See attached 1994 survey and recent airphoto. The average lakeshore setback is applicable—new <br /> addition must not extend lakeward of the average setback line as depicted in the airphoto. <br /> Ordinary high water mark(OHW) for this property and all Lake Minnetonka properties is 929.4 feet,with a 100-year(1%) <br /> flood elevation of 931.5 feet. The Regulatory Flood Protection Elevation (Orono code) is 932.5'. Minimum lowest <br /> opening per Minnehaha Creek Watershed District (MCWD) rules is 933.5'. I suggest that you contact the MCWD to <br /> determine how these requirements affect your specific home design. <br /> Mike <br /> Michael P.Gaffron <br /> Senior Planner <br /> City of Orono <br /> (Street Address) 2750 Kelley Parkway <br /> (Mailing Address) P.O.

What is the side yard setback for the west side of the lot? <br /> There is no street on this side of the property, but the adjacent property fronts a different street. I <br /> would like to confirm whether the "Side Yard" setback(10'-0") applies, or the "Side Yard Adjacent to <br /> Street" setback(15'-0") applies. (1 assume that because the actual side yard does not front a street <br /> that the Side Yard setback(10'-0"J would app/yJ. Please confirm. <br /> 2. Is there data available from the city to show the ordinary high water mark for this property? <br /> 1 <br />
