•X. . : <br />*: <br />Mr. Marty E. Rye <br />March 31, 1993 <br />Page 2 <br />establishes a minimum lot size of two acres if the soils are suitable for construction <br />in its rural residential areas consistent with this standard. The city was able o <br />detrimental. <br />2. Structure Setbac ks in the Rural Area . The city also requests flexibility <br />for the minimum setback requirement for structures from recreational development <br />lakes and tributary streams. DNR rules require 100 foot setbaclw in each of these <br />cases for structures but allow septic systems to be located only 75 feet from ordinary /* <br />high water levels. The city requests that the setbacks bo consistent and that they <br />be estabUshed at 75 feet. The city's justification for this request is similar to that <br />outlined above with regard to building height. Because of Medina's pattern of ve^ <br />large lots in the rural residential area, structures are few and the lessened standard <br />is not likely to have an adverse impact on public waters within the city. <br />J <br />Your consideration of the above requests is appreciated . The city believes <br />that it has fully compUed with all other DNR requirements in its proposed shoreland <br />ordinance <br />Sincerely , <br />c^. <br />Ronald H.
