This is because these uses <br />are more intensive than a seasonal cabin and need special considerations due to their <br />island location. If your property has been actively used for one or both of the Following <br />purposes, you are entitled to apply for a conditional use permit (and variance if <br />necessary) to continue that use: <br />SECTION 34.363(a): TO AUTHORIZE PRINCIPAL DWELLING USE: meaning any home or cabin <br />that is used or occupied for 181 days or more in any one year; or any dwelling <br />regardless of the duration of use if you wish to claim a Minnesota "principal <br />residence" homestead tax credit. If the property is not homestead, and if your <br />total annual usage is less than 180 days (6 months), then your use is allowed by the <br />ordinance and you oto not have to apply for this special permit. Note that even if <br />you use the property a few days every month. it is the total number of days that <br />count, not how these days might be spread throughout the year. <br />SECTION 34.363(b): TO AUTHORIZE A PRIVATE GUEST CABIN in addition to and on the <br />same Record Lot as a principal dwelling or a seasonal cabin. A permit may also <br />be issued for more than one private guest cabin on the same lot. Private guest <br />cabins may be used solely by the occupants of the principal or seasonal dwelling, <br />including their domestic employees, caretakers or non-paying guests. Private <br />guest cabins shall not be rented or leased for compensation of any kind. <br />If you have only one guest cabin 600 sq. ft. or smaller, constructed without indoor <br />plumbing, toilets or kitchen facilities and used only for occasional additional <br />sleeping space, then this use is allowed by ordinance and you do not have to apply <br />for this special permit. <br />A separate application form is required for each of these uses. Detailed information <br />is necessary to prepare an accurate permit, to speed-up the review, and to determine <br />whether or not a variance is needed. <br />IF YOU WIS:I TO APPLY FOR A CONDITIONAL. USE PERMIT, check one or both of the above <br />uses and return this sheet to the City in the enclosed postage -paid envelope. You <br />will be sent the application form by return mail. <br />Your application will be processed with NO FEE REQUIRED if all necessary information <br />Is submitted to the City Zoning Office BEFORE JULY 1, 1983. Applications received <br />after that date will loose any "grandfather" rights and will be subject to all fees <br />and other requirements of regular conditional use applications. <br />(continued on back) <br />HVILUINC A ZONING - 173-7357 • AIMIINISTRA IION A I INANCE 473-7358 • PUBLIC WORKS - 473.7)59 <br />%SSESSIN C <br />
