PUBLIC WORKS/CITY ENGINEER REPORT
8. 2019 ROAD MAINTENANCE PROJECT – AWARD
Edwards stated Staff did solicit and received four bids for the City’s 2019 road maintenance projects. The
low bidder was GMH Construction in the amount of $1,201,238.67. In addition to the construction cost,
Bolton and Menk provided a not-to-exceed proposal for $185,000 for construction oversight.
When the City went out for bids, it broke the bid into Part A and Part B. Part A consisted of Forest Arms
Lane, Tonka View, and Chevy Chase. Part B consisted of simply East Long Lake as a bid alternate.

Staff is recommending that both Parts A and B be awarded to GMH Construction in the amount of
$1,201,238.25.
Funding for the project will come from a combination of the Pavement Management Fund, the
Stormwater Fund, and Sewer Fund. Currently the Pavement Management Fund has $1,081,095.92 based
on current estimates, which results in approximately a $100,000 shortfall. That shortfall is anticipated to
be made up either through the General Fund or a short-term interfund loan.
Walsh stated the good news is the City is projecting a significant amount of project revenue in 2019 as
well as $534,000 for 2020 in the Pavement Management Fund.
Crosby moved, Johnson seconded, to award the 2019 Road Improvement Projects to GMH
Construction in the amount of $1,201,238.67, and to approve Bolton & Menk’s not-to-exceed fee in
the amount of $185,000 for construction oversight. VOTE: Ayes 4, Nays 0.
MAYOR/COUNCIL REPORT
Seals noted next week is spring break for Orono, which is why the Council meeting is being held this
evening.
Walsh reported last week he attended the luncheon with the Long Lake Chamber of Commerce where he
was the keynote speaker. Updates were provided to the attendees concerning Orono and all the
improvements and upgrades that are being undertaken within the City.
Walsh stated that evening he also attended the First Community Night-Meet the Mayor in Mound, which
was held at the Performing Arts Center. The event was taped and the link has been provided through the
City’s listserv.
CITY ADMINISTRATOR REPORT
Rief stated he would like to send out his thoughts and prayers to the people impacted by flooding in
Nebraska. Infrastructure damages are estimated at close to a $1 billion and over $400 million in livestock
losses. Seventy-three cities were declared disaster areas and 53 of the 59 counties have been impacted by
the flooding.

Work Session Minutes
Tuesday, March 19, 2019
Council Chambers 6:00 p.m.
PRESENT: Mayor Dennis Walsh, Council Members Richard F. Crosby II, Victoria Seals and
Matt Johnson. Representing staff were City Administrator Dustin Rief and City Clerk Anna
Carlson.
Meeting Start Time: 6:05 p.m.
1. Policy Discussion
City Administrator Dustin Rief presented an email he received in regards to County Funding
for roads and bridges. Rief explained that in 2015, state legislation was passed to reallocate
$32 million of the sales tax collected from leased vehicles from the State’s general fund, half
would go to Greater Minnesota Transit and half would be distributed between five of the
seven metro counties through the County State Aid Highway fund. In effort to balance
funding for transit and roads and bridges, the law excluded Hennepin and Ramsey counties
from receiving their percentage of funding. Distributing Hennepin and Ramsey county
proceeds to the other five metro counties puts cities in these counties at a disadvantage when
it comes to accessing funds for county road and bridge projects. Rief asked if the City
Council would like to send a letter of support of two bills (HF 2194 and SF 20187) to
Hennepin County Officials to generate support to eliminate the exemption of Hennepin and
Ramsey counties and to distribute the sales tax on leased vehicles, per county state aide
formula, to all metro cities.
The City Council unanimously agreed.
Rief explained that he and the Fire Chief have reviewed the services received under the
current contract. Rief explained that the city may need to reevaluate the services currently
received versus what services are needed.
There was discussion regarding the use of medical services, calls, and other services provided
by various resources. Also discussed were ways in which the city could look in to
evaluating their needs and begin the conversation with Long Lake.
Mayor Dennis Walsh concluded the discussion by mentioning that Orono Administration
needs to assess their needs, look over the details of the services received, and work together
as a business unit with Long Lake Administration to work out a new contract that fits the
City’s needs.
Meeting End Time: 6:53 p.m.

1. Purpose. The purpose of this action item is to approve the issuance of a 2019 Hennepin County
Water Patrol Special Event Permit for use of Long Lake by the Long Lake Rowing Crew.
2. Background. The Long Lake Rowing Crew (LLRC) is again requesting permission from the Water
Patrol for a Sheriff’s Special Event Permit for use of Long Lake for regular rowing practice during the
2019 boating season. The Water Patrol standard procedure requires written approval by the affected local
government bodies prior to issuing such permits. Hours of operation are proposed to be similar to
previous years (see Exhibit A).
3. Public Comment. The City has not received any comments regarding this use.
4. Staff Recommendation. Staff recommends approval subject to the provisions stated in Orono’s
previous years proposals: 1) no organized practice on Sundays, and 2) the activity shall not impede the
use of the Summit Park Beach facilities and access by the public.
COUNCIL ACTION REQUESTED
Motion to direct staff to send a letter to the Sheriff’s Water Patrol approving issuance of the Special Event
Permit for the Long Lake Rowing Crew for the 2019 season subject to the above-noted conditions.

AGENDA ITEM
Prepared By: Correy Farniok Reviewed By: DJR Approved By: DJR
Purpose. The purpose of this action item is to gain approval to purchase a 2019 Polaris ATV.
Background. The police department has currently has a 2004 Yamaha Grizzly 450 ATV (four wheeler).
This ATV will not start and a quote for repairs is $650-$700. Trade value “as is” is $2000.00.
Recommendation to replace the current four-wheeler that we use for special events with a UTV. This UTV
would be used for special events, trail patrol and off-road emergency responses. The UTV is a 2 –door
Polaris Ranger XP 1000. It will be fully equipped with doors, windshield, roof, heater and emergency
lighting. This UTV give the police department year round use and capabilities that our current four wheel
does not offer.
Cost. The City is using the state contracted pricing for the purchasing of this UTV. Polaris Sales Inc. in
Medina will be used for purchasing the new UTV and St. Boni Motorsport offered the best price for the
2004 Yamaha Grizzly 450.
Funding. This purchase will be funded through the Police Capital Outlay Fund of the police budget.
Staff Recommendation. I recommend that we purchase the Polaris Ranger XP 1000 from Polaris Sales
Inc. in Medina for $26,370.44 and the sale of the 2004 Yamaha Grizzly 450 to St. Boni. Motorsports for
$2000.00
COUNCIL ACTION REQUESTED
Motion to approve the purchase of Polaris Ranger and sale of the 2004 Yamaha Grizzly.

AGENDA ITEM
Prepared By: Correy Farniok Reviewed By: DJR Approved By: DJR
Purpose.
In 2006, six local police departments serving the Lake Minnetonka Area formed the Lake Minnetonka
SWAT. At that time the departments saw a need for an emergency response unit to provide a rapid
response to emergency events in our communities to protect our citizens from hostile crime of violence.
The Lake Minnetonka SWAT team works in conjunction with our Lake Minnetonka Emergency
Management plan. The Lake Area SWAT team provides security and support to critical incidents,
secures and maintains emergency incident scenes, provides emergency police support for protecting first
responders and aids in crime scene preservation.
The Lake Minnetonka SWAT team has operated for more than 12 years. In 2018 the League of MN
Cities suggested that a more formal agreement be entered into by the departments that are a part of the
Lake Minnetonka SWAT team. Agreements were obtained by several other agencies that have a multi-
department SWAT team and the Lake Minnetonka SWAT team Joint Powers Agreement (JPA) was
developed. The JPA has been reviewed and approved by our city attorney as well at attorneys from other
agencies.
*Participating agencies:
Orono Police Department, Minnetrista Police Department, Wayzata Police Department, South Lake
Public Safety Department and West Hennepin Public Safety Department.
*Mound Police Department was the sixth agency

1. Purpose. The purpose of this action item is for council to accept a proposal for water meter
replacements for 2019.
2. Background. The city’s existing meter reading system was installed in 2003. The life expectancy of
the batteries within the meter transmitter unit (MTU) within the system is 15-20 years. The city is already
experiencing increasing numbers of battery failures which is making collection of data for water billing
purposes more difficult. Additionally, as mechanical meters age they begin to underreport. By the time
they reach the end of their life, meters under report by an average of 10%. Meter technology and
associated hardware and software has developed significantly since the City’s last meter swap out. New
solid state meters retain their accuracy throughout their life (20years). In addition, the newer radio
transmitters, receivers and software allow for more efficient meter reading and integration with billing
software. New transmitters and receivers will facilitate monthly meter readings if the city decides to go
that way. Currently the city reads and bills quarterly. In March the city solicited bids for a change out
over 5 years, however during the concurrent water rate study, staff developed a plan to extend the change
out period in order to help limit water rate increases. Changing out the meters over a longer timeframe
minimizes the water rate increases and allows the city to maximize use of those meters that still have
reasonable life left in them. At the March 11th council meeting Council directed staff to develop an
alternative change out plan. Staff developed a plan to change out meters in 2019, 2021, 2024 and 2027.
3. 2019 Project Scope. The scope for 2019 includes changing out 191 meters, procuring a vehicular
mounted reader and upgrading the meter reading software.
4. Cost. The city solicited a pricing proposal for our current meter supplier, Ferguson Waterworks.
Ferguson provided a quote of $70,350.00.
5. Funding. This project will be funded through the Water Enterprise Fund. The 2019 Capital
Improvement Plan (CIP) programmed $ 90,000/ year for 5 years.

3.Background/ Summary. The applicant is proposing to construct a new home on the property, in
the same lakeside footprint as the current home. (the home will expand on the street side) The
existing home is 61.2 feet from the OWHL, and encroaches up to 24 feet lakeward of the average
lakeshore setback line. The proposed home will be a walk-out rambler similar to the existing
house style, but because they plan to increase ceiling heights from existing and therefore expand
the volume of the home, as well as construct a lake side patio in a new location, variances are
requested.

RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL
NO. ________________________

