MINUTES OF THE REGULAR ORONO COUNCIL MEETING <br />HELD MARCH 8, 1993 <br />ZONING FILE #1792 - CONT. <br />Mabusth explained the proposed residence meets the <br />requirement of a 50’ setback and therefore a review <br />necessary. <br />DNR’S <br />s not <br />Hurr expressed concern about the need for a hardcover variance. <br />Mark Gronberg noted they ha^'e given property for the road easement, <br />and therefore should be given consideration for the overage in <br />hardcover. <br />Goetten voiced concern that the City has just adopted the new <br />shoreland regulations, and granting setback variances would set a <br />negative precedent. <br />Mark Gronberg asked that Council review each Individual lot. He <br />noted the pond was artificially created. <br />Jabbour stated the ordinance was written with the intent to help <br />to purify water entering Lake Minnetonka. He felt the applicant <br />would obtain the desired setback just by waiting until the water <br />level of the creek went down. <br />Mabusth noted the dam controls the OHW of the ponding tributary. <br />It was moved by Jabbour, seconded by Hurr, to approve Application <br />#1792 Donald Gronberg, 110 Leaf Street, approving Plan B per the <br />hardships stated with the Planning Commission recommendation, and <br />granting setback, hardcover and lot area variances for a new <br />residence.

L*ALLIER, <br />2684 LYDIARD AVENUE - <br />CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT - RESOLUTION #3243 <br />Mr. L’AI Her was present. <br />Mabusth explained the applicant seeks a conditional use permit for <br />the Installation of a kitchen within a guest apartment. A permit <br />has been issued for the construction of all but the kitchen area. <br />Access to the apartment is via a skyway, an Internal stairway and <br />a safety access through a three~season porch. The Planning <br />Commission has recommended removal of the access stairs from thei <br />three~season porch, however staff has asked CouncI I to consider <br />allowing the fear access stairs to remain for safety reasons, <br />especially due to the fact that the apartment is over the garage <br />area. <br />6 <br />eJ
