Backes 3416 Jidana Lane �linnetonka, t�N 55343 Dear Island Landowner : The purpose of this letter is to provide you cvith information regarding the recent zoninj changes on Big Island , and how these changes may affect your property. The new RS Seasonal Recreational zoning regulations were established by City Council adoption of Ordinance �f246 on December 30 , 1982 . This action also ended the development moratorium that had been in effect since November 9 , 1981 . A summary of the ordinance is attached . If you are interested , a complete text of the ordinance is also available for a nominal charge of $3 . 00 to defer printing and mailing costs . Your property is identified in the ordinance by the Record Lot Number shown above and on �he attached blue page . This identification is part of a special section that inventories lot by lot the ownedship patterns and existfng uses of island propert_y . Based on this record , the ordinance then "brandfathers" building rights for these Record Lots by making them eligible for lot area variances . '�his means that for the first time even if your lot is less than five acres (or two acres under the previous ordinance) that you may now build a new seasonal cabin , or if you already have a cabin� that it may continue to be used , impraved , added-onto or replaced with a new cabin, subject to building permits and setback regulations , etc . , but •�aithout questioning its use for building purposes , and without requiring any special City Council review. In order for you to automatically receive the benefits of the lot area variance , you should review and complete the following before July 1 , 1983 : 1 . Please verify the Record Lot information on the attached blue page and notify the City if there is a problem or a change .

If the Record Lot information is complete , please sign, have notarized and return the white Variance Resolution . State law requires that all zoning variances be recorded with the County Recorder in resolution form. Returning this resolution is optional , but if you choose not to do so , you may be required to pay a fee and file a formal variance application in the future if you ever plan to do any building on the property . There is no fee for having this automatic variance recorded at this time . 3 . If your Record Lot consists of two or more separate tax parcels , a green form for requesting a combined assessment is enclosed . Please sign and return this to the City to allow your tax records to be changed into one parcel consistent with the zoning and to assure the most favorable tax rate possible . 4 . A conditional use permit issued by the City Council is required for certain land uses in the RS District , including the following residential uses : a) If you use or have used your cabin FOR MORE THAN 180 DAYS/YEAR. b) If you have MORE THAN ONE CABIN on your property . R�fer to the enclosed yellow sheet for a definition of these uses including a description of when a special permit is or is not required . If you wish to apply for a permit , mark the yellow page and return it to the City . We will send you the appropriate application form by return mail . A postage-paid envelope is enclosed for your use in returning the above forms to the City . If you have any questions about this , please call Alan Olson or Jeanne Mabusth at 473-7357 . On behalf of the City Council and Planning Commission , I want to take this opportunity to thank each and everyone of you whose interest and participation this past year has helped so much in the completion of this planning process . I have certainly enjoyed meeting all of you and learning so much about your island . I hope this last step can be kept as simple as possible so that your property rights can be correctly recorded for your future benefit . Sincerely , � 'H. � ��^ � ' . A an P.
