Box 66 <br /> "--- Orono, MN 55356 Crystal Bay, MN 55323-0066 <br /> June 17, 2003 <br /> Mr. And Mrs. David Gross <br /> 2635 Countryside Drive West <br /> Long Lake, MN 55326 <br /> Dear Mr. And Mrs. Gross: <br /> As we have discussed, a cement court was built on your property which does not meet the <br /> required setback distance from the side property line on your lot. Because your 35' X 65' court is <br /> more than 1000 square feet the Orono Zoning Code Sections 10.03, Subdivision 14 (C) and <br /> Subdivision 14 (D) require that it be located 30' from a side property line. Yours appears to be <br /> about 7' or 8'. <br /> If you or your contractor had applied for the required permit prior to beginning work you <br /> would have known about these requirements in advance. When your contractor started work <br /> even though there was no permit posted he left you in a difficult position <br /> You also hired a landscape contractor to build a fenced in garden. This garden does not <br /> require a permit, but it does need to be: <br /> 1. On your property <br /> 2. No more than 6' high within 30' of the property line <br /> 3. No fill or retaining wall may be within 5' of the property line <br /> Section 12.02 of the Orono Zoning Code says: "The owner and/or occupant of any <br /> property, upon which any work has been done in violation of any Building Code or zoning <br /> requirement shall be responsible for obtaining a permit, and/or for correcting, removing or <br /> abating such violation within thirty days after notice from the City that such violation exists." <br /> Therefore, if you and your contractors have not corrected these violations by July 21, <br /> 2003, the City may initiate legal action. If you have any questions or require further explanation <br /> please feel free to contact either me or the zoning department at City Hall. <br /> ���� a�. <br /> � <br /> Building and Zoning Inspector <br /> Telephone(952)249-4600 • Fax(952)249-4616 <br /> www.ci.orono.mn.us <br />
