Mabusth, Building & Zoning Administrator <br />February 11, 1987 <br />#1080 City of Orono (formerly John McDowell), 3700, 3750, 3780, <br />3820, 3830 & 3860 Bayside Road - Rezoning <br />- Continuation of Public Hearing <br />Current Zoning - RR-lA <br />Proposed Zoning - LR-IA <br />Approximate Area - 25.01 Acres; ]4.44 Dry; 10.57 Wet <br />Review of Application: <br />At our last meeting the former applicant, John McDowell, was advised <br />that the original rezoning application would have to be modified to include <br />only the areas of the various properties v/ithin 1,000 feet of the shoreline <br />of Lake Minnetonka. In review of the factual findings, the pertinent <br />sections of the Comprehensive Plan and Zoning Code, written and oral <br />comments of surrounding residents, the City staff was not able to recommend <br />the rezoning as proposed. The Planning Commission tabled the application <br />providing John with additional time to review his position and evaluate the <br />effects on his future development plans. <br />Since that meeting, staff has met with Mrs. Miner and her agent <br />advising them of the Miner's legal rights regarding the potential sale of <br />the three existing parcels in their present configuration. Mrs. Miner may <br />sell all three without the need for approval from the City as each has an <br />established residence with independent legal descriptions (the three <br />properties were never legally combined). Both agreed that this Miner <br />homestead lot was severly substandard even in consideration of the proposed <br />LR-IA standards. The Miners will be filing a lot line rearrangement <br />application with the intent of increasing the dry burldable envelone fur <br />review at your March meeting. <br />John McDowell has released all interest in the current rezoning <br />application as amended by staff. The application to rezone the areas <br />specified within the enclosed plan is recommended by the City for the <br />Planning Commission's final consideration. <br />Staf£ Recommendation: <br />To recommend that the land within 1,000 feet of the shoreline of Lake <br />Minnetonka involving *:he James Maus property at 3700 Bay^'ide Road, the John <br />Burger property at 3750 Bayside Road, the Hazel Anderson property at 3780 <br />Bayside Road and the Miner properties at 3820, 3830 and 3860 Bayside Road <br />be rezoned from RR-lA, Rural Residential Zoning to LR-IA Lakcshore <br />Residential Zoning, based on the fojlowing findings:
