Dear Mr.Wilson:
It has came to my attention that your dock and boat storage may not be in compliance with Lake Minnetonka
Conservation District (LMCD) Code. Based off of a recent inspection, your boat and boat lift do not appear to meet
side setback requirements.
Ail docking and boat storage on Lake Minnetonka must be contained within the authorized dock use area for that site.
LMCD Code Section 1.02, subd. 3 defines an authorized dock use areas as "that area in the Lake which may be
used for docks, moorings, boat storage, swimming floats, ski jump storage, or diving towers, or which may be
enclosed on three sides for any of these purposes". The three side of the authorized dock use area are defined by
dock length and side setback limitations.
LMCD Code Section 2.01, subd. 2a) states that the authorized dock use area extends into the Lake a distance equai
to the 929.4' lakeshore frontage at the site, with a maximum distance of 100', LMCD Code Section 2.01, subd. 2b)
states that the authorized dock use area is limited in width by setback limitations from the side site line extensions as
follows:
For that portion of the length of the authorized The setback
dock use area which extends from the shore shall be
Zero to 50 feet 10 feet
Over 50 feet to 100 feet 15 feet
Canopies 20 feet
This code section allows abutting prope►ty owners to mutually consent to adjustment of these side setback
requirements on a case by case basis, which may be revoked at any time. Please call me upon receipt of this letter
so that we can schedule a meeting on site to discuss your options.
Sincerely,
LAKE MINNETONKA CONSERVATION DISTRICT
