Soderman 975 Wildhurst Trail Mound, MN 55364 RE: Construction without a Permit at 975 Wildhurst Trail PID: 07-117-23-12-0002 To date we have not received a response from you pertaining to our letter date December 16, 2011 regarding the deck and stair addition without proper approvals. This letter is to notify you your property remains in violation of City Code Section 86-37; construction without a permit and 78-1288 hardcover/structure within 75' of the OHWL. As stated in our December 16, 2011, if you have documentation (photographs, survey, etc.) which support the existence of a grade-level deck, please provide this to us so we may review, confirm and process a permit for an in-kind replacement. The new deck/stair must be removed as it is new structure in an unpermitted location. Should you wish to pursue a setback and hardcover variance for the stair (and deck if necessary) please contact Christine Mattson, Planning Assistant to discuss the variance process. Please be advised, a revised survey reflecting current and proposed conditions will be required. In order to bring your property into compliance submit documentation supporting the existing grade-level deck, along with a building permit application for replacement in-kind. If such documentation does not exist, contact Christine Mattson at 952-249-4620 to discuss the variance process or remove the deck and stair. Please contact us on or before March 6, 2012 to resolve these outstanding issues and to avoid this matter being forwarded to our attorney. Thank you for your attention to this matter. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to call me at 952.249.4600.
