MINUTES OF THE REGULAR ORONO COUNCIL MEETING JULY 10, 1989 <br />#1415 ROBERT /CHERYL HUMPHREY <br />669 MINNETONKA HIGHLANDS LAND <br />VARIANCE <br />RESOLUTION #2656 <br />Mr. Humphreys was present for this matter. <br />City Administrator Bernhardson informed the Council that the <br />Planning Commission had recommended approval of this application <br />provided that hardcover remain at 37.1% The Planning Commission <br />also recommended that the applicant file a separate application • <br />for the pool at the time he intends to have it constructed. The <br />applicant is requesting approval of the pool at this time so that <br />he would only need to apply for a renewal. <br />Councilmember Goetten said that Mrs. Humphrey had indicated <br />that the pool would not be constructed for 5 years. Goetten did <br />not see how. approval of the pool could be given at this time due <br />to the fact that an actual plan was not being submitted for <br />approval. <br />Mr. Humphrey clarified that it was their intention to <br />construct the pool within the next year or two. He said that <br />they had purchased their property on the representation that <br />there was a swimming area. That was not the case and he would <br />like to proceed with the pool as soon as it is feasible. He said <br />he was asking for conceptual approval, conditioned upon no <br />increase in hardcover, so that he would be able to plan <br />accordingly. <br />Mayor Grabek stated that he too would have difficulty <br />approving the future pool at this time. He said that he did not <br />feel that the request for a pool was unreasonable and could see <br />no reason why the applicant would have any difficulty with <br />approval at the time of actual construction. <br />It was moved by Mayor Grabek, seconded by Councilmember • <br />Goetten, to adopt Resolution #2656, approving the hardcover <br />variance for the deck only. Motion, Ayes =5, Nays =O, Motion <br />passed. <br />3 <br />• <br />ZONING FILE #1405 - COLWELL CONTINUED <br />would be served by an outlot and the lot to the north would <br />access off of Old Crystal Bay Road.
