His name is Dave Martini from Bolton & <br /> Menk and he should be in contact with you next week. <br /> Here are your options for the proposed retaining walls and steps: <br /> 1. In-kind replacement of timber walls with boulders walls, exact square footage and exact location—requires <br /> Zoning Permit Application (Administrative approval) OR; <br /> 2. Replacement of timber walls with boulders walls, increase in square footage and/or in a different location or <br /> configuration—Variance and Conditional Use Permit(requires City Council approval) <br /> Regarding the proposed patio: <br /> • A building permit was recently issued for the new home with hardcover at 24.99%where 25%a is allowed. <br /> Adding a patio would put the property over the allowed hardcover. You could apply for a variance however <br /> Staff would not be supportive of a hardcover variance considering the new home and other improvements are <br /> at the limit. Additionally it is Staff's opinion that the City Council would not grant a hardcover variance � is , <br /> situation. <br /> If you would like to discuss this further please let me know. <br /> Thank you. <br /> Christine Mattson <br /> Planning Assistant <br /> City of Orono <br /> 2750 Kelley Parkway Orono MN 55356 (physical addressJ <br /> PO Box 66 Crystal Bay MN 55323-0066 (mailing addressJ <br /> `�' 952.249.4620 � 952.249.4616 <br /> �' cmattson@ci.orono.mn.us � www.ci.orono.mn.us <br /> Summer Office Hours: (Monday, May 19 through Friday,August 29,2014) <br /> Monday-Thursday: 7:30 am to 5 pm <br /> Friday: 7:30 am to 11:30 am <br /> OUR OFFICE WILL BE CLOSED: Friday,July 4, 2014 <br /> 1 <br />
