] <br />Marquardt November 200U <br />Background <br />Affidavit For Building Permit <br />Gary and Joan Marquardt <br />2617 Casco Point Road <br />Orono MN 55391 <br />612-720-6916 W <br />953-471-0476 H.K ..fj) p <br />•jJ <br />fH <br />r - • <br />rs-ii. <br />My wife and 1 have lived at 2617 Casco Point Road since November 1905. We raised our children <br />here and have been contributing members of our community. <br />We have done little to our house since purchasing it. In the storms of May a year-and-a-half ago, <br />we sustained serious roof damage and serious deck damage from our neighbor's 250-year-oid <br />oak tree falling across our house and deck. We began then planning our remodeling project with <br />these needed repairs as a beginning point. <br />We enjoy our neighborhood, our community and our location and as we approach retirement we <br />have decided to live in this house through our retirement years. In order to be safe and <br />comfortable our project planning addressed the following Issues: <br />1. Garage...The entrance to the garage has been a dangerous feature since we moved in. <br />a. Our garage door is only 18.4 feet from the road making ingress and egress a very <br />dicey maneuver. <br />b. We have had Itterally dozens of brake screeching near misses backing out. <br />c. The garage is very small, barely v;ide enough for two cars and too short for my car. <br />It will not accommodate our two cars, much less a lawnmower and snow blower, <br />thus we always have at least one car parked on the road. <br />2. Entry to our house...The entrance of the house Is on the very East end of the house and is <br />difficult to negotiate vrith grocery bags etc. and poorly placed. With the entrance trapped in <br />a corner of one end of the house the middle of the house has very little natural light. <br />3. The deck...Our deck wras damaged, and it is weakened by the storm damage in 1993. and <br />it is old and rotten and at the least needs replacing. We have In our proposal the removal <br />of the deck to help with our hardcover situation with a proposed on-ground patio near the <br />proposed new entrance. <br />4. Road noise...Our house Is very close to the road with the master bedroom on the very East <br />end adjacent to the existing main entrance. We have an impossible lime sleeping past <br />6:00 in the morning due to road noise. <br />5. Roof... The existing roof was wind damaged and damaged by trees falling. It needs to be <br />replaced and some of the underlying sheathing and underlay needs repair or replacement <br />This repair Is best done when we add the second story. The sight lines and the height of <br />the house Is not an Issue with any of the neighbors.
