Please feel free to contact Lyle Oman (our Building Official) or myself when you wish to begin <br /> your repair work on your property. We will be happy to meet with you to discuss your options. <br /> Regarding identifying and re-establishing your property line,your best line of defense is to have a professional land <br /> surveyor identify and mark your property corners. If property irons are missing the surveyor should install new ones. <br /> Unfortunately one of the problems with gravel driveways is that, over time,they grow or creep outside the intended <br /> boundaries. I assume this is the case with your neighbor's driveway. Property line disputes must be settled privately, <br /> between both property owners, and the City does not become involved. <br /> According to violation letters, the shed on 3405 was constructed in the spring of 1998. What is not clear is when the <br /> previously existing shed shown on the 1987 survey was constructed. Regardless, building permits were required. In <br /> order to resolve the issue of the shed, as the violation letters are over 10 years old, the city will have to send a new <br /> violation letter. We cannot, as you suggested, enter the property and remove the shed. The bank's property rights are <br /> no different than any other property owner. We will send a new violation letter next week to the property owner and <br /> will hopefully resolve the issue. <br /> Please let me know if you have any questions. <br /> Melanie <br /> Melanie Curtis <br /> Planning & Zoning Coordinator <br /> City of Orono <br /> 2750 Kelley Parkway <br /> Orono, MN 55356 <br /> Direct Dial: 952.249.4627 <br /> Fax: 952.249.4616 <br /> Planning &Zoning Office 952.249.4620 <br /> Email: mcurtisCa�ci.orono.mn.us <br /> Website: www.ci.orono.mn.us <br /> Summer Hours: (Monday, May 24th through Friday, September 3rd) <br /> M -Th7:30amto5:00pmandFri7:30amto11:30am <br /> 1 <br />
