DATE: November 13, 1980
SUBJECT: #580 Robert White, 320 Woodhill Road - PRELIMINARY SUBDIVISION
The survey dated July 22, 1980 has realigned the mutual lot line so
that Lot I's septic drainfield is contained within its boundaries.
The applicant has located the' proposed house on Lot 2. Once again,
Mr. White will require a rear yard setback variance. I have enclosed
the minutes of October 24, 1977 to review the hardships and Council's
recommendation to approve the variance:
If preliminary approval is recommended, I would suggest the following
findings and conditions:
Findings
1. Adequate area for two lot subdivision in the RR-IB Zoning District.
2. Septic area and design have been approved by the On-Site Manager
for Lot 2 - in addition there is adequate room for expansion of
alternate site on Lot 1.
3. Approve variance of 20* for rear yard setback for house on Lot 2.
a) One suitable building site for Lot 2
b) Area is 6-*- acres, but property is narrow
c) Topography - steep slopes on north west
d) Location of existing driveway
e) Best location to protect value of existing structure
Conditions
1.
2.
3.
Lot 2 grant access and utility easements in favor of Lot 1.
Existing curb cut and driveway to serve both lots.
Park dedication fee of $200.00

REGULAR MEETING OP THE ORONO COUNCIL, OCTOBER 24, 1977 Page 22 • \
nf, Alan Olson, Assistant Building ( Zoning
Administrator, entered into the.record the follow
ing letter from Robert C. Gaede, architect, date^
October 6, 1977, which states:
lIANCE
Noodhill Road
*275
Robert l^ite
"Robert F. Ifhite has commissioned this office to
develop preliminary site planning and designs for
a structure he contemplates on a proposed outlet
of his present residence. You have requested a
written opinion supporting a code variance in the
placement of said structure. We understand he
must prove "hardship" for this to be granted.
After on-site inspection, we determined the
property only marginal to bear the several hundred
thousand dollar structure contemplated. The logic
for this opinion follows:
1. There is one suitable location for a structure:
Southwest portion is too narrow where it
abuts Woodhill Road.
Severe grades on the northwest portion would
affect building costs substantially and
adversely.
Eastern portion's view is to Woodhill Country
Cltib dump ground, thus unsuitable.
Percolation tests indicate substantial land
usage required on east side, as well, to
accommodate drain field within code due to
extensive clay.
Location of present driveway is highly
restrictive. Contour of adjacent land prohibits
moving it, in addition to affecting aesthetics
of present residence.
The appropriate building site is at narrowest "neck"
of the property, coincidentally its apex. We deem
it marginal.
c.
d.
Contemplated structure will be between 35-50
feet wide, west facing and in excess of 100
feet long, south facing.
The fifty foot setback requirement, plus structure,
plus access drive leaves virtually no yard
capability or buffer zone.
We viewed property prior to seasonal foliage.
Proposed structure is dangerously close,
aesthetically, to present house. Extreme care
is necessary to prevent the two structures
clashing — every possible foot that can separate
them is vital. ^
Value* of present house could be severe..y affected
if new one is "in its lap"'.
(Continued)
RBGUIAR MEETING OF THE ORONO COIJIICIL, OCTOBER 24, 1977

Page 23
PdSr this reasonf we have advised our client not to
utilize said site unless a variance is obtained.
From his standpoint, we consider this a most valid
hardship as he is anxious to remain at this location.
We %rould prefer a 20 foot setback, ideally.
VARIANCE
320 Woodhill Road

He shall be pleased to respond in greater detail
and with attendant graphics if necessary, although
we are hopeful such expense may be spared our client

Mr. Alan Olson, Assistant Building & Zoning
Administrator, entered into the record the
following information for a proposed private
road name for Van Eeckhout Subdivision, 400 Old
Crystal Bay Road, dated October 19, 1977, which
states:
PRIVATE ROAD NAME
400 Old Crystal Bay Road
The developers and property owners of this property
have requested the City to approve a separate name
for this private road. On future subdivisions,
staff would like to have this agreed upon prior to
final approval, but in some past divisions, the
matter of naming the access was not addressed.
In this case, seven names were submitted as listed
on the attached letter. Names 1, 3 a 7 have been
rejected by staff due to similarities with existing
street names. The final choice is left to the
Council's discretion.

