure in the required setback, and will be 20 feet from the rear property line, an encroachment of ten (10) feet. We find the 8-foot deep second story addition to be the minimum necessary to provide an additional livable interior space.

RECOMMENDATION Based on the analysis in this review, we find it appropriate to consider granting a variance to expand a nonconforming structure with a larger rear-yard encroachment than is allowed by ordinance. The structure is appropriately placed in all regards besides the rear setback, there is more than adequate area available on the property in terms of maximum lot coverage, and the irregular shape of the specific property contributes to the large encroachment.

Further, we find the proposed building additions appropriate in terms of accommodating amenities similar to the surrounding homes in the district. The location and character of the additions are appropriately placed to minimize the expansion of the nonconformities. Additionally, we do not believe the plan will introduce significant detrimental impacts to the adjacent property owners.

The proposed plans support the spirit of the Ordinance for the R-1 Single-Family Residential District. Subject to the results of the public hearing, we recommend the ZBA grant the requested variances to Sections 1502.10(d) and 1300 of the Grosse Pointe Farms Zoning Ordinance.

If you have further questions, please do not hesitate to contact us.

Respectfully submitted,

McKENNA ASSOCIATES

Judgment Amount and paying the costs of issuing such bonds, and the City Council has

determined that it is in the best interest of the City to issue bonds under Section 6097 of Act 236

for such purpose.

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED:

1. AUTHORIZATION OF BONDS -- PURPOSE. Bonds of the City, aggregating

the principal sum of not to exceed Four Million One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($4,100,000)

(the “Bonds”) shall be issued and sold pursuant to the provisions of Section 6097 of Act 236, and

other applicable statutory provisions, for the purpose of raising money to pay the Judgment

Amount and paying the costs of issuing the Bonds. The City Manager or the City

Controller/Treasurer shall determine the principal amount of the Bonds at the time of sale.

2. BOND DETAILS. The Bonds shall be designated “General Obligation Unlimited

Tax Bonds, Series 2017;” shall be dated as of the date of delivery thereof; shall be numbered

from 1 upwards; shall be fully registered; shall be in the denomination of $5,000 each or any

3

integral multiple thereof not exceeding the aggregate principal amount for each maturity at the

option of the purchaser thereof; shall bear interest at a rate or rates not exceeding 6.00% per

annum to be determined by the City Manager or the City Controller/Treasurer at the time of sale

payable on such dates as shall be determined by the City Manager or the City

Controller/Treasurer at the time of sale; and shall mature in such principal amounts and on such

dates and in such years as shall be determined by the City Manager or the City

Controller/Treasurer at the time of sale.

3. PAYMENT OF PRINCIPAL AND INTEREST. The principal of and interest on

the Bonds shall be payable in lawful money of the United States. Principal shall be payable upon

presentation and surrender of the Bonds to the bond registrar and paying agent as they severally

mature. Interest shall be paid to the registered owner of each Bond as shown on the registration

books at the close of business on the fifteenth day of the calendar month preceding the month in

which the interest payment is due. Interest shall be paid when due by check or draft drawn upon

and mailed by the bond registrar and paying agent to the registered owner at the registered

address.

4. PRIOR REDEMPTION. The Bonds shall be subject to redemption prior to

maturity, if so determined by the City Manager or the City Controller/Treasurer at the time of sale,

upon such terms and conditions as may be determined by the City Manager or the City

5. BOOK-ENTRY SYSTEM. Initially, one fully-registered bond for each maturity

of the Bonds, in the aggregate amount of such maturity, shall be issued in the name of Cede &

Co., as nominee of The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) for the benefit of other parties (the

“Participants”) in the book-entry-only transfer system of DTC. In the event the City determines

that it is in the best interest of the City not to continue the book-entry system of transfer or that

the interests of the holders of the Bonds might be adversely affected if the book-entry system of

transfer is continued, the City may notify DTC and the bond registrar and paying agent,

whereupon DTC will notify the Participants of the availability through DTC of bond certificates.

4

In such event, the bond registrar and paying agent shall deliver, transfer and exchange bond

certificates as requested by DTC and any Participant or “beneficial owner” in appropriate

amounts in accordance with this Bond Resolution. DTC may determine to discontinue providing

its services with respect to the Bonds at any time by giving notice to the City and the bond

registrar and paying agent and discharging its responsibilities with respect thereto under

applicable law or the City may determine that DTC is incapable of discharging its duties and

may so advise DTC. In either such event, the City shall use reasonable efforts to locate another

securities depository. Under such circumstances (if there is no successor securities depository),

the City and the bond registrar and paying agent shall be obligated to deliver bond certificates in

accordance with the procedures established by this Bond Resolution. In the event bond

certificates are issued, the provisions of this Bond Resolution shall apply to, among other things,

the transfer and exchange of such certificates and the method of payment of principal of and

interest on such certificates. Whenever DTC requests the City and the bond registrar and paying

agent to do so, the City and the bond registrar and paying agent shall cooperate with DTC in

taking appropriate action after reasonable notice to make available one or more separate

certificates evidencing the Bonds to any Participant having Bonds certificated to its DTC account

any bond is registered in the name of Cede & Co., as nominee of DTC, all payments with respect

to the principal of, interest on and redemption premium, if any, on the Bonds and all notices with

respect to the Bonds shall be made and given, respectively, to DTC as provided in the Blanket

