Minnesota 55391 <br />Re; Storage Shed <br />Dear Mr. Wolfe: <br />Pursuant to our discussion of Mav 31.1 understand you will not be providing the City with a <br />revised survey showing your new storage shed as being within your property boundaries. <br />Consequently, your after-the-fact variance application has not been scheduled for the June <br />Planning Commission meeting. <br />You indicate it is now your position that the storage shed is actually an ice tishing house <br />which you intend to move out onto the ice each winter and store temporarily on the shore in the <br />summer. 1 advised you I would review the City codes regarding the status of Tish houses". <br />As a "shed" your building is considered as a permanent structure; as a fish house . it is <br />considered as a temporarv' strucnare. Both permanent and temporary structures are dealt with <br />similarlv in Section 10.55. Subd. 8 and Section 10.22. Subd. 2. Neither tempora .[v_OQr <br />.m.rmrP. ..re nllnwed within 75’ of the lake nor encroaching past the average setback <br />line Neither vou nor anv other resident are allowed to store a tish house in the lakeshore <br />^d not meeting the setback requirements. A temporary strucmre is considered hardcover, is <br />an encroachment, and is regulated the same as a permanent structure. <br />Your comment that manv propertv owners on Casco Point have fish houses stored ne.xt to the <br />lake has no bearing on vour individual situation. Furthermore, our shoreline inspection tour of <br />the Cas.o Point. West Arm. Forest Lake. Nonh Arm and Carman ’s Bay areas on June -nd <br />found no more than five "fish houses" on appro.ximately 14 miles ot shorelmc. They simply are <br />not being stoied on the shoreline at the vast majority ot lakeshore residences. <br />The Citv’s position on vour building has not changed and will not change no matter what you <br />call it Further the Cin- has no survev that shows this building is located or stored within your <br />propenv boundaries, .-\bsent such a survey, your after-the-fact variance request cannot proceed <br />Telephone (612) 473-7357 • F.W 473-0510
