LA19-000105 JOHN KRAEMER,855 OLD CRYSTAL BAY ROAD SOUTH, <br /> VARIANCES, 7:17 P.M.-7:28 P.M. <br /> Anthon Ellis,o/b/Charlie&Co.,was present. <br /> Staff presented a summary of packet information. <br /> McCutcheon asked if the previous sauna had a bathroom. <br /> Oakden stated she did not believe so. <br /> McCutcheon asked if there would be a sewer line to the building. <br /> Oakden said there would be a service line from the home,which the homeowner is allowed to do. <br /> McCutcheon said that does not make sense to him. He understands it's an accessory building but it is full- <br /> fledged plumbing and electric,too. <br /> Oakden agreed there would be electricity also. <br /> McCutcheon asked how far it exceeds the setback. <br /> Oakden said it was 53 feet from the lake. <br /> McCutcheon noted, as an accessory structure, it is not too much different than what it is today. <br /> Oakden said his statement was true. <br /> Gettman asked Oakden to restate her comment regarding the covenant. <br /> Oakden said City Code allows plumbing in an accessory building if it involves a toilet. You can have a <br /> sink with a plumbing permit. If it involves a toilet,a covenant needs to be recorded about the use of the <br /> building,which would be required with the building permit. <br /> Mr.Anthon Ellis, Project Architect, Charlie&Co.,representing the applicant, indicated he was available <br /> to answer any questions. <br /> McCutcheon asked if the existing structure had any footings. <br /> Mr. Ellis said they do not think so.They believe the floor is 2x4 joists resting on a compacted gravel bed. <br /> McCutcheon asked Staff if there was proof that the building was at that location 5-10 years ago. <br /> Oakden stated that there was. <br /> Page 9 of 14 <br />
