No plan was forthcoming prior to the May meeting, hence the item was continued at {^>plicant’s request to the June 19 meeting. A revised plan was submitted a few days ago which includes lowering the northerly and easterly portions of the existing deck, so that no portions of the deck or its required railings will be more than 6' above grade. This is possible because the natural grade under all but the north and west portions of the deck, is only 2-3' or less below the existing deck platform. Building Official Lyle Oman and I inspected the site today and confirmed that the existing grade below the northeast comer of the ; deck drops off drastically just out from the base of the embedded tree, so this area will be lowered and provided with handrails to meet all requirements. I As a result, no portions of the proposed deck or railings will be more than 6' above grade, therefore this deck system by definition will not be included in the calculation of lot coverage. Lot coverage including the proposed remodeling and room additions will be at 14.9% (1937.5 s.f) by excluding the deck. This solution also avoids variances that would have been required with the retaining wall system that is no longer proposed. Variances Required The revised proposal brings this review back to where it was in March, absent the problem of structural coverage. On March 20 (see minutes) Planning Commission recommended denial based on excessive lot coverage, which is no longer an issue. The remaining variances include: 2. Section 10.22, Subd. 2 and Section 10.56, Subd. 16 (L)(2) - Lakeshore Hardcover - Within 75-250’ of the shoreline there shall be no greater than 25% hardcover. Variance Request: To permit a hardcover variance to allow 4,468.7 s.f (48.9%), where 5,061.7 s.f (55.4%) exists and 2,282.5 s f (25%) is allowed. »2564 - 3550 Ivy Place June 15, 2000 Page 2 3. Section 10.25, Subd. 6(B): Side Setback: The minimum requirement for side yard setback in the LR-IC zone is 10 feet. Variance Request: To permit a side yard setback of 2.9'“3.4' where 10' is required; replacement of the second story continues the existing substandard side setback of 2.9'-3.4' on the west side of the house. Granting of the hardcover and setback variances will permit a 364.5 s.f addition to the south side of the residence and remodeling of the existing residence. The scope of the project involves removing the roof, the street side deck and steps, and the second story. The first story walls and foundation will remain. The addition will replace the outside stairway and provide for an entrance thru the house. The roof line will change, however the height will stay the same. The addition will also aid in diverting runoff further downhill rather than into the house. The remodeling and addition will result in a reduction of hardcover coverage in the 75-250' to 4,468.7 s.f. (48.9%), where 5,061.7 (55.4%) s.f. exists and 2,282.5 s.f. (25%) is allowed. The applicant is proposing to remove streetside deck, steps, walk, railroad ties, and landscape fabric under rock. Replacement of the second story continues the existing substandard side setback of 2.9'-3.4' on the west side of the house. The house was built prior to current zoning standards. Statement of Hardship: The applicant has included his statement of hardship in Exhibit C of the March 20* memo. Additional Discussion 1. The roof line is changing, however the height of the residence is not changing, and no height variance is needed. The foundation and first story walls will remain as existing. 2. While the 75-250' hardcover on the property exceeds the City standards, hardcover on the lot is decreasing, and the lot is small compared to the LR-1C zoning district standard. The existing house, addition and deck are all outside the 0-75' zone. 3. The addition is adding mass to the residence, but to the street side rather than the lake side. There is no average lakeshore setback encroachment, and no lot coverage variance is required. »2564 - 3550 Ivy Place June 15. 2000 Page 2 ANALYSIS WORKSHEET Lot Area/Width; LR-IC 5 Lot Area 'Lot Width - ^Side yard setback : Required 21,780 s.f.

Approval should be subject to the condition that if the foundation is found to be in disrepair this will be considered a rebuild and needs to come back to the Planning Commission and Council for review. Also a new survey showing the proposed additions must be submitted before a building permit will be issued. On April 13 the 60-day deadline was extended an additional 60 days to June 16. On May 11 the applicant advised staff he would not have plans available for the May meeting and would submit plans for the June 19*^ meeting. This item will be reviewed by Council on June 26th.

VOTE: Ayes 5, Nays 0. (#5) #2564 WILLIAM SCOTT DAMPIER, 3550 IVY PLACE - VARIANCES, 8:00 p.m. • 8:32 p.m. William Oampier, Applicant, was present. Gaffron stated this application appeared before the Planning Commission at their March meeting Page 10 i ORONO PLANNING COMMISSION MINUTES FOR APRIL 17,2000 (tf?.S64 William Dampier, Continued) wfnre they recommended denial of this application based on excessive lot coverage. Staff has hac a number of discussions regarding this application in which the Applicant has suggested some altenative methods for revising the nature of the deck to enable it to be defined as non-structural for lot coverage purposes. The Applicant is proposing to add a retaining wall around the north and east sides of the deck at a height and width that would technically allow removal of the deck railing, which currently is about nine feet above grade at its highest point. The majority of the deck is less than six feet above grade, and would be entirely less than six feet above grade once the retaining wall/terrace was built. If the deck Is not included in the lot coverage calculation, lot coverage by the house and proposed addition becomes conforming at 14.9 percent. A railing may be removed If the deck is less than 30 inches at the perimeter. The Applicant is proposing to raise the grade to make the deck less than six feet above grade and therefore it would no longer be considered as structural coverage. Gaffron stated construction of a retaining wall would require a variance since a section of the deck is approximately three to four feet from the property line. Gaffron otated the Planning Commission should also consider whether the existing deck with railing constitutes visual bulk and massing of structure to the extent that it should be included in lot coverage. If the Planning Commission does not feel it should be included in the total lot coverage, one option is to recommend approval of the retaining wall/railing removal concept, which would eliminate the need for a lot coverage variance. Another option would be to recommend approval of the variances for the side setback, hardcover and lot coverage for the proposal with the deck left in its present condition with the finding that there is Justification/hardship for a lot coverage variance. Dampier stated he understands the Planning Commission has the authority to recommend removal of his deck, noting when the deck was replaced he was led to believe that he was in compliance, which has since been found to be erroneous. Dampier stated with removal of the deck, he would be left with an area where the ground cover is very sparce due to the amount of shading as well as the established root systems from a number of trees in the area. Dampier stated his neighbor has addressed this same problem by placing down plastic underlayment with rock. Dampier commented he has attempted to grow grass in this area as well as experimenting with various plants and ground cover that tolerate shade well, which has not met with much success. Removal of the deck would also result in the premature death of two to three trees in the area. Dampier stated by constructing the retaining walls and planter system, he would be able to address »he drainage problems that he is currently experiencing. Dampier stated his proposal to raise the ground level addresses the issue of lot coverage and is a possible solution to his problem. Dampier indicated he is attempting to find a solution to this situation and address the concerns of the Planning Commission. Lindquist inquired whether the proposal by Dampier was to leave the deck as is, remove the railing, and construct a regaining wall system with planters. Dampier stated it is. Hav/n noted the Applicant is proposing to build up the ground elevation which would make the deck less than six feet off ground level. Danpier stated the railing is above six feet, with only the northwest corner of the deck consisting of approximately one square foot being over six feet in elevation. Page 11 • 1 (#2564 William Dampier, Continued) Stoddard commented he likes the efforts the Applicant is taking to comply with the 15 percent structural coverage. Stoddard inquired whether the deck could be shifted over to the left and brought down lower to address some possible safety issues due to elimination of the railing. Dampier stated his only access to the lakeside section of his property is through a narrow section that exists In that area. Dampier stated he has already lost two trees as a result of the big storm that occurred in this area several years ago and he would like to avoid losing additional trees. Stoddard suggested the Applicant consult with an arborist about the placement of fill in the area of the trees. Dampier stated he has spoken with a landscape architect who has indicated the trees will survive with the amount of fill he is proposing in this area. Hawn commented in her view raising the elevation of the ground level is a contrived solution and defeats the purpose of the ordinance. Hawn stated In her view the amount of mass being suggested with this latest proposal Is actually greater than what currently exists and would also place the mass closer to the adjoining neighbor. Hawn suggested the Applicant consider a two-level deck with a stairway. Hawn stated the Planning Commission needs to have a map depicting the proposed changes to the deck and ground level. Dampier inquired whether the Planning Commission would have any objection to the deck being removed. Hawn indicated she would not. Dampier reiterated if the deck is removed, he would be left with bare ground level in this area. Hawn stated it Is her feeling the Applicant could still have a deck in this location. Lindquist inquired whether a portion of the deck could be removed. Dampier stated he would rather remove the entire deck than a portion of the deck. Dampier stated if the deck is lowered, he will be endangering some of the trees in the area. Dampier stated due to the costs he has already incurred, he is committed to this project, noting he would be willing to remove the deck if there was no other choice. Lindquist stated it appears the Planning Commission is looking for the Applicant to eliminate at least a portion of the deck, noting the planter system does add more mass to the property. Berg commented in her view the Planning Commission should take Into consideration what the Applicant will be left with if the deck is removed. Hawn stated in her view an acceptable plan can be reached. Dampier commented in his opinion he has compromised on this proposal as much as possible. Lindquist remarked the Applicant will need to readdress the issues relating to the deck once more. Berg stated the Planning Commission does not have the ability to design a deck for the Applicant. Berg stated the Applicant will also need to look at the impacts the removal of the deck will have on Page 12 ORONO PLANNING COMMISSION MINUTES FOR APRIL 17,2000 (#2564 William Dampier, Continued) drainage and landscaping. Dampier stated in his view his neighbor would rather not have the deck removed due to the erosion and water runoff problem that will be created. Stoddard commented he is in favor of the Applicant having a deck, but he would prefer the north side be brought in somewhat to eliminate safety concerns. Hawn recommended the Applicant redesign his deck. Hawn stated she has a concern regarding the size of the pianter system being proposed. Stoddard indicated he is okay with Gaffron’s recommendation on this project Lindquist stated he also is okay with Gaffron's recommendation. Hawn stated she would like to see the amount of mass being proposed reduced rather than increased. Hawn stated in her view It appears the members of the Planning Commission ^uld like to see the deck brought in from the north somewhat, but that the Applicant needs to submit a revised drawing illustrating exactly what is being proposed. Nygard indicated he is in agreement with Gaffron's recommendation. Dampier pointed out if the deck is considered structural coverage, he would not be entitled to have a deck. Hawn stated she would like to see the height of the deck as low as possible, with the planter system being as low as possible as well. Hawn inquired whether the Applicant would like to have his application tabled. Dampier indicated he would like it tabled. There were no public comments regarding this application. Hawn moved, Stoddard seconded, to table Application #2564, William Scott Dampier, 3550 Ivy Place, to allow the Applicant time to submit revised plans. VOTE: Ayes 5, Nays 0.

Planning Commission voted to recommend denial of this request based on excessive lot coverage. Applicant had requested that PC act at that time rather than table it for -A, revision. After a number of subsequent discussions with staff, prior to the Council meeting applicant suggested some alternative method for revising the nature of the deck to make it no longer definable * ’ as a structure for lot coverage purposes. Council briefly reviewed the alternatives and referred the application back to Planning Commission for further consideration. Exhibit B is a copy of the sur\'cy and the site photo from the lake side. Applicant proposes to add a retaining wall around the north and east sides of the deck at a height and width that would technically (per Building Official Lyle Oman) allow removal of the deck railing, which currently is about 9' above: ^.i side at its highest point. Most of the deck platform is less than 6' above grade, and would be entirely less than 6' above grade once the retaining wall/terrace was built. Applicant suggests that the criteria for considering this structure as lot coverage will no longer be met once the grade is raised and the railing is removed. The code states as follows: "The following shall be included in calculation of lot coverage by structures: 2.Tennis courts, patios, decks, and all similar "open" structures when partially enclosed by fences, railings or walls which extend more than 6' above grade level (if any portion of such structures extends more than 6' above grade level, the entire structure shall count toward lot coverage)." If the deck is not included in the lot coverage calculation, lot coverage by the house and proposed addition becomes conforming at 14.9%. / 1i i' ■-». u. #2564 April 13,2000 Page 2 Please review the staff memo to Council as well as the April 5 addendum, and consider these questions in making a recommendation to Council: 1.Does the existing deck with railing constitute visual bulk and massing of structure to the extent that it should be included in lot coverage? If so, then consider questions 2 and 3. However, if you conclude that this deck should not be considered as lot coverage, then either a variance should be considered and unique findings made about this particular deck, or perhaps the code should be revised, and applicant might be advised to place his project on hold until the code is changed. 2.If the grade along the east and north sides is raised by adding a retaining wall, and the railing is removed, does the deck then meet the intent of the lot coverage ordinance? 3.Should a CUP be granted to allow construction of a l'-4' high retaining wall approximately r from the side lot line to accomplish this? Options for Action 1.Recommend approval for the retaining wall / railing removal concept, with the result that a lot coverage variance is not needed, and recommend approval of variances for side setback and hardcover as well as a CUP for the retaining wall. 2. Recommend approval of variances for the side setback, hardcover and lot coverage for the proposal with deck left as-is, stating Justification/hardship for lot coverage variance, and perhaps suggesting a code revision. 3.

' I•*.% 1 m, c-i To: From: Date: Council Mike Gaffron, Senior Planning Coordinator im4-5-00 Subject: Addendum - Additional Information The applicant has submitted 4 drawings and a brief summary depicting four potential methods for revising the lake side deck to make it no longer structural coverage (See attached sheets). I don ’t believe I would characterize these as a ‘compromise ’ between staff and the appHcaiit; nor would I consider each of the options ‘mutually acceptable’. Rather, they aie a ccmpilation of the options discussed by staff and applicant as to how the lot coverage issue might be resolved. Applicant was advised that he could propose options to the Council for consideration. Staff has the following brief comments on each: Plan A - The idea of creating 3' wdde planter terraces at 30" drops adjacent to the deck is appealing, and would technically eliminate the need for a handrail; but this won ’t work at the north side where the deck platform is only 3-4 feet from the lot line and 6 feet above grade. Applicant ’s proposal to replace the handrail on the north side with heavy terra cotta planters on top of the deck is problematic in that the planters themselves would have to be guardrail height (36") and spaced no more than 4" apart at any point. Lower planters relying on vegetation as a barrier will not meet building code requirements per Building Official Lyle Oman. 36" high planters intended to act as a guardrail will have the same or greater visual impact as compared to a guardrail, and might seem to be defeating the intent of the structural coverage ordinance... Plan B - It will be impossible to place fill along the north side of the deck to a level that is high enough to eliminate the guardrail requirement, due to the deck platform being 6' above grade and being only 3-4* from the side lot line. This method likely works for the lake side of the deck, but not the north side. Plan C - Same issues as Plan B - on the north side the deck platform is 6' above grade; to eliminate tlie guardrail requires a 3' wide terrace no more than 30" lower than the platform. It will take two 3' wide terraces out from the north side to accomplish this, but only 3-4' available to do it in... Plan D - Cut off nortli portions of deck platform and add terrace planters as needed being 3* wide and no more than 30" above grade. Could then add removed deck to the south side of deck where no railing would be needed. This has negative implications for applicant ’s trees and the frmctionality of his south side yard. Except for these concerns, staff prefers Plan D over Plans A, B or C. Other options have been briefly discussed, including lowering the entire deck to a point where it no longer needs a guardrail (although this has wheelchair accessibility implications such as requiring a ramp from the house to the deck). Another option Council might consider is granting a lot coverage variance for the deck as-is but with a condition that converting the deck to a covered porch will require further variances which are unlikely to be granted. In your discussion, keep in mind the reason for the lot coverage ordinance: to limit the visual massing and bulk of structures on small (<2 acre) properties. Compromise with Frenchy Dampier variance request #2564 & Michael GrafTon^Sr. Planning Coorxlinator Mutually Acceptable Plans Plan A 1. Remove handrail from around the deck. 2.

(.29 acre) List of Exhibits: A Notice of Planning Commission Action B Draft Minutes of Planning Commission Meeting (3/20/2000) C Applicants response letter at Planning Commission Meeting (3/20/2000) D Staff Report and Exhibits of 3/20/2000 Application: The applicant has applied for variances to permit a 364.5 s.f. addition to the south side of the residence and to remodel the existing residence. Tlie scope of the project involves removing the roof, the street side deck and steps, and the second story. The first story walls and foundation will remain. The addition will replace the outside stairway and provide for an entrance thru the house. The roof line will change, however the height will stay the same. The addition will also aid in di\ erting runoff further downhill rather than into the house. The requested variances are for: 1 . Section 10.03, Subd. 14 (C): Lot Coverage: In all zoning districts, for all lots of 0-1.99 acre in total area, the total combined footprint areas of all principal and accessory structures shall not exceed 15% of the lot area. Variance Reque.st: To permit 2,433.2 s.f. (18.7%) lot coverage, where 2,188.7 s.f. (16.8%) exists and 1,954.4 s.f. (15%) is allowed. 2. Section 10.22, Subd. 2, and Section 10.56, Subd. 16 (L)(2): Lakeshore Hardcover: Within 75- 250' of the shoreline there shall be no greater than 25% hardcover. Variance Request: To permit a hardcover variance to allow 4,468.7 s.f. (48.9%), where 5,061.7 s.f. (55.4%) exists and 2,282.5 s.f. (25%) is allowed. #2564 Page 2 3. Section 10.25, Subd. 6(B): Side Setback: The minimum requirement for side yard setback in the LR-IC zone is 10 feet. Variance Request: To permit a side yard setback of 2.9'-3.4' where 10' is required; replacement of the second story and roof continues the existing substandard side setback of 2.9'-3.4' on the west side of the house. PLANNING COMMISSION: The Planning Commission recommended by a 5 to 0 vote to: Deny the application as pre?“nted. DISCUSSION The remodeling and addition will result in an increase of structural coverage on the lot to 2,433.2 s.f. (18.7%), where 2,188.7 s.f. (16.8%) exists and 1,954.5 s.f. (15%) is allowed. The lakeside deck is considered structure because it is more than 6' above grade. Prior to and after the Planning Commission meeting. City Staff discussed with the applicant options to reduce the structural lot coverage. These options include redesigning or lowering the lakeside deck by leaving a portion of the deck for direct access and ramping to a ground level deck, removing the deck and have a ramp to access a ground level deck, and ways to add fill to raise grade level. Any of these options would result in reduction of structural lot coverage and eliminate the need for a lot coverage variance. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: The applicant has not submitted any additional information, choosing to continue with the plan presented to the Planning Commission. Staff concurs with the Planning Commission’s concerns regarding the increase in structural lot coverage. Staff reconunends denial of this application as presented, but Council may wish to table if applicant expresses any interest in revising th*? deck to make it low enough to not be considered as structure for lot coverage purposes. COUNCIL ACTION REQUESTED: To direct staff to draft an appropriate resolution for the April 24,2000 City Council meeting. CITY OF CRONO P.O.

