Letter View <br /> Response: The location of the neighboring home and the curved shoreline are unique conditions affecting <br /> the subject property. <br /> 0. The granting of the application is necessary for the preservation and enjoyment of a <br /> substantial property right of the applicant. <br /> Response: The variance is necessary to preserve our right to improve the property. The previous home on <br /> the property was over the average lakeshore setback line as well as in breach of the 75-foot setback line <br /> from the lake. The proposed home will now adhere to the 75-foot setback line and it will be situated in the <br /> middle of the property to provide space and privacy from both neighbors on either side allowing for all <br /> parties to enjoy their property. <br /> 11. The granting of the proposed variance will not in any way impair health, safety, comfort, <br /> morals, or in any other respect be contrary to the intent of the Zoning Code. <br /> Response: Granting the requested variance will not adversely impact health, safety, comfort, or morals; nor <br /> will it be contrary to the intent of the Code. <br /> 12. The granting of such variance will not merely serve as a convenience to the applicant but is <br /> necessary to alleviate demonstrable difficulty. <br /> Response: The average lakeshore setback line on this property severely limits the options for improving the <br /> lot and the construction of a new home. If the proposed home were to adhere to all setback lines, the <br /> property would only offer a small triangle of land for building which is not reasonable given the size of the <br /> lot. The granting of the requested variance is necessary to alleviate a practical difficulty resulting from the <br /> location of the NW neighbor's home. <br /> • <br /> • <br /> file:///ci.orono.mn.us/...oma%20Linda%20Avenue)%20VAR/Submittals/Practical%20Difficulties%20Documentation%20Form%20(10).htm[9/16/2021 3:11:52 PM] <br />
