Box 66 Crystal Bay, Minnesota 55323 Attn: Mr. Michael P. Gaffron A3sistant Planning and Zoning Administrator RE: 2610 WEST LAFAYETTE ROAD, ORONO, PID NUMBER 21-117-23 24 0043 Dear Mr. Gaffron: As you know from previous discussions, we wish to remove the existing house, garage and all hardcover from the above men- tion-,d site and replace it with a new home, garage and hard- cover. The existing structure and hardcover are not in compliance with the existing Orono City Zoning Codes relating to hardcover and lakeshore setback encroachment. We believe that the proposed new home and site improvement, while still not in compliance with all existing codes, will be a significant improvement to the property and will address the hardship issues. Enclosed are our completed applications for variances for hardcover and grading in the 0-751 setback zone. In addition to the other submittals required with the applica- tions, we have enclosed six (6) copies of information pre- pared by Arteka Landscape Architects, showing the existing property and structures with topographical contours, with a transparent overlay showing the proposed home and garage with revised land contours. The information also includes hardcover calculations made by Arteka showing the existing hardcover in the setback zones compared to the proposed hardcover in the same zones. We have also had a model of the proposed improved site made for your convenience in viewing and considering this matter. We have also had large scale overlays and drawings made which we would like to show you and your associates as part of our explanation of the proposed improvements.
