6. Adoption of Proclamation for Building Safety Month - May 2013
Mayor Rossbach moved to approve the Proclamation for May of 2013, as Building Safety Month.
PROCLAMATION
Building Safety Month — May, 2013
Whereas, the City of Maplewood’s continuing efforts to address the critical issues of
safety, energy efficiency, and resilience in the built environment that affect our citizens, both in
everyday life and in times of natural disaster, give us confidence that our structures are safe and
sound, and;
Whereas, our confidence is achieved through the devotion of vigilant guardians––building
safety and fire prevention officials, architects, engineers, builders, tradespeople, laborers and
others in the construction industry––who work year-round to ensure the safe construction of
buildings, and;
Whereas, these guardians—dedicated members of the International Code Council—use a
governmental consensus process that brings together local, state and federal officials with
expertise in the built environment to create and implement the highest-quality codes to protect
Americans in the buildings where we live, learn, work, worship, play, and;
Whereas, the International Codes, the most widely adopted building safety, energy and
fire prevention codes in the nation, are used by most U.S. cities, counties and states; these
modern building codes also include safeguards to protect the public from natural disasters such
as hurricanes, snowstorms, tornadoes, wildfires and earthquakes, and;
Whereas, Building Safety Month is sponsored by the International Code Council, to
remind the public about the critical role of our communities’ largely unknown guardians of public
safety––our local code officials––who assure us of safe, efficient and livable buildings, and;
Whereas, “Building Safety Month: Code Officials Keep You Safe” the theme for Building
Safety Month 2013, encourages all Americans to raise awareness of the importance of building
safety; green and resilient building; pool, spa and hot tub safety; backyard safety; and new
technologies in the construction industry. Building Safety Month 2013 encourages appropriate
steps everyone can take to ensure that the places where we live, learn, work, worship and play
are safe and sustainable, and recognizes that countless lives have been saved due to the
implementation of safety codes by local and state agencies, and,
Whereas, each year, in observance of Building Safety Month, Americans are asked to
consider projects to improve building safety and sustainability at home and in the community, and
to acknowledge the essential service provided to all of us by local and state building departments
and federal agencies in protecting lives and property.
NOW, THEREFORE, I, Will Rossbach, Mayor of the City of Maplewood, do hereby
proclaim the month of May 2013 as Building Safety Month. Accordingly, I encourage our citizens
to join with their communities in participation in Building Safety Month activities.

applicant’s request for an exception from the ciity’s pool fence requirement to allow the use of a

RESOLUTION 13-4-889
SHORELAND SETBACK VARIANCE RESOLUTION
WHEREAS, Amanda and Joseph Schneider applied for a variance from the shoreland
protection ordinance.
WHEREAS, this variance applies to property located at 660 Eldridge Avenue. The
property identification number for this property is:
17-29-22-12-0059
WHEREAS, Ordinance Section 44-1242 of the Shoreland Overlay District, requires a
setback of 75 feet in width adjacent to a Class 4 Public Water.
WHEREAS, the applicant is proposing a setback of 29 feet, requiring a variance of 46
feet, from the Class 4 Public Water.
WHEREAS, the history of this variance is as follows:
1. On March 18, 2013, the environmental and natural resources commission
reviewed this variance and recommended approval.
2. On March 19, 2013, the planning commission held a public hearing to review this
proposal. City staff published a notice in the paper and sent notices to the
surrounding property owners as required by law. The planning commission gave
everyone at the hearing a chance to speak and present written statements. The
planning commission also considered the report and recommendation of the city
staff. The planning commission recommended that the city council approve the
variance request.
3. The city council held a public meeting on April 8, 2013, to review this proposal.
The council considered the report and recommendations of the city staff and
planning commission.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the city council approved the above-
described variances based on the following reasons:
A. Strict enforcement of the ordinance would cause the applicant practical difficulties
because complying with the shoreland setback requirement stipulated by the
ordinance would prohibit the building of any permanent structures, substantially
diminishing the potential of this lot.
B. Approval of the requested shoreland setback variance would benefit the adjacent
lake because the site will be planted with additional buffer plantings.
C. Approval would meet the spirit and intent of the ordinance since the proposed
swimming pool would be built in an area that is already maintained as lawn, which
is also allowed by ordinance.
