Minnesota 65323• Municipal Offica <br />‘ OF <br />QROnO On the North Shore of Lake Minnetonka <br />March 30, 1990 <br />Richard Anderson <br />3205 Crystal Bay Road <br />P.O. Box 135 <br />Minnetonka Beach, MN <br />#15o <br />55361 <br />Re; Building Permit/Variance Request <br />Dear Mr. Anderson: <br />Thank you for your attention to starting the process <br />obtaining building permits for the existing deck (after-the-fact; <br />and additional work you propose. <br />Lyle and I visited the site on March 30th and scrutinized <br />your hardcover, enabling me to draw the attached hardcover map. <br />Your property is definitely in excess of the hardcover allowance, <br />and, as we had previously discussed, a hardcover variance for the <br />exist, ng deck and proposed additional work appears necessary. <br />In your letter, you suggest that you will be "reworking" <br />various portions of the property to help the drainage problem. I <br />would note that many of the areas you propose to rework are <br />currently hardcovered by virtue of containing rock or gravel oyer <br />clastic sheet.ing. It *is likely that any Planning Commission <br />recommendation for approval of the existing deck and proposed <br />screen porch and sun room, would be in exchange for some serious <br />removals of existing hardcover to reduce your overall percentage. <br />You mention that erosion is a prime concern because of so <br />much water flowing past your house. This severe runoff is only <br />made worse by all the existing hard surface on the property, <br />which decreases the area where runoff can soak into the ground. <br />A reduction of hard surface coupled with some terracing and site <br />regrading, could alleviate many of the problems. <br />In order for us to proceed with the variance application, <br />you must provide the following; <br />1. Certified property owners list of owners within 150' <br />(you must obtain this list from the Hennepin County <br />Department of Finance, A-603 Govt Center, 348-3271). <br />Bt ILDINC A ZONING - 473-7357 <br />ASSE^ING <br />ADMINKTR^TION JL HNANCE - 473-7J5B <br />lAX -473J»5I0 <br />in III If -473-7359 <br />I
