From: Daryl Morey, Planning Director
Date: April 19, 2013
Subject: April 22, 2012 City Council Work Session - Superamerica Minor Variance
Representatives for the Superamerica motor fuel facility located at 16161 Cedar Avenue are
requesting approval of a minor variance for a reduced setback from the permanent trail,
drainage and utility easement obtained by Dakota County as part of the Cedar Avenue BRT
project. The improvements included in this minor variance request are:
• Freestanding (monument) sign
• Parking lot drive aisle
• Underground fuel tanks
• Fuel tank vent pipes and protective wall
• Light and flag poles
Chapter 11 -6 -7 of the Zoning Ordinance outlines the procedure for processing minor variance
requests. A minor variance provides an expeditious method of processing variance requests
that does not require a public hearing or recommendation from the Planning Commission.
The City Council has the option to hold a public hearing if deemed necessary.
In 2011, the City Council approved minor variances for Ole Piper Inn and South Twin Cities
Church of Christ for a reduced setback for their freestanding signs due to the public action
created by the Cedar Avenue BRT project. A public hearing was not required for either of
these variance requests, which were approved by the City Council on the consent agenda.
The subject property is involved in a condemnation commissioners hearing and the City's
granting of the minor variance could have an impact on this case. As such, there is time
sensitivity with this variance application and the Superamerica representatives are requesting
feedback from the City Council as to whether or not a public hearing will be required. Staff
does not feel that a public hearing is necessary in this case in that the above mentioned
improvements were in place prior to Dakota County obtaining the additional easement area.