Issuer Letter of Representations previously entered into by the City and DTC, and the City

Manager is authorized to execute such additional documents with DTC as deemed to be

appropriate in order to accomplish the issuance of the Bonds in accordance with law and this

Bond Resolution.

such registered owner, or upon his order, in accordance with the provisions of Section 3 of this

Bond Resolution shall be valid and effectual to satisfy and discharge the liability upon such

paying agent shall be affected by any notice to the contrary. The City agrees to indemnify and

save the bond registrar and paying agent harmless from and against any and all loss, cost, charge,

expense, judgment or liability incurred by it, acting in good faith and without negligence

hereunder, in so treating such registered owner.

For every exchange or transfer of Bonds, the City or the bond registrar and paying agent

may make a charge sufficient to reimburse it for any tax, fee or other governmental charge

required to be paid with respect to such exchange or transfer, which sum or sums shall be paid by

the person requesting such exchange or transfer as a condition precedent to the exercise of the

apparently destroyed or wrongfully taken and of security or indemnity which complies with

applicable law and is satisfactory to the City Clerk, the City Clerk may authorize the bond

registrar and paying agent to deliver a new executed Bond to replace the Bond lost, apparently

destroyed or wrongfully taken in compliance with applicable law. In the event an outstanding

matured Bond is lost, apparently destroyed or wrongfully taken, the City Clerk may authorize the

bond registrar and paying agent to pay the Bond without presentation upon the receipt of the

same documentation required for the delivery of a replacement Bond. The bond registrar and

paying agent, for each new Bond delivered or paid without presentation as provided above, shall

Quarterly Financial Report

For the Three Months Ended September 30, 2017

• Quarter End Highlights

• Statement of Revenue and Expenditures - Budget and Actual

• Investment Listing -Type, Location, Rate, and Maturity Date

GENERAL FUND

REVENUE

QUARTER END HIGHLIGHTS

SEPTEMBER 30, 2017

• Revenue for the 1st quarter is up 0.42% as a percentage of budget when compared to last year.

• Building permit revenue totaled $85,157 vs. $30,372 for the same period last year. The increase in revenue to date is due to a number of large construction projects permitted during this quarter. It should be noted that due to the anticipated construction activity, the 2017-18 budget for this line item was increased $10,000. Currently, we are on pace to meet or exceed this budget with over 65% collected in this first quarter alone.

• Charges for services were down 1.27% when compared to last year. This budget category is only at 10.11% of the budget due to the timing of receivables, including boat mooring fees and the Wayne County sewage lease which are not billed until later in the fiscal year. This is consistent with prior years and we expect this category to meet budgeted levels.

• State Shared Revenue payments for this fiscal year will be received beginning November 1st. At this time, we expect those payments to be in line with our budgeted revenue.

EXPENDITURES

• Expenditures for the l 5t quarter are up 1.18% as a percentage of budget when compared to last year.

• Transfers to the Debt Service fund for bond principal and interest payments, totaling $484,128, w ere made in the first quarter this year. This transfer was done during the second quarter last year, due to the timing of the bond payment. This transfer represents 3.4% of the total budget. Without that transfer, we would be at 19% of budget, below prior year.

• Pier park budget expenditures reflect seasonal expenditures in line with last year's expenditures.

• Public works function collectively is at 17% of budget.

PRELIMINARY JUNE 30, 2016 RESULTS

• Preliminary financial results for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2017, show General Fund revenues coming in over expenditures by approximately $69,600. The total fund balance is estimated at $5,209,176, which compares to $5,139,558 last year. The Unassigned fund balance is estimated at$ 3.99 million or 28% of the Genera l Fund Budget.

COMMENTS

• Overall the General fund revenues and expenditures to date appear in line with the budget, when taking into consideration timing differences and seasonal expenditures and when compared to the same period last year.

WATER/SEWER FUND

• Utility bill revenue is down for the first quarter compared to last year by approximately $480,000. The first quarter consumption in 2016-2017 was considerably higher than the previous three years. This quarter's consumption reflects usage levels closer to historical averages. We have budgeted for the sale of 61.5 million cubic feet of water in the 2017-2018 fiscal year. During the first quarter, 18.6 million cubic feet was billed. We will continue to closely monitor our actual consumption to our budget estimate.
