ORONO CITY COUNCIL MEETING <br />MINUTES FOR OCTOBER 12,1998 <br />(#5) #2418 ROBERT LUND, 1655 BOHN’S POINT ROAD - CONTINUED <br />Kelley questioned building a house with 6.000 s.f. plus a swimming pool on property located on Lake <br />Minnetonka, with no plans for decks or patios. Kelley was eoncemed about future proposals to add <br />hardcover for a deck or patio. <br />Lui' stated the original home had a small terrace on the lakeside which tlie Newmans did not use much. <br />The proposed house is designed so that the first floor is 6" above grade. This design is to give you the <br />feeling that you are outside when you are actually inside. They will have a covered deck on the <br />northwest end of the house, from the breakfast room to the gables. <br />Mayor Jabbour voiced concern to Lund that in the future the applicants may be back asking for <br />additional variances for a deck/patio/terracing. Mayor Jabbour felt that a percentage of hardcover should <br />be set aside for additional terracing/decking/patio for future use. <br />Flint expressed concern over the 30' high tower. Flint felt it would look too massive from the lake. Flint <br />stated he would not favor this application w ith this tower. <br />Lund asked Council for a consensus as to w hat they w ould be looking for. <br />Mo^ed by Peterson, seconded by Goetten, to approve application #2418 removing the <br />gazebo/walkway, adding the pool, the tower to be no higher than the highest point on the south <br />garage side of the home, and to allow hardcover in the 75-250' setback to be 11,605 s.f. (26.7%). <br />Mayor Jabbour asked that the resolution note that Council is concerned with the lack of patios/decking, <br />that and the applicant recognizes this concern, and that the applicant requested Council to approve the <br />application as proposed and acknow ledge that he or she may not have the right to add a patio/decking <br />in the future. <br />(#6) #2420 ROBERT RYAN, JR., 3535 CHRISTINE DRIVE - VARIANCE - RESOLUTION NO. <br />4171 <br />The Applicants were not present. <br />Moved by Kelley, seconded by Peterson, to adopt Resolution No. 4171 denying Application #2420^ <br />3535 Christine Drive.
