CITY of ORONO <br />Post Office br x 66*CrystaI Bay, Minnesota 55323• Mu:iiripal Offices <br />On the North Shore of Lake Minnetonka <br />CERTIFIED LETTER <br />August 17, 1988 <br />Mr. & Mrs. Ewald Gustafson <br />603 lake Street, Unit 109 <br />Excelsior, MN 55331 <br />Dear Mr. & Mrs. Gustafson: <br />This letter is written to advise you that the Orono Council will take <br />final action regarding the Merritt Peterson and Rick Stodola application <br />that would ask for approval of a variance that would ailow their <br />residential dock to remain on Tracts F & G of Registered Land Survey $1216, <br />formerly owned by you, and now conceptually deemed an unbuildable lot by <br />the Council. <br />If you will remember Mr. Gustafson., you were advised by me a few years <br />back to combine all of these parcels to create one potential buildable lot, <br />but I have failed to hear anything from you on this matter. Since that <br />time, you have sold off two of these parcels to Mr. Peterson and Mr. <br />Stodola. During the review of their application, certain issues and <br />questions have been raised regarding your properties. <br />The first involves the already defined accessory use of a residential <br />dock within Tract F by Glenn Tillotson. the issue of this dock has created <br />certain difficulties in the review of the current owners' application. The <br />City would like to know how and when Mr. Tillotson acquired the right to <br />use Tract F in this manner and how was this right transferred to Mr. <br />Tillotson when the property was sold to the current owners? Tt.a <br />maintenance of a dock on a lot without a principal structure by Mr. <br />Tillotson, is a violation of the zoning code of the City, specifically <br />Section 10.03, Subdivision 9 (A) and Section 10.25, Subdivision 5 (A). <br />The second issue involves your Llans for the remaining tracts of RLS <br />#1216 and a parcel defined with a P.I.N. of 17-117-23 24 0003 that contains <br />portions of Mr. Tillotson's garage and total driveway. It has been <br />reported to the City that you have already divided portions off for sale to <br />Mr. Tillotson. The City has no record of any lot line rearrangements <br />involving the properties nor to my knowledge has there been a recent <br />attempt on your part to file for such a subdivision application. Please be <br />advised that any divisions that have not been approved by the City of Orono <br />are also a violation of Charier 11 of the Municipal Code, the sWidivision <br />regulations of the City. <br />BUILDING & ZONING - 473.7357 • ADMINIS iRA110N & FINANCE - 473-7338 • K PH( N(1RKS - 473-7359 <br />ASSESSING <br />