Dampier stated he has attempted to comply with all of the City's regulations regarding this property, which has been a frustrating and difficult process. Dampier indicated he was told these plans would be approved by Chris and Lyle on City Staff. Dampier stated Casco Point is zoned LR-1C, half acre lots, with zones B and C being allovi^ed as much as a 15,000 square foot structure on a two acre lot. Dampier stated according to City Codes, he is limited to 1,954 square feet, which in his view is placing an unfair burden on himself as well as the other residents on Casco Point. Dampier stated when the exception is more commoii than the rule, the rule should be changed, particularly in this case. It is doubtful that any s ngle lot on Casco Point concurs with the current City rules, with a number of homes in the neighborhood exceeding the allowable Siructure coverage limit. Dampier stated his neighbors have slightly larger homes than himself with detached garages. The plan before the Planning Commission tonight takes into account the environmental and the community as a whole, with the proposed reduction in hardcover being a win/win situation for all. Dampier stated he has met with City Staff on a number of occasions for the past few years, with the exact same model being presented to Lyle and Chris for their review and approval. Dampier stated he informed City Staff approximately one year ago that he wished to purchase the large oak timbers needed to complete this project, which was a long and costly process. City Staff was asked at that time whether the proposed project would be approved. Dampier stated he was told the project would more than likely be approved. Dampier stated he then proceeded forward with the purchase of the large oak timbers, which are very rare and expensive, and at this time is not agreeable to removing them. Dampier stated the addition to the existing residence will not block his neighbors' view of the lake, will improve his existing structure as well as increase the City's tax base, reduce the current hardcover and existing structural coverage, as well as improve the existing drainage problems being experienced on this property, which will benefit the community. Page 13 ORONO PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING ^U^’UTES FOR MARCH 20.2000 Dampier expressed some frustration regarding his discussions with Bottenberg, noting that he was told he had to remove his existing deck in order to bnng the structural coverage on this lot into compliance. Dampier stated there currently is no second story on the north side of the house, which in essence means that the existing second story will not be removed. Dampier stated his front deck currently is In compliance with the American Disablities Act. Dampier stated he has a different view on what should be viewed structure and non-stmctural, indicating in his view Bottenberg ’s view of what should be determined as structural coverage is incorrect. Dampier stated the stairs in his view should be considered as part of the house. Dampier stated the existing decks on the house are in a deteriorating condition and need to be replaced** Dampier stated the hardcover numbers for his driveway should be reduced by a substantial amount since the driveway consists of bricks laid in dirt which has a fair amount of grass growing inbetween the bricks Dampier reiterated the majority of the homes in the Casco Point neighborhood are non-conforming to tlie existing City Codes, and urged the Planning Commission to approve his application tonight based on the reduction in existing hardcover and stru;:*u-)l coverage, the improvements to the existing drainage, and the increase in tax base, which is a benefit to the City as a whole. There were no public comments regarding this application. •% Hawn stated a large portion of the Applicant's comments were directed towards zoning of Casco Point, which the Planning Commission is not in a position to address tonight. Dampier indicated he understands that position. Hawn stated what is defined as structural coverage and non-structural coverage is not open to debate with City Staff. Hawn stated City Ordinance stipulates certain hardcover and structural coverage numbers which must be adhered to by the Planning Commission, City Ccuncil, and residents. Hawn stated normally stairs are not considered structural coverage, but if a deck is located higher than six feet off the ground, it is considered stmctural coverage. Hawn stated if the Applicant were to replace the deck and reduce the height of the deck. It would not be considered Page 14 ------ ORONO PLANNING COM>USSION MEETING NUNUTES FOR MARCH 20,2000 structural coverage. Hawn stated the major obstacle with this application is the increase in structural coverage, and an option offered by City Staff was to reduce the height of the deck. Dampier stated the deck as it currently exists today serves a handicapped member of his family. The American Disabilities Act precludes making that deck inaccessible by a handicapped person. Kluth stated City Staff or the Planning Commission is not requiring the Applicant to remove the deck, but merely has offered that as an option to reduce the amount of structural coverage on the property. Dampier stated that he was assured by previous City Staff that this deck would not pose a problem. Hawn remarked that City Staff is not in a position to say what will and what will not be approve^y the Planning Co.mmission and City Council. Hawn stated City Staff attempts to provide guidance to the Applicants on the rules and regulations the Applicants need to comply with. Hawn stated she would like to help the Applicant on this plan as much as possible, and one option for reducing structural coverage on the property is being reducing the height of the deck. Hawn stated she historically does not approve applications where there is an increase In structural coverage when the Applicant is already over the allowable limit. Dampier stated he is not in agreement with the structural and hardcover figures liste^l in City Staffs report. Lindquist concurred that typically the Planning Commission will not approve structural coverage over the allowable 15 percent, especially if the Applicant is already over the allowable limit. Lindquist stated the maximum structural coverage that will be allowed by the Planning Commission is what currently exists on the property. Dampier stated he is willing to accept Bottenberg’s numbers on the hardcover. Dampier stated he is somewhat confused because the front deck Is considered structural but the rear deck is not. Nygard stated as he understands the American Disabilities Act. the handicap access Itself does not count towards your hardcover. Weinberger stated the American Disabilities Act does provide for one handicap access to the home. 4 Page 15 ORONO PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING MINUTES FOR MARCH 20, 2000 with certain portions of the access not being included in the hardcover figures. Weinberger inquired whether the home presently is handicapped accessible. Dampier stated currently the home is not handicapped accessibie, with the proposed plan providing for a handicap access. Berg Inquired whether there is a survey on this property. Bottenberg stated the survey in the file is dated March, 1990. Berg stated an updated survey is always required at the time of the application. Hawn stated there still appear to be some Issues that need to be resolved prior to approval, with the biggest Issue being the amount of structural coverage being proposed. Hawn stated the Appliant will need to reduce structural coverage somewhere on the property. Lindquist stated the Planning Commission is looking for a reduction in the amount of proposed structural coverage to reduce it to the amount that currently exists on the property. Dampier expressed frustration with the fact that the deck that appears to be in question now was just recently replaced, noting he is not in a financial position to remove the deck at this time. Kluth reiterated that the Planning Commission is not requiring the removal of the deck, but is asking the Applicant to reduce the overall structural coverage on his property. Kluth stated removal of the deck is one option available to the Applicant to reduce the structural coverage. Dampier stated leaving the deck aside, if he chooses to change anythi.'.g on the foundation, that would be considered a rebuild rather than a remodel and then the setbacks would apply. Lindquist stated City Staff is willing to work with the Applicant on this application in order to reduce the structural coverage to what currently exists. Dampier commented that a majority of the houses in his neighborhood currently exceed the structural coverage limits. Lindquist stated the Planning Commission Is not in a position tonight to discuss those. it was the consensus of the Planning Commission that they would be willing to approve variances to setback and hardcover but not inclined to grant a structural coverage variance in excess of what Page 16 . ? i ORONO PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING MINUTES FOR MARCH 20, 2000 currently exists on the property. Hawn inquired whether the Applicant would like the Planning Commission to act on his application tonight or to table the matter. Oampier requested the Planning Commission vote on his application tonight. Motion by Hawn, second by Kluth, to recommend denial of Application #2564, William Scott Dampier, 3550 Ivy Place, granting of variances to permit a 365.4 square foot addition to the south side of the residence and to remodel the existing residence due to the excessive amount of structural coverage being proposed. VOTE: Ayes 6, Nays 0. Oampier inquired whether the Plarjning Commission had read his statement of hardship on thisr application. The Planning Commission indicated they have read his hardship statement, 16) #2565 PETER SCHERER. 15 ORONO ORCHARD ROAD SOUTH, VARIANCE RENEWAL. 8:59 p^. - 9:03 p.m. Peter Scherehs^plicant, was present. The Certiricate of M^HiQg and Affidavit of Publication were noted. Bottenberg stated the Appliclmt^is requesting a variance renewal, with a variance being granted for lot width on September 26.1994. The previous owner were proposing to remove the existing house and construct a new residence on the property^^he existing house was removed; however, the new residence was not constructed on the lot. The present owner Is proposing to construct a new residence on the lot that meets all setbacks in the RR-1 Zoning district. The Applicant would 'ike to renew the lot width variance on this property. Scherer indicated he was not aware the variance had expired. There were no public comments regarding this application. X X Motion by Hawn, second by Lindquist, to recommend approval of Application #2)S65, Peter Scherer, 15 Orono Orochard Road South, granting of a variance renewal to X Page 17 III 1 1. 2. 3. 5. Response Variance request, to reduce lot coverage from current 2S48.8.8 sq.ft, to 2480.6 sq.ft, a total reduction of 68.2 sq. ft. Variance request, to reduce hardcover from 5061.7 sq.ft, to 4468.7 sq.ft Side setback [please note; there is no second story on the north side of the house the only difference is between the nearly flat current roof and the steep pitch of the new roof. Application summary: the existing second story will sgt be removed [as shown on the blueprints] Structure will be reduced from 2548.8sq.fr. to 2480.6sq.fr. iMuea of Concern: 2. However, the hardcover is much less than either one of my neighbors. I do not have large area's of my yard covered with plastic covered by rock. 4. The lot is typical for the neighborhood. Most Casco Pt. lots are similar size or smaller{refer to plot map RLS No 477} 6. It's astonishing that a person in such a responsible position in city government would dare to suggest that a structure that is in compliance with the law be brought out of compliance. 1 refer to the Americans with disabilities act That deck is in compliance, it is wheel chair accessible. Options for Actioii 1. A survey will be provided after construction to show any changes. The current survey provides all the required information. 6. RE; Staff Recommendations: The deck as it is complies with the Americans with disabilities act Staff recommendations could make the city libel if her recommendations are followed. Wendy is simply wrong in her assessment of what is and what isn't structure. Her contention that the stairs and rear deck are somehow not structure is incredulous. My entryway door is 8 fr. above ground level. The stairs are required to enter my house. [ ho ever, if Wendy will free jump 8 fr. I might be willing to discuss not counting them] By v\ hat logic could you consider these stairs as not part of the structure of this house? Because they don't have £ roof over them? Well the lakeside deck has no roof yet it is properly considered structure. Wendy is also wrong in assuming the front [lakeside] deck is on the table. Recently the deck was repaired with pressure treated wood. However, the rear deck is fJ.*cady rotted and has been patched countless number of times and approaches the dang<;rous point. Such a deck would not be approved by today's building code, if you include the stairs and rear deck there will be a 68.2 sq.fr. Reduction in structure. Wendy did not count the 576 sq.fr. Of hardcover That I have already removed in anticipation of this permit, hardcover clearly shown on the survey. In addition the hardcover of my driveway should be reduced by 876 sq.fr. [15,300 bricks laid over dirt yields approximately Va in. of grass and moss growing between them, the bricks are 8x3=1 lin.x .75=126,225 sq.in. Whichis876sq.fr.]. The front deck is considered hardcover, contrary to what other communities have ruled. My 80+ year old Oak & Maple trees growing through my deck since 1974 are proof that this is not hardcover. Also not included is the many ft of railroad timber retaining walls that I have removed in an attempt to reduce flooding of my ground floor. Total over count of hardcover removed is close to 2000 sq. ft. Wendy has l^n confused from the start of this process. She looked at plans and an exact scale model that showed only the addition and modifled area and wrongly decided that I was planning to tear the whole house down. Evrry time we contacted each other she was conftjsed. Clariflcation only seemed to cause her to And something else to object to. In spite of a very clear set of plans, an exact scale model and many discussions she still gets ftindamental facts wrong. Somehow she now wants me to change the lake side of my home, no discussion of where the money would come from, or the time. It's particularly conftising because when she erroneously thought that the entire house was going to be tom down, I wouldn't be allowed to do that, but now it seems like that's exactly what she want's! My discussions with her have started to sound like let's make a deal. Remove this and I'll let you have that, make that smaller and Fll let you do this. Well all of those compromises have already been made with Lyle and Chris. This house is typical of the neighborhood, if anything it is smaller than many homes in the area. As for meeting your formula, I would remind you that our home as all of the homes on Casco Pt. are cibtiBg-non-conformiBy structure, the rules don't fit so we are grandfathered in. It's like Wendy isn't going to honor ^^t has been agreed to. She wants to design ffiy: house h££ way. It doesn't matter what the rules are, only what her interpretation of the rules are. It just seems that if there is a way to say NO! Wendy would rather take it, no matter what grief or hardship that causes. ■| sr TO:Chair Hawn and Orono Planning Commission Members Ron Moorse, City Administrator FROM: DATE: Wendy Bottenberg, Assistant Zoning Administrator/Planner March 20,2000 SUBJECT;#2564 William Scott Dampier 3550 Ivy Place Variance — Public Hearing Zoning District: LR-IC One Family Lakeshore Residential District (1/2 acre) Lot Area:13,030 s.f.

Variance Request: To permit a side yard setback of 2.9'-3.4' where 10' is required; replacement of the second story continues the existing substandard side setback of 2.9'-3.4* on the west side of the house. Application Summary: The applicant has applied for variances to permit a 364.5 s.f. addition to the south side of the residence and to remodel the existing residence. The scope of the project involves removing the roof, the street side deck and steps, and the second story. The first story walls and foundation will remain. The addition will replace the outside stairway and provide for an entrance thru the house. The roof line will change, however the height will stay the same. The addition will also aid in diverting runoff further downhill rather than into the house. The remodeling and addition will result in an increase of structural coverage on the lot to 2,433.2 (18.7%), where 2,188.7 s.f. (16.8%) exists and 1,954.5 s.f. (15%) is allowed. The lakeside deck is considered structure because it is more than 6' above grade. NOTE: If the lakeside deck was not considered as suijctural coverage, the proposed house and addition would meet the 15% limit. But, this deck must be included based on the definition in Section 10.03, Subd. 14 (C)(2). (See Exhibit G (2/2). The remodeling and addition will result in a reduction of hardcover coverage in the 75- 250’ to 4,468.7 (48.9%), where 5,061.7 (55.4%) s.f. exists and 2,282.5 s.f. (25%) is allowed. The applicant is proposing to remove streetside deck, steps, walk, railroad ties, and landscape fabric under rock. Replacement of the second story continues the existing substandard side setback of 2.9 ’- 3.4’ on the west side of the house. The house was built prior to current zoning standards. Statement of Hardship; The applicant has included his statement of hardship in Exhibit C. The applicant should also be asked for his testimony regarding this issue. Issues of Concer n; 1. The roof line is changing, however the height of the residence is not changing. 2. The 75-250’ hardcover coverage on the lot is decreasing, but will still greatly exceed the allowed amount. #2564 William Dampier 3550 Ivy Place Variances 3/20/2000 Page 2 3. The addition is adding mass to the residence, but to the street side rather than the lake side. There is no average lakeshore setback encroachment. 4. The lot is small compared to the LR-IC zoning district standard. 5. The foundation and first story walls will remain as existing. 6. If the lakeside deck was not calculated in structural coverage, the proposed house and addition would meet the 15% limit (14.9%). If the deck and railing were lowered it would not be included in the structural coverage of the lot. 7. The house was built prior to current zoning standards. 8. Other issues raised by the Planning Commission. Options for Action; 1. Recommend approval of the variances to allow the addition and remodeling with the condition if the foundation is found to be in disrepair this will be considered a rebuild and needs to come back to the Planning Commission for review. Also a new survey showing revisions be submitted to City staff for approval before building permit will be issued. OR 2. Advise tlie applicant what other possible revisions will make the application approvable, and table the application. 3. Other. Staff Recommendation; Staff recommends the application be tabled. While meeting with staff, the applicant did mention the lakeside deck will need to be replaced sometime in the future. Because replacement of the deck will in itself require a setback and hardcover variance, Staff feels the structural coverage and hardcover on the lot would be better addressed if the addition, remodeling and lakeside deck were reviewed concurrently. (NOW). Lowering this deck could eliminate its lot coverage status and result in no need for an overall lot coverage variance (^2564 William Dampinr 3.^50 Ivy Place Variances 3/20/2000 Page 3 {I ANALYSIS WORKSHEET Lot Area: LR-IC Lot Area Lot Width Side yard setback Required 21,780 s.f.

The runoff from their roofs and hardcover can overwhelm any defense I have constructed. This addition will allow me to divert runoff further onto my yard and allow my west lawn to deal with runoff. 3. Due to the almost flat pitch of the roof on the west end of my house, {less than 2 inches in a foot} Ice dams are too easily formed in the winter. Causing the roof to leak inside. In addition with the slow rate of runoff due to the low pitch, during heavy rains the roof can leak caused by the ponding effect of the starter row of shingles. G. Erosion caused by the heavy runoff from neighbors has in the past Washed out my entryway steps, 4 times! The new addition will replace those entry way steps thus eliminating those potentially dangerous outside stairs completely, thus ending any the possiblity of a lawsuit, caused by slippery or washed out steps. Previous attempts at correcting the existing hardship. The first attempt at correction of preventing heavy rainfall from flooding the ground floor of my home involved the removal of any hardcover in an attempt to absorb the runoff from my neighbors. That FAILED because the amount of water was too large for the amount of land available. The second attempt at diverting runoff involved recontouring the land to divert runoff further downhill. Due to topography involved that FAILED, because the area involved remained too flat to effectively drain water away from the area consequentially a heavy rainfall resulted in flooding of the ground floor of my house, with the resulting disgusting mess to clean up. The third attempt at a nonstructural correction FAILED, that was to dig a diverter trench into the landscape. The trench simply filled up and the resulting overflow did the damage, ariy increase in size of the trench was at best a delaying action rather then a true solution. A tiench of sufficient size to contain all of the run off from my neighbor would have been unsightly as well as dangerous. The fourth attempt at a nonstructural correction FAILED when a swale was added to divert the water further downhill. A large enough swale to divert the runoff caused my lawn mower to scalp the lawn until it no longer acted as a swale. The scalped lawn just speeded up erosion Others attempts at resolving some of the other issues include reroofing the house, and 4 times replacing the steps.. The only solution that will provide relief is something that includes a dam running East to West long enough to divert the runoff at least 16 feet to the West and allow the increase slope at that point to take runoff and naturally disperse it onto the West lawn. That dam would be formed when the foundation was poured for the new addition. Don’t you love elegant solutions? An eyesore could be created in an attempt to resolve the flooding problem. Some equally ugly solution such as rolled roofing could be used to resolve the roof drainage problem, and the regular wash out of stairs could be resolved with a large cast concrete stairway. Ugly? Absolutely but needed! Or you can accept a elegant solution that reduces hard cover and reduces structure, A . t. solution that is in keeping with the character of the neighborhood, A solution that would not be visible to most people. The view from the lake is obscured by Three large mature trees [and when construction is done two additional trees as well as bushes will be added]. Both neighbors on either side of my house have homes further toward the lake then mine so their view is not affected in any way by this solution. In addition the neighbor behind me has a view over my home and as there will be no increase in height of my house his view will also be unaffected. His primary view of the lake is to the north into Casco Cove, any view he has to the East {into Carmens bay} is over the garage roof of my nei^bor. The structure to be removed includes a 4ft. By 32ft. Entryway deck [128 sq.ft.] as well as 12ft. By 23ft. Entryway stairs [ 276 sq.ft.] for a total structure reduction of 404 sq.ft. When compared to the added 352 sq.ft, ^th the structure and hard cover will be removed! Thus with this change Lake Minnetonka will ha\e ihe burdon of 52 so. ft less to deal with. While it is not overwhelming it is an improvement. The final comment is that this change will improve things for .... Lake Minnetonka The city of Orono's tax base My family The neighborhood The only person that will be negatively impacted is that stupid fool that has to do all the work and pay all the bills, and he deserves it! c (3|5) DESCRIPTION A steep pitch to the roof oriented north to south will be added over the kitchen and dining room to form a great room. Entering the great room will be an entranceway over the existing outside stairs. In addition to providing a safe assent to the second floor it will allow a weather lock to be incorporated into the design. The entranceway will be oriented east to west. The steep pitch of the entry roof will match the pitch of the great room. Both will meet the roof of the existing house. By using a steep pitch roof a less ponderous facade will be presented from the view of the driveway. [ several homes in the immediate area have a similar pitch] Any other view, including the view from the lake will be obstructed by the many large trees on my lot. The exterior facade will be English Tudor using Black walnut "beams ” and stucco over a base of Chilton stone. At the intersection of the entry way and the main house will be a "silo" designed to house a spiral stairs. The interior will be built with large white oak timbers [most over 200+ years old, many were growing before the Declaration of Independence was signed in 1776] Timbers as large as 12 inches by 12 inches. Beams as long as 24 feet. Beams will be triangulated into scissors trusses to form a ridged, open vaulted ceiling over the great room. The addition will be built conforming to both the Uniformed building code and L r r • rr* 4 - a ■■ . /• N /■>••• ■ ■■ 1 I! • f • s S’? i •’ • « - • rJ the American Institute for Timber Construction.

