MN 55323 0066 <br />June 6,2002 <br />Larry Palm <br />Ace Properties, LLC <br />5S00 Anderson Estates Road <br />Maple Plain, MN 55359 <br />NOTICE OF VIOLATION <br />Re: Illegal Dock, Illegal Dock Space Rental at 3445 Ciystal Bay Road <br />Dear Mr. Palm: <br />Hennepin County property records indicate you and/or Ace Properties arc the osMier of the property <br />in Orono located at 3445 Crystal Bay Road. Within the past week the City has received a number <br />of complaints regarding a dock that has appeared, extending from the City-owned lakeshoie across <br />from 3445 Crystal Bay Road. Residents of the neighborhood have expressed great concern about <br />the traffic, parking issues and activity this dock and the boats stored at it are causing. <br />The City assumes, absent further knowledge, that this dock was constructed by you or your agents, <br />or with your ‘permission’. If you have nothing to do with its being there, please inform the City <br />immediately, as it is the City’s intent to have the dock removed. <br />The following violations are noted: <br />1.The boats stored at the dock are not registered to the owner or occupant of the lakeshore <br />property (i.e. the City) nor to the owner or occupant of 3445 Ciystal Bay Road. This boat <br />storage therefore constitutes provision of a boat slip to a person who does not own or occupy <br />the property, which is not legal except at licensed marinas in the B-2 Lakeshore Business <br />District. <br />2.The dock as constructed does not meet minimum Lake Minnetonka Conservation District <br />(LMCD) requirements for setbacks from extended side lot lines and it may in fact encroach <br />outside the allowable dock use area. <br />3.In addition to the above violations, the dock is considered as trespass on City property, and <br />w ould not be legal regardless of the boat storage and dock location violations, because it <br />constitutes an accessory structure without a principal structure, a violation of the Orono <br />Zoning Code. <br />You are hereby ordered to immediately remove the offending boats and dock from City <br />property. If this is not done within 7 days from the date of this letter, the City will immediate^ <br />commence legal action to have them removed. <br />Tdephone (952) 249-4600 • Fax (952) 249-4616 <br />www.ci.oronojnn.as