I'UBJECT: #545 Bruce Hepp, 2605 West Lafayette Road - SUBDIVISION
At the last meeting. Planning Commission advised the applicant that they
would be ready to act on his subdivision application at the November 17th
meeting. The commission approved the lagoon area for ripari»»'‘ t.
Riparian access would be granted through a joint use dock e’'- « i.at
and access via a 10' walkway easement granted by lakeshore xv. ri* favor
of non-lakeshore lot. Staff has some concern with this type of approach.
With this method the riparian rights are not designated on the plat and
its existence only appears as a condition of approval in the final
resolution. In future dealings, how would the administrative staff
recognize such arrangements? Might this not encourage other property
owners to employ the same vehicle and create such uses without formal
subdivision approval? A riparian outlot that would house the joint use
dock area would be clearly designated and in addition require City
approval through subdivision regulations. If the subdivision is to be
approved the following findings and conditions should be considered.
Findings:
1. Adequate area for 2 lot subdivision in the LR-IB Zoning District
Lot 1-1.6 acres; Lot 2-1 acre
2. Sufficient sewer and water capacity for Lot 2.
3. Both lots qualify for riparian rights - lagoon area to be protected;
access via main lake.
4.Adequate area of pvtblic street providing access for three lots based
on following hardships:
a) cul-de-sac lot has limited frontage on public street.
b) City encouraged third user of access by creating access easement
for Hannah lot - the repercussions of agreeing to this easement
were not made clear to original owner and future buyer (Hepp).
Conditions:
1.Creation of riparian outlot to house joint dock - maximum of two
boats either stored, moored or docked for each lot.
2.
3.
Walkway easement created in favor of Lot 2 by Lot 1.
Open space easement over lagoon area.
4. Driveway and utility easement created in favor of Lot 1 by Lot 2.

Coninon access for all three lots.
Proposed house must be setback a minimum of 10* from each driveway
easement - 20* wide easement serving Lots 1 t 2 - 14* wide easement
serving Hannah property.
8. All structures must be setback 75* from shoreline of lagoon.
If denied, the following findings should be considered;
1. Insufficient footage on public street to allow for a third user
of existing access.
2. No apparent hardships demonstrated to allow for a subdivision
requiring a variance.
3. Inadequate findings to support claim for riparian access for two
lots.
4. Impossible to position a house of comparable size in neighborhood
on Lot 2 because of the intersecting driveways, lagoon setback
and need to set back house 35* from edge of both easements.

Re:Subdivision of Tract E, Registered
Land Survey No. 1422; Orono City
Control No. 526
2465 Shadywood Road
Gentlemen:
You will recall that you issued your approval of my
application for preliminary subdivision of the above tract on
December 12, 1979 and gave me notice that the final plat would
have to be filed on or before December 11, 1980. Subsequent
to that time, due to the state of the economy and other difficulties,
my plans for construction of a new bank building on part of the
above tract have been in the process of reconsideration. However,
recently it was called to my attention that the due date for the
filing of the final plat was drawing near. In response to this
reminder, I have arranged to contact Mr. John A. Peterson of
C. E. Coulter 6 Associates, Inc., surveyors, who did the original
survey work for me in connection with this property. In anticipation
that we will most likely go ahead with our plans for the bank
building, I have made arrangements with Mr. Peterson to proceed
Immediately with the work of preparing the final plat.
I now understand that the submission of the final plat not
only involves the work that needs to be done by Mr. Peterson, but
also requires prior approval of the plat by the Hennepin County
Highway Department, the Hennepin County Surveyor's office, and the
drafting department of the Registrar of Titles' office (this being
torrens' property) before the plat can be submitted to you for
approval, and that these prior approvals can take a number of weeks,
particularly since we are now approaching the holiday season.
I sincerely regret that my lack of information and delay
in reactivating these proceedings now make it appear unlikely that
a submittal of the final plat could take place before December 12,
1980 and that a more realistic date would be January 26, 1981.
This is on the basis of an estimate received from Mr. Peterson.
