Substandard properties within the Shoreland Overlay District, like the subject lot, are able to be redeveloped without variances if specific standards are met; such as: 1. All setback requirements can be met; 2. A Type 1 sewage treatment system consistent with Minnesota Rules, chapter 7080, can be installed or the lot is connected to a public sewer; and 3. The impervious surface coverage meets all hardcover location and square footage restrictions of this chapter and the total square footage of hardcover does not exceed 25 percent of the entire lot area. 4. All other zoning district standards can be met. The property can conform to each of the above requirements therefore, lot area and width variances are not required in order to redevelop the property. Conditional Use Permit (Section 78-916 & 78-1286(e)) Wherever floodplain filling is proposed, DNR and MCWD regulations require the floodplain be expanded elsewhere so there is no decrease in flood storage capacity.