WHEREAS, on April 8, 2019, the City Council reviewed the application and the
recommendations of the Planning Commission and City staff;
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the City Council of Orono, Minnesota
hereby [approves/denies] the requested variance as described above based on one or more of
the following findings of fact concerning the Property:
FINDINGS OF FACT:
1. This application was reviewed as Zoning File #LA19-000007. The analysis contained
within staff memos and the exhibits attached to the aforesaid memos, all minutes from the
above mentioned meetings, and any and all other materials distributed at these meetings
are hereby incorporated by reference.
2. The Property is located in the LR-1B Zoning District.
3. The Property contains 0.7 acres in area and has a defined lot width of 123 feet at the
OWHL and 111 feet at the 75-foot setback.
4. The Property is within Tier 1 and hardcover is limited to 25% according to the Stormwater
Quality Overlay District.
5. Applicant has applied for the following variance[s]:
a. Lot Area Variance
b. Lot Width Variance
c. 75-Foot Setback and Hardcover Variances
d. Average Lakeshore Setback Variance
6. In considering this application for variances, the Council has considered the advice and
recommendation of the Planning Commission and the effect of the proposed variances
upon the health, safety and welfare of the community, existing and anticipated traffic
conditions, light and air, danger of fire, risk to the public safety, and the effect on values
of property in the surrounding area.
ANALYSIS:
1. “Variances shall only be permitted when they are in harmony with the general purposes
and intent of the ordinance . . . .” The proposed variances are in harmony with the purpose
of the Ordinance. The lot includes difficulties in its substandard size and width, location of
adjacent homes, and the existing home’s proximity to the lake. The average lakeshore
setback variance will not further impact views of the lake for adjacent properties.
CITY OF ORONO
RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL
NO. ________________________
3
2. “Variances shall only be permitted . . . when the variances are consistent with the
comprehensive plan.” The proposed variances to develop a nonconforming lot of record
are consistent with the comprehensive plan.
3. “Variances may be granted when the applicant for the variance establishes that there are
practical difficulties in complying with the zoning ordinance. ‘Practical difficulties,’ as used in
connection with the granting of a variance, means that:
a. The property owner in question proposes to use the property in a reasonable manner,
however, the proposed use is not permitted by the official controls.
The request to permit construction of the home on the substandard lot, in the
proposed location within the lake and average lakeshore setbacks, appears to be
somewhat reasonable as the Applicants are proposing to build within the existing
lakeside footprint, the Property’s nonconforming size, and the neighboring homes’
orientation with respect to the lakeshore, and adjacent properties creates
difficulties. The hardcover level, and building encroachments proposed within the
lake yard and average lakeshore setback do not exceed existing setbacks and do
not appear to be unreasonable.
b. The plight of the landowner is due to circumstances unique to his property not created
by the landowner.
The nonconforming lot size, the existing home’s location with respect to the lake
and the neighboring home locations prevent a residential footprint consistent with
the neighborhood. The proposed overall hardcover level is conforming. The
circumstances are unique to the Property; and
c. The variance, if granted, will not alter the essential character of the locality.”
The variances are requested in order to permit construction of a home designed
to fit the character of the neighborhood according to the submitted information.
4. “Economic considerations alone do not constitute practical difficulties.” Economic
considerations have not been a factor in the variance approval determination.
5. “Practical difficulties also include but are not limited to inadequate access to direct sunlight
for solar energy systems. Variances shall be granted for earth-sheltered construction as
defined in Minn. Stat. § 216C.06, subd. 2, when in harmony with Orono City Code Chapter
78.” This condition is not applicable.
CITY OF ORONO
RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL
NO. ________________________
4
6. “The board or the council may not permit as a variance any use that is not permitted under
Orono City Code Chapter 78 for property in the zone where the affected person's land is
located.” This condition is not applicable, as the use for a residential home is an allowed
use in the LR-1B District.
7. “The board or council may permit as a variance the temporary use of a one-family dwelling
as a two-family dwelling.” This condition is not applicable.
8. “The special conditions applying to the structure or land in question are peculiar to such
property or immediately adjoining property.” The Property’s substandard size and
orientation with respect to the lakeshore, and the setback from the lake of the adjacent
homes creates difficulties for the Applicants in redeveloping the Property consistent with
the homes in their neighborhood.
9. “The conditions do not apply generally to other land or structures in the district in which the
land is located.” The Property’s nonconforming size and the relationship between the
existing home and the setback of the adjacent properties create difficulties for the
Applicants.
10. “The granting of the application is necessary for the preservation and enjoyment of a
substantial property right of the applicant.” Granting lot area, lot width, hardcover, average
lakeshore and lake setback variances are necessary for the preservation of the property
right of the Applicants.
11. “The granting of the proposed variance will not in any way impair health, safety, comfort or
morals, or in any other respect be contrary to the intent of this chapter.” Granting the
requested hardcover, lot area, lot width, average lakeshore setback and lake setback
variances in this unique situation is not contrary to the intent of the zoning chapter
12. “The granting of such variance will not merely serve as a convenience to the applicant, but
is necessary to alleviate demonstrable difficulty.” The requested variances for lot width, lot
area, and setback are necessary, and do not merely serve as a convenience to the
Applicants.
CONCLUSIONS, ORDER AND CONDITIONS:
Based upon one or more of the above findings, the Orono City Council hereby
grants a variance to Orono Municipal Zoning Code Section 78-330 to allow redevelopment of a
lot of record 0.7 acre in area and having 123 feet in width at the ordinary high water level (OHWL)
and 111 feet in width at the 75-foot setback where 1.0 acre in area and 140 feet in width are
required; and Section 78-1279 to allow construction of the home with a larger building envelope

ORONO PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING
Monday, March 18, 2019
6:30 o’clock p.m.
_____________________________________________________________________________________
2. LA19-000007 TOM RAUSCHER, 2799 PHEASANT ROAD, VARIANCES, 6:32 P.M. –
6:51 P.M.
Tom Rauscher, Applicant, was present.
Curtis stated the applicant is proposing to redevelop the property with a new home and is requesting
approval of lot area and lot width variances, an average lakeshore setback variance, lake setback variance,
and a hardcover variance.
The proposed home will be a rambler with a walkout basement, but because they are proposing increasing
ceiling heights and therefore expand the volume of the home, variances are required. The existing home
is located 61.2 feet from the OWHL and encroaches up to 24 feet lakeward of the average lakeshore
setback line. A 388 square foot portion of the home is within the 75-foot setback as well as some stone
stairs and retaining walls. There is also an existing 158 square foot patio on the walkout level of the east
side of the home and a smaller, 38 square foot landing on the west side within the 75-foot setback.
The applicant is proposing to construct the new home to fit within the existing footprint on the lake side
of the home encroaching into the average lakeshore and 75-foot setbacks. A new 462 square foot patio is
proposed on the first-floor level in the southeast corner of the home. Variances for setback are required
due to the increase in mass within the existing nonconforming footprint. The 75-foot hardcover variance
is relating to the new patio hardcover and location.
Curtis displayed sketches of the new home and noted the red line indicates the elevation profile of the
existing home.
The proposed hardcover level of 24.9 percent reflects a 155 square foot overall increase from the existing
conditions and 266 square feet of additional hardcover is proposed in the 75-foot setback due to the
proposed, larger patio. The proposed home is 896 square feet larger than the existing home. Structural
coverage is proposed at 12 percent.
Staff finds that due to the applicant’s choice to build a replacement home within the existing footprint,
there are difficulties limiting the volume expansion within the existing setback from the lake. The
location of the neighboring homes creating the average lakeshore setback also impacts the proposed
volume increases. The proposed 61.2-foot setback from the lake affects the opportunities for
improvements on the lake side of the home.
The relocation of the lakeside patio to the main level of the home results in the loss of the
“nonconforming” status of the existing patio setback and hardcover. The new patio request may be
reasonable, but Staff suggests a reduction in the size so that the 75-foot zone hardcover is not increased
over existing.
Planning Staff recommends approval subject to the Planning Commission agreeing with or identifying
practical difficulties supporting the variance. Staff does not support the larger patio in the 75-foot lake
yard as proposed.
The Planning Commission had no questions for Staff.
MINUTES OF THE
ORONO PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING
Monday, March 18, 2019
6:30 o’clock p.m.
_____________________________________________________________________________________
Tom Rauscher, Applicant, stated they looked to keep this project from being too disruptive, which is why
they are proposing to use a portion of the existing foundation. Currently there is no proper terrace there
but there was a small little one in the rear corner. There are also the current stone steps. What is being
proposed is to have a patio that is livable up on the main floor without having to deal with the garden
level or the walkout on the side of the house. Lakeside living is why the Habermans are purchasing this
house and they would like to construct the patio as proposed, but they would be willing to utilize pervious
material if necessary.
Landgraver asked what the dimensions of the porch are.
Rauscher noted it is not really a porch but the structure is somewhere around 16’ x 22 or 23 feet. They
will be taking the upper portion by the stairs and pushing it out to where the current steps are going down
to the grade.
Thiesse asked if they are proposing to utilize the existing foundation.
Rauscher indicated they are planning to utilize at least three-fourths of it. The front side is going to have
an addition put on to it so the front wall of the foundation will be torn out.
Chair Thiesse opened the public hearing at 6:38 p.m.
There were no public comments.
Chair Thiesse closed the public hearing at 6:38 p.m.
Landgraver commented everything about the plan is smart but the patio. There is a little bit of massing
associated with the house, but the homeowners are making the most out of the space. Landgraver stated
in his view the patio is a little bit of a stretch since this is new construction.
Ressler indicated he agrees with Commissioner Landgraver and that encroaching further on the lakeshore
is something that is generally resisted, especially when there is not a lot of reason for supporting it.
Thiesse asked whether the Planning Commissioners would be willing to come to some compromise on
the patio.
Landgraver stated it is too far lakeward and that he is not sure if it could angle down to the stairs. The
proposed patio would be located 61 feet from the lakeshore and that he was trying to reconcile what 61
feet on the western side would look like. From the survey, it looks like it would abut the west side.
Thiesse stated that is what he is struggling with and that it does not make a lot of sense to only build half
of the patio but that he cannot support what is being proposed.
Curtis pointed out the location of the average lakeshore setback line.
Erickson stated his understanding is that as proposed there would be 104 square feet beyond the 75-foot
line. While that is not a huge number, it is hard to see why it could not be reduced by that amount. If the
lower left corner would have more of a rounded corner rather than a square corner, that could eliminate
some area, which would bring it more in compliance.

ORONO PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING
Monday, March 18, 2019
6:30 o’clock p.m.
_____________________________________________________________________________________
Curtis suggested rather than trying to reconfigure the shape of the patio, it might be helpful for the
applicants to suggest a level that the Planning Commission feels would allow a little bit more to
accommodate the stairs.
Lemke asked if the whole house could be pushed back eight feet.
Curtis indicated the applicants would still be within the footprint and would be essentially what they are
proposing. Curtis stated she does not believe from a construction standpoint that is what they are looking
to do, and that the red line is the existing house and they are attempting to just add on to the street side
and then going upward.
Lemke commented he does not have a problem with the height increase but it is so far into the average
lakeshore setback and the setback between the adjacent houses that he has trouble justifying a further
encroachment.
Thiesse stated he struggles with the fact that the patio seems too large, but he can see a practical difficulty
with living on the lake and not having a space to sit on outside.
Rauscher pointed out the existing staircase. Rauscher stated they could eliminate anything past the
furthest point of the house, which would give them a 10’ x 20’ terrace. One of the goals is to not to break
into the retaining wall and disturb the grade. The terrace will never be seen from the lake since it sits six
feet higher and the lake drops even more. From a practical standpoint, a lower level patio is probably not
going to get used as much and it will not be as practical for them. If that line is kept straight across, that
would provide a decent size terrace and stay within the confines of what is currently there.
Landgraver commented that sounds like a good compromise.
Landgraver moved to recommend approval of Application No. LA19-000007, Tom Rauscher, 2799
Pheasant Road, granting of variances, with the reduction in the size of the deck as proposed by the
applicant, and subject to the recommendations of Staff.
Ressler stated it makes sense to allow the steps to be connected to the patio in lieu of the stepping stones.
Lemke seconded the motion.
Landgraver stated he does not want to over engineer the connection from the stairs to the patio but that he
would accept that friendly amendment.
Thiesse noted whether it is stepping stones or stairs, it would be considered hardcover.
Landgraver amended his motion to recommend approval of Application No. LA19-000007, Tom
Rauscher, 2799 Pheasant Road, granting of variances, with the reduction in the size of the deck as
proposed by the applicant, to allow hardcover from the patio to the steps, and subject to the
recommendations of Staff.
Libby indicated he would support the friendly amendment.

Public Hearing
Background
The applicant is proposing to redevelop the property with a new home, in the same footprint as
the current home. The existing home is 61.2 feet from the OWHL, and encroaches up to 24 feet
lakeward of the average lakeshore setback line. The proposed home is a rambler with a walk-
out basement but because they plan to increase ceiling heights and therefore expand the
volume of the home, as well as construct a lake side patio variances are requested.