It a cull-de-sac or dead end. Very few people drive it’s full length, previous dead ends wind up turning around in someone ’s driveway. That’s an embarrassment few are willing to risk. Since we live almost at the very end of that "dead end" the only traffic wc get is guests,neighbors, and a rare real-estate junkie. To the west of our home,across the street is a large shrub line,overgrown with grapevines and dense foliage. As that area is within the 73ft. Setback fVom Lake Minnetonka there is NO chance that any one could ever build there. To the Northwest is Casco Cove and it's wildlife island that shields the view any of the residents might have of my home while affording me an interesting and peaceful view of nature. Directly north of my home is a view of Casco Point Overgrown with large mature trees, brush, and grapevines it too is an interesting view of birds, rabbits, a beaver, an occasional pair of Bald eagles etc. As most of the area falls in the 73 ft. Setback and the little land that does not is too small to build on, it too will remain as God made it. To the northeast approximately 25 ft. away is the back of my neighbors house. Fortunately [since they live so close] they are very nice people and we get along well. Lake Minnetonka is East of our home about 100 ft. from Carmens Bay. The view to the southeast is restricted by 5 large mature ttecs which also affords us privacy and prevents those cruising on the lake from seeing into our side and back yard. South of my home is my other neighbor, the placement of my home offset towards Ivy Place gives both of us privacy and since both neighbors have little view out the back of their homes anything in my back yard has no impact My only other neighbor, to the southeast, across the road has the side of his garage facing our home. In addition his house is uphill about 15 ft. higher than mine. Any view out the side of his home has to look over my neighbors garage Lake Minnetonka has no universal or common Architectural style however within three lots of my home or about 130 ft. is a house with the same roof pitch that I propose. Ivy Place as well as Casco Point if dominated by 50ft. Lots so most houses are like mine in that we are too large for the lots and as such we are ''Existing non-conformn^ structure" While wc don ’t conform to the cuncni rules, wc should not be punished for that. Please remember the rules were put into place long after most of our houses were built. Nor sttouid what wc do impact the rest of Oronr V/c are after all zoned LRIC which is ‘/a acre lots or smaller. As most of Orono is zoned LRIA or RRl^VH [lots 1 acre or larger] allowing home owners a reasonable level of self determination is not only fair it is in the best interest of the city. b LEGAL DESCRIPTION OF PREMISES SURVEYED: Lot 173.

"Lot Area, Minimum" - Each lot shall contain the minimum area required for each proposed lot as prescribed in the Zoning Chapter of the City Code. In urban areas served by sanitary sewer, each lot must contain contiguous dry buildable land equal to the minimum areas as prescribed in the Zoning Chapter of the City Code or half-acre, whichever is less, (exclusive of public and private rights-of-way, vehicular or pedestrian easements, surface areas below the ordinary high water mark of any surface water wetlands or areas at or below the flood plain elevation for a specific property) and have legal access to the building site without encroachment of a wetland or flood plain area. #258S Robert Picper 3995 North Shore Drive Class II Preliminary Subdivision June J9, 2000 pagr-l J Application Review The applicant has recently purchased the Sandy Beach property and intends to subdivide the 1 acre lot into 2 residential lots. Previously the property had operated as a camp and is currently being used as rental cabins. Five cabins on the property are being used as rental dwellings. Upon completion of the plat the applicant would remove all the cabins and parking areas and build a home on Lot 1 (lakeshore lot) and sell Lot 2 (non-lakeshore lot) as a residential building site. Because the properties are located on a 90 degree curve along County Road 19 (North Shore Drive) driveway access to both lots independently is not the best alternative. The property owner has discussed the issue with staff and would have a shared driveway access into Lot 2 immediately to the east of the property line. Locating the driveway access any further to the west would place it very close to the sharp curve. We have not received grading plans for the access as of the date of this memo. Prior to approval of the preliminary plat it is advised the final grading plan for the driveway be approved by the City Engineer and Hennepin County. Prior to the City approving a final plat it would be appropriate to have the cabins removed from the property, or establish a schedule for removal. The applicant should provide information relating to removal of the cabins. Grading/Drainage A culvert exists from the northeast comer of Minnie Avenue and North Shore .Drive running under North Shore Drive to the Sandy Beach property. The culvert has been plugged and is not flowing at this time. The culvert is holding water back on the Minnie Avenue side of the road creating a large pond after significant rainfall. The culvert should be reopened and allowed to flow back across to the Sandy Beach property. The primary impact would be on Lot 2 as the water would flow through the building site. To save the building site on Lot 2 a drainage ditch should be constructed to divert the flows into an existing drainageway between the culvert and the road. The City Engineer has commented a 20' drainage and utility easement along North Shore Drive would be adequate to handle the regrading and drainage. An updated grading plan should be submitted for review prior to Council review of the application. The drainageway would eliminate concerns regarding drainage towards the building site on Lot 2 and properties farther to the south. Some land correction would be required once the cabins and parking areas are removed. Lot Standards Lot 1 is the proposed lakeshore lot, which would have lake access. Lot 1 meets the area and width requirements for newly created lots in the LR-IC district. The building area is located above the 931.5* 100 year flood plain. A residence can be constructed meeting the 932.5' regulatory flood protection elevation (lowest floor must be at least 1 foot above the 100 year flood elevation or 3' above the OHWL). ii2588 Robert Piepcr 3995 North Shore Drive Class II Preliminary Subdivision June /9, 2000 pagf-2 4 The lot would access through a shared driveway over Lot 2. The minimum setbacks for the property would be 30' from the road right-of-way, 10' from interior lot lines and 75' from the lakeshore of Lake Minnetonka. It is possible to build a house on the property not requiring variances for hardcover or structural coverage. Please note the site plan indicating the building pad on the property, attached Exhibit D. LMCD Code would permit 3 dock slips for the owner of Lot 1 as the property has approximately 170' of lake frontage. The LMCD permits 1 dock slip for each 50* of frontage. Lot 2 does not have lake access, but is located within the Shoreland Overlay District. Lot 2 meets the area and width requirements for newly created lots in the LR-IC district. Nearly the entire building area, within the setbacks, is located above the 932.5' contour. A residence can easily be constructed to meet the regulatory flood protection elevation. A driveway access permit will be required from Hennepin County for drive access to C.R. 19. Once the subdivision is approved, all existing access points shall be removed. A portion of the existing property is located within the Hennepin County right-of-way and shall be dedicated for that purpose on the final plat.

Standard drainage and utility easements shall be dedicated on the final plat 20' along North Shore Drive and 5' along interior property lines. 2.An easement and maintenance agreement shall be recorded with the final plat for the shared driveway access. The easement shall describe the area required to accommodate both lots. Park Dedication Fee Staff recommends the property owner pay a Ptirk Dedication fee for one new lot rather than offer land for a park dedication. Before Preliminary Plat approval the City Assessor will calculate the market value of the property. The Park Dedication fee is equivalent to 8% of the value of the lot, with a minimum fee of $2,‘)00 and a maximum fee of $4,900. Staff Recommendation Staff recommends approval of the preliminary plans and to proceed to the July 10,2000 City Council meeting for preliminary approval subject to a grading plan being submitted for the drainageway and driveway areas and Hennepin County approving the driveway location for two lots. Hennepin County has been asked to comment on this plan. Planning Commission Options for Action: 1. 2. 3. 4. Recommend approval of the preliminary plat and forward to the Council, with conditions. Recommend denial, stating reasons. Table, requesting further information and provide direction to the applicant.

The applicants have proposed a front^ack lot subdivision requiring greater zoning standards for Lot 2 which would not have direct access to a road. Please review Exhibit I, Ordinance 122, Second Series, defining standards for the creation and use of lots which do not abut a public or private road.

"Lot Area, Minimum" - Each lot shall contain the minimum area required for each proposed lot as prescribed in the Zoning Chapter of the City Code. In rural zones not served by sanitary sewer, each lot must contain a minimum of two acres of contiguous dry buildable land exclusive of wetlands, public and private rights-of-way. All rural lots must comply with the City's on-site septic system provisions of the City Code. Application Review Applicants propose a two lot subdivision of a 14.23 acre property owned by Albert Draves. The property is located on the east side of Stubbs Bay Road. The subject property is located in the 2 acre zoning district and is guided by the proposed Comprehensive Plan for rural residential use. The property is not located within the MUSA. An existing residence is located on proposed Lot 2. The new building site would front on Stubbs Bay Road. The applicants have not submitted a grading plan to indicate the location of the driveway to serve the new building site. Access would be available from either the road or access outlot. Front/Back Lot Standards Back Lots are lots that do not front directly to a public or private road. Lot 2 is a back lot and would be required to meet 150% of lot standards for lots in the RR-IB district, except lot width which is only required to meet the zoning district standard.

Outlot A Outlot A is created as an access outlot for a private driveway to serve Lot 2 and potentially Lot 1 . The back lot would continue to access via the existing driveway. It would be appropriate to increase the width of the Outlot an additional 10' to the south to accommodate drainage, snow removal and screening from the building site on Lot 1 . The site plan indicates the outlot ’s southern boundary following the existing driveway. Screening shall be required along the south side of the driveway to protect the building site. Staff has recommended to the applicant it would be appropriate to plant trees south of the driveway to form a natural buffer between the drive and Lot 1. Easements and Covenants 1.Standard drainage and utility easements shall be dedicated on the final plat 1 O' along exterior property lines and 5' along interior property lines. 2.Drainage easements shall dedicated on the final plat and conservation and flowage casements shall be granted for all City of Orono protected wetlands. Orono protected wetlands are those indicav.'d on the Wetland Inventory Map attached as Exhibit D. 3.Wetlands on the property, but not identified in the Wetland Inventory Maps by the City of Orono, but which are under WCA methods shall be subject to a protective covenant filed in the chain of title of the affected property, as an advisory to property owner that said wetland is subject to WCA regulation and/or U.S. Army Corps of Engineers jurisdiction. 4.Covenants shall be filed on the chain of title for each lot as an advisory to future property owners that a primary and secondary drainfield site exist on the property and are protected.

The property in the proposed subdivision requires the use of individual sewage treatment systems. Soil borings and percolation tests were performed by Rusty 01son’s--Soil and Percolation Testing on May 15,2000 to identify primary and alternate drainfield sites on the existing lot and the new lot.. The septic system at 350 Stubbs Bay Road North (existing lot) has been defined as non-compliant by the City of Orono due to the fact that the drainfield does not meet the three-foot separation requirement to the seasonal watertable. The septic system was recently inspected on September 16, 1999 by City Staff and found to be functioning adequately at that time. Two septic sites have been designated. Both septic areas appear to meet all the minimum standards set by the State and the City cf Orono.. The proposed design for the new lot has been designed to show room for two five-bedroom mounds (primary and alternate sites). This design will not require any variances to the State or City code. The design meets all the minimum requirements of the State and City codes. Based on the above information, staff recommends approval of the proposed subdivision. Prior to any building permits being issued for a residence on the new lot, the City will need a more complete design showing specific home location, septic tank location and pump requirements. The City requires the drainfield sites be fenced off prior to any grading or land alteration on these lots 6 • RUN DATE 05/09/60 • HENNEPIN COUNTY PROPERTY INFORMATION SYSTEM PROPERTY OWNERS LIST REPORT NO.

Lot 1 is a back lot and would be required to meet 150% of lot standards for lots in the RR-1B district, except lot width which is only required to meet the zoning district standard. The City has on a number of past applications allowed the use of wetland areas for the third acre of a back lot. Approximately 0.30 acre of wetland is being used in this case to meet the acreage requirement. No area or back lot variance is needed. The surveyed areas noted above reflect the recent wetland delineation, not the prior Conser\'ation and Flowage Easement granted in 1977; there is actually more area defined as wetland today than in 1977 due to State and Federal delineation methods now being used. Yard Requirements: Lot Area Front Yard Side Yard/Adj to Outlot A Side Yard Rear Yard Front Lot Back Lot (Lot 2^(Lot 1) 2.00 Acres 3.00 Acres 50 feet 75 Feet 50 feet N/A 30 feet 45 Feet 50 feet 75 Feet Both lots meet all requirements for subdivision without the need for area, width or setback variances, Septic: Chris Pence, On-Site Systems Manager, has reviewed the septic sites and has determined both the primarv' and alternate drainfield sites meet all City and State standards. The site evaluations was completed by S-P Testing. Inc. The existing sites located on Lot 2 are conforming systems and would not be impacted by the subdivision. H2594 Jim Johnson 2240 Fox Street Class II Subdivision June 19. 2000 Page 2 Outlet A: Outlet A is created as an access outlet for a private driveway to serve Lot 1 and Lot 2. Access outlots are required to be a minimum of 30’ wide to accommodate drainage, snow removal and screening without encroaching on neighboring properties. Outlet A is 109' wide and no additional screening is needed. Lot 1 Driveway Wetland Crossing: The existing Lot 4 was created as part of the subdivision of Bill Kelley ’s Land in 1977. At that time a flowage and consen.ation easement was dedicated over the wetlands as shown on the City ’s protected wetland maps, e,\cept that a 50' corridor on the west side of the property was purposely not included in the easement to allow for future driveway access to the future back lot. The City Engineer at that time approved the legal description, but no comments appear in ihe application review record regarding this intent. In April. 2000, the Building Official granted applicant a permit to continue the driveway to the back lot. The back lot is accessed off the existing driveway as shown on Exhibit J, and crosses the delineated wetland at a width of 20-30'. It required less than 500 cubic yards of fill, therefore a Conditional Use Permit was not needed. However, the driveway permit may have been issued prematurely, because although the driveway crossing is not subject to the easement conditions, it is still subject to Orono’s wetland ordinances, MCWD and Wetland Conservation Act (WCA) regulations, and this is a DNR-protected wetland. There are some exemptions to the WCA regulations under which this driveway may fall, and this is for the MCWD to determine. While the City would likely not be in a strong legal position to ultimately deny a permit to fill for the purpose of creating access to property, the approval process should be completed. Therefore, a condition of preliminary plat approval should be that the City reviews and approves a wetland filling variance, and applicant should be required to provide approvals (or approval waivers) from each of the affected agencies with wetland jurisdiction. Wetlands: As noted above, the existing flowage artd conservation er semenf was dedicated when the underlying property was originally divided ofl' in 1977. The property owner has had the wetlands recently delineated on the properly. Current delineation boundaries sliglitly differ from the original conservation and flow ago easement h> undaries. The flowage and conservation easement should be amended to reflect the new' delineated boundaries. U2594 Jim Johnson 2240 Fox Street Class // Subdivision June 19. 2000 Page 3 Easements and Covenants: I 1. Standard drainage and utility easements shall be dedicated on the final plat 1 O' along the westerly exterior property line (a 5' easement exists per prior plat). Ten-foot drainage and utility easements along the north, south and east boundaries shall be dedicated if they are not already in place per the prior plat. A drainage and utility easement 5' either side of the boundary between Outlot A and Lot 2 shall be granted. No drainage and utility easement along the boundary between Lots 1 and 2 is necessary since this boundary is completely in the wetland. 2. The delineated wetland in the northeast quadrant of Lot 1 which is not identified in the City of Orono Wetland Inventory Map, but which is subject to WCA regulation shall be subject to a protective covenant filed in the chain of title of the affected property, as an advisory to property owner and future owners that said wetland is subject to WCA regulation and/or U.S. Army Corps of Engineers jurisdiction. 3. Covenants shall be filed on the chain of title for each lot as an advisory to future property owners that a primary and secondary drainfield site exist on the property and are protected. Staff Recommendation: Staff recommends approval of the preliminary plat subject to the following: 1. Creation of drainage and utility easements as noted above. 2. Amendment of existing Conservation and Flowage Easement to reflect new delineated wetland boundaries of the Orono-protected wetland. 3. Covenants to be created for protection of drainfield sites and as advisory for WCA non- Orono wetland. 4. Applicant to provide permit approvals or exemption certification from the other agencies with jurisdiction over wetland filling for driveway crossing. 5. City engineer to comment on driveway crossing plan, City to approve a wetland variance for the driveway crossing. 6. Lot 1 subject to standard park dedication fee. 7. Plat subject to all other standard platting requirements. This item woulu proceed to the July 10, 2000 City Council meeting for preliminary plat approval. U2594 Jim Johnson 2240 Fox Street ClasK I!

The property in the proposed subdivision requires the use of on-site sewage treatment systems. Soil borings and percolation tests were performed by S-P Testing, Inc. on April 24, 2000 to identify primary and alternate drainfield «tes on the north lot. The septic system at 2240 Fox Street (existing lot) has a compliant mound septic system. The septic system was recently inspected on May S, 2000 by City Staff and found to be in compliance at that time. There also is an alternate site designed for the property. It was designed by Hakanson, Anderson Associates, Incorporated on May S, 1987. This design still meets all current State and City code requirements. The proposed design for the north lot has been designed to show room for two five-bedroom mounds (primary and alternate sites). This design will not require any variances to the State or City code. The design meets all the minimum requirements of the State and City codes. Based on the above information, staff recommends approval of the proposed subdivision. The City requires the drainfield sites be fenced off prior to any grading or land alteration on these lots im i y t id ^^<^a:h 'ti ?<’S. iJir^^^^.-»y<»<''«^«'<'*»w*>^/>i«v.'fWl i •% wv>:..v>ViV.',sM-•.••JjKj.-'fvAvV V > »' ••.*• » •r Ai'i mmf- k*'.l,V .Vrii'-fV; .♦^ •» i*.'re. > '»:;»• >i A^'^ •. r •• 4 • 4».»m. ^vti’•^v: ♦ ' 4 ^aI'X /*m I AwV - A ' Xf'Tt T •'•vV >■ . ,__________ '•i^ ^ T»l A; I'isar:; -.vjM]m l4lss 0,r--. *:< i»^'rAi ym ^!iiv5l!»rJ4!*i|7[5^^ 2-^ ’ " a>>. 131= ,v, -s;Kjf •i.r. • -'•'• «t r.* » • •• L >*N7*srV.*i '**.> • •/'i V/* / . •■ -i' < *' - *ViV • •'* /•■'/'• V i.

