(8-/ <br />UP <br />SCHWARZ / WEBER ARCHITECTS <br />3952 LOUISIANA AVENUE SOUTH • MINNEAPOLIS • MINNESOTA • 55426 <br />(612) 926-1156 <br />June 22, 1990 <br />Jeanne Mabusth <br />City of Orono <br />P.O. Box 66 <br />Crystal Bay, MN <br />#1589 <br />55323 <br />Dear Ms. Mabusth: <br />Enclosed you will find an application for a front yard set back variance from <br />100* to 63*. We have worked very hard to complete a design that would <br />reduce the amount of variance requested. <br />At this time we are submitting: <br />1. A competed application form with check for fee <br />2. Certified property owners list within 150’ <br />3. Plat map <br />4. Topographic survey <br />Due to the death of my father-in-law I will submit site plans, grading plans <br />and other site data the first part of next week. <br />We arc requesting that the front yard set back which you indicated is 100’ <br />be reduced to 68*. Most of the home would be set back at a distance <br />greater than the 68* point. We have worked hard on the design of the home <br />to hold it as far from the property line as possible. <br />i <br />As you can see from the topography, the site falls off quickly to the east <br />and north. The slopes required that the home be placed at the top of the <br />ridge. This means, in turn, that the home impose on the 100* set back line. <br />We require no other variances on the site. <br />The site topography and extremely dense vegetation cause Mr. McCloud <br />hardship in siting his home. The home is large (approximately 11,000 S.F.) <br />and has been designed to take advantage of the site conditions and <br />vegetation. It is important to us to maintain as much of the vegetation as <br />possible. <br />R 1 C H \ R IT I S C H V\ A R 2 . NEIL W I B f K • I A N D R I L A T O N D R E S S E