Applicable Regulations:
Lot Area and Lot Width Variances (Section 78-330)
Zoning Code Section 78-72 provides options for the redevelopment of lots which do not meet
the minimum area or width requirements for the respective zoning district. Substandard
properties within the Shoreland Overlay District, like the subject lot, are able to be redeveloped
without variances if specific standards are met; such as:
1. All setback requirements can be met;
2. A Type 1 sewage treatment system consistent with Minnesota Rules, chapter 7080, can
be installed or the lot is connected to a public sewer; and
3. The impervious surface coverage meets all hardcover location and square footage
restrictions of this chapter and the total square footage of hardcover does not exceed
25 percent of the entire lot area.
4. All other zoning district standards can be met.
The applicant’s request for 75-foot zone hardcover, lake, and average lakeshore setback
variances results in the property’s inability to conform to all of the standards above. Therefore,
lot area and width variances are required in order to redevelop the property. The ability to
develop the property consistent with other existing developed properties in the neighborhood
would be limited if the area and width variances are not granted.
Lake Setback; 75-foot Hardcover; and Average Lakeshore Setback Variances (Sections 78-1279 &
78-1680)
The existing home encroaches approximately 13 feet into the 75-foot setback and
approximately 24 feet average lakeshore setback. A 388 square foot portion of the home is
within the 75-foot setback; in addition to some stone stairs and retaining walls, there is an
existing 158 patio on the walkout level of west side of the home and a smaller, 38 square foot
landing on the west side all within the 75-foot setback. The applicant is proposing to construct
the new home to fit within the existing footprint on the lake side of the home (encroaching into
FILE # LA19-000007
18 March 2019
Page 3 of 5
the average lakeshore and 75-foot setbacks); a new 462 square foot patio is proposed on the
first floor level in the southeast corner of the home. Variances for setback are required due to
the increase in mass within the existing nonconforming footprint. The 75-foot hardcover
variance is relating to the new patio hardcover and location.
The proposed hardcover level of 24.9% reflects a 155 square foot overall increase from the
existing conditions; while this falls within the hardcover limits, 266 square feet additional
hardcover is proposed in the 75-setback due to the proposed, larger patio. The proposed home
is 896 square feet larger than the existing home. Building coverage is proposed at 12%; the
applicant is not maximizing the proposed building coverage.
Governing Regulation: Variance (Section 78-123)
In reviewing applications for variance, the Planning Commission shall consider the effect of the
proposed variance upon the health, safety and welfare of the community, existing and
anticipated traffic conditions, light and air, danger of fire, risk to the public safety, and the effect
on values of property in the surrounding area. The Planning Commission shall consider
recommending approval for variances from the literal provisions of the Zoning Code in instances
where their strict enforcement would cause practical difficulties because of circumstances unique
to the individual property under consideration, and shall recommend approval only when it is
demonstrated that such actions will be in keeping with the spirit and intent of the Orono Zoning
Code. Economic considerations alone do not constitute practical difficulties. Practical difficulties
also include but are not limited to inadequate access to direct sunlight for solar energy systems.
Variances shall be granted for earth-sheltered construction as defined in Minn. Stat. § 216C.06,
subd. 2, when in harmony with this chapter. The board or the council may not permit as a
variance any use that is not permitted under this chapter for property in the zone where the
affected person's land is located. The board or council may permit as a variance the temporary
use of a one-family dwelling as a two-family dwelling.
According to MN §462.537 Subd. 6(2) variances shall only be permitted when:
1. The variance is in harmony with the general intent and purpose of the Ordinance. The
proposed variances are in harmony with the purpose of the Ordinance. The lot
includes difficulties in its substandard size and width, location of adjacent homes, and
the existing home’s proximity to the lake. The average lakeshore setback variance will
not further impact views of the lake for adjacent properties.
2. The variance is consistent with the comprehensive plan. The proposed variances to
develop a nonconforming lot of record are consistent with the comprehensive plan.
3. The applicant establishes that there are practical difficulties.
a. The property owner proposes to use the property in a reasonable manner not
permitted by the official controls; The request to permit construction of the
home on the substandard lot, in the proposed location within the lake and
average lakeshore setbacks, appears to be somewhat reasonable as the
applicant is proposing to build within the existing lakeside footprint, the
property’s nonconforming size, and the neighboring homes’ orientation with
respect to the lakeshore, and adjacent properties creates difficulties. The
hardcover level, and building encroachments proposed within the lake yard
and average lakeshore setback do not exceed existing setbacks and do not
appear to be unreasonable.
FILE # LA19-000007
18 March 2019
Page 4 of 5
b. There are circumstances unique to the property not created by the landowner;
The nonconforming lot size, the existing home’s location with respect to the
lake and the neighboring home locations prevent a residential footprint
consistent with the neighborhood. The proposed overall hardcover level is
conforming. The circumstances are unique to the property; and
c. The variance will not alter the essential character of the locality. The variances
are requested in order to permit construction of a home designed to fit the
character of the neighborhood according to the submitted information.
Additionally City Code 78-123 provides additional parameters within which a variance may be
granted as follows:
4. Economic considerations alone do not constitute practical difficulties. Economic
considerations have not been a factor in the variance approval determination.
5. Practical difficulties also include but are not limited to inadequate access to direct
sunlight for solar energy systems. Variances shall be granted for earth-sheltered
construction as defined in Minn. Stat. § 216C.06, subd. 2, when in harmony with Orono
City Code Chapter 78. This condition is not applicable.
6. The board or the council may not permit as a variance any use that is not permitted
under Orono City Code Chapter 78 for property in the zone where the affected person's
land is located. This condition is not applicable, as the use for a residential home is an
allowed use in the LR-1B District.
7. The board or council may permit as a variance the temporary use of a one-family
dwelling as a two-family dwelling. This condition is not applicable.
8. The special conditions applying to the structure or land in question are peculiar to such
property or immediately adjoining property. The property’s substandard size and
orientation with respect to the lakeshore, and the setback from the lake of the
adjacent homes creates difficulties for the Owners in redeveloping the property
consistent with the homes in their neighborhood.
9. The conditions do not apply generally to other land or structures in the district in which
the land is located. The property’s nonconforming size and the relationship between
the existing home and the setback of the adjacent properties create difficulties for the
owners.
10. The granting of the application is necessary for the preservation and enjoyment of a
substantial property right of the applicant. Granting lot area, lot width, hardcover,
average lakeshore and lake setback variances are necessary for the preservation of
the property right of the applicant.
11. The granting of the proposed variance will not in any way impair health, safety, comfort
or morals, or in any other respect be contrary to the intent of this chapter. Granting the
requested hardcover, lot area, lot width, average lakeshore setback and lake setback
variances in this unique situation is not contrary to the intent of the zoning chapter.
12. The granting of such variance will not merely serve as a convenience to the applicant,
but is necessary to alleviate demonstrable difficulty. The requested variances for lot
width, lot area, and setback are necessary, and do not merely serve as a convenience
to the applicant.
The Commission may recommend or Council may impose conditions in granting of variances.
Any conditions imposed must be directly related to and must bear a rough proportionality to the
impact created by the variance. No variance shall be granted or changed beyond the use
permitted in this chapter in the district where such land is located.

Practical Difficulties Statement
Applicant has provided supporting documentation regarding the applicable Practical Difficulties
attached as Exhibit B, and should be asked for additional testimony regarding the application.
Practical Difficulties Analysis
Staff finds that due to the applicant’s choice to build a replacement home within the existing
footprint there are difficulties limiting the volume expansion within the existing setback from
the lake. The location of the neighboring homes creating the average lakeshore setback also
impacts the proposed volume increases. Also, the proposed 61.2 foot setback from the lake
affects the opportunities for improvements on the lake side of the home.
The relocation of the lakeside patio to the main level of the home results in the loss of the
“nonconforming” status of the existing patio setback and hardcover. The new patio request
may be reasonable, however staff suggests a reduction in the size so that the 75-foot zone
hardcover is not increased over existing.
Engineer Comments
The City’s Engineer has conducted a cursory review of the plans. Those comments are attached
as Exhibit G. A more thorough review will be done at the time of the building permit review.
Public Comments
To date, no public comments have been received.
Issues for Consideration
1. Does the Planning Commission find that that the property owner proposes to use the
property in a reasonable manner which is not permitted by an official control?
2. Does the Planning Commission find that the variance(s), if granted, will not alter
the essential character of the neighborhood?
3. Does the Commission find it necessary to impose conditions in order to mitigate the
impacts created by the granting of the requested variance(s)?
4. Are there any other issues or concerns with this application?
Planning Staff Recommendation
Planning Staff recommends approval should the planning commission agree with and/or identify
practical difficulties supporting the variances. Staff does not support the larger patio in the 75
lake yard as proposed.

AGENDA ITEM
Prepared By: J. Barnhart Reviewed By: DJR Approved By: DJR
1. Purpose. To consider a preliminary plat that creates one residential buildable lot and an access
outlot at 1645 Shadywood Road.
2. MN§15.99 Application Deadline. The application was received on February 20, 2019 and
considered to be complete on April 3rd, 2019. The 120-Day review period has been extended and
will expire on August 1, 2019.
3. Background. This property was the subject of a preliminary plat in 2013, but expired with no
final plat. This layout is consistent with that proposal. The proposal includes two lots in a front
lot/ back lot configuration. All lots and the access outlot meet the size and width requirements of
the Zoning Ordinance.
The project will include grading for the house site, and the removal of some trees within the
interior of the lot. The grading will be done as part of the building permit.
4. Planning Commission Vote and Comment. On March 18, the Planning Commission held a
public hearing. Following the public hearing, the Planning Commission voted 6-0 on a motion to
approve the project.
The members of the Commission noted that the project is consistent with the applicable zoning
ordinance.
5. Public Comment. Comments from one neighbor has been received, and is attached as Exhibit D.
The neighbor’s concerns focused on overdevelopment of the area, stormwater, and tree removal.
The grading plan shows the creation of defined swales along the access aisle that will channel
water to the right of way. Stormwater management is looked at very carefully on all building
projects. The lots meet or exceed the minimum lot areas, there is no way to prevent future
subdivision if it meets applicable standards, and the trees are not protected and may be removed.
6. Staff Recommendation. Staff recommends approval of the preliminary plat by adopting the
attached resolution.
COUNCIL ACTION REQUESTED
City Council should review the approval resolution and adopt or amend.

RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL
NO. ________________________
Page 2 of 6
3. The Property is zoned LR-1C Single Family Lakeshore Residential District, which
requires a minimum lot area of 0.5 acres and minimum lot width of 100'. The Property
contains a total area of approximately 109,109 s.f. or 2.50 acres and has a width of 140
feet along Shadywood Road (County Road 19).
4. The proposed plat would create a front lot (Lot 2) of 0.75 acres in area and 110 feet in
width along Shadywood Road; and a back lot (Lot 1) of 1.55 acres in area, meeting the
0.75 acre minimum for a back lot in the LR-1C district, and with a defined width of 140
feet.
5. Access to both new lots will be via a single shared driveway Outlot being 30 feet in width
extending westward from Shadywood Road along the southerly boundary of the property.
6. The property lies within 1,000’ of Lake Minnetonka requiring conformance with the
hardcover regulations of the Stormwater Quality Overlay District. The entire property is
within Hardcover Tier 2 allowing 30% impervious surface.
7. A trail easement is proposed along the east side of Lot 2. Because dedication of actual
land for park purposes is not required at this location, a Park Dedication Fee in lieu of
land per City Ordinance would be appropriate.
8. Hennepin County has requested an additional 17 feet of right-of-way for County Road
19 for potential future road and trail purposes. The City per its standard practices will
only require the dedication of a 10’ trail easement along the easterly boundary of Lot 2
and Outlot A as noted above.
9. Both proposed lots will contain suitable area meeting all established setback, hardcover
and lot coverage requirements to allow the construction of single family residences
without the need for variances
CONCLUSIONS, ORDER AND CONDITIONS
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that based upon one or more of the
findings noted above, the City Council of the City of Orono hereby grants Preliminary Plat
Approval for a 2-lot plat per the Preliminary Plat survey/drawing by Mark S. Gronberg of
Gronberg & Associates, Inc. dated February 18, 2019 and attached hereto as Exhibit A, subject to
the following conditions:
1) Lot Standards. Structure setbacks shall adhere to the requirements of the Zoning Code for
front/back lot division.
2) Driveway Access. Driveway access to Lots 1 and 2 shall be a shared driveway within Outlot
A. All other curb cuts or access points onto the adjacent County Road shall be removed.
The Developer shall establish the appropriate shared driveway easements and maintenance

covenants over Outlot A. Developer shall provide copies of approved Hennepin County
permit for driveway access location for Outlot A.
3) Trail Easement. An easement for public trail purposes shall be granted by the Developer
over the easterly 10 feet of the plat.
4) Municipal Sewer and Water. The subject property is located within the Metropolitan Urban
Service Area (MUSA). Sewer and water service is available to the property in Shadywood
Road. Both Lots 1 and 2 shall make connections to the existing sewer and water mains in
Shadywood Road. This plat proposal will be submitted to the Fire Chief/Fire Marshal for
review of whether the remoteness of the building site for Lot 1 will require installation of a
new hydrant within the property. If a hydrant is required, the developer shall be responsible
for the costs of installation of said hydrant.
5) City Utility Connection Charges. The property was fully assessed for sanitary sewer as part
of the 1963-1A sewer projects based on front footage and acreage. The property was charged
for only one unit as part of the 1970-LW-1 project. A second water unit connection charge
will be due prior to Final Plat approval in the amount of $4,240 (2019 Fee Schedule).
6) Metropolitan Council Sewer Availability Charge (SAC). Met Council SAC charges for
both lots will be due at the time of building permit for each respective lot.
7) Stormwater and Drainage Improvements. Final plat approval is subject to Minnehaha
Creek Watershed District (MCWD) approval and permits as required. Final plat approval
shall not be granted until the Developer has provided evidence that all required MCWD
permits have been obtained. Upon building permit issuance the property owner will be
required to comply with individual lot stormwater and erosion control management practices.
8) Drainage and Utility Easements. On the final plat, Drainage and Utility Easements shall
be dedicated to the public 10' along all exterior property lines, and 5' either side of interior
property lines, except such easements shall be increased to accommodate drainage where
required, subject to City staff approval. A Drainage and Utility easement shall be granted
over the entirety of Outlot A. Drainage Easements shall be granted over any stormwater
facilities that may be required by the Minnehaha Creek Watershed District.
9) Development Fees.
A. Park Dedication Fee. The subdivision is subject to the standard Park Dedication Fee
requirement. Because the value of newly created Lot 1 is expected to be in excess of the
threshold value of $69,375.00, the 8% park fee cap of $5,550 per new lot will apply. A Park
Dedication Fee will be due for 1 lot, in the amount of $5,550. (2019 fee schedule)
B. Stormwater and Drainage Trunk Fee. The development is subject to the Stormwater and
Drainage Trunk Fee, established in the 2013 Fee Schedule and revised in 2018, of $3,025.00

per lot for the 1/2-acre zone. The Storm Water Drainage and Trunk Fee is calculated as
follows:
2 lots x $3,025/lot = $6,050.
C. Utility connection fees as described above.
The development will be subject to the Stormwater truck fee, $3,025 per lot.
10) City Engineer Approval. Approval is subject to recommendations of City Engineer Adam
Edwards.
11) Plans and Specifications. The following plans and specifications shall be submitted for
review and approval by the City and other appropriate jurisdictions prior to final plat
approval, to ensure that the proposed plat will accomplish the intended purposes:

Subject: #LA19-000009, Jamison Kohout o/b/o Real Assets, LLC 1645 Shadywood
Rd, Preliminary Plat - Public Hearing
Background
This property was the subject of a preliminary plat action in 2013 (Resolution 6338). The
corresponding final plat was never filed, and the preliminary plat expired in November,
2014. This proposal is identical in layout compared to the original approved preliminary
plat, though the lot sizes are slightly different.
Proposal
The applicant proposes to split the 2.51 acre parcel into two lots and an 30 foot wide
access outlot:
Lot 1. Lot 1 is 67,529 sq. ft. (1.55 acres) and is 140.27 feet wide. Both dimensions
exceed the minimum requirements for a back lot in the LR-1C zoning district (.75 acres
and 100 feet wide). The lot will be served by municipal water and sewer. The lot
includes a number of trees that will be removed to support a building pad. There is an
adequate building pad within the setbacks to accommodate a house in character with
the surrounding area.
Access to lot 1 will be via the access Outlot A and will be shared with Lot 2 for the
eastern 300 feet.
Lot 2. Lot 2 is 32,670 sq ft (0.75 acres) and is 110.21 feet wide. Both dimensions exceed
the requirements of a lot in the LR-1C zoning district (0.5 acres and 100 feet in width.)
Access to this lot will be via a shared driveway off of Shadywood Road. Staff has
Application Summary: The applicant is requesting preliminary plat approval to split
the existing 2.51 acre parcel into two buildable lots and an outlot, in a front lot/ back
lot configuration.
Staff Recommendation: Planning Department Staff recommends approval of the
subdivision, subject to the conditions listed below.

Page 2 of 3
submitted the plans to Hennepin County for their comment, but to date, no comments
have been received. There is adequate area on the lot, within the setbacks, to build a
house in character with the neighborhood.
Access outlot. The only dimensional requirement is the outlot must be 30 feet wide, to
accommodate the driveway, drainage, and snow storage. The outline is 30.06 feet wide,
meeting the requirement.
Applicable Regulations:
Section 82-256 regulations front/back lot divisions and is attached as Exhibit E.
Analysis
The creation of one lot does not require stormwater management. The lot meets all
dimensional requirements.
Staff has requested additional information, (MCWD permit, grading plans) outlined in the
incomplete letter, Exhibit D. Since these items can be accommodated easily, Staff
recommends approval of the subdivision, pending satisfaction of those items. The
Planning Commission may elect to review this additional information prior top moving
the application forward.
Engineer Comments
1. The only comment generated by the City Engineer is the following: On the
Gronberg survey the service lines for lot 1 should be covered with an
easement. The water service line is shown within Lot 2 along CSAH 19. The trail
easement should be fine as long as it is also a utility easement. This will be
incorporated into the conditions.

3. LA19-000009 REAL ASSETS/JAMISON KOHOUT, 1645 SHADYWOOD ROAD,
PRELIMINARY PLAT, 6:52 P.M. – 7:00 P.M.
Jamison Kohout, Applicant, was present.
Barnhart stated the applicant is requesting preliminary plat approval to split the existing 2.51-acre parcel
into two buildable lots and an outlot, in a front lot/back lot configuration. This property was the subject
of a preliminary plat action in 2013 but the corresponding final plat was never filed. The preliminary plat
expired in November 2014. This proposal is identical in layout compared to the original approved
preliminary plat with the exception of the lot sizes.
The applicant proposes to split the 2.51-acre parcel into two lots with a 30-foot wide access outlook.
Lot 1 would consist of 1.55 acres and be 140.27 feet wide. Lot 2 would be 0.75 acres and be 110.21 feet
wide. Both lots exceed the requirements of a lot in the LR-1C zoning district. Access to Lot 1 would be
via Outlot A and Lot 2 would be accessed via a shared driveway off of Shadywood Road. Both properties
will be served with sewer and water.
The City Engineer has pointed out the need for an additional easement over the service lines for Lot 1.
Hennepin County supports the proposed access.
The applicants are not proposing to clear cut the lot but there are some trees in the middle of Lot 1 that
will need to be removed. A Conservation Design was done in preparation for the 2013 application and
recognize that this was a maple/basswood forest. There were no comments that the trees proposed to be
removed be preserved.
Staff has received some comments regarding grading and runoff along Outlot A and that will be reviewed
very closely as part of this application.
Planning Staff recommends approval, subject to the following conditions:
1. Final plat applied for within one year of preliminary plat approval.
2. Easement to the benefit of both lots and the city for access and utilities over all of
Outlot A.
3. Easement to protect utility service lines serving the two parcels.
The Planning Commission had no questions for Staff.
Jamison Kohout, Real Assets, LLC, stated this is basically the same application that was proposed
previously and that his family will be relocating to Orono and they would like to take advantage of the
lots. Kohout stated he was unaware either of the lot sizes had changed.
Chair Thiesse opened the public hearing at 6:54 p.m.
Brian Zjawiony, 1675 Shadywood Road, stated currently runoff from Outlot A is washing out
Shadywood Road and that it needs to be addressed. There are three or four massive potholes that have
developed. Zjawiony indicated he is fine with the rest of the proposal.

Chair Thiesse closed the public hearing at 6:55 p.m.
Lemke commented he hates to see all the trees cut down but there is not much the City can do to prevent
it. Once the grading plan is developed, the owner will have a better idea of how many trees will need to
be removed.
Thiesse asked if this property will have city sewer.
Barnhart indicated it will.
Libby stated since the erosion has been exacerbated by the weather, some type of recommendations from
the City Engineer to help abate the problem would be warranted.
Ressler stated he also does not see a way to avoid cutting down the trees. Ressler indicated he has not
noticed the erosion to be necessarily tied to the curb cut but that it could just be the weather in general and
is something that could be reviewed by the City Engineer.
Barnhart noted the grading plan is always reviewed by the City Engineer to ensure there is no impact to
the neighboring properties or any other issues.
Thiesse asked if there is a requirement that the driveway be paved.
Barnhart stated the City generally sees driveways paved in these situations.
Landgraver stated the preliminary plat is consistent with what was approved last time and he would be in
favor of it.
Lemke moved, Ressler seconded, to recommend approval of Application No. LA19-000009, Real
Assets/Jamison Kohout, 1645 Shadywood Road, Preliminary Plat, subject to the conditions
recommended by Staff. VOTE: Ayes 6, Nays 0.

Commissioners,
After the packet was distributed, the following email was receieved, for Item #3, 1645 Shadywood
Rd.

Subject: Re: Plans
Hi Jeremy,
I completely forgot to respond to this I hope I’m not too late.
Our concerns are the following:
1. Our concern is that property cannot be sub divided further than beyond what has been proposed.
We believe this over development of our community is taking away from everything we love about
Orono. Specifically lot sizes. I shouldn’t be able to look out my window into my neighbors living
room. I don’t wish to live next to a stacked up sub development.
2. I’m concerned and would like the council to address the length of the shared drive and the effect
of flooding out Shadywood road. Currently the run off from this property creates flooding on
Shadywood and has caused potholes to develop on the road surface. We have never had this
problem on Shadywood where the previous driveway was located. Now the current gravel road and
run off is effecting road conditions.
3. Will there be enough room for emergency vehicles to reach and operate safely on the set back
property?
4. Previously I believe there was provision around the amount of trees that could be removed from
the property. I would hate to see a beautiful mature tree lot be bulldozed to squeeze in more
homes.
Thank you,
Brian Zjawiony
1675 Shadywood Rd

A RESOLUTION
APPROVING VARIANCE FROM
MUNICIPAL ZONING CODE SECTION 78-35078-1680
AND
A CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT PURSUANT TO
MUNICIPAL ZONING CODE SECTION 78-328
FILE NO. LA19-000010
WHEREAS, on February 20, 2019, Alexander H. Ware and Amy S Ware, a married
couple (hereinafter the “Applicants”), applied for a conditional use permit and variance from the City
Code for the property addressed 2587 Kelly Avenue and legally described as:
The Southeasterly Half of Lot 4, Block 5, Townsite of Langdon Park including adjacent
vacated 34 feet of Kelly Avenue, Hennepin County, Minnesota (hereinafter the
“Property”);
WHEREAS, the Applicants have made application to the City of Orono for a
variance to Orono Municipal Zoning Code Section 78-350 to allow a setback of 4.3 feet from the
south side lot line where a 2.5’ setback currently exists and 7.5’ is required in order to rebuild a
detached garage in a larger footprint including with a 2nd story; and
WHEREAS, the Applicants have made application to the City of Orono for a
conditional use permit (CUP) to allow plumbing including a bathtub or shower in an accessory
building pursuant to Orono Municipal Zoning Code Section 78-328(7); and
WHEREAS, on March 18, 2019, after published and mailed notice in accordance
with Minnesota Statutes and the City Code, the Planning Commission held a public hearing, at
which time all persons desiring to be heard concerning this application were given the opportunity
to speak thereon; and
WHEREAS, on March 18, 2019, the Planning Commission recommended approval
of the variance and CUP; and
WHEREAS, on April 8, 2019, the City Council reviewed the application and the
recommendations of the Planning Commission and City staff;
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the City Council of Orono, Minnesota
hereby approves the requested variance and CUP as described above based on one or more of
the following findings of fact concerning the Property:
CITY OF ORONO
RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL
NO. ________________________

FINDINGS OF FACT:
1. This application was reviewed as Zoning File #LA19-000007. The analysis contained
within staff memos and the exhibits attached to the aforesaid memos, all minutes from the
above mentioned meetings, and any and all other materials distributed at these meetings
are hereby incorporated by reference.
2. The Property is located in the LR-1B Zoning District.
3. The Property contains 0.7 acres in area and has a defined lot width of 75 feet at the OWHL
and 75 feet at the 75-foot setback.
4. The northwestern side of the property is encumbered with an ingress and egress
easement benefitting the neighbor at 2585 Kelly Avenue.
5. The Property is within Tier 1 and hardcover is limited to 25% according to the Stormwater
Quality Overlay District.
6. Applicant has applied for the following:
a. Side Yard Setback Variance
b. CUP for plumbing in an accessory building
7. In considering this application, the Council has considered the advice and
recommendation of the Planning Commission and the effect of the proposed variance and
CUP upon the health, safety and welfare of the community, existing and anticipated traffic
conditions, light and air, danger of fire, risk to the public safety, and the effect on values
of property in the surrounding area.
PRACTICAL DIFFICULTY ANALYSIS:
1. “Variances shall only be permitted when they are in harmony with the general purposes
and intent of the ordinance . . . .” The requested side yard setback variance is in harmony
with the Ordinance as the proposed garage backs up to the neighbor’s detached garage
and the applicant proposes a drain tile to manage storm water between the buildings. The
neighbors have stated that they will not be impacted by the proposed improvements.
2. “Variances shall only be permitted . . . when the variances are consistent with the
comprehensive plan.” The variance resulting in a permit for construction of an accessory
building/garage in addition to the existing single family residence in a residential zone are
consistent with the Comprehensive Plan.
CITY OF ORONO
RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL
NO. ________________________

