There are many unknowns, so a definite <br /> answer cannot be given. <br /> If an attached garage were to be added to the east side of the home it would have to be setback 30 feet from <br /> the front property line. <br /> If a detached garage were to be built, depending upon the size, it could be north of the home with a 10 or 15 <br /> foot setback. An updated survey including hardcover calculations would need to be submitted along with the <br /> permit for the proposed structure. <br /> Also, since the lot is under 2 acres, there is a limit on the structural coverage for the lot. Structural coverage is <br /> limited to 15% of the lot size. According to Hennepin County the lot is .55 acres. Therefore, (43,560 x .55) x <br /> .15 = 3,593.70 sq ft. is the structural coverage allowed on this lot. Structural coverage means house, deck and <br /> shed. The survey we have on file is from 1993 and doesn't include the deck, so we are unable to determine <br /> current structural coverage on the property. <br /> I have forwarded your street improvement question to our consulting engineering for follow-up. <br /> If you have any other questions, please contact us. <br /> christiv�:e Mattsorti <br /> Planning Assistant <br /> City of Orono <br /> 952.249.4620 - Planning & Zoning <br /> 952.249.4600 - Main <br /> 952.249.4616 - Fax <br /> www.ci.orono.mn.us <br /> .......................................................................... <br /> .......................................................................... <br /> Office Hours: Monday- Friday 8:00 am to 4:30 pm <br /> .......................................................................... <br /> .......................................................................... <br /> Physical Address: <br /> 2750 Kelley Parkway <br /> Orono, MN 55356 <br /> Mailing Address: <br /> PO Box 66 <br /> Crystal Bay, MN 55323-0066 <br /> From: Planning [mailto:Planning@ci.orono.mn.us] <br /> Sent: Monday, March 23, 2009 10:09 AM <br /> To: Christine Mattson <br /> Subject: FW: House Addition Question <br /> ------------------------------------------- <br /> � <br />