The lots would have access from Garden Lane, which is a platted but undeveloped street. Garden Lane would connect Tonkaview Lane to Outlot A. The road is proposed as a public road to the cul-de-sac. All lots would be connected to sewer and be served with private wells. Sewer is available in Wildhurst Trail and would need to be extended between Lots 2 and 3 to the new road. The 6 proposed lots would average approximately one acre in size. Lots 2 and 3, located at the end of the cul-de-sac, do not have the required lot width for new lots in the zoning district. They would require variances for lot width. Lot S would only have 56' of frontage along the proposed road. Technically, this would require a variance as the width of the lot is narrower adjacent to Outlot A than Garden Lane. Garden Lane will only be developed to the intersection with Outlot A. The proposed access from Tonkaview eliminates a number of problems with the proposal with the sketch plan review. The Garden Lane access will eliminate driveways to Wildhurst, thus protecting the trees along Wildhurst Trail (Lots 2 and 3) and controlling stormwater runoff on site. This application has requires the following: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. Approval of a six lot preliminary plat Construction of a road within the Garden Lane platted right of way Construction of a continued road into Outlot A Acceptance of the road as a public road Lot Width Variances for lots 2,3 and S Sanitary Sewer extension to serve the six lots from Wildhurst Trail Construction of a stormwater management pond (NURP) Approval of a private driveway to serve Lot 6 thru Garden Lane Lot Standards Lot 1 is proposed at 1.03 acres, but does not account for land area dedicated for the NURP pond. The City does not credit buildable area for land that will used as a drainageway or for storage of stormwater. A variance would be required for lot area. Lots 2 and 3 require lot width variances because they are less than the 140* required width at the rear of the front yard setback. Lot 2 is slightly under the required setback. Lot 3 is t^proximately 100* in width at the setback. Both lots are through lots because they would have access to the new road and are adjacent to Wildhurst Trail. Mature stands of trees are located between the building sites on Lots 2 and 3 and Wildhurst. Soils types in the area make it difficult for vegetation to restore itself. The trees should be protected if the lots are developed. 12596 BrensKcll Homes IlSI Wildhurst Trail Class 111 Preliminary Subdivision Jum !9. 2000 paft-2 Lot 4 would be a conforming lot and does have a buildable area that would be suitable for residential construction. Lots would have would have approximately 90* of frontage along the front property line. Garden Lane is not proposed to be constructed north of the Outlot A connection. No direct access would be available from Garden Lane. Lot 6 contains a major ravine, shown on the preliminary drawings as a drainage easement. Section 10.SS, Subdivision 1S (A) (2), "For properties served by municipal sanitary sewer, the minimum lot area may be divided by Flood Fringe lands provided at least one half acre of land not within the protected area is included in one contiguous parcel and both municipal sewer and legal access is available to that building site without encroachment on the protected area.” According to the plan the driveway access would disturb the southern edge of the ravine. The City Engineer is reviewing the impacts of the driveway location on Lot 6. On-site grading and drainage plans must be submitted to the MCWD for review. MCWD permits will be required. Garden Lane adjacent to Lot 6 would not be developed. The land across Garden Lane is part of the Saga Hill Park. The ravine is a natural feature to the area and should be protected. Review Exhibit E half-section map indicating all land dedicated as part of the park and Garden Lane. Grading/Stormwatcr Managcmcnt/Road Detaib (City Engineer Comments) Gradiny/Stormwater Management The road and most of the lots will drain towards the NURP pond shown on Lot 1. The pond outlets to the drainage ravine along the south lot line of Lot 2. There is concern about the drainage being diverted into one location before it drains to the east side of Wildhurst Trail. It is recommended by the City Engineer that all drainage be diverted to the north from the pond and drain into the ravine located in proposed Lot 6 with some form of water retention downstream before it enters Lake Minnetonka. The stormwater calculations indicate the runoff from the site would not increase, post development However, the stormwater currently drains off the property in several locations. The grading plan indicates the drainage will now all be concentrated to the south ravine and out Lot 2. The subdivider should provide a map indicating the runoff pie and post development prior to Preliminary Plat approval. It does not appear access is possible to Lot 6 without impacting the ravine. The preliminary drawings show the drainage easement turning to the south to accommodate a driveway. This would require land alteration and filling of a portion of the ravine to provide access. 12596 Bfcnshcll Homes list Wildhurst Trail Class III Preliminary Subdivision Jmm 19, 2000 patf-S j j -• ■- W''.:* I <4 Road Alignment Although curve data has not been submitted to indicate the design speed of the intersection, it appears the road would not meet the standards for speed. It would be more appropriate to have a T intersection and cul-de>sac Garden Lane rather than have one continuous road ending in a cul-de-sac. Access to lots north of the Development The road is proposed to end at the intersection of Outlot A. There is one lot north of the development that is one acre in size that could be developed sometime in the future. The only access is via Garden Lane. A road ending at Outlot A will not allow ideal access for this property, but would be better than a private drive the entire length of Garden Lane to Tonkaview Lane. Easements/Covenants 1.Standard drainage and utility easements shall be dedicated 5' in width along interior lot lines. 1 O' perimeter drainage and utility easements were dedicated for the entire property when the underlying Heathercroft Addition was recorded. 2. 3. 4. An easement and maintenance agreement shall be recorded for the NURP pond. Drainage easements shall protect all drainageways, including the ravine areas A preservation easement should be granted over the east portion of Lots 2 and 3 to protect the trees. The trees are located on the side and top of a hill. Saving the trees would protect the hillside from erosion and preserve the natural features as a buffer between the new lots and Wildhurst. 5.If Outlot A should be a private road, an easement for egress should be granted in favor of the City of Orono. Park Dedication The Planning Commission should discuss the issue of Padc Dedication. Section 11.62 of the Subdivision Ordinance states **The form of contribution (cash or land, or any combination thereof) shall be decided by the City Council based upon the need and conformance with the Comprehensive Plan." Dedication requirement of 8% of the land being platted or subdivided. The property is located across an undeveloped road from the Saga Hill Pa^. This provides the City of Orono the opportunity to determine if a land dedication would be appropriate. Any land to be dedicated as a requirement of this subdivision could be reasonably a(hq>table for the public purpose of Saga Hill. The Code describes factors used in evaluating the adequacy of proposed dedicated areas shall include size, shape, topography, drainage, geology, tree cover, access and location. <2596 Brenshell Homes MSI Wildhurst Trail CUu III Preliminaiy Subdivuion Jtmt 19. 2000 pagt-4 1 The Council has the option of a cash contribution in lieu of land dedication. In those instances where a cash contribution is to be made by the subdivider, in lieu of a conveyance or dedication of land, the cash contribution to be contributed shall be equivalent to the foir maricet value of the equivalent undeveloped land that would otherwise have been conveyed or dedicated. The City shall account for such ^ds in a special fund named Park Dedication Funds. These funds are to be used only for die acquisition, development and improvement of public paries, playgrounds, trails, wetlands, or open spaces, and debt retirement in connection with land previously acquired for such public purposes. The cash contribution is 8% of the fair market value of the properties. A minimum contribution of $2,900 per lot or a maximum $4,900 per lot would be required if the City requires a cash contribution rather than a land dedication. This item will be forwarded to the Paric Commission for review at their next meeting. Given the location of the park area, it is possible the Park Commission will request a land dedication rather than collecting a park dedication fee. Land around the northerly ravine is most likely a candidate for dedication. Issues for Discussion 1.Should lot width variances be proved for lots not meeting the minimum width requirement on the cul-de-sac? 2.The pond on Lot 1 requires credit for the drainage area to be buildable. Should credit be granted for the lot. Typically, credit has only been given for stormwater ponding areas as part of a Planned Residential Development. 3.Should the Outlot be a public road? The Comprehensive Plan suggests urban residential and urban service areas should be served with public roads. 4.Is the proposed road layout acceptable? Should two roads be provided (Garden Lane/Outlot A) or would it be acceptable to combine into one road? Should Garden Lane be extended further to the north to provide future access to other properties? 5.Would a Park Dedication be appropriate for any portion of the development due to the proximity of the Saga Hill Paric? If so >^t areas may be appropriate for dedication? 6.The road and most of the lots will drain towards the NURP pond shown on Lot 1. The pond outlets to the drainage ravine along the south lot line of Lot 2. There is concern about the drainage being diverted into one location before it drains to the east side of Wildhurst Trail. •2396 Bfcnshcll Homes I III Wildhuist Trail Clan 111 Pnliffiiiiaiy Subdivision Jvm 19. 2000 pagt-S Planning Commbsion Options for Action: 1. 2. 3.

The purposed of the review is to consider the four lot plan that includes three lots requesting variances for lot width. The three lots also request direct access to Wildhurst Trail. A fourth lot with access to a driveway located in the platted, but undeveloped. Garden Lane is also proposed._____________________________ Pertinent Ordinances: 1. Section 11.10, Subdivisions 6,7 and 8 • Purpose of sketch plan review. 2. Section 10.24 - LR>1B zoning district standards. 3. Section 10.56 (Shoreland Regulations) Subdivision 16 Application Summary: The proposal incorporates the 6.86 acre Soskin property east of Garden Lane. Access to the subdivision is proposed via direct access for Lo*s 1,2 and 3 to Wildhurst Trail and an access to Lot 4 via a private driveway located within the Garden Lane right of way. Garden Lane was dedicated in 1921 at a 60* width. All lots meet the minimum 1 acre requirement as shown, although this does not account for any stormwater or other easements which might be needed. Variances would be N2S76 Brenshell Homes MSI WUdhuntTrail Sketch nan Review of a 4 lot subdivision Apran.2000 page-1 1 i Lb.,.lASrirt.aai nra r' required for the three lots that front on Wildhurst as they do not meet the minimum 140' lot width all new lots in the LR-IB zoning district require. It would be contrary to the City of Orono’s Comprehensive Plan and practice to grant variances to create lots that do not meet the minimum requirements in the Code. Review Comments 1. 2. Drainage/Grading Plan. There are two major drainageways within the property. There is a major ravine that intersects the north end of the property, in the propos^ Natural Area and (Please refer to the Site Plan attached as Exhibit C). The City will require a drainage easement over this ravine. A mtyor portion of this property drains to the south and east to a less dramatic ravine area that drains under Wildhurst Trail and eventually to the lake. There is concern about erosion on the east side of Wildhurst Trail due to stormwater flows, and the neighboring property owner west of Wildhurst has, constructed a minimal ponding area to reduce the flow rates which were threatening the driveway access. Stormwater calculations should be submitted for review to ensure additional hardcover in the development will not further increase flow rates. Additionally,privatedriveway accesses are proposed on Wildhurst Trail. There is no indication how the stormwater will be directed and treated prior to crossing Wildhurst. There is a high potential for erosion. City Staff is concerned about any new access to Wildhurst Trail. It is the recommendation of Staff all access for the development is via a new road constructed by the developer through Garden Lane with a cul-de-sac serving any lots within direct access. The topography favors access from Tonkaview. On-site grading and drainage plans must be submitted to the Minnehaha Creek Watershed District for their review at the time the preliminary plan is submitted to the City. The MCWD will review the plans only after receiving preliminary approvalfrom the City. Grading plans submitted with the formal application must include existing and proposed 2' contours. The plans must also include erosion conuvvl, building pad locations and elevation and temporary erosion control during construction. Staff Recommendation Regarding Property Access. Earlier proposals on this site indicated access to the property via Garden Lane. Staff does not support direct access for the lots to Wildhurst. lliere are concerns with additional driveways being located on the road vdien alternative access is available through Garden Lane. Locating the driveways directly onto Wildhurst Trail would not allow stormwater to be treated. The City of Orono will require stormwater ponding that can be treated with aNURP pond being constructed to treat additional run off from the street and within the development. Attached to this report is a proposed lot layout from a preliminary plat application for this property in 1997. The lots were proposed to all have access from a road built in Garden Lane W2S76 Brensbcll Homes III! WildhufstTrail Sketch Plan Review of a 4 lot subdivision AprlU7,200Q page-2 to a second road ending in a cul-de-sac. Exhibit G. 3.Designated Wetlands. There are no designated City or NWI-nuq>ped wetlands within the property. The major ravine and drainageway at the northern portion of the property is not designated on the City's wetland inventory maps. All land not used for stormwater management and road purposes will count towards dry buildable for zoning purposes. 4.Utilities. This property is within the MUSA and sanitary sewer is available from either Tonkaview Lane or Wildhurst Trail. Water supply will be provided by individual private wells. Sanitary sewer will have to be extended approximately 300* north along Wildhurst if that route is used, which is probable since the sewer in Tonkaview would have to be lowered to serve the lots. The developer will bear the cost of sewer installation in addition to a per unit sewer connection charge. The property has not been assessed for sewer. 5.Easements. The City will ask for a dedication of drainage and utility easements at S' width along all internal lot lines and 10' along the proposed road right-of-way. The City will ask for drainage easements over all retention areas, drainageways and storm sewers. 6.Park Impacts . This proposal may not be necessary to providing access to the Saga Hill park. Access and a paricing area have been located off Toiikaview. This sketch plan application will be forwarded to the Park Commission for review at their next available meeting. Given the location of the park area, it is possible Park Commission will want land dedication rather than collecting a fee as part of this subdivision. The developer will need to know M^iat land is to be dedicated. Land in the area of the northerly ravine is the most likely candidate for dedication. Summary of Issum for Discussion 1. Planning Commission should provide applicant with general direction regarding the following issues: Road system configuration, driveways vs. road access for the lots. Shall any access be permitted from Wildhurst. Public vs. private roads. Future access to adjacent lots. Whether lot width variances noted are acceptable. Address any other issues raised by staff or applicant. 2. 3. 4. 5. nS76 Bremhell Homes III!

This would be 8’ from the main front wall of the house, only 4* further than the current existing front door. The eight feet would not bring it out any further than the to| landing of die front stqis. Listed below are reasons why we need this frontal addition. *This is the most efficient way to remodel our home to accommodate our needs. Our current dining area is a 5’ square booth, which we are outgrowing as a family. Our living room area is also very small. * We can not add on to the back of the house for the following reasons: 1. The whole layout of the house would have to be changed, which would double the expense. 2. The well is right outside the back side of the house where the rode is. 3. The garage/driveway is angled so that we could not go straight back. The back comer of the house aligns with approx, the middle of our current garage ^Additional reasons: 1. Our daughter is visually impaired. The Orono sdiod district provides an excdlent qiecial education dqxutment. We will not rdocate her to another district. We are including (rictures which show each of these areas. In the first side view of our front door, you can see that our nei^bors front doorfroof already stidcs out further than our front door.

The existing house is 8.2' from the west lot line. No encroachment closer than 8' is proposed, however the structure will be expanded within the required side setback on both sides of the house. 2.Section 10.03, Subdivision 9 (E) Minimum side yard setback for an accessory structure: Proposed side yard setback: Existing: 15* T 8.5' The existing building is 24' X 24' (576 s.f.). Code requires only a 10' setback for detached garages under 750 s.f. A 24' X 10' addition would expand the building to 816 s.f. thus requiring a 15' setback. Accessory buildings greater than 750 s.f. require a 15' side yard setback. • 3.Section 10.75, Subdivision 4 (C) In any “R” District, where the average depth of at least two existing firont yards for buildings within 150 feet of the lot in question and within the same block firont is less or greater than the minimum fix)nt yard depth required for the district, the required front yard shall not be less than the average d^th of such existing front yards; however, the depth of a firont yard shall not be less than ten feet nor be required to exceed fifty feet. 1 J Coverage: Total Lot Size Total Structural Coverage 21,247 s.f.Allowed: 3,187 s.f.

The right of way line is where the front yard setback is measured from. Homes have been constructed all setback at an average distance of 40-45* from the property line. A line is drawn on Exhibit C to indicate the average distance from Willow Drive South for each home on the east side of the road. The Zoning Code has a provision that states lots in any district, where the average depth of at least two existing front yards or buildings within 150* of the lot and within the same block the required front yard shall not be less the average depth of existing front yards. Technically, the building would need a variance to encroach closer to the street than those on adjacent properties. I • It is believed the intent of 10.75, Subdivision 4 (C) is to create a consistent appearance to the neighboriiood, and would not allow one house to block the view of the street from another. The proposed two story structure would encroach 18* beyond the average distance of adjacent buildings. Garage Location: A second variance is requested to permit an addition to a detached garage. The addition to the garage would create a building larger than 750 s.f requiring a minimum 15' side yard setback. Based on the size of the existing garage the building is only encroaching into the setback by 1.5'. The intent of the ordinance to require a greater setback of 15' fbr larger buildings, is to limit massing close to property lines. Statement of Hardship: The applicants have submitted their Statement of I^Iardship attached at Exhibit O. *2579 James and Candace Kemnr I no Willow Drive South Variances May IS. 2000 patt-3 J J Primary Issues for Discussiou: 1.The typical setback for the neighborhood has been established as 40-45' from the lot line. Should a variance be approved to permit additional encroachment into the setback? 2. The garage is nearly in conformance, 8.5' off the property line, as a 24' X 24' building, however an additional 240 s.f. would require the building to encroach further toward the property line, to a setback of about 7' where IS' would now be required. Staff Recommendation: Staff recommends denial of variances to permit additional structure ahead of the existing setback due to the following: The Municipal Code has a provision that states lots in any district, where the average depth of at least two existing front yards or buildings within 150' of the lot and within the same block the required front yard shall not be less the average depth of existing front yards. Technically, the building would need a variance to encroach closer to the street than the adjacent buildings. The intent is to create a consistent appearance to the neighborhood, and would not allow one house to block the view of the street from another. • The existing residence is 41* from the front property line where 50' is required for lots in the RR-IB zoning district. Approval of variances would enhance a non-conforming building.

Wayzata,MN 55391 952-473-7053 April 12,2000 City of Orono Long Lake, MN S53S6 We are proposing to add an 18’ addition to the entire front of our house, including basement. This addition would give us a dining area, which we currently do not have. Our two children are growing fast and all we have is a five foot square node for all of our dining needs. Our variance is necessary because our neighbmhood and our property are z(Hied for two acre minimum sized lots, but our lot is less than 3/4 of an acre. Our second proposal is to extend our existing garage tO’ toward the back yard to protect and enclose all of our accessories. Eg: boats, lawn mowers, bikes, etc. This would riiminate building an additional storage building on the property, which would divide up our current large yard area we enjoy using.

