<br />e <br /> <br />e <br /> <br />THE CITY OF LA PORTE <br /> <br />INTER-OFFICE MEMORANDUM <br />FEBRUARY 17, 1988 <br /> <br />TO: <br />THRU: <br />FROM: <br />SUBJECT: <br /> <br /> <br />City Manager <br /> <br />John <br /> <br />Asst. City Manager <br /> <br />Joel recht, Director of Community Development ~ <br />Bruce Mikulin's Request for a Conditional Use Permit <br /> <br />Last December, Mr. Mikul in came to the Code Enforcement office to <br />discuss the possibility of placing a garage apartment in his back yard <br />for his mother. As the staff rev iewed his request with him they <br />discussed the number of ex ist ing similar uses in the area, access to <br />the property, parking, lot coverage, setbacks, height of buildings and <br />rear yard coverage. They did not discuss the site area per dwelling <br />requirement. Mr. Miku1in was told to discuss the requirements for <br />enter ing his property from the 16 foot alley located in the rear of <br />his lot, with the Public Works Department. <br /> <br />He then returned at a later date and told the Code Enforcement <br />personnel that he needed to build the garage anyway. He asked for a <br />permit for this construction and was given a "foundation only" <br />permit. Mr. Miku1in did complete his foundation and also put up the <br />studs for the walls as well. <br /> <br />The staff has had several meetings with Mr. Mikulin and has explained <br />to him that we don't know how the Planning and Zoning Commission or <br />the City Council would vote on his request. The staff also told Mr. <br />Mikulin that we would be recommending in opposition to his request due <br />to the requ irement of 6,000 square feet per dwell ing un it. H is lot <br />does not meet this requirement, since it is 125' deep x 57' wide and <br />and has only 7125 square feet total. <br /> <br />JHA/nb <br />