3. “Variances may be granted when the applicant for the variance establishes that there are
practical difficulties in complying with the zoning ordinance. ‘Practical difficulties,’ as used in
connection with the granting of a variance, means that:
a. The property owner in question proposes to use the property in a reasonable manner,
however, the proposed use is not permitted by the official controls.
The request to permit construction of building within the side yard setback appears
to be reasonable as the owners of the adjacent properties have stated that they
are not adversely impacted; the homes’ orientations and locations separate the
building from the adjacent neighbors.
b. The plight of the landowner is due to circumstances unique to his property not created
by the landowner.
The location of the existing garage to be replaced, width of the lot, access to the
proposed garage, the orientation and location of the neighboring homes, and the
existing topography are conditions not created by the landowner;
c. The variance, if granted, will not alter the essential character of the locality.”
It does not appear that the requested setback variance for the detached garage
will adversely impact the adjacent property owners or alter the character of the
locality.
4. “Economic considerations alone do not constitute practical difficulties.” Economic
considerations have not been a factor in the variance approval determination.
5. “Practical difficulties also include but are not limited to inadequate access to direct sunlight
for solar energy systems. Variances shall be granted for earth-sheltered construction as
defined in Minn. Stat. § 216C.06, subd. 2, when in harmony with Orono City Code Chapter
78.” This condition is not applicable.
6. “The board or the council may not permit as a variance any use that is not permitted under
Orono City Code Chapter 78 for property in the zone where the affected person's land is
located.” This condition is not applicable, as the use for a detached garage is an allowed
use in the LR-1B District.
7. “The board or council may permit as a variance the temporary use of a one-family dwelling
as a two-family dwelling.” This condition is not applicable.
CITY OF ORONO
RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL
NO. ________________________

8. “The special conditions applying to the structure or land in question are peculiar to such
property or immediately adjoining property.” The Property’s substandard size and
orientation with respect to the lakeshore, and the setback from the lake of the adjacent
homes creates difficulties for the Applicants in redeveloping the Property consistent with
the homes in their neighborhood.
9. “The conditions do not apply generally to other land or structures in the district in which the
land is located.” The location of the existing garage, the access easement on the northwest
side of the Property, the orientation and location of the neighboring homes, width of the
property, the topography and access to the garage are unique conditions affecting the
Property.
10. “The granting of the application is necessary for the preservation and enjoyment of a
substantial property right of the applicant.” The location of the existing garage, the
orientation and location of the neighboring homes, the Property’s width, access easement,
the topography and access to the garage are unique conditions affecting the Property.
11. “The granting of the proposed variance will not in any way impair health, safety, comfort or
morals, or in any other respect be contrary to the intent of this chapter.” The Applicant states
that the variance is necessary to preserve their right to improve the Property.
12. “The granting of such variance will not merely serve as a convenience to the applicant, but
is necessary to alleviate demonstrable difficulty.” The application of the setback
requirements in conjunction with lot’s width and topography limit the options for locating
a conforming building; the granting of the requested variance is necessary to alleviate a
practical difficulty resulting from the location of the existing garage, the orientation and
location of the neighboring homes, the access easement, width of the Property, the
topography and access to the garage.
CUP ANALYSIS
The Council finds that the proposed use at the proposed location is or will be:
1) Consistent with the community management plan; The proposed use is residential in
nature and residential use is consistent with the CMP guiding for this neighborhood.
2) Compliant with the zoning code, including any conditions imposed on specific uses as
required by article V, division 3 of the City Code; The proposed detached garage
improvement including the plumbing fixtures are compliant with the zoning ordinance.

use will be adequately served by existing services and facilities.
4) Provided with an adequate water supply and sewage disposal system; The Property
is served by City sewer and water. Staff believes this criterion is met.
5) Not expected to generate excessive demand for public services at public cost; Staff
believes this criterion is met.
6) Compatible with the surrounding area as the area is used both presently and as it is
planned to be used in the future; The proposed detached garage with

compatible with the surrounding area.
7) Consistent with the character of the surrounding area, unless a change of character
is called for in the community management plan; The detached garage with office
and recreation space including plumbing is residential in visual character and is
expected to be compatible with the surrounding area.
8) Compatible with the character of buildings and site improvements in the surrounding
area, unless a change of character is called for in the community management plan;
The architectural styling of the proposed detached garage with plumbing is expected
to be residential in character and consistent with that of the principal building on the
Property.
9) Not expected to substantially impair the use and enjoyment of the property in the area
or have a materially adverse impact on the property values in the area when
compared to the impairment or impact of generally permitted uses; The use of the
detached garage with office space which includes plumbing is not expected to have
any adverse impacts. No information has been presented to indicate such.
10) Provided with screening and buffering adequate to mitigate undesirable views and
activities likely to disturb surrounding uses; The detached garage will not be
significantly visible when viewed from off the Property on the street side, and the views
from the neighbors will be screened somewhat by existing detached garage on the
property to the east, vegetation and the physical separation. In the opinion of staff,
additional screening or buffering will not be required.
CITY OF ORONO
RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL
NO. ________________________

11) Not create a nuisance which generates smoke, noise, glare, vibration, odors, fumes,
dust, electrical interference, general unsightliness, or other means; The proposed
detached garage with plumbing is not expected to cause any of these undesirable
impacts.
12) Not cause excessive non-residential traffic on residential streets, parking needs that
cause a demonstrable inconvenience to adjoining properties, traffic congestion, or
unsafe access; It is anticipated that the proposed detached garage with plumbing will
not generate any of these undesirable issues.
13) Designed to take into account the natural, scenic, and historic features of the area and
to minimize environmental impact; The proposed detached garage with plumbing
has been visually designed to conform to the residence on the property, and will not
have a negative environmental impact.
14) All exterior lighting shall be so directed so as not to cast glare toward or onto the
public right-of-way or neighboring residential uses or districts; Applicants are hereby
advised of this requirement; and
15) Not detrimental to the public health, public safety, or general welfare. Staff believes
this criterion is met.
16) The council finds that the proposed use of the accessory structure with a bathtub or
shower will not be detrimental to the residential character of the neighborhood.
17) The council finds that the plumbing fixtures proposed are in keeping with the intended
use of the accessory building.
18) The Owners agree to the filing of a covenant in the title of the Property providing that
the accessory building will not be:
a. Used for a home occupation unless specifically approved by the city or if
allowed by this Code.
b. Used as a dwelling unless a guest house conditional use permit is obtained.
c. Rented, leased or otherwise provided for use as a dwelling under any
circumstances.

4. LA19-000010 REHKAMP LARSON ARCHITECTS, 2587 KELLY AVENUE,
VARIANCES AND CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT, 7:00 P.M. – 7:13 P.M.
Jean Rehkamp and Sarah Nymo, Rehkamp Larson Architects, were present.
Curtis stated the applicant is requesting a side setback variance to permit the reconstruction of an existing
one-level, detached garage in a larger footprint at an improved but still substandard side yard setback.
The existing 441 square foot garage is 2.5 feet from the side lot line and is proposed to be removed. The
applicant is proposing a 4.3-foot setback for a new 744 square foot two-story garage. The required
setback for an accessory building less than 1,000 square feet is 7.5 feet.
A detached garage with recreation space is permitted, and a conditional use permit is requested so that a
full bathroom with shower/bathtub can be installed.
Supportive comments from the neighbor most directly impacted were received and have been included in
the Commission’s packet.
Staff recommends approval of the variance subject to conformance with the building official’s comments,
the building code, and the comments of the City Engineer. Staff recommends approval of the conditional
use permit. The property owners would be required to file a covenant agreeing that the structure will not
be used as a dwelling until a permit is obtained allowing use of the building as a dwelling.
The Planning Commission had no questions for Staff.
Rehkamp stated this project was inspired by an existing 900 square foot cottage on the lot that has been
there since the1900s. The cottage is in great shape. The property owners have three children and are
hoping to have them visit this summer. The extra square footage comes from the desire to maintain the
existing cottage and have some extra room for their children.
Nymo noted the cottage already has one existing bathroom and the detached garage with a studio above it
provides a little more room and privacy.
Landgraver asked if the garage will mirror the cottage aesthetically.
Rehkamp indicated the materials will match but that it will have a steeper roofline than the cottage so
some living space can be gained.
Landgraver asked if it is one and a half or two full baths in the garage.
Rehkamp indicated it is two.
Thiesse asked whether the retaining walls are new or existing.
Nymo noted there are existing retaining walls there presently that will be modified. The garage could be
built further into the property, but there is an egress/ingress easement with the adjacent neighbor, and they
would also like to preserve the view of the cottage as you enter the property.
Libby asked what steps will be taken to address the runoff.

6:30 o’clock p.m.
_____________________________________________________________________________________
Rehkamp stated they have not gone to the level of engineering yet but that something will need to be done
since the whole wall of the garage is buckling in.
Lemke asked if the new garage is taller than the existing one.
Rehkamp indicated it is. The lower side of the garage, which is the highest side, would be 24 feet.
Thiesse asked if the City is going to require that this not be living quarters.
Curtis indicated that is part of the covenant.
Thiesse commented it seems like this would be a perfect opportunity for it to become sleeping quarters
and asked what process the applicants would need to go through in order for that to happen.
Curtis stated they would require double the acreage.
Chair Thiesse opened the public hearing at 7:08 p.m.
There were no public comments.
Chair Thiesse closed the public hearing at 7:08 p.m.
Libby stated given the circumstances of this being a familial type of arrangement and with the City
having ample regulations, this structure could easily be converted into a rental. Libby stated there is a
definite housing need for this type of structure.
Thiesse noted they would not be allowed given the acreage.
Curtis noted the applicants are not requesting that either.
Ressler commented he would be in support of it and that the massing is away from the lake.
Landgraver stated the trees will likely need to be cleared out since that is probably what is pushing the
wall in. The new structure will blend in since it will look like the cottage, and the other alternative would
be to tear out the cottage and put in a mansion. Landgraver stated in his view the recommended
conditions by Staff relating to a dwelling and home occupation are good.
Erickson stated he is comforted by the four conditions being recommended, and based on that, he could
support the application.
Lemke commented it is a big mass and will change the visual appearance of the area, but overall it is a
nice improvement to the site and neighborhood.
Libby moved, Landgraver seconded, to recommend approval of Application No. LA19-000010,
Rehkamp Larson Architects, on behalf of Alexander and Amy Ware, 2587 Kelly Avenue, variances
and conditional use permit, subject to staff recommendations. VOTE: Ayes 5, Nays 0.

Melanie—
I hope this note finds you well and enjoying all of this snow. It certainly is good from a Polaris
perspective!
I am writing to let you (and the Planning Commission) know that Alex Ware has shared with us their
plans to remodel their garage that is adjacent to our lot, and we are fully supportive. The new
structure will impact our views at all and will likely improve our property value with a more aesthetic
and useful garage.
Best regards,
Scott

Public Hearing: Side Setback Variance + CUP Plumbing
Background
The applicant is requesting a side setback variance to permit the reconstruction of an existing
one-level, detached garage in a larger footprint at an improved but still substandard side yard
setback. The existing 441 square foot garage is 2.5 feet from the side lot line. The applicant is
proposing a 4.3 foot setback for a new 744 square foot two-story garage. A conditional use permit
(CUP) is requested so that a full bathroom with shower/bathtub can be installed. The applicant’s
narrative describes the request in greater detail.