The applicants were seeking a conditional use permit to replace two existing retaining walls and construct two additional retaining walls within the 0-75' setback. Retaining walls are considered hardcover, therefore a variance is also needed for hardcover in the 0-75' setback area. On May 19,2000, the applicants, applicants contractor. City Engineer and City staff met on site to discuss how to stabilize the existing walls and steps with minimal impact to the property. At this meeting, the City Engineer reiterated his initial observations concerning the proposed new retaining walls. The walls would require substantial grading and he recommended no new retaining walls be constructed. An additional solution discussed was to replace the existing walls in their current location and current dimensions. (See City Engineer Letter- Exhibit D). Brief Summary of Proposed Changes: • Replace the two existing retaining walls and extending the wall that is currently located behind the tree. Eliminating the t^\’o proposed retaining walls by the lakeshore. • The new retaining walls will be in the same location and approximately the same size as the existing walls. (The new walls will be constructed of Keystone, different from what currently exists). Also a slight design change locating the steps in the middle of the walls instead of at the west end reduces the amount of hardcover in the 0-75* setback area. The existing steps and walkway will be removed and replaced with sod. ft2584 Andrew/Tracy Rascher 4705 North Shore Drive Variance/CUP 6/19/2000 Page I 1 r The project as proposed requires the following City approvals: 1.Variance for land alterations within 75' of the shoreline (10.22, Subd. 2; 10.55, Subd. 8, 10.56, Subd. 16[J]). 2. Hardcover within 75' of the shoreline (10.22, Subd. 2; 10.55, Subd. 8, Subd. 16[L]). 3. Conditional use permit for land alteration (10.03, Subd. 21,10.56, Subd. 16 [5]). Engineering Review; The City Engineer has reviewed the proposed retaining wall layout from an engineering standpoint and recommends that replacing the existing walls is an acceptable solution provided they are the same dimension and in the same location as what currently exists. (City Engineer Letter - Exhibit D). Statement of Hardahint The applicants have included their statement of hardship in Exhibit B of the May 15 staff memo. The applicants should also be asked for their testimony regarding this issue. Issues for Consideration ! 1. Will granting of the variances and conditional use permit alter the essential character of the land? 2. Is lengthening the retaining wall behind the tree necessary to halt erosion or prevent tree damage? Applicant’s designer should be asked to define why these new wall sections are needed. 3. Other issues raided by the Planning Commission. Staff Discussion ; There are two retaining walls currently on the property. The higher (closer to residence) wall is approximately 61 V2 in length and 2' in height. The lower wall is approximately 61 Vz in length and 4' in height. The new retaining walls should meet the existing dimensions. Vegetation should be planted to limit the visible impact from the lakeshore and control possible erosion. The lengthening of the retaining wall behind the tree is inconsistent with the goals and intent of the Comprehensive Plan. Perhaps the wall can be shortened on both ends and still be able to accomplish its purpose. U2584 Andrew/Tracy Rascher 4705 North Shore Drive Variance/CUP 6/19/2000 Page 2 rf Staff Recommendation; The applicants worked with City staff to design a plan that meets City code. The current plan is acceptable to staff and staff recommends approval of variances and conditional use permit for replacement of the two existing retaining walls in the 0-75' setback area and replacement of the wall behind the tree. Staff recommends denial of lengthening the retaining wall behind the tree. The walls shall be of the same dimension and location as what presently exists. Staff also recommends vegetation be planted for screening. Options for Action: 1. Recommend approval of variances and conditional use peimit for replacement of existing walls and denial of extending the retaining wall behind the tree. 2. Recommend denial of variances and conditional use permit for replacement of existing walls and extending the retaining wall behind the tree. 3.

Based on our observations, our comments dated May 9. 2000 still apply. One additional solution we discussed is to replace the existing walls. We feel that replacing the existing walls is acceptable provided the new walls are of the same dimensions and in the same locations as the existing walls. This will serve to minimize grading activity and disturbance to the existing steep slope. Silt fence should be installed prior to any construction/restoration activity to minimize sediments from washing into the lake. Any disturbed areas should be revegetated immediately following construction to stabilize the slope and minimize erosion. It may be necessary to use fiber blankets on any steeper disturbed slopes to protect the newly seeded areas until the vegetation has been established. Please contact me at (651) 604-4863 if you have any questions regarding this matter. Yours very truly, BONESTROO. ROSENE. ANDERLIK & ASSOCIATES, INC.

Beisch indlcb^ her back door is in the middle of the deck, and if the deck is reduced to the size requested, it woUVJ only leave her 19 inches to step out and go down the steps. Weinberger stated rtV^lculated to be approximately 4.5 feet wide from the edge of the deck to the house. Beisch stated she would be owy with that. There were no public comments re^q^ing this application. Beisch noted the adjoining property ownb^will be constructing a new driveway, which will drain the water towards her property. Lindquist suggested the City Engineer review th^minage in this area. Beisch inquired whether the five foot side yard setbacItvMuld be reduced. It was the consensus of the Planning Commission to requi^he five feet side yard setback. Smith comiTiented that the Planning Commission appears to b^n favor of the five feet rather than the three feet side yard setback. Beisch Indicated she was fine with the five feet. Weinberger commented the adjoining property owner was attempting to utili^the existing footprint and had some other setback issues In the back yard. Stoddard moved, Smith seconded, to recommend approval of Application #25^ 343S Livingston Avenue, granting of a side yard setback to permit construction of a one«stall detached garage to be located five feet from the property line based on Applicant s statement of hardship, and subject to the size of the rear deck being reduced to the size Indicated on the site plan.

(«10) #2584 ANDREW AND TRACY RASCHER, 4705 NORTH SHORE DRIVE - CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT AND VARIANCES, 9:05 p.m. - 9:20 p.m. Page 25 m ORONO PLANNING COMMISSION Monday, May IS, 2000 Andrew and Tracy Rascher, Applicants, were present. Bottenberg stated the Applicants are requesting a conditional use permit to replace an existing retaining wall and install two additional retaining walls within the 0-75 foot setback. Since retaining walls are considered hardcover, a variance is needed for hardcover in the 0-75 foot setback area. Bottenberg indicated the proposal would be inconsistent v^'th the City's Comprehensive Plan, with the City Engineer recommending that no new retaining walls be constructed on the site between the home and the lake. It is the City Engineer's opinion that the retaining walls can be repaired and restored with minimal disturbance to the existing slope. City Staff is recommending approval of the variances and conditional use permit for repair of the existing retaining walls in the 0-75 foot setback area, but denial of the proposed new retaining walls based on the goals and policies cited in the City of Orono's Community Management Plan. Jeremy Bakken, Builder, stated due to the slope of the back yard all the way down to the lake and the old deteriorating condition of the existing walls, in his opinion it would be more cost effective to build new walls rather than repair the existing walls. Bakken stated the amount of grading involved in the repair is equal to that which would occur with construction of the new walls. Bakken stated the existing walls are not controlling the drainage and are unsafe. Rascher commented they would like to replace the existing walls due to the fact they are very unstable and do not do the job they were Initially constructed to do. Rascher btated they would like to build some retaining walls which are more stable. Smith inquired whether they have had a chance to look at the letter from the City Engineer. Bakken stated they are not proposing to change the existing grade until they get closer to the lake. Bakken stated he would not recommend limestone walls since they need to be replaced periodically and tend to be unstable over time. Mrs. Rascher staled they are attempting to reduce the amount of erosion Into the lake, noting that currently nothing is being filtered at this point. Rascher commented the current condition of the steps are unsafe due to the nails which are exposed In the timbers and the unstableness of the Page 26 i I ORONO PLANNING COMMISSION Monday, May 15,2000 nagstone walls. Rascher stated they would like to have a safe access to the lake and remove the safety hazard that currently exists due to the fact they have a young child who will be in this area. Smith stated she can appreciate the safety concerns and the fact that flagstone steps tend to become tippy over time. Smith stated the City of Orono does want people to have safe access to the lake, but that there are some limits that must be imposed on what people can construct. Smith stated since she is not an engineer, she cannot comment on the structural issues, but that the Planning Commission tends to take into account the recommendations of the City Engineer when deciding what is acceptable. Rascher stated they ara proposing to decrease the steepness of the slope. Smith stated there are other lots in Orono with steep slopes, and that the Planning Commission must look at the recommendations of the City Engineer. Smith commented she has visited the sit 3 and is not totally convinced new retaining walls are needed. Smith stated the City likes to encourage residents to keep the area as natural as possible and to limit construction down by the lake. Smith commented the Planning Commission must look at what it will take to maintain what is existing and how to provide safe access down to the lake with a minimal amount of construction. Smith stated it is the policy of the City to stay away from a lot of terraced walls and to leave the area as natural as possible. Lindquist stated he is not capable of determining whether what currently exists Is right or whether the retaining walls should be replaced. Lindquist stated he does have a problem with retaining walls being located in the 0>75 foot setback as a general rule, and suggested the Applicants speak with the City Engineer to see if something can be worked out which will be acceptable to all panics. Lindquist stated he would be hard pressed to go against the recommendations of the CHy Engineer. Lindquist suggested the matter be tabled to allow the Applicants time to discuss this matter further with the City Engineer. Page 27 ------------- —J ORONO PLANNING COMMISSION Monday, May 15,2000 ^ r r Smith commented that the engineering issues should perhaps be explored further, and agreed that the Applicants should perhaps speak with the City Engineer to discuss his recommendations. Weinberger stated the City Engineer will speak with the Applicant if so desired. Weinberger suggested the Applicants contact Wendy to arrange a meeting with the City Engineer. Mrs. Rascher inquired what would happen If the application Is tabled. Smith stated the Applicants would probably reappear before the Planning Commission at their June meeting if they are able to resolve the issues. Smith stated the Applicants could request additional time if so needed by submitting a letter asking for an extension of the time limit. Bottenberg indicated the 60 day time limit expires on June 19th, which is the date of the next Planning Commission meeting. Mrs. Rascher requested the application be tabled at this time. There were no public comments regarding this application. Smith moved, Lindquist seconded, to table Application #2584, Andrew and Tracy Rascher, 4705 North Shore Drive, to allow the Applicant time to submit revised plans. VOTE: Ayes 5, Nays 0.

Current walls and stairs are in a state of failure and are dangerous. A. The nails in timbers are exposed. We are concerned over the safety of ourselves, our young baby whom will be crawling and walking soon, and the potential for quests harming themselves; leading to lawsuits. B. Flagstone in stairs has become very unstable. Walking on them poses a constant threat of loosing balance or tripping over them due to their poor condition. C. Our home is on a very steep slope and it is essential to maintain the integrity of the walls to ensure minimal erosion into the lake. We are responsible homeowners who would like to keep our property in good condition with the necessary improvements. By replacing the existing retaining walls before they collapse we will be able to prevent further sediment from contaminating the lake. WiA the action of walls lower down the slope we will be able to lessen the steep grade and control water runoff speed and direction, ensuring that runoff is free of sediment before reaching the lake. We sympathize with the cities Land Alteration guidelines. However, we believe these modifications are in everyone’s best interest, especially in preserving the lakes integrity. We are prepared to add any additional planting materials to hide the retaining walls as to Sincerely, 0-&L Andrew & Tracey Rascher \ . •% *. •' ^ 5'•'a f i 4705 North Shore Drive /.9 • • • • Sfcdt: r - 20* % J • . ; • 4705 North Shore Drive KSCWnON tot 1.

The Harza S^udy, the 208 Water Quality Management Study, and Orono's Surface Hater Management Plan all recommend this approach to permanent water quality management for Lake Minnetonka. In addition, the Orono Plan goes on to identify individual wetlands and marshlands that require protection as part of the City's storm water management program. It is the policy of this plan to effectuate the policies and recommen­ dations of the 1974 Orono Surface Hater Management Plan. 7.PROTECTION OP THE CITY'S MARSHLAND, WETLANDS AND DRAINAGEWAYS SHALL INCLUDE PROTECTION OF ADJOINING LANDS AND PREVENTION OF DRAINAGE, FILLING, DREDGING OR WETLAND'S VEGETATION REMOVAL. Ordinances will establish setbacks for all land alteration or construction. Wherever P®**1^1* * the City will acquire open space and flowage easements for conservation of these lands. PROTECTION OF LAKE RESOURCES WILL ALLOW REASONABLE ACCESS, USE AND ENJOYMENT WHILE PREVENTING OVERCROWDING AND EXCESSIVE ENCROACHMENT. In conformance with Mn. DNR Shoreline Management regulations for recreational development lakes, the City will prohibit overly dense within 1,000 feet of Lake Minnetonka. Lake use regulations promoted to limit excessive boat density and overuse of sensitive bays. Land use regulations will be developed to provide reasonable control over building density, land alteration and lakeshore encroachment '* 9.LAKE SHORELINES WILL BE PROTECTED PROM ALTERATION. Natural vegetation in shoreland areas will be preserved insofar as practical and reasonable in order to retard surface runoff and soil erosion, and to utilize excess nutrients. Clearcutting will be prohibited. In areas of soil or wave action erosion, natural stone rip rap shoreline protection will be encouraged. 10. LAKE BED ALTERATIONS WILL BE DISCOURAGED BECAUSE OF ADVERSE SHORT-TERM ^D LONG-TERM EFFECTS ON WATER QUALITY. Dredging of lake beds releases *®®'**'^* otherwise trapped nutrients and silt which adversely affects water quality for long periods of time. Dredging of new ®|'**'*'*^* ®* inlets will not be approved to provide riparian access where none existed naturally. Dredging will be permitted in limited circumstances only where absolutely necessary to maintain existing natural riparian access permanently lost by something beyond the con rol of the landowner. Periodic low water conditions or the owner's desire for deeper draft watercraft are not sufficient reasons for disrupting sensitive lake beds. CMP 3-20 FNVIRONMENTAt JUNE, 1980 15. EROSION CONTROL PLANS AND PROGRAMS WILL BE REQUIRED IN ALL LAND ALTERATION PROJECTS. Each contractor will be required to minimize the probability of aoil erosion on site and/or siltation damage downstream. The smallest amount of bare ground shall be exposed for as short a time as possible. Temporary ground cover will be required until permanent cover is provided. Sediment traps will be required on slopes and between construction sites and public roadways. Fill must be compacted and stabilized for permanence. URBAN AREA POLICIES FOR NATiJRAI RFSOURCE MANAGFMFNT 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. LAND USE STANDARDS WILL LIMIT THE IMPACT OF URBAN ENCROACHMENT ON LAKE MINNETONKA. Minimum lot widths will space out docks and structural encroachments while increasing areas of natural vegetation. Lake use regulations will limit the number of boats per property and the amount of public waters available for private docking and boat RETENTION OP NATURAL VEGETATION WILL LIMIT THE IMPACT OP URBANIZATION AS VISIBLE FROM THE LAKE. Building heights will be limited to less than the typical tree height. Minimum green belts will be provided with prohibitions against clearcutting or excessive thinning of vegetation. Natural vegetation will be preserved on slopes. Retaining walla will be discouraged except when absolutely necessary to prevent erosion, in which case they will be screened with natural vegetation. DIRECT RUNOFF INTO THE LAKE WILL BE MINIMIZED. Standards will be established and maintained to limit the amount of impervious hardcover P^f®P®ttion to closeness of the shoreline. Maximum hardcover will be limited to 30% of each parcel within 1,000 feet of the shoreline pursuant to Mn. DNR recommended shoreline practices. ALL EXISTING URBAN WETLANDS WILL BE MAINTAINED AND PROTECTED FOR SURFACE WATER RETENTION AND FILTRATION. The existing urban runoff exceeds the capacity of the urban marshes to assimilate all nutrients, therefore additional pollution hazards would be created if any wetlands would be lost. Additional steps to improve nutrient assimilation include on~site retention on all new developments and storm water recycling through the existin<; marshes. CITJf MAINTENANCE PRACTICES WILL BE DESIGNED TO IMPROVE STORM WATER QUALITY. Salt use for winter street treatment will be minimised. Snow removal practices will locate temporary storage sites where they wi 1 not overload the natural drainage system or where foreign matter, especially salt, will not directly enter a marsh or lake. Spring cleanup will promptly remove road sands and salts before' environmental damage occurs. \ CMP 3-22 r I AND US£ JUNE, 1980 3. 4. 5. 6. r\r*trpTnoMPNT DENSITY HILL BE LIMITED THROUGHOUT THE CITY TO A LEVEL WIIICH WILL NOT OVERLOAD THE NATURAL SURFACE WATER DRAINAGE AN FILTRATION SYSTEM. Orbanixation increases the speed and quantity of surface runoff decreasing the water quality. Developed land use densities will be determined by comparison between known levels of volume and pollution qeneration and known marshland capacity for ponding and nutrient assimilation. ONLY ECONOMICALLY PRACTICAL METHOD OP FLOOD PROTECTION AND STORM and from alteration or destruction by filling, grading, excavation or drainage. Wherever poss e, the City will acquire open space and flowage ease- nents for conservation of these lands. PROTECTION OF LAKE RESOURCES WILL ALLOW *®ASONABLE J^CESS, USEMW enjoyment WHILE PREVENTING OVERCROWDING AND EXCESSIVE ENCROACHMENT. zn conformance with Mn. DNR Shoreline Management regulations for recreational development lakes, Orono will prohibit overly dense development within 1,000 feet of Lake Minnetonka. Lake use regulations will be promoted to limit excessive boat density and overuse of sensitive bays. Land use regulations will be developed to provide reasonable control over building density, land alteration and lakeshore encroachment. LAKE SHORELINES WILL BE PROTECTED FROM ALTERATION. Shoreland areas, whether bluff, beach or floodplain, are sensitive environmental features with significant impact on lake water quality, aesthetic values and land use function. These sane factors act to draw development which can be destructive if not properly regulated. Natural vegetation in shoreland areas will be preserved insofar as practical and reason­ able in order to retard surface runoff and soil erosion, and to utilize excess nutrients. Clear- cutting will be prohibited. In areas of soil or vsve action erosion, material stone rip rap shoreline protection will be encouraged. CMP 4-13 1 imuiStL JUNE, 1980 11. A SIGNIFICANT AMOUNT OF NATURAL WOODLANDS AND OPEN SPACE WILL BE RETAINED ON EACH PROPERTY. Retention of the neturel environment requires careful siting and preservation of trees and open space on each urban property. 12. LAND USE STANDARDS HILL LIMIT THE IMPACT OF URBAN ENCROACHMENT ON LAKE MINNETONKA. Minimum lot width will space out docks and structural encroachments while increasing areas of natural vegetation. Lake use regulations will limit the number of boats per property and the amount of public waters available for private docking and boat storage. 13. RETENTION OF NATURAL VEGETATION WILL LIMIT THE IMPACT OF URBANIZATION AS VISIBLE FROM THE LAKE. Building heights will be limited to less than the typical tree height. Minimum green belts will be provided with pro­ hibitions against clearcutting or excessive thinning of vegetation. Natural vegetation will be preserved on slopes and retaining walls will be discouraged except when absolutely necessary to prevent erosion, in which case they will be screened with natural vegetation. RURAL LAND USP PQLICIPR 1.ORONO'S RURAL SERVICE AREA WILL BE RESERVED FOR PERMANENT LOW-DENSITY RESIDENTIAL LAND USE. Orono's rolling rural area is not suitable for commercial agriculture. Likewise, the delicate balance of storm water nutrient loading vs marshland assimilative capacity preclude expansion of the urban service area without major environmental problems for Lake Minnetonka. Therefore, the ideal land use for that portion of Orono located outside of the Urban Service Area (MUSA) is the planned low-density rural residential land use. Commercial and industrial uses will not be permitted in the rural area. CMP 4-19 >i^. % J/ J Bonestroo l^osene ^ B Anderlik & |\ \ Associates Engineers & Architects May 9,2000 Sonestroo. Roscnt.

