Mirjwsota 55391 <br />Re; Storage Shed <br />Dear Mr. Wolfe; <br />Pursuant to our discussion of May 31.1 understand you will not be providing the City with a <br />revised survev showing your new storage shed as being within your propeny boundaries. <br />Consequently, your after-the-fact variance application has not been scheduled tor the June <br />FManmng Commission meeting. <br />You indicate it is now vour position that the storage shed is actually an ice fishing house <br />which vou intend to move out onto the ice each winter and store temporarily on the shore in the <br />summer. I aovised you I would resiew the City codes regarding the status ot Tish houses . <br />As a "shed", your building is considered as a permanent structure; as a "fish house . it is <br />considered as a lemporar^ structure. Both permanent and temporary structures arc dealt with <br />similarlv in Section 10.55. Subd. S and Section 10 22, Subd. 2. ^exjempoiarv^ <br />n.rm,.nent .structures are nllowed within 15' of aveia^e_ietM>LK <br />line Neither vou nor anv other resident are allowed to store a "fish house in the lakeshore <br />y^d not meeting the setback requirements. A temporary structure is considered hardcover, is <br />an encroachment, and is regulated the same as a permanent structure. <br />Your comment that manv property^ 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 o <br />the Casco Point. West Arm. Forest Lake. North Arm and Carman’s Bay areas on June .nd <br />found no more than five 'fish houses" on approximately 14 miles ot shoreline They simply are <br />not being stored on the shoreline at the vast majority ot lakeshore residences. <br />The City ’s position on your building has not changed and will not ch.inge no matter w^hat you <br />call it Funlier. the Cirv has no survey that shows this building is located or stored within your <br />property boundaries. Absent such a survey, your after-the-fact variance request cannot proceed <br />Ttlephone (612) 473-7357 • F.AX 473-0510
