Baker (hereinafter "the applicant") <br /> is owner of the property located at 3059 Farview Lane within the <br /> City of Orono (hereinafter "City") and legally described as <br /> follows: <br /> Lot 6 , Block 1 , Farview, Hennepin County, Minnesota <br /> (hereinafter "the property"); and <br /> WHEREAS, the applicant has applied to the City for a <br /> variance to Municipal Zoning Code Section 10.22, Subdivisions 1 <br /> and 2 and Section 10.55, Subdivision 8 to permit the construction <br /> of decks and stairways in the 0-75' lakeshore setback zone where <br /> no hardcover or structure is normally allowed, and encroaching on <br /> the 26' wetland setback line where no structure or hardcover is <br /> normally allowed. <br /> NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of <br /> Orono, Minnesota: <br /> FINDINGS <br /> 1. This application was reviewed as Zoning File #1685. <br /> 2. The property is located in the LR-lA, Single Family <br /> Lakeshore Residential Zoning District. <br /> 3. The Orono Planning Commission reviewed this application <br /> on September 16, 1991, and recommended approval of the <br /> proposed variances based upon the following findings: <br /> A. The existing pool already encroaches into the 26' <br /> required wetland setback and has only a minimal <br /> 1'-2' walkway around 3 sides. The decking around <br /> the pool and associated stairway to the lower <br /> level are necessary for safety and convenience. <br /> The proposed 10' encroachment of the normally <br /> required 26' wetland setback is not of significant <br /> magnitude to outweigh the safety issues. <br /> Page 1 of 6 <br />