MN 55323 Re: Rascher Retaining Wall File No. 139-98-000 Dear Wendy: We visited the site at 4705 North Shore Drive today to review the existing site conditions. The area located between the home and the lake is landscaped with various short retaining walls constructed of stone and timber. Several large boulders have been placed along the shoreline. A series of stone steps provides access from the home to the lake. AH existing landscaping in this area appears to have been in place for some time. The entire area between the home and the lake is mostly vegetated with visual no evidence of slope instability. It is our understanding that the property owner wants to install a series of retaining walls between the home and the lake as shown on the plan you provided. The construction of these walls as shown on the plans would require substantial regrading on the existing steep shoreline. It has been City policy to discourage the construction of retaining walls along the takeshore and to encourage a natural looking frontage. Wc recommend that no new retaining walls be constructed on the site between the home and die lake. It is our opinion that the existing retaining walls could be repaired and restored with minimal distuibance to the exisdng slope. Silt fence should be installed prior to any construction/restoration activity to minimize sediments from washing into the lake. Any disturb^ areas should be revegetated immediately following construction to stabilize the slope and minimize erosion. It may be necessary to use fiber blankets on any steeper disturbed slopes to protect the newly seeded areas until the vegetation has been established. Please contact me at (651) 604-4863 if you have any questions regarding this matter. Yours very truly, BONESTROO. ROSENE. ANDERLIK & ASSOCIATES. INC.

The interior of the existing bam will be remodeled and a deck and porch will be added to the bam near the paddleball courts. Woodhill Country Club has also requested sewer connection for the bam although it is outside of the MUSA.

The principal structure for anv of the above listed uses shall be 100 feet or more from anv abutting lot in an "R” District and accessory structures shall be a minimum of fifty feet from anv lot line. Review of Request The applicant proposes construction of a 19* X 52' addition to the bam located near the paddleball courts at the Woo^li Country Club. The addition would increase the size of the building from 36* X 56' = 2,016 s.f. to 3,004 s.f. The primary concern is how the use of the building will impact sum>unding residential areas. The bam is being expanded by a total of 988 s.f. which would result in no change to the use of the property. Impact to adjacent residential areas around the Country Club would be minimal. The Country Club shill be advised approvals granted with the driveway access to the property would restrict contractors to using only the enu^ce from C.R. 15. In the RR-IB zoning district a country club is allowed by a conditional use permit. Several conditional use permits have been approved for Woodhill, with the most recent being to permit construction of a pump house, maintenance building and approving access to the Club through a second driveway. Attached to this memo is a project description completed by Mark A. Albrecht. Only preliminary grades have been shown by on the plans. The City Engineer shall review the final plans prior to any land alteration and construction to ensure drainage will continue to flow in the same direction and proper erosion control measures approved. Sewer Extension Sewer is available to portions of the Woodhill property. Connection is to the Club House which is located in the City of Wayzata. Woodhill would like to connect the bam and potentially the maintenance buildings to sanitary sewer. The areas of the Country Club, in Orono, are not in the MUSA. The 2000 Comprehensive Plan update has not projected the property to be within the MUSA. Expanding the MUSA to include the Woodhill property would place property that is zoned 2 acre rural residential into an urban services area. This is contrary to the policy of the City as the City of Orono has required land zoned for rural residential development to be served by rural services. Only the City Council can approve sanitary sewer service to buildings outside of the MUSA. I' H2589 Woodhill Coun^ Club 200 Woodhill Avenue Conditional Use Permit Jtme 19, 2000 poit-2 A Only the City Council can approve sanitary sewer service to buildings outside the MUSA, hence this is an issue that should be left for Council review. (To sununarize the issue: in 1996 the City was granted by Met Council the ability to connect up to 50 existing residences adjacent to existing sewer lines outside the MUSA. The City Council established that such residences must have an existing failing system with no replacement possibilities. The Council has also considered that existing non- residential uses such as churches should also be connected to sewer when feasible. The Woodhill bam does not meet the criteria for use of the SO units because it is not a residence, and while it has a non-conforming system due to the 3' separation issue. At the same time, however, this is ftmctionally an institutional/kitchen/quasi-commercial type of use which should be connected to sewer. Staff will be recommending to Council that the bam be allowed to connect to sewer, which is on the same tax parcel as the bam and only about 400' away.) State Code requires a minimum setback to the septic tanks of 10' for stmctures. Staff has measured the tanks to be approximately 28' from the bam. A19' addition to the building would place the tanks approximately 9' from the new stmcture. This does not meet the State requirement for setback distance to the building.

Application Summary: The applicants are proposing to remove the existing deck on the rear of the residence and concrete sidewalk on the southwest side of the residence. The existing deck is rotting and located within the Dakota Rail right-of-way. The {q>plicants wish to replace it with a brick paver patio within their property lot lines.

It is in poor condition and the applicants wish to replace it with grass to help with drainage. The sidewalk is located in both the 0-75' and 75-250' setback areas. The removal of the sidewalk will result in a decrease of hardcover in the 0-75' setback area to 1,512 s.f. (55.0%), where 1,592 s.f. (57.9%) exists and 0 s.f. (0%) is allowed. The paver patio and removal of sidewalk will result in a decrease of hardcover in the 75-250' setback area to 643 s.f. (64.95%), where 707 s.f. (71.4%) exists and 247.5 s.f. (25%) is allowed. Statement of Hardship: The applicants have included their statement of hardship in Exhibit B. The applicants should also be asked for their testimony regarding this issue. Issues for Consideration : 1. The structural coverage on the lot is not increasing, and hardcover is decreasing. 2. In 1994, the property owner at 3345 Crystal Bay Road was granted a “0 setback” variance to allow a shed to be located at the rear property line and outside the Dakota Rail right-of-way. 3. The City does not have authority to grant approval to replace the deck in its current location because part of it encroaches into the Dakota Rail right of way. Applicant has no other location feasible for a patio, and the proposed 170 s.f. patio is not excessive in size. 4. The lot is extremely undersized for LR-IC. 5. Other issues raised by the Planning Commission. Staff Recommendation : Staff recommends approval of the variances to allow the applicants to remove the concrete sidewalk and to remove and replace the existing deck with a paver patio.

Section 10.24, Subd. 5 (B): Side Yard Setback : The minimum requirement for side yard setback in the LR-IB zoning district is 10*. Variance Request: To permit a side yard setback of 3* for a second story expansion where 10' is required. (Existing first story on the north property line is 3* from the lot line). Application Summary: The applicants are proposing to change the use of a 4* x 18' section of the existing covered deck and adding a second story to the back (street) portion of the existing residence. The scope of the project involves removing the roof, changing a 4' x 18' section of the deck (south side) into living space, extending the deck (outside) wall up to a second story which will be over the back portion of the existing residence. The second story addition will be approximately 255 square feet. The first story walls and foundation will remain. The roof line will be higher than presently exists on the back portion of the residence, but within City zoning code requirements. Average lakeshore setback is not an issue with this application. Background: The plans and description of the request reflect this proposed addition plus another on the street side of the residence. After reviewing the application, staff discussed hardcover calculations and structural coverage on the lot with the applicant. Explaining to the applicant the hardcover calculations were not changing, however the structural coverage on the lot was increasing #25P/ Gina Hansen 383 Park Lane Variance 6/19/2000 Page ! ti j and already over the allowed 15®/o by city zoning code. The applicant decided to go forward with the second story addition and the deck conversion to living space, but not the addition to the back side of the residence. This eliminated variances for hardcover and lot coverage. The attached proposed floor plans submitted will change; however they were included in the report to depict the changes to the south side of the residence. The structural coverage on the lot will not be changing because the portion of the deck being changed into living space is currently covered and considered structure. The existing lot coverage is 2,064.16 s.f. (21.7%), above the allowed 1,425 s.f. (15%). The north side of the house is located 3' from the side lot line where 1 O' is required. The house was built prior to zoning standards being adopted. The remodeling and raising of the roof line will not change the 3’ from the side lot line. The hardcover in the 0-75 ’ setback area is not changing. The existing 0-75' hardcover is 391 s.f. (20.7%). The hardcover in the 75-250' setback area is not changing. The existing 75-250' hardcover is 3,749 s.f. (65%). Statement of Hardship; The applicants have included their statement of hardship in Exhibit B. The applicants should also be asked for their testimony regarding this issue. Issues for Consideration; 1. The structural coverage on the lot is not increasing, a portion of its use is changing. 2. The hardcover calculations in 0-75' and 75-250' setback area are not changing. 3. Will the partial second story obstruct the view or light and open space enjoyed by adjacent properties? Plaiming Commission should consider whether raising of the roof line will adversely affect either adjacent neighbors. 4. There are areas of landscaping with plastic underneath that should be removed to lower the hardcover calculations in the 75-250 ’ setback area. Applicant has already removed a large section of hardcover on the south side between the deck and property line. (See survey). 5. Other issues raised by the Planning Commission. #259/ Gina Hansen 583 Park Lane Variance 6/19/2000 Page! J 1 • i Staff Recommendation: Staff makes the following recommendations; If Planning Commission concludes that the impacts on the neighborhood are minimal, a recommendation for approval of the variance for side setback should be conditioned on the existing foimdation be inspected by a structural engineer to determine if it is able to handle the additional weight of the addition before applying for a building permit.

We are expecting our first child and need to expand the living spaces. The current proposed plans would allow for 3 bedrooms (4 with an egress window in the basement), 1 full bath, 2 - V* baths and a 'A bath. The proposed plans provide for approximately 720 additional square feet (233 for both the basement and first floor and 2S5 for the second floor) without the addition of any hardcover. General: Currently, the home is a I 'A story. The current proposed plans are to remove the existing roof on approximately 'A of the house (street side) and convert to a full two story. Additional details are listed below. South Side: The current proposed plan includes either an extension of the existing basement or a crawl space approximately 4 ’ wide and 18' long. This would replace an existing deck with footings, which is under the current roof line. In other words, it does not include an extension of the roof. There is no addition of hardcover, just replacement. The decision to utilize a full basement or crawl space is a financial one. This is a very tight area and the excavation costs for a full basement may ^ exceedingly high. V ^ast Side (Street): The current proposed plan includes an extension of the existing basement of I Approximately 5’ wide and 34 ’ long. This would provide an entry, small porch, 'A bath as well as ^ ( Y bathroom and closet for the main floor bedroom. The extension of the basement is currently /landscaped with rock underlain with plastic. This extension would be basement and first floor only with a shed roof. There is no addition of hardcover. Just replacement. Other things to consider: The existing well needs to be abandoned and a new well installed. The current well is at least as old as the home, which was built in 1969. Currently, there are four vendors working with the state and providing a quote. The state has reviewed the lot and possibilities. They have provided a proposed plan which will require a successful pressure test of the sewer line. This test is being conducted on May 15*. If the pressure test cannot be successfully completed, the current plan is to replace the sewer line to the main with PVC to enable a success^l pressure test. The existing well pit is located in the landscape on the east side, which is propped to be new basement. To further complicate matters, there is no accessibility for a drilling rig to the lake side of the home. This issue will be resolved prior to any building permit requests. The current central air conditioning unit is ammonia and also needs to be replaced. The pad is currently installed on the east side and the proposed plans are to leave it in the same place (or within feet). 10 ’ separation between buildings - The plans include a front porch near to the left of the entry way. I have not included this on the survey with the proposed changes because it does not allow for 10 ’ separation between the home and the garage. If there are any alternatives (i.e., sheetrock and fire rated doors) which would allow for this porch, please advise. A If- ' • 4 HARDSHIP/DESRIPTION OF UNUSUAL PROPERTY CONDITIONSThe existing structure of the home only provides for one legal bedroom. The lot is long and narrow. We have developed plans, which will allow for additional bedrooms and square footage without increasing the hardcover. We have attempted to remain in compliance with all other requirements to the maximum extent possible.The survey shows the foundation size of the home but the roof line actually extends beyond Ae foundation on the south side as there is a walkway. I have included pictures to provide additional details. The plans include a front porch near to the left of the entry way. I have not included this on the survey with the proposed changes because it does not allow for 10’ separation between the home and the garage. If there are any alternatives (i.e., sheetrock and fire rated doors) which would allow for this porch, please advise. We have also removed a large area of hardcover on the east and south side to help control erosion and runoff towards the lake. This area is shaded in blue on the survey. \.y 3 • •••t« •haedcover calculation worksheet SETBACK ZONE: (CIRCLE ONE) 0-75’250-500’ TYTgriNG HARDCOVER IN ZONE A.

