Chapter 30--Building Code: Chapter IV Design, Section 30.15 General Requirements. Said regulation requires the ceiling height of all habitable rooms to have a minimum ceiling height of seven (7) feet six (6) inches.

Carlos Trejo read a denial letter from the Building Inspection Department dated May 2, 1997, outlining Building Code, Section 30.15 (3)(a). The Board members questioned "basement" and "habitable". Also, the City will be adopting the Southeast Wisconsin Uniform Building Code sometime in the near future which allows for all basements built after 1980 to have a 7' ceiling height. Henry Schneiker made a motion to amend Appeal #09-97 to appealing an Administrative Ruling, not a building code appeal. Mr. Brandt seconded. Upon roll call vote, motion to amend carried. Mr. Brandt swore in Collette Klenz. Mrs. Klenz stated she obtained a building permit in February, 1997, to build a bedroom, bathrooming and couch area.

A letter was read from the Building Inspection Department Director outlining the denial to construct a 1008 square foot non-commercial accessory structure with a dirt floor and without a firewall. Mike Brandt swore in William and Jeannie Deering. The Board members question how many acres are required to allow for a agricultural building. 35 acres are required to build an ag building. On RCE zoning one horse is allowed for every 2.75 acres. The Board members questioned the reasoning behind allowing RCE zoning to have horses, but not allowing an ag type building. They also questioned the ability to have a Conditional Use applied to these properties with horse. Mrs. Deering stated neighboring communities allow for accessory buildings without concrete floors for livestock. Mrs. Deering read a letter from a horse trainer stating concrete floors are detrimental to the horses. The Board members directed Mr. Trejo to obtain ordinance from neighboring communities and forward to the Council. They also suggested changing the ordinance for Accessory Buildings in a RCE zoning to allow for housing of livestock. Appeal # 10-97Ronald P. and Joanne L. Knox, W180 S6807 Muskego Drive.

REQUESTING: Under the direction of Section 3.08 (1) Appeal Provisions, Petitioner seeks two (2) variances: 1. Chapter 30--Building Code: Said regulation restricts the interior area of a wood framed accessory structure to 720 square feet. Petitioner seeks a 288 square foot variance to permit a 1008 square foot accessory structure without a dividing firewall. 2.

Mr. Brandt swore in Jeannine Deering. Mr. Trejo stated that under the advice from the City's attorneys, staff would be recommending that this appeal (Appeal #8-97), and Appeals #9-97 and Appeal #11-97 request no. 2, be deferred. All three of these items deal with issues in regards to the City's building code, and under the interpretation of the City's attorneys, items dealing with building code issues are not appealable, and the Board is not allowed to vary building codes, as they have no authority under the state statutes. The Board of Appeals may only hear appeals regarding an inspector's interpretation of a building code. Counsel recommends deferral of Appeals #8-97, 9-97, and 11-97 request no. 2, due to the fact they all are requesting a variance from building codes and not from an administrative interpretation or a zoning code, until further interpretation is available. Mr. Trejo stated he will make every effort to obtain an interpretation and schedule a special meeting prior to the regular May meeting. Ms. Schuster made a motion to defer Appeals #8-97 and #9-97 and Appeal #11-97, request no. 2. Mr. Schneiker seconded. After discussion regarding the Board of Appeals inability to hear these appeals, a role call vote was called. The motion to defer passed 3-2, with Chairman O'Neil and Mr. Herda voting nay. Appeal # 09-97, Curt and Collette Klenz, W166 S8282 Kurtze Lane REQUESTING: Under the direction of Section 3.08 (1) Appeal Provisions, Petitioner seeks one (1) variance: 1. Chapter 30--Building Code: Chapter IV Design, Section 30.15 General Requirements. Said regulation requires the ceiling height of all habitable rooms to have a minimum ceiling height of seven (7) feet six (6) inches.