Applicable Regulations:
Side Yard Setback Variance (Section 78-350)
The existing detached garage is situated 2.5 feet from the southeast side lot line. It is proposed to
be removed and replaced with a larger detached garage with an office and exercise studio above
situated 4.3 feet from the lot line, an improvement of 1.8 feet. The required setback for an
accessory building less than 1,000 square feet in footprint is 7.5 feet for this property (due to the
flexibility based on width).
Plumbing in the Accessory Building CUP (Section 78-328(7))
The proposed detached garage with recreation space is permitted, the applicant’s request to
install a bathroom with full bathing facilities requires a CUP.
Governing Regulation: Variance (Section 78-123)
In reviewing applications for variance, the Planning Commission shall consider the effect of the
proposed variance upon the health, safety and welfare of the community, existing and
anticipated traffic conditions, light and air, danger of fire, risk to the public safety, and the effect
on values of property in the surrounding area. The Planning Commission shall consider
recommending approval for variances from the literal provisions of the Zoning Code in instances
where their strict enforcement would cause practical difficulties because of circumstances unique
to the individual property under consideration, and shall recommend approval only when it is
demonstrated that such actions will be in keeping with the spirit and intent of the Orono Zoning
Code. Economic considerations alone do not constitute practical difficulties. Practical difficulties
also include but are not limited to inadequate access to direct sunlight for solar energy systems.
Variances shall be granted for earth-sheltered construction as defined in Minn. Stat. § 216C.06,
subd. 2, when in harmony with this chapter. The board or the council may not permit as a
variance any use that is not permitted under this chapter for property in the zone where the
affected person's land is located. The board or council may permit as a variance the temporary
use of a one-family dwelling as a two-family dwelling.
According to MN §462.537 Subd. 6(2) variances shall only be permitted when:
FILE #LA19-000010
18 Mar 2019
Page 3 of 6
1. The variance is in harmony with the general intent and purpose of the Ordinance. The
requested side yard setback variance is in harmony with the Ordinance as the proposed
garage backs up to the neighbor’s detached garage and the applicant proposes a drain
tile to manage storm water between the buildings. The neighbors have stated that they
will not be impacted by the proposed improvements.
2. The variance is consistent with the comprehensive plan. The variances resulting in a
permit for construction of an accessory building/garage in addition to the existing
single family residence in a residential zone are consistent with the Comprehensive
Plan.
3. The applicant establishes that there are practical difficulties.
a. The property owner proposes to use the property in a reasonable manner not
permitted by the official controls; The request to permit construction of building
within the side yard setback appears to be reasonable as the owners of the
adjacent properties have stated that they are not adversely impacted; the
homes’ orientations and locations separate the building from the adjacent
neighbors.
b. There are circumstances unique to the property not created by the landowner;
the location of the existing garage to be replaced, width of the lot, access to the
proposed garage, the orientation and location of the neighboring homes, and
the existing topography are conditions not created by the landowner; and
c. The variance will not alter the essential character of the locality. It does not
appear that the requested setback variance for the detached garage will
adversely impact the adjacent property owners or alter the character of the
locality.
Additionally City Code 78-123 provides additional parameters within which a variance may be
granted as follows:
4. Economic considerations alone do not constitute practical difficulties. Economic
considerations have not been a factor in the variance approval determination.
5. Practical difficulties also include but are not limited to inadequate access to direct sunlight
for solar energy systems. Variances shall be granted for earth-sheltered construction as
defined in Minn. Stat. § 216C.06, subd. 2, when in harmony with Orono City Code Chapter
78. This condition is not applicable.
6. The board or the council may not permit as a variance any use that is not permitted under
Orono City Code Chapter 78 for property in the zone where the affected person's land is
located. This condition is not applicable, as the use for a residential garage with office
space is an allowed use in the LR-1B District.
7. The board or council may permit as a variance the temporary use of a one-family dwelling
as a two-family dwelling. This condition is not applicable.
8. The special conditions applying to the structure or land in question are peculiar to such
property or immediately adjoining property. The location of the existing garage, the
access easement on the northwest side of the property , the orientation and location
of the neighboring homes, width of the property, the topography and access to the
garage are unique conditions affecting the subject property.
9. The conditions do not apply generally to other land or structures in the district in which
the land is located. The location of the existing garage, the orientation and location of
the neighboring homes, the property width, the topography and access to the garage
are unique conditions affecting the subject property.
FILE #LA19-000010
18 Mar 2019
Page 4 of 6
10. The granting of the application is necessary for the preservation and enjoyment of a
substantial property right of the applicant. The applicant states that the variance is
necessary to preserve their right to improve their property.
11. The granting of the proposed variance will not in any way impair health, safety, comfort
or morals, or in any other respect be contrary to the intent of this chapter. Granting the
requested variances will not adversely impact health, safety, comfort, or morals; nor
will it be contrary to the intent of the Code.
12. The granting of such variance will not merely serve as a convenience to the applicant, but
is necessary to alleviate demonstrable difficulty. The application of the setback
requirements in conjunction with lot’s width and topography limit the options for
locating a conforming building; the granting of the requested variance is necessary to
alleviate a practical difficulty resulting from the location of the existing garage, the
orientation and location of the neighboring homes, width of the property, the
topography and access to the garage.
The Commission may recommend or Council may impose conditions in granting of variances.
Any conditions imposed must be directly related to and must bear a rough proportionality to the
impact created by the variance. No variance shall be granted or changed beyond the use
permitted in this chapter in the district where such land is located.
Applicable Regulation: Conditional Use Permit (Section 78-916)
The Planning Commission may recommend and the Council may grant a Conditional Use
Permit (CUP) as the use permit was applied for or in modified form. On the basis of the
application and the evidence submitted, the city must find that the proposed use at the
proposed location is or will be:
1) Consistent with the community management plan; The proposed use is residential in
nature and residential use is consistent with the CMP guiding for this
neighborhood.
2) Compliant with the zoning code, including any conditions imposed on specific uses as
required by article V, division 3 of the City Code; The proposed detached garage
improvement including the plumbing fixtures are compliant with the zoning
ordinance.
3) Adequately served by police, fire, roads, and stormwater management; The proposed
use will be adequately served by existing services and facilities.
4) Provided with an adequate water supply and sewage disposal system; The property
is served by City sewer and water. Staff believes this criterion is met.
5) Not expected to generate excessive demand for public services at public cost; Staff
believes this criterion is met.
6) Compatible with the surrounding area as the area is used both presently and as it is
planned to be used in the future; The proposed detached garage with
office/recreation space is residential in character and its use is expected to be
compatible with the surrounding area.
7) Consistent with the character of the surrounding area, unless a change of character
is called for in the community management plan; The detached garage with office
and recreation space including plumbing is residential in visual character and is
expected to be compatible with the surrounding area.
FILE #LA19-000010
18 Mar 2019
Page 5 of 6
8) Compatible with the character of buildings and site improvements in the surrounding
area, unless a change of character is called for in the community management plan;
The architectural styling of the proposed detached garage with plumbing is
expected to be residential in character and consistent with that of the principal
building on the Property.
9) Not expected to substantially impair the use and enjoyment of the property in the
area or have a materially adverse impact on the property values in the area when
compared to the impairment or impact of generally permitted uses; The use of the
detached garage with office space which includes plumbing is not expected to have
any adverse impacts. No information has been presented to indicate such.
10) Provided with screening and buffering adequate to mitigate undesirable views and
activities likely to disturb surrounding uses; The detached garage will not be
significantly visible when viewed from off the Property on the street side, and the
views from the neighbors will be screened somewhat by existing detached garage on
the property to the east, vegetation and the physical separation. In the opinion of
staff, additional screening or buffering will not be required.
11) Not create a nuisance which generates smoke, noise, glare, vibration, odors, fumes,
dust, electrical interference, general unsightliness, or other means; The proposed
detached garage with plumbing is not expected to cause any of these undesirable
impacts.
12) Not cause excessive non-residential traffic on residential streets, parking needs that
cause a demonstrable inconvenience to adjoining properties, traffic congestion, or
unsafe access; It is anticipated that the proposed detached garage with plumbing
will not generate any of these undesirable issues.
13) Designed to take into account the natural, scenic, and historic features of the area
and to minimize environmental impact; The proposed detached garage with
plumbing has been visually designed to conform to the residence on the property,
and will not have a negative environmental impact.
14) All exterior lighting shall be so directed so as not to cast glare toward or onto the
public right-of-way or neighboring residential uses or districts; Applicants are hereby
advised of this requirement; and
15) Not detrimental to the public health, public safety, or general welfare. Staff believes
this criterion is met.
A CUP may be granted subject to such conditions as the Council may prescribe. Further
approval shall be granted only when the following criteria are met:
1. The council finds that the proposed use of the accessory structure with a bathtub or
shower will not be detrimental to the residential character of the neighborhood.
2. The council finds that the plumbing fixtures proposed are in keeping with the
intended use of the accessory building.
3. The accessory building is conforming in location, size and height.
4. The property owner agrees to the filing of a covenant in the title of the property
providing that the accessory building will not be:
a. Used for a home occupation unless specifically approved by the city or if
allowed by this Code.
b. Used as a dwelling unless a guest house conditional use permit is obtained.
c. Rented, leased or otherwise provided for use as a dwelling under any
circumstances.
FILE #LA19-000010
18 Mar 2019
Page 6 of 6
Additionally, a CUP shall remain in effect as long as the conditions imposed by the City
Council are observed, but nothing in this section shall prevent the city from enacting or
amending official controls to change the status of conditional uses.
Practical Difficulties Statement
Applicant has provided supporting documentation regarding the applicable Practical Difficulties
attached as Exhibit B, and should be asked for additional testimony regarding the application.
Public Comments
Public comments have been received and are attached as Exhibit K.
Issues for Consideration
1. Does the Planning Commission find that that the property owner proposes to use the
property in a reasonable manner which is not permitted by an official control?
2. Does the Planning Commission find that the variance(s), if granted, will not alter the
essential character of the neighborhood?
3. Does the Commission find it necessary to impose conditions in order to mitigate the
impacts created by the granting of the requested variance(s)?
4. Are there any other issues or concerns with this application?
Planning Staff Recommendation
Staff recommends approval of the variance subject to conformance with the Building Official’s
attached comments, the Building Code, and the requirements of City Engineer at the time of
building permit review.
Regarding the CUP for plumbing, Staff recommends approval conditioned upon the property
owners’ agreement to the filing of a covenant in the title of the property providing that the
accessory building will not be:

AGENDA ITEM
Prepared By: Reviewed By: Approved By: DJR
1. Purpose. The purpose of this work session item is for Hennepin County Transportation Design
Project Manager, Ryan Allers, P.E. to provide the City Council with an update on the project to plans for
the safety improvement project at the CSAH 15 (Shoreline Drive) and CSAH 19 (Shadywood Road)

Shoreline Drive/Shadywood Rd Public Open
House Summary
Date: February 27, 2019 From 5:00 PM to 7:00 PM
Location: Navarre Fire Station 3770 Shoreline Drive
Orono, Mn
The purpose of the open house was to provide the public information on the upcoming safety
improvement project at the intersection of CSAH 15 (Shoreline Drive) and CSAH 19 (Shadywood
Road) in Orono. This summary is a combination of materials presented and input received from
the public at the open house.
1. Attendance
a. Approximately 50 residents showed up to the meeting and 32 residents signed in for the
Public Open House Meeting (sign-in attached at end of this document)
b. Hennepin County Staff present:
• Amanda Shotton
• Nick Kim
• Ryan Allers
c. City Council Member Richard Crosby
d. City Mayor Dennis Walsh
2. Verbal Comments
a. Most residents appreciated the added safety features to the intersection and were
happy to see the project happening at the intersection.
b. Residents asked if a roundabout was considered and it was. However, it was determined
to not be feasible. The reason behind the roundabout being dismissed was due to cost
and lack of space available to place in a roundabout without having major impacts to
businesses at the intersection.
c. Residents asked about moving driveways to businesses, specifically the entrance to
Lunds from Shoreline Drive to Kelly Avenue. County staff worked with Lunds and the
City of Orono on this option. However, it was dismissed due to the steepness (grade
difference) between the Lunds’ parking lot and Kelly Avenue and moving the access off
Kelly Avenue will introduce more conflicts with delivery vehicles and with pedestrians
walking into the store.
2 of 3
d. Concerns were brought up about this project overlapping with a nearby project in the
area (Metropolitan Council’s Mound Area Interceptor Improvements Project on County
Road 44 in Mound). With the federal funding the County received for the Shoreline
Drive and Shadywood Road intersection project, the County is required to construct the
project in 2019 or risk losing the federal funding for the project.
e. Mayor Dennis Walsh requested the County consider placing a right turn lane for the
westbound to northbound movement. A right turn lane can provide a positive
operational improvement however this project is a safety improvement project and the
federal dollars provided for the project are intended for safety improvements. The
addition of the westbound to northbound right turn lane was not identified in the
funding application and therefore if added to the project it may jeopardize the federal
dollars provided for the project. County staff looked at the traffic and noted during the
peak hours of the day only 30-35 cars make this turn which amounts to 1 car every 2
minutes and this movement the lowest volume turn during the PM peak hour. Another
issue with placing a right turn lane is additional right of way is required to fit in a
properly designed turn lane with adequate width and length and would require the
purchase of property from the Culvers/Holiday service station. The right of way required
for the right turn lane would result in the loss of parking spaces at the Culvers/Holiday
service station. Based on the additional right of way needed and low volume of right
turning traffic the westbound to northbound right turn lane was not included in the
project.
f. One resident asked why Shadywood south of Shoreline Drive is a 40 mph road and north
of Shoreline Drive is 30 mph. The County response was the speeds are set based on the
85th percentile speed drivers are traveling at on the roadway.
g. One resident made note of biking along Shadywood Rd and with the restriping to a 3-
lane configuration (from the current 4 lane) shoulders will be provided for use by
cyclists.
h. One resident wanted the project team to consider providing a concrete semi-circle in
the northeast quadrant of the intersection. The resident was looking for benches or
short wall for people to sit on and want it to be more a of pedestrian realm to help calm
traffic at the intersection. This is an item that is not included in the project as no budget
is available.
i. One resident was looking for motorist yield to pedestrian signing at the free right turns.
These signs will not be included in the project but if this becomes an issue after the
project is completed this can be something the County can address at that time.
j. Residents were also asking about upcoming bridge projects and if the work will result in
closures. County staff told residents go to the specific bridge project website for the
most current information.
k. One resident was unhappy with the removal of the free right for the eastbound to
southbound as they were concerned about the slowing down traffic. The County
3 of 3
response is this project is looking to improve the safety for all users which includes
slowing vehicle traffic down to make things safer for pedestrians and cyclists.

