MINUTES OF THE <br /> ORONO PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING <br /> Monday,March 18,2019 <br /> 6:30 o'clock p.m. <br /> Libby noted the City Engineer's comments make it fairly clear that if any excavation needs to be done, it <br /> would require written permission from the Rail Authority. Libby suggested the homeowner do some due <br /> diligence on how that encroachment may impact their title in reselling the property. <br /> Lemke asked if there is a jog in the property line. <br /> Curtis indicated she does not know why it is that way but that there are several jogs in that area that do <br /> not make a lot of sense. <br /> Lemke stated he was wondering whether that was purchased from the Rail Authority at some point. <br /> Julie Lensing,Applicant, stated she appreciates the opportunity to speak about what she would like to do. <br /> Lensing indicated she also was curious about the jog in the property line and she was told that many years <br /> ago the Rail Authority offered the residents the opportunity to purchase some of the land,which is why <br /> that is a funny shape. <br /> Lemke asked if that is still available. <br /> Lensing indicated she does not know that. There are some significant areas of concern with the existing <br /> house and that the hope is the addition will improve the functionality. The lot makes the options very <br /> limiting and in her view this is the best option. <br /> Lensing noted currently her laundry room is in the garage and that she needs to bring laundry baskets <br /> down one whole flight of stairs and then open and close the garage entry door as well as the laundry room <br /> door. This addition would allow the laundry room to be located on the main floor level. In addition,the <br /> master bedroom has a very small closet and the addition would allow a small walk-in closet. Between her <br /> and her fiancé,they have six children, and they would like to put some bunkbeds on the upper floor to <br /> accommodate some of the children when they visit. <br /> Lensing indicated she has worked very closely with the Hennepin County Rail Association and the <br /> building code inspector. With regard to the encroachment,there is a 5' x 5' shed that was there when the <br /> property was purchased. Lensing indicated she is willing to remove that. Further, Jessica from the Rail <br /> Authority noted that it appears there is currently a shed encroachment on HCRRA's property adjacent to <br /> 3339 Crystal Bay Road and that remedying this encroachment would mitigate their concern about the <br /> 0-foot setback clearance. <br /> Lensing noted the building official had listed four bullet points on one of the attachments. The architect <br /> has stated he will change the plans so these four requirements will be met. <br /> Chair Thiesse opened the public hearing at 7:28 p.m. <br /> There were no public comments. <br /> Chair Thiesse closed the public hearing at 7:28 p.m. <br /> Thiesse asked if the basement or foundation level will be two feet shorter and the house itself will <br /> cantilever over. <br /> Page 10 of 13 <br />