Appeal # 10-97, Ronald P. and Joanne L. Knox, W180 S6807 Muskego Drive REQUESTING: Under the direction of Section 3.08 (1) Appeal Provisions, Petitioner seeks two (2) variance: 1. Chapter 17--ZoningOrdinance: Section 5.02 (3) Building Location: Offsets. Said regulation requires a minimum five (5) foot offset from the northern property line.

Said regulation limits the height of an accessory structure to fifteen (15) feet from grade at entry to peak of roof. Petitioner seeks a 4.3 foot variance to build a gazebo 19.3 feet high. Zoned: RS-3/OLS, Residential Suburban District with a Lake Shore Overlay. Mr. Jim Ross stepped down on this appeal. Mr. Brandt administered an oath to Mr. Knox. Mr. Trejo described the zoning of the lot. Mr. Knox stated he plans of building a gazebo on top of an extension to an existing deck as this is the only location available. If it were built on the ground, it would be located in the middle of the of the existing deck stairs. Also there is a tree that the existing deck is built around, this cannot be moved, and also the view would be lost. Mr. Trejo explained the grade is measured from the grade of entry. In this case, Mr. Knox has place the gazebo on top of a raised deck. In order to apply the ordinance fairly to all property owners, the grade is measured from ground grade, not at the point of entry. Mr. Knox stated this structure would still be lower than the highest point of the house and lower than the neighbor's house. Mr. Knox has a letter from the neighbor granting his approval. Mr. Trejo questioned the hardship applicable to both the offset and height. Mr. Knox stated the deck would need to be reconfigured and the loss of the view. Appeal # 11-97, Steven B. Brauch, S69 W16706 Martin Drive REQUESTING: Under the direction of Section 3.08 (1) Appeal Provisions, Petitioner seeks two (2) variances: 1.

Petitioner seeks a 112 square foot variance to permit a 832 square foot accessory structure without a dividing firewall. Zoned: RS-1, Suburban Residence District. Mr. Jim Ross stepped down on this appeal. Chairman O'Neil stated the Board would only hear the first half of this appeal, the portion regarding the zoning for an accessory structure. Mr. Brandt swore in Steven Brauch, Paul Brauch and Edith Hofrichter. Mr. Trejo stated the residence on this property has a foot print of 480 square feet not the 1600 square feet allowed by this zoning area. Mr. Brauch is requesting a 26' by 32' garage to park his handicap accessible van and place storage in. Mr. Brauch does not wish to attach the garage to his home as that would restrict future expansion of his residence. Mr. Brauch stated he plans in the future also to divide his lot which further limits the expansion of his residence. Mrs. Hofrichter is concerned that a garage of this size would affect the sale of her home this summer. On the advice of her attorney, she is objecting to the oversize structure being built. Mr. O'Neil stated there would be 200 feet from the property line to her residence. DELIBERATIONS Mr. Trejo stated, that prior to the deliberations of today's appeals, Attorney Eric Larson, from Arnez, Molter, Macy & Riffle, the City's contracted attorneys, would speak in regards hardship and variance standards. Mr. Brandt made a motion to allow Attorney Larson to speak regarding variance standards, Mr. Ross seconded. Upon roll call vote, the motion carried 5-1, Mr. Herda voting nay. Attorney Larson discussed the three statutory standards required to issue a variance: 1. Unnecessary Hardship, where the absence of a variance, an owner can make no feasible use of a property. 2. Unique property Limitation, unique physical characteristics of the property, not the desires of or conditions personal to the applicant, must prevent the applicant from developing in compliance with the zoning ordinance. 3. Protection of the Public Interest, granting of a variance must not harm the public interest. Attorney Larson went further to explain financial limitations and self-imposed hardships are not to be taken into consideration. APPEAL #7-94 Mr. Brandt made a motion to deny Appeal #7-97, due to the lack of hardship. Ms. Schuster seconded. Roll call vote was taken after a short discuss. Motion carried 3-2, with Brandt and Herda voting nay, and Mr. Ross's vote not counting as he is second alternate.