AGENDA ITEM
Prepared By: mcc Reviewed By: J. Barnhart Approved By: DJR
1. Purpose. This application is regarding a variance in order construct an 18’x8’ addition on the
rear of the existing home within the rear setback.
2. MN§15.99 Application Deadline. The application was received and considered to be complete
on February 20. Therefore the 60-Day review period has been extended and will expire on June
20, 2019.
3. Background/ Summary. The applicant is requesting a rear yard setback variance to construct an
18’x 8’ addition resulting in a setback from the rear lot line of approximately 1.2 inches. The
existing hardcover level is 42.9%; the proposed addition will be constructed over an existing
patio. No new hardcover is proposed. Due to the change in the nature of the nonconforming
hardcover, an expansion from non-building to building, a hardcover variance is required. It is not
known when this patio was installed.
Hennepin County Regional Rail Authority is the property owner to the rear. Their comments are
included as Exhibit D. Both staff and the property owner have discussed this project with Jessica
Galatz, the HCRRA representative. Ms. Galatz indicated that the applicant’s agreement to remove
the shed encroachment, the applicant’s changes to the plans in response to Roger Peitso’s
comments help to alleviate their concerns with the application. Additionally, Ms. Galatz indicated
that the proposed grading for the addition and future home maintenance can be accommodated
through temporary access permits.
4. Planning Commission Vote and Comment. On March 18, 2019, the Planning Commission held
a public hearing. Following the public hearing the Planning Commission voted 4 to 2 in favor of a
motion to approve the requested variances.
5. Public Comment. Comments were received and are attached as Exhibit D.
6. Staff Recommendation. Staff does not support the variance reducing the rear yard setback from
7.4 feet to 0.1 feet. In staff’s view, the burden of proof to present practical difficulties to support
that level of variance has not been met.
COUNCIL ACTION REQUESTED
The Council should make a motion directing staff to draft a resolution for approval or provide findings for
a denial resolution to be reviewed and adopted at the April 22nd meeting.

MINUTES OF THE
ORONO PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING
Monday, March 18, 2019
6:30 o’clock p.m.
_____________________________________________________________________________________
5. LA18-000011 JULIE LENSING, 3349 CRYSTAL BAY ROAD, VARIANCES, 7:13 P.M. –
7:38 P.M.
Julie Lensing, Applicant, was present.
Curtis noted the pink line on the survey depicts the property line.
Curtis stated the applicant is requesting a rear yard setback variance in order to construct an 18’ x 8’
addition on the rear of the existing home. Although hardcover is not being added, because the property
exceeds 25 percent hardcover and the proposal involves an expansion from non-building to building
hardcover, a hardcover variance is also required. The lot is nonconforming with respect to area and width.
Staff finds practical difficulties inherent with the size, shape, and location of Crystal Bay Road as well as
with the lake which may justify granting variances allowing the addition. As with other lots on Crystal
Bay Road, in evaluating lot area and hardcover, the square footage of the improved drive lane of Crystal
Bay Road is not included.
The applicant’s existing home is about 38 feet deep. The applicant is requesting a rear yard setback
variance to construct an 18’ x 8’ addition resulting in a setback from the rear lot line of approximately 1.2
inches. The property’s 118 feet of depth is challenging, particularly due to the fact that the 75-foot and
average lake setbacks and the 30-foot rear yard setback nearly overlap. The required setbacks result in a
5-foot deep building envelope.
The proposed 0.1-foot setback poses additional challenges regarding construction, the building code, fire
codes, as well as the logistics of working within the adjacent property owned by the Hennepin County
Regional Rail Authority. There is an existing shed encroaching on HCRRA’s property. The HCRRA
representative has indicated that removal/relocation of the applicant’s existing shed which encroaches on
the HCRRA property may alleviate their concerns about further encroachments should the variance be
approved. Relocation of the shed to a location within the property boundaries would likely require
setback and hardcover variances. If grading is to occur on their property, a permit from HCRRA would
be required.
The existing hardcover level is 42.9 percent. The addition is proposed to be constructed over an existing
patio. No new hardcover is proposed. Due to the change in the nature of the nonconforming hardcover,
an expansion from non-building to building, a hardcover variance is required.
If the variance is approved, adjustments to the building plans are necessary, specifically to the gutters,
roof, eaves and foundation, which the architect has indicated could be accomplished.
Staff does not support the variance reducing the rear yard variance from 7.4 feet to 0.1 feet. If the
Planning Commission supports the variance, Staff would add the following to the record: The proposed
setback of 1.2 inches does not account for the need of the homeowners’ access around the home for
maintenance without trespassing on the HCRRA property. Permitting requirements should be complied
with.
Staff finds the hardcover variance to be reasonable considering the practical difficulties affecting the
property.
MINUTES OF THE
ORONO PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING
Monday, March 18, 2019
6:30 o’clock p.m.
_____________________________________________________________________________________
The Commission should review the plans regarding the rear yard setback. The applicant did receive a
supportive comment from the neighbor to the east.
The aerial photo reflects a play structure that is no longer there but the shed is still there.
Curtis displayed the first floor and second floor house plans and elevation views. The plans would be
adjusted in conformance with the architect’s notes and building official’s comments.
Thiesse asked if the applicant will obtain an easement or a permit for the grading.
Curtis indicated the applicant will need to obtain that permitting but she is not aware if an easement is
required.
Thiesse noted Staff has recommended personal access around the building.
Curtis stated that was to alleviate Staff’s concerns with maintaining the structure. Curtis noted this is not
the only tight setback that exists in this area.
Libby asked for clarification on the location of the shed.
Curtis indicated it is located entirely within the Rail Authority’s property and the shed is not in a highly
observed area. There are also a number of other encroachments on the Rail Authority’s property by other
property owners.
Landgraver noted the neighbors are essentially in the same position with the tight setbacks.
Curtis displayed an aerial photograph of the area.
Landgraver commented those tight setbacks are critical to his interpretation of this request.
Libby noted the City Engineer’s comments make it fairly clear that if any excavation needs to be done, it
would require written permission from the Rail Authority. Libby suggested the homeowner do some due
diligence on how that encroachment may impact their title in reselling the property.
Lemke asked if there is a jog in the property line.
Curtis indicated she does not know why it is that way but that there are several jogs in that area that do
not make a lot of sense.
Lemke stated he was wondering whether that was purchased from the Rail Authority at some point.
Julie Lensing, Applicant, stated she appreciates the opportunity to speak about what she would like to do.
Lensing indicated she also was curious about the jog in the property line and she was told that many years
ago the Rail Authority offered the residents the opportunity to purchase some of the land, which is why
that is a funny shape.
Lemke asked if that is still available.
MINUTES OF THE
ORONO PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING

6:30 o’clock p.m.
_____________________________________________________________________________________
Lensing indicated she does not know that. There are some significant areas of concern with the existing
house and that the hope is the addition will improve the functionality. The lot makes the options very
limiting and in her view this is the best option.
Lensing noted currently her laundry room is in the garage and that she needs to bring laundry baskets
down one whole flight of stairs and then open and close the garage entry door as well as the laundry room
door. This addition would allow the laundry room to be located on the main floor level. In addition, the
master bedroom has a very small closet and the addition would allow a small walk-in closet. Between her
and her fiancé, they have six children, and they would like to put some bunkbeds on the upper floor to
accommodate some of the children when they visit.
Lensing indicated she has worked very closely with the Hennepin County Rail Association and the
building code inspector. With regard to the encroachment, there is a 5’ x 5’ shed that was there when the
property was purchased. Lensing indicated she is willing to remove that. Further, Jessica from the Rail
Authority noted that it appears there is currently a shed encroachment on HCRRA’s property adjacent to
3339 Crystal Bay Road and that remedying this encroachment would mitigate their concern about the
0-foot setback clearance.
Lensing noted the building official had listed four bullet points on one of the attachments. The architect
has stated he will change the plans so these four requirements will be met.
Chair Thiesse opened the public hearing at 7:28 p.m.
There were no public comments.
Chair Thiesse closed the public hearing at 7:28 p.m.
Thiesse asked if the basement or foundation level will be two feet shorter and the house itself will
cantilever over.
Curtis stated that is what the architect is indicating can be done.
Ressler stated the biggest issue he is struggling with is going closer to the property line and that he is
undecided on the addition as a whole. Ressler stated it is a small house on a small lot but he can see the
merits of the addition.
Thiesse asked if the City has an obligation to provide room for a person to stay on their property to
perform maintenance.
Landgraver noted the City decided it was okay on the buffer zone.
Landgraver stated when you first look at it, the reaction is no way, because the homeowner cannot
maintain their addition without trespassing on somebody else’s property. On a relative basis, it looks like
a little bit of a buffer was added in when they sold them the land, but that is also right on the edge of the
lot. Overall, for the neighborhood, it does not seem as egregious and the applicant is not asking for
something that is radically different from the neighbors. Invariably, however, the neighbor on the left is
going to rebuild and they will ask for the same thing. Given the number of homes in the neighborhood
that are in a similar situation, he is predisposed to approving it.
MINUTES OF THE
ORONO PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING
Monday, March 18, 2019
6:30 o’clock p.m.
_____________________________________________________________________________________
Lemke stated he is in agreement with Commissioner Landgraver and at first he felt the same way with
how it didn’t make any sense, but in looking at the practical difficulties and the use of the home, it makes
sense.
Erickson stated the question is whether the proposed use is reasonable, which puts the Planning
Commission in the position of needing to decide if a one-inch setback is reasonable. A one-inch setback
has not been necessary for anyone else. Other nearby properties have gotten variances, but they have
been five or six-foot variances. Erickson stated with a one-inch setback, they cannot do anything to the
house without going on the neighbor’s property and there would not even be room for a fence between the
house and the trail. Erickson stated he has a problem with that but he has not figured a way around it.
Thiesse noted it is difficult to construct a bunk room less than seven feet. and they only have eight feet.
Erickson commented he would encourage the applicant to try to purchase some more land.
Thiesse stated an easement would also be an option.
Libby stated he was encouraged that the applicant has had an ongoing dialogue with the Rail Authority
since that would allow exploration of those two options and that he was impressed by the architect’s idea
of the cantilever to accommodate the odd nature of what is being proposed. Removal of the shed has
alleviated the concerns with the shed.
Libby commented he just does not know, since it is so out of the ordinary and there are other factors in
play, whether it should go right up to the edge. The property owner will have to have some very clearly
defined permissions from the Rail Authority to maintain that side of the house, and as long as that occurs,
he would not have a problem with it.
Thiess recommended the applicant speak with the Rail Authority about the easement since the property
owner cannot access the back of the house without crossing the property line.
Landgraver stated given the other landscaping and structures by the neighbors, the Rail Authority
probably is in agreement.
Ressler stated without redesigning it himself, the architect could perhaps bring it back to seven feet so
there is some room there.
Lemke moved to recommend approval of Application No. LA18-000011, Julie Lensing, 3349
Crystal Bay Road as proposed, granting of a hardcover variance and a rear yard setback variance,
subject to Staff recommendations.
Landgraver stated the proposed setback of 1.2 inches does not account for the homeowner’s need for
access without trespassing on HCRRA property.
Curtis indicated Staff will follow up with the HCRRA representative and will assist the applicant with the
maintenance access.
Landgraver seconded. VOTE: Ayes 4, Nays 2, Erickson and Ressler Opposed.

