A RESOLUTION GRANTING VARIANCES
TO MUNICIPAL ZONING CODE SECTION 10.24,
SUBDIVISION 5 (B)AND SECTION 10.55,
SUBDIVISION 8
FILE NO. 02-2745
WHEREAS,Ilona Peterson and Kenneth Peterson,(hereinafter"the applicants")are
owners of the property located at 1074 Wildhurst Trail within the City of Orono (hereinafter "the
City") and legally described as follows:
Lot 4, Block 1, Wildhurst Estates, Hennepin County, Minnesota (hereinafter "the
property"); and
WHEREAS, the applicants have applied for variances to Municipal Zoning Code
Section 10.24, Subdivision 5 (B) to permit construction of an attached garage 17.76' to the street
property line where 35' is required, and to permit construction on a property less than one acre in
size; and to Section 10.55, Subdivision 8 to permit land alteration and construction of a garage and

Commission held a public hearing on February 19, 2002 and March 18, 2002, at which time all
persons desiring to be heard concerning this application were given the opportunity to speak thereon.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of Orono,
Minnesota:
FINDINGS
1. This application was reviewed as Zoning File #02-2745.
2. The property is located in the LR-1B, Single Family Lakeshore Residential Zoning
District where 1 acre is the minimum lot size and 140 feet is the minimum lot width.

3. The Planning Commission reviewed the application for variances and recommended
approval by a vote of 7 to 0 based on the following findings and hardships:
A. The property met all code requirements in 1991 and was considered a
buildable lot at that time. The new wetland boundary as determined by
Aquatic EcoSolutions, Inc., Golden Valley, Minnesota, shows a larger
wetland basin than what was thought to be located on the property.
B. The larger wetland basin causes two development issues for the property
owners. The wetland basin's size has limited the building envelope to a
small corner of the property. The area available to develop is then
substantially reduced by the required 35'setback to the back property line and
side yard setback.
C. The area of the wetland is larger than first believed,the actual area of the lot
is reduced in size to less than one acre. The City of Orono did find in 1991
that the area of the property was 1 acre. The change to the wetland
determination method has changed the defined lot area of the property,as has
the ability to credit wetland as buildable area. The defined lot area is now
approximately 0.8 acre.
D. The location of the sewer service 10' from the south property line shifts the
building location an additional 10' to the north, which causes the wetland
buffer impact.
E. The property owners have identified areas on the property to mitigate a total
of 2,180 s.f.of wetland on the property to compensate for the wetlands lost to
fill and structures.
F. The 17.76' setback to the street property line is justified by the fact the
wetland area restricts any development further north and east on the property.
4. The City Council finds that the conditions existing on this property are peculiar to it and
do not apply generally to other property in this zoning district;that granting the variances
will not adversely affect traffic conditions, light, air, nor pose a fire hazard or other
danger to neighboring property; would not merely serve as a convenience to the
applicants,but is necessary to alleviate a demonstrable hardship or difficulty;is necessary
to preserve a substantial property right of the applicants; and would be in keeping with
the spirit and intent of the Zoning Code and Comprehensive Plan of the City.