I ORONO PLANNING COMMISSION Monday, May 15. 2000 draft ROLL: The Orono Planning Commission met on the above date with the following members present: Acting Chair Sandra Smith, Dale Lindquist, Janice Berg, Jay Nygard, and William Stoddard. Commissioners Elizabeth Hawn and Daniel Kluth were absent. The following represented City Staff: Senior Planning Coordinator Mike Gaffron, Zoning Administrator Paul Weinberger, Assistant Zoning Administrator Wendy Bottenberg, and Recorder Jackie Young. City Council Representative Barb Peterson was present. Acting Chair Smith called the meeting to order at 6:30 p.m. OLD BUSINESS: PUBLIC HEARINGS (#1) #2569 W. DUNCAN MACMILLAN AND WILLIAM WALDRON. 1860 FOX STREET, AFTER-THE-FACT CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT, 6:31 p.m. - 6:43 p.m. Mark Buetow, Caretaker for the MacMillans of 1860 Fox Street, appeared. Weinberger stated the City became aware in February or March that there had been excavation of a pond located on 1700 Fox Street. The pond was actually constructed by the properly owner to the south in a cooperative effort between the two property owners. The survey indicates the pond is actually located across the east property line, with Craigbank Associates being the owner of the second properly this pond has impacted. Weinberger stated an after-the-fact conditional use permit is required, with no variance being necessary lor the pond since it is not located within a City protected wetland. Weinberger noted some portions of the wetland are possibly located within an area considered to be Type I wetlands, which does require a wetland permit. Typically the Watershed District will review these applications following preliminary approval by the City. Y/einberger stated since the land alteration Is greater than 500 cubic yards and the dredging occurred over a property line, a conditional use permit is required. Weinberger indicated since the area has been dredged and not filled, the pond will not impact drainage in the area. Should the City approve the conditional use permit, the wetland shall be subject to a protective covenant filed in the chain of title of the affected property to serve as an advisory to the current and future property owners that the wetland is subject to WCA regulation. City Staff recommends approval of the conditional use permit subject to the following conditions: 1. Applicant applies for a land alteration permit. 2. A protective covenant is filed in the chain of title of the affected propedies as an advisory to propedy owners that the wetland is subject to WCA regulation. 3. A final as built survey indicating finished elevations of the pond is submilled to the City and accepted by the City Engineer. 4. Verification that a MCWD permit has been approved for the pond construction. Page 1 ORONO PLANNING COMMISSION Moiulay, May 15, 2000(#2569 Duncan MacMillan, continued)Mark Buetow. 177 Meadow Lane. Long Lake, indicated he has been employed by the MacMillans for the past 11 years as their caretaker. Smith inquired whether he wished to add anything to Staffs report. Buetow indicated this project was basically a beautification project to clean up the area. Smith inquired whnt future plans the applicant has for this area in terms of how it will be maintained and what type of vegetation will be planted in this area. Buetow stated the Applicant would like to keep this area fairly natural, with some steps being taken to prevent the banks from eroding. Buetow indicated they are willing to work with City Staff prior to commencing any future work in the area. Smith inquired whether the Applicant would be wrilling to enter into an agreement regarding the vegetation in this area. Weinberger stated typically the City allows the natural vegetation to restore itself in the area, which a majority of it has. Weinberger indicated the granting of easements in the area would also protect it from future vegetation removal and land alteration. Smith commented the City of Orono likes its residents to have a respect for the natural environment and to avoid the placement of rocks along the banks. Smith inquired whether the Applicant would have any problems with the conditions listed in the report. Buetow indicated he was fine with the conditions. There were no public comments regarding this application. Stoddard inquired what the City's policy was concerning Item 5 under the Wetland Alteration Guidelines. Weinberger indicated the pond has been constructed in a low area located within the wettands and probably does not meet all the criteria. Stoddard commented he does not understand how they can excavate a small portion of a larger wetland. Weinberger slated the wetland is a non-protected wetland as defined by the City of Orono. City Staff will need to check with the Watershed District whether they have any issues with this pond. Gaffron stated the City generally will not approve a conditional use permit for a decorative pond in a City-protected wetland unless such pond is designed to meet minimum wildlife habitat specifications. Gaffron staled since this is a non-protected wetland, the guidelines would generally not apply to this pond. Stoddard requested that Item 5 be reviewed in the future. Smith encouraged the Applicant to keep this pond as a natural vegetative area, Buetow indicated he does not have a problem with that. Page 2 iiiifr^I a I ^ ii ORONO PLANNING COMMISSION Monday, May 15, 2000(#2569 Duncan MacMillan, Continued)Stoddard moved, Lindquist seconded, to recommend approval of Application #2569, W. Duncan MacMillan and William Waldron, 1860 Fox Street, for an After>the*Fact Conditional Use Permit to allow for after-the*fact dredging of a pond in excess of 500 cubic yards, subject to the four conditions outlined in the April 17, 2000 Planner's Report. VOTE: Ayes 5, Nays 0. NEW BUSINESS (#4) #2578 DAVID AND LORRAINE LUNDBERG, 900 DAKOTA AVENUE - VARIANCE, 6:44 p.m. - 6:52 p.m. David and Lorraine Lundberg, Applicants, appeared. The Certificate of Mailing and Affidavit of Publication were noted. Bottenberg staled the Applicants are proposing to construct a 26 by 26 two story garage addition to the existing residence. The addition will consist of a two stall garage on the first floor and a master bedroom and bathroom on the second floor. The proposed addition will tie into the existing first and second story floor plans with the bedrooms located on the south end of the residence. The proposed garage addition will use the existing driveway. Bottenberg noted the property is serviced with sewer and a private well, which dictated the locations of the garage addition. The well is located on the north side ol iiie house and the sewer line runs parallel to the driveway. The adjacent resident to the south is approximately 60 feet from the adjoining property line. The prooerty is located within 1000 feet of Long Lake. Bottenberg stated the addition will result in an increase of structural coverage on the lot to 6.6 percent, where 4.5 percent exists and 15 percent is allowed. The addition will also result in a reduction of hardcover coverage in the 500-1000 foot setback area to 12.5 percent, where 12.6 percent exists and 35 percent is allowed. A variance to the side yard setback is required to permit a side yard setback of 11 feel where 30 feet is required. City Staff is recommending approval of the variance for side yard setback. Lundberg indicated they currently have a one car luck under garage and one bathroom. Lundberg stated they would like to construct the addition to accommodate a growing family. Smith inquired what will happen to the shed that exists on the property. Lundberg stated the one shed in the back will be removed. Lindquist inquired whether a letter from the neighbor has been submitted on this application. Lundberg staled Tim and Julio Harrison dkl .sign and submit a letter to the City. Bottenberg concurred that Tim and Julie Harrison did submit an acknowledgement letter. Smith indicated the letter from Tim and Julie Harrison acknowledges that they have had an Page 3 ORONO PLANNING COMMISSION Monday, May 15, 2000(#2578 David Lundberg, Continued)opportunity to review the planr- for the proposed improvement and understand this letter is not requesting them to approve or oi^approve this project but merely to confirm to the Planning Commission and City Council that we are aware of the plans for this project.There were no public comments regarding this application.Smith commented that the Planning Commission cannot conclude that the neighbors are in support of this project but are merely acknowledging that they are aware of the proposed project. Lundberg stated he has spoken with his neighbors regarding this project. Lindquist stated he would like a letter in support of this project before the application appears before the City Council. Lindquist moved, Berg seconded, to recommend approval of Application #2578, 900 Dakota Avenue, granting of a side yard setback to permit the construction of a 26 by 26 foot two story garage addition to the existing residence, subject to the submittal of a letter in support of the project by Tim and Julie Harrison. VOTE: Ayes 5, Nays 0. (#5) #2579 JAMES AND CANDANCE KEMNA, 1110 WILLOW DRIVE SOUTH - VARIANCES, 6:53 p.m. -7:10 p.m. James Kemna, Applicant, was present. The Certificate of Mailing and Affidavit of Publication were noted. Weinberger stated the Applicant is requesting variances to permit an addition to the front of the house and outdoor porch that would encroach further into the 50 foot front yard setback and into the 30 foot side yard setback and variances to permit an addition to the detached garage that encroaches into the 15 foot side yard setback required for accessory structures of 750 to 1000 square feet. Weinberger indicated the lot consists of approximately one-half acre in the RR-1B zoning district, which has a minimum two acre lot size. Weinberger stated tne addition to the front of the residence would bring the front of the residence approximately 22 feel from the roadway. The entire addition and existing house is within the 50 foot front yard setback and the 35 foot side yard setback. The additional 240 square feet that is proposed would change the footprint of the building to over 750 square feet, which requires that the building must meet the minimum setback to the property line of 15 feet. The variances being requested would permit a front yard setback of 23 feet where 41.1 feel exists and 50 feet is required, and also to permit the addition within the 30 foot side yard setback. The existing house is 8.2 feet from the west lot line. No encroachment closer than 8 feet is proposed. The second variance is to the side yard setback to permit a building over 750 feet. Code requires a 15 foot setback for buildings over 750 square feet. The 24 by 10 foot addition would expand the building to 816 square feet, thus requiring a 15 foot setback. The third variance required would be to permit the building to be located closer to Willow Drive than the average distance of the properties located around it. The intent of the ordinance is to keep the buildings in a conforming look within the neighborhood and not block the view of the adjoining residences by having a residence located closer to the street. Weinberger noted the lots in this area are smaller in size and generally do not meet the front yard setback. This encroachment into the front yard setback would result in a Page 4 ORONO PLANNING COMMISSION Monday, May 15, 2000 (#2579 James Kemna, Continued) residence significantly closer to the street tl-an the residencr" 'jrr jnditig it. Weinberger stated the proposed addition would not exceed what is allowed for structural coverage and meets the hardcover requirements since the property is located within the '■horeland setback area. The Applicant has indicated a hardship due to the growing demands of his family and the need for additional living space as well as the proposed location of the addition being the most logical place for the addition. City Staff is recommending denial of the variances to permit additional structure ahead of the existing setback due to the encroachment into the fro.it yard setback and enhancement of a non-conforming building. Kemna stated he is proposing to construct the addition onto the existing residence iri order to allow room for a dining area, which his present residence does not have. Kemna stated his daughter is visually impaired and is in need of a lab setup at ho<rm;, and due to the small size of the bedrooms, they need to add additional living space to the residence. Kemna indicated he has spoken with his neighbors regarding this project, who are not opposed to the addition. Kemna stated they are proposing the addition in this location to avoid the necessity of rearranging^ their entire floor plan by going out the back of the house. Kemna stated he would like to expand his garage in an effort to avoid the need for a storage shed. Smith commented the Planning Commission would like the Applicant to be able to address his needs, but noted the Applicant will need to address City Stafrs concerns. Kern ia stated he could reduce the size of the addition to 18 feet in an effort to reduce the encroachment Kemna indicated he nu.-; fv-.-!' nad any plans prepared due to the costs Involved. Kemna stated his residence is located uie end of the road with a number of trees. Kemna noted his property was originally constructe;? -in 1932. Smith recommended the Applica'it consider constructing an addition from the rear of the home. There were no public commentr». Lindquist indicated he is in ag'eement with Staffs recommendations, particularly in regards to the house. Kemna inquired whether the Planning Commission would be wil'ing to compromise on the size of the structure. Lindquist stated in his view any adoition to the house would need to be constructed at the rear of the house in order to preserve the uniformity of the neighborhood and to avoid having a residence located significantly closer to the road than the surrounding residences. Lindquist suggested the Applicant discuss Staffs recommendations with his builder. Kem' indicated if is he required to construct the addition to the rear of his hoir.e, he would he forced to change his untire floor plan. Smith suggested the Applicant bring the garage into conformance. Smith indicated she would like Page 5 ORONO PLANNING COMMISSION Monday, May IS, 2000 (#2579 James Kemna, Continued) to see a plan that brings the project closer into compliance with the front and side yard setbacks. Stoddard stated he is in agreement with Lindquist and that the addition needs to comply with City Code as much as possible. Weinberger stated the '^’oplicant would need to meet the 15 foot side yard setback for the garage since the proposed garage is over 750 feet. If the garage is under 750 feet, the Applicant would need to meet a 10 foot setback. Nygard commented he does have a problem with granting the variance since the hardship is supposed to be created by the land. Kemna commented he has a limited amount of land available to work with between the house and the garage. Berg commented she understands the Applicant's dilemma and the difficulty of trying to construct the addition at the rear of the house. Smith pointed out the Applicant witi need to consider the possibility that Willow may eventually be widened or have shoulders added, which would lessen the setback from the road to the residence even further. Smith stated the Applicant has the option of having the Planning Commission table this application to allow the Applicant to revise his plans, or vote on the application. Smith noted due to the comments by the Planning Commission members, it appears the application will be denied. Weinberger noted the time iimit on this application will not expire prior to the next Planning Commission meeting. Weinberger stated the Applicant will need to submit a letter requesting the 60 day time limit be waived in the event he needs more time to develop new plans. Kemna indicated he would like his application to be tabled. Lindquist moved, Smith seconded, to table Application #2579, James and Candace Kemna, 1110 Willow Drive South, to allow the Applicant time to revise his plans. VOTE: Ayes 5, Nays 0. Smith recommended the Applicant work with City Staff on these issues. SCHEDULED PUBLIC HEARINGS (#2) #2585 THOMAS AND KATHLEEN McCAFFREY, 4265/4355 CHIPPEWA LANE, SUBDIVISION OF A LOT LINE REARRANGEMENT, 7:10 p.m. - 7:28 p.m. Thomas and Kathleen McCaffrey. Appitcants, were present Joyce Shemanek, Neighbor, was present. The Certificate of Mailing and Affidavit of Publication were noted Weinberger staled the Applicants are proposing to rearrange a common lot line to transfer 1.80 Page 6 VI ORONO PLANNING COMMISSION Monday, May 15,2000 Joyce Shemanek, Neighbor, was present. The Certificate of Mailing and Affidavit of Publication were noted. Weinberger stated the Applicants are proposing to rearrange a common lot line to transfer 1.00 (#2585 Thomas McCaffrey, ConUnued) acres from the property located at 4355 Chippewa Lane to 4265 Chippewa Lane. The existing 4355 parcel is a legal conforming 'ot consisting of 6.92 acres and having a lot width of 370 feet. The transfer of 1.8 acres will result in a 5.12 acre parcel meeting the minimum lot size for the zoning district. The proposed lot division would transfer approximately 125 feet of frontage to the adjacent parcel, leaving only 245 feet of frontage where 300 feet is required. The second lot is almost one acre in size, with the transfer increasing the lot size to 2.80 acres. The lot would have 327 feet of frontage on Chippewa Lane. Weinberger stated vrith the lot line reai rangement. the buildings would now meet the setback requirements for the zoning district but would continue to bo below the minimum lot size for this zoning district. Weinberger stated the lot line rearrangement is being proposed in this location due to the location of some septic sites on the 4265 parcel west of the house. The sites are located within the area to be transferred to the adjacent property. Additional testing was not completed on the property to identify additional sites on the lots. It is possible the septic sites could be relocated to another site on the property. The second parcel also has two septic sites available near the east property line for the 4355 lot. Weinberger noted the proposed lot Hne rearrangement does not increase the density between the two lots. Under the existing zoning, no future subdivision is possible. The lot would require a variance for lot width since the lot would become substa^*\ard. The lot line rearrangement would result in tho 4355 lot being reduced in lot width to less tnan 300 feet and make it nonconforming. Weinberger noted some of the other lots in this area do not meet the 300 foot frontage requirement. The Applicants are also proposing to create a ten foot wide walking access to the Luce Line Trail for the 4265 lot. City Code does not address creating lots with walkways to access public land. Weinberger noted they have not heard any opposition to this walkway from the DNR. McCaffrey stated they are attempting with this lot line rearrangement to bring the lots more into compliarKe with tho five acre zoning concept. McCaffrey stated they v^re only informed of the 300 foot frontage last week, which came as a surprise. McCaffrey stated out of the seven lots on Chippewa Lane, only one complies with the required frontage and one with the required acreage for this zoning d’otrict. McCaffrey stated ho is unsure what the intent of the frontage requirement is. McCaffrey noted they have spent a considerable amount of money on surveys, title searches, and septic testing on this lot lino rearrangement. Smith inquired why the Applicants are proposing to do this lot line rearrangement. McCaffrey stated thf'v wnot to preserve their natural o*»sthetics. McCaffrey stated the Shemaneks are planning to retiio u .o sell their property in the net future, which would allow for expansion of their lot as well as legal access down to the Luce Lino. McCaffrey stated they also need to acquire some additional land to the west in order to accommodate a mound septic system in the future. Page? ♦ ^ 1 ORONO PLANNING COMMISSION Monday, May 15, 2000 (#2585 Thomas McCaffrey, Continued) Joyce Shemanek encouraged the Planning Commission to approve this lot line rearrangement, noting they are doing something which will help their neighbor. There were no further public comments regarding this application. Lindquist commented that the City will still end up with two non-conforming lots regardless of how the lot is rearranged. Smith inquired whether this would become a flag lot in the future. Weinberger stated based on the existing five acre minimum lot size requirement for subdividing in the RR-1A District, the updated Comprehensive Plan is not proposing any changes to the density in this area. Stoddard noted the Planning Commission has approved a walkway path down to the Luce Line in the past Weinborger stated the DNR usually has concerns when people propose to remove trees down by the Luce Line in order to construct a walking path and gain access to the trail. Weinberger stated that should not be an issue in this case. Smith commented that the City should be advising Applicants that are proposing to construct a walkway to the Luce Line that they are not entitled to remove any trees or vegetation within the DNR's easement Weinberger stated the Applicant has been informed of the DNR ovmed property in this area. Stoddard moved, Nygard seconded, to recommend approval of Application #2585, Thomas and Kathleen McCaffrey and Fred and Joyce Shemanek, 4265 and 4355 Chippewa Lane, for a subdivision lot line rearrangement VOTE: Ayes 5, Nays 0. (#3) #2587 RICHARD R. RUDD, 4575 WAYZATA BOULEVARD, SUBDIVISION FOR PLATTING A PUBLIC ROAD ADJACENT TO A PROPOSED SIX LOT PLAT LOCATED IN CITY OF MEDINA, 7:29 p.m. - 7:48 p.m. Kris Rudd, Applicant, was present. Weinbetrger stated the Applicant is proposing to plat a segment of a road that is intended to be a public road over a lot located at 4575 Wayzata Boulevard West. The total length of the road located in Orono would be approximately 450 feet, ending in a cul-de-sac at the east end of the property. Weinberger noted this lot is adjacent to the City of Medina. Weinberger stated the entire concept for this development involves having access off of Town Lino Road, • vhich is located in the western most part of Orono. with a double road entering the development, going through the Rudd property, and ending in a cul-de-sac Issues relating to access have been raised in the past relating to properties located to the east of the proposed road. Page 8 I eamBAiftiK*. ■ ORONO PLANNING COMMISSION Monday* May IS, 2000 (#2587 Richard Rudd, Continued) Currently the four lots located in Orono are all served by a shared driveway that has existed for some time over the Burlington Railroad. Weinberger stated the road has operated in the past with a license agreement between the railroad and the properties. Weinberger stated it is unclear whether there has ever been legal access given to the property owners, which in essence means the railroad could shut the access down if they so choose. Weinberger indicated the railroad is not proposing to shut the access down at this time, with an objective of Mn/DOT to eliminate direct driveway access to Highway 12. Weinberger stated the proposed road would provide driveway easements to the cu-de*sac, with two lots to the north having access to the road via easements. This option would eliminate the access over the railroad to Highway 12. Mn/OOT is also proposing to close the intersection between Town Line Road and Highway 12 due to safety concerns, which has not been approved at this time. Weinberger stated the proposed road would provide access to a proposed six lot plat in Medina and to the four existing lots in Orono. The Medina property is zoned for single family residential use, which will be served by City sewer and wa’ Dr. No utilities will be extended to properties in Orono. Weinberger stated the City still needs the following information; 1. Final grading and erosion control plan set. 2. Stormwater calculations for the drainage area that will drain towards the pond in Orono. 3. List of all easements that are recorded on the Rudd property. 4. Easement documentation Indicating legal access to the Slaughter and Hickey properties over the Fraizer property. 5. Final construction plans for the road. 6. Final plat drawing for recording the right-of-way. 7. Applicant shall dedicate to the City an easement for the NURP pond. City Staff is recommending approval of the preliminary plans. Rudd stated Weinberger has given a good summary of the issues involved in thi j application. Jane Slaughter, 4545 Wayzata Boulevard, stated she is in favor of the road but would like to see the road extended somewhat. Slaughter stated she will need to maintain a longer driveway with her neighbor, but is still in favor of the road. Slaughter stated the railroad is required to give a 30 day notice if they intend to close that access, which causes some concern because her property would then become legally landlocked if ti^nt access is denied. Slaughter commented she has been turned down by 13 title companies because the tease agreement is not legally recognized. Weinberger stated these lots do not have direct access to what would be considered a public road, and without the access across the railroad, there is no way to guarantee lor>g-term access to the properties Representatives on behalf of the railroad have indicated they are not in favor of providing a permanent easement to open this up as a public entrance due to safety and maintenance issues. Weinberger acknowledged this access does potentially create a hardship for the neighbors in that their properties could eventually become landlocked unless some o^her access is provided. Weinberger stated the railroad has indicated tiiey uro willing to leave this access open until another access is provided. Weinberger stated it is not the objective of the Planning Commission to discuss long-term access Pages ORONO PLANNING COMMISSION Monday, May 15,2000 (#2587 Richard Rudd, Continued) to these properties, which is being addressed by the platting of this road. Weinberger stated the issue before the Planning Commission is whether the platting of this road within the development is appropriate. Smith commented that what is being proposed makes sense, noting she is sympathetic to the landowners that could potentially be landlocked unless easements are provided up to this new road. Weinberger stated the property owners would need to obtain private easements from the other property owners to gain driveway access. Smith noted that Lot 4545 would need to obtain an easement from Lot 4555. Weinberger stated they currently do have easements over a portion of that lot, but would be required to obtain additional easements all the way across to Town Line Road prior to the road construction. Smith commented that there appears to be a 20 foot easement already in place connecting to the new road. Slaughter stated there also is a 33 foot easement that exists. Weinberger stated there is documentation showing almost overlapping easements which would provide access back to the property as well. Weinberger stated there apparently is a cartway which exists in this area, which has never been legally recorded and was never used. Weinberger stated there is a 33 foot easement from 1910 which could provide driveway access as well. Berg inquired what easement Slaughter intends to use, the cartway or the 33 foot easenient. Slaughter stated she would use the easement along t .>wn Line. Lindquist stated the Planning Commission is simply approving that section of road that is being proposed tonight and does not really have any jurisdiction to hear any other issues relating to easements or the railroad access. Smith commented that there appears to be some options for the property ov^ers relating to access, but noted the Planning Commission is not in a position to hear those matters at this time. There were no further public comments regarding this application. Lindquist moved, Smith seconded, to recommend approval of Application #2587, 4575 Wayzata Boulevard, Subdivision for Platting a Public Road Adjacent to a Proposed Six Lot Plat Located in the City of Medina, subject to the seven conditions contained in the May 15,2000 Planner's Report VOTE: Ayes 5, Nays 0. NEW BUSINESS, CONTINUED (#6) #2580 TIMOTHY PATTRIN, 1360 RAILROAD AVENUE - VARIANCE. 7:49 p.m. - 7:55 p.m. Timothy Pattrin, Applicant, was present. Page 10 ORONO PLANNING COMMISSION Monday, May IS, 2000 (#2580 Timothy Pattrin, Continued) Bottenberg stated the Applicants are proposing to construct a 624 square foot attached garage addition to the north side of the existing residence. The property is located on the comer of Railroad Avenue and Spates Avenue, with the existing driveway being utilized to provide access to the proposed garage. A variarice to the street side yard setback is required to permit a side yard setback of 23 feet where 50 feet is required. The proposed garage will be located 23 feel from Spates Avenue, which is not a heavily traveled street. Bottenberg stated the existing garage will be remodeled into a master bedroom/bath, laundry room and a quader bath. The property is serviced with a well, which is located on the east side of the residence. The garage will result in an increase of structural coverage on the lot to 9.76 percent where 6.94 exists and 15 percent is allowed, which is well below what is allowed. The garage will also result in an increase of overall hardcover coverage to 29.9 percent where 23.7 percent exists and 35 percent is allowed, virhich is also below what is allowed. City Staff is recommending approval of the street side yard setback. Pattrin indicated he has no comments regarding his application. There were no public comments relating to this application. Lindquist moved, Nygard seconded, to recommend approval of Application #2580, 1360 Railroad Avenue, granting of a variance to street side yard setback for property located at 1360 Railroad Avenue. VOTE: Ayes 5, Nays 0. (#7) #2581 JOHN AND KRISTIN GEHRING, 1687 CONCORDIA STREET - VARIANCES, 7:55 p.m. • 8:40 p.m. (Berg is not present in Council Chambers) John and Kristin Gehring, Applicants, were present. Noil Trainor, neighbor, was present, and Tom Palm, neighbor, was present. Bottenberg stated the Applicants are requesting variances to tear down an existing residence and build a new residence in approximately the same location on the lot. The proposal involves moving the new residence back a few feet to be more in alignment with the adjacent properties and bring the residence more into compliance with side yard setbacks and structural lot coverage. Bottenberg stated the Applicant has indicated a desire to work with City Staff on this matter ar>d has submitted a number of plans in order to bring the proposal more in compliance with City Code. A variance to lakeshore setback is required to permit the principal structure to be located 42 feet from the lakeshore where 75 feet is required. A second variance to hardcover in the 0-75 feel setback is also required to permit 26.7 percent hardcover wttere zero percent is allowed and where 26 3 percent exists. Another variance to hor^cover in the 75-250 foot setback is ulso required to permit 26.2 percent of hardcover where 25 percent is allowed and 24.7 percent exists. The new residence will also result in an increase in structural coverage to 15 percent where 13.4 percent exists and 15 percent is allowed. Pago 11 I ORONO PLANNING COMMISSION Monday, May 15, 2000 (#2581 John Gehring, Continued) Staff has indicated to the Applicant that an average lakeshore setback variance is not required; however the location of the proposed residence does not meet ONR minimum recommended standards for General Development Lakes of 50 feet. Gehring stated there are five other properties with approximately the same setback from the lake, and that their request is basically to make their residence stay at the same basic setback. Gehring indicated he has spoken with his neighbors regarding this project, who have not expressed any concerns. Smith noted a letter has not been received from the DNR regarding this application. Smith inquired virhether the DNR has been informed of this application. Bottenberg stated the DNR has been informed of this project and has not expressed any concerns. Gehring stated at the time they constructed their garage in 1995, they did work with City Staff and attempted to put together a comprehensive plan on this property. Gehring commented they were told that their plans for what they were proposing in the future were somewhat irrelevant because they were not in a position to approve everything at that time. Gehring noted they have taken steps in the past to keep hardcover to a minimum, such as reducing the width of the driveway and a smaller width sidewalk, both of which are below standards. Smith inquired at what setback the Applicant is proposing to build his residence. Gehring stated they are proposing to build 42 feet from the lake, which is the average of the two adjoining properties. Gehring stated the property to the south has a ten foot deck plus three foot stairs at the rear of the residence, which reduces the selback to the lake. Tom Palm, 1685 Concordia Street, stated the comer of the house as it exists now is located 1.6 feet from the property line, noting he would be very much in favor of squaring up the house and widening the access to the lake. Palm commented his property was constructed 39 feet from the lake, with a ten foot deck. Palm stated by allowing the Applicant to construct at 42 feet from the lake, it would bring the residence into alignment with the other adjoining properties and improve the drainage in the area. Palm indicated he is in support of this project. Neil Trainor, 1675 Concordia Street, indicated he recently purchased this property from his parents who lived in the residence for quite some < me. Trainor stated a majority of the problem with the setback has resulted from the lakesho a eroding ever th'> years, noting that approximately ten feet of lakeshore has eroded away over the years. Trainor stated the location for the proposed residence is good due to the alignment with the other adjoining properties. Smith inquired why the Planning Commission did not require Palm to meet the 50 foot setback at the time he constructed his residence in 1995. Palm stated no ono was in favor of a two story building, which vi^uld block the neighbors' view at the 75 foot setback, so the Planning Commission elected to allow the hou.«o to bo built at 39 feet to make it more in alignment with the other homes in the area. Sioddard commented he has concerns with the amount of hardcover proposed in the 0-75 foot setback as well as the amount of hardcover in the 75-250 foot setback. Stoddard stated the rage 12 ORONO PLANNING COMMISSION Monday, May 15,2000 (#2581 John Gehiing, Continued) Applicant may need to look at reducing the amount of hardcover. Gehiing inquired whether he was being asked to relocate his garage to reduce hardcover. Smith stated the Planning Commission on new construction generally requires the Applicants to comply with the structural and hardcover requirements. Smith stated the Applicant should attempt to lower the hardcover in the 75-250 foot setback to 25 percent, which is what is typically allowed on new construction. Stoddard stated the Planning Commission should consider whether the hardcover should exceed what is existing in the 0-75 foot setback. Lindquist stated his preference would be to locate as little hardcover as possible in the 0-75 foot setb^, but in this case due to the location of the other residences in the neighborhood, it would not be logical to move the house further back from the lake. Lindquist noted the cabins in this area have existed for approximately 100 years. Gehring commented that these lots are all 50 foot lots, which means you are limited in what you can do with the lot. Nygard indicated what creates a hardship is the topography of the land. Stoddard stated he would like to see the residence constructed closer to the lake than the • squired 75 foot setback due to the location of the other residences in the neighborhood. Stoddard indicated he would like to see the hardcover in the 0-250 foot setback reduced. Stoddard noted this is new construction, and suggested the Applicant consider his options. Gehring commented they have attempted to limit the size of the house while still being able to have four bedrooms. Gehring stated in his view the narrow lot width creates a hardship as well as the hiqh water table, which does not allow for construction of a basement. Stoddard stated the Applicant would be allowed 2,200 square feet of living space under the structural coverage limits. Nygard inquired whether the sidewalk from the garage is necessary. Gehring stated the garage is located 100 yards from the residence. (Berg returns at 8:15 p.m.) Lindquist stated the Applicant is allowed 15 percent structural coverage. Stoddard stated he does not have a problem with the proposed structural coverage but would like to see the amount of proposed tiordcover reduced in the 0-250 foot setback. Stoddard commented the intent of the hardcover limits is to help protect the shoreland. Stoddard stated the Applicant is allowed 2,212 square feet of hardcover in the first two zones. Nygard commented that people also tend to add additional structure in the future, which the Applicant should also consider. Page 13 OROINO PLANNING COMMISSION Monday, May IS, 2000 (#2581 John Gehring, Continued) stHSuial Applicant should not exceed what Is existing now on hardcover and ^hring staled the residence originally was a cabin and was not constructed as a year-round residence. Gehring stated the residence does not adequately serve a familv a four Rphrinn ctaioH at the time they built the garage, they were not given much direction from City Staff at that time. Mrs. Gehring stated their current house is 30 feet wide along the lakeshore and 44 7 feet deeo The l^dquist commented he does not want to see any increase in hardcover or structural coveraoe over wtwt^rrently exists, with the residence being lined up with the other residences in the neighborhood. ^hring stated they are requesting an increase of 13 square feet in the 0-75 foot sethark ann 138 square feet in the 75-250 foot setback, which basically is the size of a small bedroom. Sm p?o^rty^ basically requesting the same amount of hardcover as what exists on the Nygard stated the Applicant will need to address the hardcover and structural coverage issues.