1. The proposed grading plan depicts grading outside of the subject property. The grading is
on Railroad property. The applicant will need permission from the railroad authority for
those encroachments.

Melanie,
I have completed a review of the documents provided and these are my comments:
1.No portion of the structure can be built across the property line. This would include, roof,
gutters, eaves, overhangs, footings, foundation, foundation drainage system, walls,
cantilever’s of any sort, siding or any architectural features or building systems used in
construction.
2.With the type of construction systems shown in the proposed plans the footings shall be a
minimum 1 foot from the property line because of the drainage system that is required per
Code section R405 of the 2015 Minnesota Residential Building Code around the exterior of
the foundation at the bottom level of the footings.
3.Per item #2. The result would be the walls of the structure would be at least 1.5 feet from
the property line if constructed as shown.
4.No excavation across the property line can be conducted without express written permission
of the Railroad Authority.
Thanks,

Thank you for letting us know about the variance application. The Hennepin County Regional
Railroad Authority’s (HCRRA’s) practice is to oppose requests for zero-foot setback variances
adjacent to its property as zero-foot setbacks do not allow property owners to maintain their
property without encroaching onto public land.
It appears there is currently a shed encroachment on HCRRA’s right of way adjacent to 3349 Crystal
Bay Road. Remedy of this encroachment would mitigate our concern about the zero-foot setback
variance.
It is my understanding that the city has already required the proposed roof overhang to be revised.
This is encouraging as roof drainage onto the public property would be undesirable. The property
owner may contact HCRRA directly to obtain a permit for the proposed grading shown on their
survey.
Please feel free to contact me directly if we should discuss more. Thank you.

Re: Addition to the Julie Lensing Residence
Dear Sirs/Madam,
Julie Lensing, my client, has asked that I provide you with a statement regarding the property line setback of her home’s proposed
addition.
I will be able to adjust my drawings so that the south/rear wall of the addition’s foundation will be moved from its currently
drawn position to a new position that is 1’-6” farther north, reducing the current 7’-10” dimension to 6’-4”. The first floor
and second floor rear wall locations will reduce by 4” to avoid wall and roof construction materials from overhanging the
property line. The structural system of the addition will be adjusted to accommodate a 1’-2” cantilever between the
foundation wall and the first floor wall.
Sincerely,
Richard Groh

Variances
Public Hearing
Background
The applicant is requesting rear yard setback variance in order construct an 18’x8’ addition on
the rear of the existing home. Although hardcover is not being added, because the property
exceeds 25% hardcover and the proposal involves an expansion from non-building to building
hardcover, a hardcover variance is also required. The lot is nonconforming with respect to area
and width.

Applicable Regulations:
Rear Yard Setback Variance (Section 78-350)
The applicant’s existing home is about 38 feet deep; she is requesting a rear yard setback
variance to construct an 18’x 8’ addition resulting in a setback from the rear lot line of
approximately 1.2 inches. The property’s ±118 feet of depth is challenging, particularly due to
fact that the 75-foot and average lake setbacks; and the 30-foot rear yard setback nearly
overlap. The required setbacks result in a 5 foot deep building envelope.
The proposed 0.1 foot setback poses additional challenges regarding construction, the building
code, fire codes, as well as the logistics of working within the adjacent property owned by the
Hennepin County Regional Rail Authority (HCRRA). Included within Exhibit G are comments from
the City’s Engineer, Building Official, and the rear neighbor HCRAA. Resident neighbor
comments are also attached as Exhibit H.
Hardcover Variances (Sections 78-1700)
The existing hardcover level is 42.9%; the addition is proposed to be constructed over an
existing patio. No new hardcover is proposed. Due to the change in the nature of the
nonconforming hardcover, an expansion from non-building to building, a hardcover variance is
required.
Governing Regulation: Variance (Section 78-123)
In reviewing applications for variance, the Planning Commission shall consider the effect of the
proposed variance upon the health, safety and welfare of the community, existing and
FILE # LA19-000011
18 March 2019
Page 3 of 6
anticipated traffic conditions, light and air, danger of fire, risk to the public safety, and the effect
on values of property in the surrounding area. The Planning Commission shall consider
recommending approval for variances from the literal provisions of the Zoning Code in instances
where their strict enforcement would cause practical difficulties because of circumstances unique
to the individual property under consideration, and shall recommend approval only when it is
demonstrated that such actions will be in keeping with the spirit and intent of the Orono Zoning
Code. Economic considerations alone do not constitute practical difficulties. Practical difficulties
also include but are not limited to inadequate access to direct sunlight for solar energy systems.
Variances shall be granted for earth-sheltered construction as defined in Minn. Stat. § 216C.06,
subd. 2, when in harmony with this chapter. The board or the council may not permit as a
variance any use that is not permitted under this chapter for property in the zone where the
affected person's land is located. The board or council may permit as a variance the temporary
use of a one-family dwelling as a two-family dwelling.
According to MN §462.537 Subd. 6(2) variances shall only be permitted when:
1. The variance is in harmony with the general intent and purpose of the Ordinance. The
small lot includes difficulties resulting from its small size and width, and proximity to
the lake and the trail property to the rear. The lot is also challenged by Crystal Bay Road
which runs through the lake yard. The Planning Commission should discuss whether
the addition, establishing a 1.2 inch setback, is in harmony with the intent and purpose
of the Ordinance.
2. The variance is consistent with the comprehensive plan. The use of the property is
consistent with the Comprehensive Plan.
3. The applicant establishes that there are practical difficulties.
a. The property owner proposes to use the property in a reasonable manner not
permitted by the official controls; The request to permit construction of an
addition to the home on the substandard lot, within the rear yard setback, may
be somewhat reasonable as the property’s reduced size and orientation with
respect to the lakeshore, Crystal Bay Road, and adjacent properties creates
difficulties. However the project should not adversely impact adjacent
properties, and should conform to the building code. A 1.2 inch rear yard
setback does not seem reasonable.
b. There are circumstances unique to the property not created by the landowner;
The uniquely small lot size, its location with respect to the lake and roadway,
and required setbacks prevent a residential footprint consistent with the
neighborhood. The existing/proposed hardcover level is unique to the property;
and
c. The variance will not alter the essential character of the locality. The variances
are requested in order to permit construction of a home designed to fit the
character of the neighborhood according to the submitted information.
Additionally City Code 78-123 provides additional parameters within which a variance may be
granted as follows:
4. Economic considerations alone do not constitute practical difficulties. Economic
considerations have not been a factor in the variance approval determination.
5. Practical difficulties also include but are not limited to inadequate access to direct sunlight
for solar energy systems. Variances shall be granted for earth-sheltered construction as
defined in Minn. Stat. § 216C.06, subd. 2, when in harmony with Orono City Code Chapter
78. This condition is not applicable.
FILE # LA19-000011
18 March 2019
Page 4 of 6
6. The board or the council may not permit as a variance any use that is not permitted under
Orono City Code Chapter 78 for property in the zone where the affected person's land is
located. This condition is not applicable, as the use for a residence is an allowed use in
the LR-1C District.
7. The board or council may permit as a variance the temporary use of a one-family dwelling
as a two-family dwelling. This condition is not applicable.
8. The special conditions applying to the structure or land in question are peculiar to such
property or immediately adjoining property. The property’s substandard size and
setback with respect to the lakeshore, Crystal Bay Road, and adjacent properties create
difficulties which also apply to many of the properties in the same neighborhood. This
substandard size appears to support a variance, but not a 28.8 foot reduction of the rear
yard setback.
9. The conditions do not apply generally to other land or structures in the district in which
the land is located. The property’s substandard size and setback with respect to the
lakeshore, Crystal Bay Road, and adjacent properties create difficulties which also apply
to many of the properties in the same neighborhood. See notes below.
10. The granting of the application is necessary for the preservation and enjoyment of a
substantial property right of the applicant. The use of the property for a single family
residence is the right of the property owner. The desire to expand is not a property
right. Granting rear yard setback and hardcover variances would be necessary for the
preservation of the property right of the applicant.
11. The granting of the proposed variance will not in any way impair health, safety, comfort
or morals, or in any other respect be contrary to the intent of this chapter. Granting rear
yard setback and hardcover variances in this unique situation is not contrary to the
intent of the zoning chapter, though the amount of reduction may be.
12. The granting of such variance will not merely serve as a convenience to the applicant, but
is necessary to alleviate demonstrable difficulty. The variances are necessary as the
property has considerable practical difficulties affecting development.
The Commission may recommend or Council may impose conditions in granting of variances.
Any conditions imposed must be directly related to and must bear a rough proportionality to the
impact created by the variance. No variance shall be granted or changed beyond the use
permitted in this chapter in the district where such land is located.
Practical Difficulties Statement
Applicant has provided supporting documentation regarding the applicable Practical Difficulties
attached as Exhibit B, and should be asked for additional testimony regarding the application.
Practical Difficulties Analysis
Staff finds practical difficulties inherent to the size, shape, and location of the roadway and the
lake affecting the property which may justify granting variances allowing the addition. Most lots
along Crystal Bay Road are non-conforming as to size and width and most lots have received
variances to develop. The need for variances is fairly well established by the standards above.
However, what reduction of setback is appropriate, and what level of development is too much
for the lot and the neighborhood?
Between 3405 and 3315 Crystal Bay Road (these addresses are accessed via, and are impacted by,
the unplatted road) the smallest rear yard setbacks are 5, 6, 6.4, 7.4, and 7.5 feet. This variance,
if approved, would in essence negate any rear yard setback.
FILE # LA19-000011
18 March 2019
Page 5 of 6
The variance process allows for reasonable development of properties that are unique and that
can demonstrate a practical difficulty.
Engineer Comments
The City Engineer has not reviewed the proposed plan. A thorough review will be conducted at
the time of building permit.
Public Comments
To date, no public comments have been received.
Issues for Consideration
1. Does the Planning Commission find that that the property owner proposes to use the
property in a reasonable manner which is not permitted by an official control?
2. Does the Planning Commission find that the variance(s), if granted, will not alter the
essential character of the neighborhood?
3. Does the Commission find it necessary to impose conditions in order to mitigate the
impacts created by the granting of the requested variance(s)?
4. Are there any other issues or concerns with this application?
Planning Staff Recommendation
Staff does not support the variance reducing the rear yard setback from 7.4 feet to 0.1 feet. In
staff’s view, the burden of proof to present practical difficulties to support that level of variance
has not been met.
If the Planning Commission supports a variance, staff adds the following to the record: The
proposed setback of 1.2 inches does not account for the need of the homeowner access around
the home for maintenance without trespassing on the HCRRA property.
Please read the comments from the City Engineer, Building Official and Ms. Galatz from HCRRA
which are included. The HCRRA representative provided comments and has indicated that a
permit is required for the grading shown on the HCRRA property. She has also indicated that
removal/relocation of the applicant’s existing shed which encroaches on the HCRRA property may
alleviate their concerns about further encroachments should the variance be approved.
Relocation of the shed to a location within the property boundaries would likely require setback
and hardcover variances. The planning commission should discuss this shed with the applicant.
According to Building Official Roger Peitso’s comments, adjustments to the building plans may be
necessary if the planning commission finds justification for variance approval. Specifically,
adjustments to the roof, eaves, gutters, and foundation.
Staff recommends the building plans be adjusted to meet the requirements outlined by the
Building Official. Staff finds the hardcover variance request to be reasonable considering the
practical difficulties affecting the property. The planning commission should review the plans
and evaluate the practical difficulty criteria regarding the rear yard setback and make a
recommendation regarding the setback variance.
