RV�7 HRCHI�� Plymouth,MN 55442 <br /> April 6,2005 <br /> City of Orono <br /> 2750 Kelley Parkway <br /> Crystal Bay, MN 55323 <br /> Dear Sir or Madam: <br /> The following is a brief description for an addition&remodeling project for the Mack Residence located <br /> 1978 Shadywood road. <br /> Due to the limited area that can be developed on this property and the proximity to the lake level we are <br /> proposing the removal of a one car detached garage and the construction of an attached three car <br /> garage and a second floor addition. We are also proposing a few small additions to make the plan <br /> more livable. Due to the original cost of the home it is not economically feasible to tear down the <br /> existing structure and build a new home in iYs place. <br /> We are proposing reducing the patio and driveway areas to achieve a net hardcover reduction. <br /> Although the house footprint is being increased the net loss in hardcover amounts to an 8°/a reduction <br /> in the 0'-75'zone and a 12% reduction in the 75'-250'zone. <br /> It is our intention to improve the property which was originally a lake cabin into a home that would not <br /> only be more attractive but more useable for today's lifestyle and way of living. Due to the water level in <br /> relationship to the existing structure the home currently has no basement,with the exception of a small <br /> mechanical area. The remainder is a very limited access crawl space. <br /> We are proposing the larger garage to enable the owner to park vehicles inside rather than in the <br /> driveway and along the street. This garage area would also provide storage that would normally be <br /> located in the basement. The second floor addition is to accommodate new Bedrooms and a Family <br /> Room area, which would typically be in a lower level. The Owner currently has three children and is <br /> running out of room in the current structure,which has 3 small bedrooms and one bath. We are hoping <br /> to construct an attractive and liveable home in which fhis family can live in and grow with for years to <br /> come. <br /> Sincerely, <br /> Richard Storiien <br /> Architect <br />
