� � <br /> October 24, 2000 <br /> Ron Moorse <br /> Administrator of City�f Orono <br /> 2750 Kelley Parkway <br /> Orono, Minnesota <br /> Dear Mr. Moorse: <br /> Ple�se accept this letter as a fc�rmal complaint, by the undersigned homeowners, <br /> with regards to the excessive amount of allowable hard cover occurring on the residential <br /> construction at 2696 Caroline Avenue, Orono, Minnesota. <br /> Jeremy and Robin Bupp are the names of homeowners per the Certificate Of <br /> Survey, which was conducted by Alta Survey Co., Inc. The builder is purported to be <br /> Stephen Longman Builders, inc. <br /> We are herewith attaching the survey conducted by Alta Survey Co., Inc. certified <br /> as of 10-9-00 and signed by Ronald L. Knieger, Registration number 14374 and pmject <br /> rnimber 99056. <br /> Said survey, in our opinion, enone�usly shows the lot area as 35000 squa.re feet. <br /> As this lakeshore residential lot is within 1000 feet of lakeshore it is zoned LR-1C and <br /> classified as General Development. For all lots in this classification of 0-1.99 acres in <br /> total area, the total combined footprint areas of all principle and accessory structures <br /> shall not exceed 15 percent af the lot area. 35000 square feet multiplied by 15% equals <br /> 5250 square feet allowed structure area. However, the consultant's calculation, as <br /> attested to by the attached document, shows the respective lot area as having 31,549.79 <br /> square feet, multiplied by 15% equals 4732.46 square feet allowed structure area. This is <br /> a major difference of 3450.21 less total square feet resulting in 517.54 square feet less �f <br /> allowed structure area. <br /> Allowing for the 75 foot hardcover zone the Aita survey further shows the lot area <br /> to be 24700 square feet, multiplied by 25% or 6175 square feet total all�wable hard <br /> surface. However, the aforementioned consultant's calculations allowing for the 75 foot <br /> hardcover zone, shows the respective lot area ta be 22,418.54 square feet, multiplied by <br /> 25% equals 5604.64 square feet totai allowable hard surface areas. <br /> The Alta survey shows the house under constniction as having 4194 square feet. <br /> Whereas, the consultant's computations usin�the same Alta survey data shows the house <br /> as being 4748.67 square feet. This is a major difference �f 554.67 square feet. <br /> The above footprint figures show that in both categories, the 15% and ZS% the <br /> hardcover exceeds that which is aliowed by the City of Orono, Zoning Ordinance. <br />
