Filips <br />2570 Thoroughbred Lane <br />Long Lake, MN 55356 <br />Re: Illegal Fence <br />Dear Mr. Filips: <br />It has come to the attention of the City that you have constructed a fence approximately 6 feet in <br />height along your north property boundary. This fence as constructed is in violation of Orono <br />Zoning Code Section 10.03, Subdivision 15 which limits the height of fences to 3-1/2 feet within <br />both street yards of'through lots' (lots that abut streets at both the front and rear). <br />Additionallv, it appears that this fence may be located within a wetland protected by the State of <br />Minnesota Wetland Conservation Act, and if so, is in violation of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers <br />permit whi-'h was issued for this subdivision, per the attached covenants. <br />The fence must be brought into compliance within 30 days. Correction of all violations may <br />require one or more of the following actions: <br />1. Remove it from the defined wetland area and reduce the height to 3-1/2 feet if it is <br />to be located less than 50 feet from your north lot line. <br />2. Remove it from the defined wetland and place it at a location at least 50 feet from <br />your north lot line if it is to remain at its current height of approximately 6 feet <br />The pertinent sections of the zoning code are attached, along with a copy of the covenant restrictions. <br />Please contact me at 473-7357 if you have any questions. <br />Sincerely, <br />Michael P. Gaffron <br />Senior Planning Coordinator <br />end. <br />Tdephonc (612) 473-7357 • FAX 473-0510