Weinberger commented the City Council may elect to send it back to the Planning Commission if the Applicant submits revised plans. Gehriii ’j commented his understanding was that his application would bo approved if the hardcover is reduced. Lindquist stated his motion is recommending approval contingent upon the Applicant reducing the amount of structural coverage and hardcover to what is presently existing on the property. Stoddard inquired virhether the Planning Commission should reconsider the motion. Nygard moved, Stoddard seconded, to reopen the discussion. VOTE: Ayes 4, Nays 0, Berg Abstained. Gehring requested to amend his application to reflect the amount of hardcover currently existing. Smith stated in the p.: it the Planning Commission has recommended approval of applications where there is only a slight reduction in hardcover or structural coverage required with the u^erstanding the Applicant will work with City Staff to revise his plans to bring it into conformance with the Planning Commission's directives. Smith indicated she would like to poll the Planning Commission members to see whether that would be appropriate in this case. The majority of the Planning Commission indicated they would be agreeable to making approval contingent upon a reduction in the amount of hardcover and structural coverage proposed to what currently exists on the propedy. Stoddard indicateo he would not be in favor of making approval contingent and would prefer to see the Applicant continue to work with City Staff prior to approval. Lindquist indicated he would be willing to make a motion to allow 3,484 square feet in hardcover and 2,150 square feet in structural coverage, which is what exists now. Nygard requested the Applicant limit the amount of structural coverage on this lot to 2,150 square feet regardless of the location of the new residence. Gaffron commented the Applicant is looking at reducing approximately 51 square feet of hardcover. Bottenberg stated an error was made in the calculation of hardcover and the amount existing is 3,384 square feet rather than 3,484 square feet. Lindquist noted the amount cf hardcover to be reduced would be 151 square feet rather than 51 square feet. Lindriuist moved, Smith seconded, to recommend approval of Application #2581, John and Kristin Gehring, 1687 Concordia Street, with the understanding that the new hardcover will no* exceed the existing 3,384 square feet and that the stnictural coverage Page IS ..... 1^-4 ORONO PLANNING COMMISSION Monday, May 15,2000 (#2581 John Gehring, Continued) will not exceed 2,150 square feet, and to grant a variance to the lakeshore setback to permit the principal structure to be located 42 feet from the lakeshore. VOTE: Ayes 5, Nays 0. Nygard moved, Stoddard seconded, to rescind the motion recommending denial of this application. VOTE: Ayes 5, Nays 0. Weinberger noted that typically the Planning Commission has required any hardcover in the 0-75 foot setback be applied to the other setbacks. Weinberger inquired whether the approval would be subject to the condition that there would be no further hardcover allowed on this property Weinberger noted the Applicants are not at the 35 percent maximum amount in the 250-500 foot setback. Smith indicated that a restriction on further hardcover would be a condition of approval. Nygard stated the Applicant will not be allowed any additional hardcover on his property. (#8) #2582 FRANCIS AND SUSAN ANN KOUBSKY, 4784 NORTH SHORE DRIVE - VARIANCES 8:40 p.m. - 8:48 p.m. Francis and Susan Koubsky, Applicants, were present. Botlenberg stated the Applicants are proposing to remove the existing access at North Shore Drive construct 3 gdrago/room addition and deck at the northeast comer of the existing residence ^^e deck will replace an existing one that will be removed. Access to the property will now be via Park Avenue (addressed as Tonkaview Lane) along the north lot line due to the steep topography at North Shore Drive which makes access during the winter months a hazard for both the Applicants and the motorists who drive on North Shore Drive. City Staff is recommending the Applicants change their address to Tonkaview Lane with the relocation of the access to the property. Bottenberg noted the garage/room addition meets all required setbacks except for the street setback at the north lot line, which will require a variance to permit a front setback of ten feet where 35 feet is required. Bottenberg noted the structural coverage and hardcover on the lot is increasing but is still below the allowable limits. City Staff is recommending approval of the variance tor front yard setback and the relocation of access to "Park Avenue". Staff is further recommending that the neighborhood erect a nameplate sign on Tonkaview Lane. Smith indicated she did view the site. Mrs. Koubsky stated they have real safety concerns in the winter due to their steep driveway and a blind spot that exists, which is the reason for the relocation of the access. Koubsky stated the survey ,hows that the road is located ten feet from the property line, v^rhich is incorrect Page 16 ORONO PLANNING COMMISSION Monday, May 15,2000 (#2582 Francis Koubsky, Continued) Lindquist commented the Planning Commission understands that where the roads are platted are not necessarily where the roads are actually located. Lindquist stated the Planning Commission needs to look at where the platted roads are in determining the setbacks. There were no public comments regarding this application. Nygard moved, Berg seconded, to recommend approval of Application #2582, Francis and Susan Ann Koubsky, 4784 North Shore Drive, granting of a variance to a front yard setback and relocation of access to "Park Avenue". VOTE: Ayes 5, Nays 0. GafTron stated the neighbors in this area need to look at the issue of addressing, with the residents located on Tonkaview and Park changing their address to a Tonkaview address rather than a North Shore address. Gaffron stated City Staff could send a letter out asking if the residents are interested in making that change. Smith noted that was a staff recommendation which was not included in the motion. Gaffron stated City Staff will pursue this issue further. (#9) #2583 ROXANN BEISCH, 3436 LIVINGSTON AVENUE • VARIANCES, 8:48 p.m. - 9:05 p.m. Roxann Beisch, Applicant, was present. Weinberger stated the Applicant is proposing to remove the existing detached garage and construct a new garage, with the existing garage being located over the rear property line and on the west property line. The Applicant has stated a hardship exists in that the current garage has a dirt floor and is located on the lowest point between the adjacent properties, which causes the garage to become unuseable following a rain storm. In the winter months the ground swells with frost and the doors cannot be opened. Weinberger stated the option of filling in the low portion of the property was discussed, but this option was not pursued since it is the only location between the two properties that collects water runoff and should probably remain in order. The Applicant is proposing to construct the new garage approximately 12 feet off the property line, which places the garage ahead of the low area and allows for a foundation or slab underneath the garage. This location would allow the garage to remain dry and shorten the length of the driveway. The garage would bo located five feet off the side property line. The logic behirtd requiriro .^t least a five foot setback is a result of the Code requirement to maintain a minimum setba.^. t;> «•: other structures of ten feet. The adjacent garage is currently located three feet off the cy '-ne. and if replaced In the future, it should be located five feet from the property line resulting in a ten foot separate between the two buildings. Weinberger stated the proposal would require some additional hardcover on the property for a total of 43.4 percent in the 500-1000 foot lakeshore setback. The Applici^i .1 is proposing to remove 328 square feet of hardcover. City Staff is recommending reducing the size of the existing rear deck. Staff is also recommending approval of the application. Page 17 ORONO PLANNING COMMISSION Monday, May 15,2000 (#2583 Roxann Beisch, Continued) Smith inquired what the dimensions of the garage are. Weinberger stated the proposed garage is 20 by 14 feet or 280 square feet. Weinberger pointed out that this lot is not as deep as the other lots in the area. Smith inquired whether the new garage would b'* adjacent to the garage on the other property. Weinberger stated the new garage would be located further up from the other garage. Beisch stated the front of the garage is even with the overhang on the back side of her house. Beisch stated she does have a question relating to the side yard setback, noting the garage would still be 18 feet from the adjoining residence if it was located three feet from the property line. Smith stated the City needs to maintain proper distances between structures in order to allow for emergency vehicle access. Beisch indicated her back door is in the middle of the deck, and if the deck is reduced to the size requested, it would only leave her 19 inches to step out and go down the steps. Weinberger stated it is calculated to be approximately 4.5 feet wide from the edge of the deck to the house. Beisch stated she would be okay with that. There were no public comments regarding this application. Beisch noted the adjoining property owner will be constructing a new driveway, which will drain the water towards her property. Lindquist suggested the City Engineer review the drainage in this area. Beisch inquired whether the five foot side yard setback could be reduced. It was the consensus of the Planning Commission to require the five feet side yard setback. Smith commented that the Planning Commission appears to be in favor of the five feet rather than the three feet side yard setback. Beisch irulicated she was fine with the five feet Weinberger commented the adjoining property owner was attempting to utilize the existing footprint and had some other setback issues in the back yard. Stoddard moved. Smith seconded, to recommend approval of Application #2583, 3438 Uvinoston Avenue, granting of a side yard setback to permit construction of a one<stail detached garage to be located five feet from the property line based on Applicant's statement of hardship, and subject to the size of the rear deck being reduced to the size indicated on the site plan.

Page 18 --------- ORONO PLANNING COMMISSION Monday* May 15,2000 (#10) #2584 ANDREW AND TRACY RASCHER, 4705 NORTH SHORE DRIVE - CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT AND VARIANCES, 9:05 p.m. - 9:20 p.m. Andrew and Tracy Rascher, Applicants, were present. Bottenberg stated the Applicants are requesting a conditional use peimit to replace an existing retaining wall and install two additional retaining walls within the 0-75 foot setback. Since retaining walls are considered hardcover, a variance is needed for hardcover in the 0-75 foot setback area. Bottenberg indicated the proposal would be inconsistent with the City's Comprehensive Plan, witt. the City Engineer recommending that no new retaining walls be constructed on the site between the home and the lake. It is the City Engineer's opinion that the retaining walls can be repaired and restored with minimal disturbance to the existing slope. City Staff is recommending approval of the variances and conditional use permit for repair of the existing retaining walls in the 0-75 foot setback area, but denial of the proposed new retaining walls based on the goals and policies cited in the City of Orono's Community Management Plan. Jeremy Bakken, Builder, stated due to the slope of the back yard all the way down to the lake and the old deteriorating corKlition of the existing wails, in his opinion it would be more cost effective to build new walls rather than repair the existing walls. Bakken stated the amount of grading involved in the repair is equal to that which would occur with construction of the new walls. Bakken stated the existing walls are not controlling the drainage and are unsafe. Rascher commented they would like to replace the existing walls due to the fact they are very unstable and do not do the job they were initially constructed to do. Rascher stated they would like to build some retaining walls which are more stable. Smith inquired whether they have had a chance to look at the letter from the City Engineer. Bakken stated they are not proposing to change the existing grade until they get closer to the lake. Bakken stated he would not recommend limestone walls since they need to be replaced periodically and tend to be unstable over time. Mrs. Rascher stated they are attempting to reduce the amount of erosion into the lake, noting that currently nothing is being filtered at this point. Rascher commented the current condition of the steps are unsafe due to the nails which are exposed in the timbers and the unstableness of the flagstone walls. Rascher stated they would like to have a safe access to the lake and remove the safety hazard that currently exists due to the fact they have a young child who will be in this area. Smith stated she can appreciate the safety concerns and the fact that flagstone steps tend to become tippy over time. Smith stated the City of Orono does want people to have safe access to tho lake, but that there are some limits that must be imposed on what people can construct. Smith stated since she is not an engineer, she cannot comment on the structural issues, but that the Planning Commission tends to take into account the recommendations of the City Engineer when deciding what is acceptable. Rascher stated they are proposing to decrease the steepness of the slope. Smith stated there are other lots in Orono with steep slopes, and that the Planning Commission must look at the recommendations of the City Engineer. Smith commented she has visited the site and is not totally convirKed new retaining walls are needed. Smith stated the City likes to encourage residents to keep the area as natural as possible and to limit construction down by the Page 19 J ORONO PLANNING COMMISSION Monday, May 15,2000 (#2584 Andrew Rascher, Continued) lake. Smith commented the Planning Commission must look at what it will take to maintain what is existing and how to provide safe access down to the lake with a minimal amount of construction. Smith stated it is the policy of the City to stay away from a lot of terraced walls and to leave the area as natural as possible. Lindquist stated he is not capable of determining whether vrhat currently exists is right or whether the retaining walls should be replaced. Lindquist stated he does have a problem with retaining walls being located in the 0-75 foot setback as a general mie, and suggested the Applicants speak with the City Engineer to see if something can be worked out v/hich will be acceptable to all parties. Lindquist stated he would be hard pressed to go against the recommendations of the City Engineer. Lindquist suggested the matter be tabled to allow the Applicants time to discuss this matter further with the City Engineer. Smith commented that the engineering issues should perhaps tie explored further, and agreed that the Applicants should perhaps speak with the City Engineer to discuss hi3 recommendations. Weinberger stated the City Engineer will speak with the Applicant if so desired. Weinberger suggested the Applicants contact Wendy to arrange a meetir^ with the City Engineer. Mrs. Rascher inquired what would happen if the application is tabled. Smith stated the Applicants would probably reappear before the Planning Commission at their June meeting if they are able to resolve the issues. Smith stated the Applicants could request additional time if so needed by submitting a letter asking for an extension of the time limit. Bottenberg indicated the 60 day time limit expires on June 19th, which is the date of the next Planning Commission meeting. Mrs. Rascher requested the application be tabled at this time. There were no public comments regarding this application. Smith moved, Lindquist seconded, to table Application #2584, Andrew and Tracy Rascher, 4705 North Shore Drive, to allow the Applicant time to submit revised plans. VOTE: Ayes 5, Nays 0.
