ORONO <br />Post Office Box 66 • Crystal Bay, Minnesota 55323 • Municipal Offices <br />On the North Shore of Lake Minnetonka <br />February 15, 1983 <br />Record !..ot # 3 4 Charles L. & Marian Peqe1ow <br />12215 • 45th Ave. N. <br />Minneapolis, MN 55422 <br />Dear Island Landowner: <br />The purpose of this letter is to provide you with ·informaticin regarding <br />the recent zoning changes on Big Island, and how these changes may <br />affect your property. <br />The new RS Seasonal Recreational zoning regulations were established <br />by City Council adoption of Ordinance #246 on December 30, 1982. This <br />action also ended the development moratorium that had been .in effec~ <br />since November 9, 1981. <br />A summary of the ordinance is attached. If you are interested, a <br />complete text of the ordinance -is also available for a nominal charge <br />of $3.00 to defer printing and mailing costs. <br />Your property is identified in the ordinance by the Record Lot Number <br />shown above and on the attached blue page. This identification is part <br />of a special section that inventories lot by lot the ownership patterns <br />and existing uses of island proper~y. Based on this record, the ordinance <br />then "grandfathers" building rights for these Record Lots by making them <br />eligible for lot area variances. This means that for the first time <br />even if your lot is less than five acres (or two acres under the previous <br />ordinance) that you may now build a new seasonal cabin, or if you already <br />have a cabin, that it may continue to be used, improved, added-onto or <br />replaced with a new cabin, subject to building permits and setback <br />regulations, etc., but without questioning its use for building purposes, <br />and without requiring any special City Council review. <br />In order for you to automatically receive the benefits of the lot area <br />variance, you should review and complete the following before July 1, <br />1983: <br />1. Please verify the Record Lot information on the attached blue page <br />and notify the City if there is a problem or a change. <br />BUILDING & ZONING -473.7357 <br />ASSESSING <br />• ADMINISTRATION & FINANCE -473-7358 <br />(over) <br />• PUBLIC WORKS -473-7359
