He indicated Chair Pattrin was unavailable to attend the meeting. Daniels said monthly updates are sent to the Mayor for his review. Daniels informed the Council that the Commission has gone through filings with the FCC relating to Triax submitting for small provider status.

Daniels asked the Council to move forward regarding an ordinance r^ulating the use of p^lic rights-of-way in compliance with the recent legislative directive ruling in favor of cities. He said Moorse has received the draft information. Jabbour asked Moorse about this information. Moorse said he was reviewing it and has received additional information from the League of Cities for adoption of a City ordinance. Daniels indicated there is some difference in the language that should be paid attention to between the draft from the Comnussion and from the League of Cities and asked the City to make a comparison. Daniels said the opening of the north studio has been successful. The Long Lake Chamber of Commerce is using it, and the studio is receiving good recognition. Training sessions have also been popular. Daniels noted the 1998 Commission budget has been received by the Council. He s^d they are working on an early franchise renewal with Triax. It is scheduled to expire in mid 1999 but would like to r^uild it sooner than that. r MINITTES OF THE REGULAR ORONO CITY COUNCIL MEETING HELD ON AUGUST 25,1997 (#1 - Lake Minnetonka Communications Commission - Continued) KellQr asked how many new subscribers there were for 1997 over 1996 and what is the growth rate for hook ups.

I t MINUTES OF THE REGULAR ORONO CITY COUNCIL MEETING HELD ON AUGUST 25,1997 PARK COMMISSION COMMENTS Commissioner McDermott informed the Council that work is proceeding on installation of new playground equipment at Antoine Park. The buildings on the property have been demolished and site work is currently taking place. McDermott said each Commissioner has been visiting assigned parks checking on maintenance and areas requiring attention. G^pa has been asked by the Commission to determine the cost of adding a sprinkler system at Old Ciystal Bay Park to assbt in the upkeep. McDermott asked the Council to consider approving a name change for the Commission to the Park and Open Space Commission. The Park Commissioners believe this name is more in keeping with the comprehensive nature of the board. Commissioner Welles said the Commission was unaware of the administrative process required to change the name. Jabbour informed him h would take some time and consideration. Jabbour said he has seen more work being done at the parks this year to the credit of Gappa and the Commission. He informed McDermott that he would hke to see Old Crystal Bay Park seeded soon. Goetten inquired when the work at Antoine work would be complete. McDermott said they had planned for a dedication some time this fall. Gappa said the work should be completed in about three weeks. PLANNING COMMISSION COMMENTS Commissioner Smith had no new comments to make. She reminded the Council of the upcoming work session scheduled for the Planning Commission to discuss home occupation and tree preservation. PUBLIC COMMENTS Gary Hart, 3580 North Shore Drive, said he called the City ofiBces two months ago to inquire whether he would need a permit to add a temporary dock section. He said he was told it was not necessary. He proceeded to build a 12'xl2' dock on the lakeshore, and the building inspector stopped and informed him it was illegal to build a dock in this area. Jabbour informed Hart that a dock on the shore is considered a deck. He informed him of the Shoreland Ordinance amending the City code in 1975 where no structural coverage or hardcover is allowed in the 0-75’ setback finrn the lake, and exceptions are rarely made to that ordinance. He said docks are regulated by the LMCD. Hart said he has encounteret' many examples of rimilar structures on lakeshore properties that have been constructed ance 1975. MINUTES OF THE REGULAR ORONO CITY COUNCIL MEETING HELD ON AUGUST 25» 1997 (Public Comments - Continued) Jabbour told Hart that a survey would be required and hardcover calculations made for his property for the changes as proposed. He said the Council would be happy to rc'/iew his application for variance. Goetten apologized to Hart for his having recdved incorrect information from City Staff. ZONING ADMINISTRATOR'S REPORT (#4) #223® CHIC DWIGHT AND FRED GUTTORMSON, 1220 TONKAWA ROAD • VARIANCES The applicants were present. Gafifron reported that the application is in two parts; one b^ng an after-the-fact lakeshore setback variance and 0-75' hardcover variance for an enclosed room below the existing deck. The second part includes a 75-250’ hardcover variance for a 32'x30' garage. Ga£fron explained the location of the property. The deck enclosure was approved two years ago subject to removal of the 8* gravel driveway to the lake and removal of the lakeshore deck. These removals would allow the applicant to enclose below the deck and repair the deck as well as grading for a w^out doorway. The resolution was not rigned and the work was done without the requured permits and removals. The work in progress was stopped by the building in^tector. This after-the-fact renewal application also now includes a new garage, which would the setbacks, and hardcover removal in both the 0-75' and 75-250' setback areas and removal of two sheds. The Planning Commission reviewed the q>plicarion and unanimously recommended approval of the deck enclosure with hardcover removals as noted. The approval is subject to brining the enclosure into conformance and removal of sheds. 8' driveway and the lakeshore deck. The Planning Commission detemuned that the removals suggested by the applicant were insufficient to off-set the increase of structural hardcover for the new garage. They requested the loop driveway located in the 0-75' setback be removed. The applicant did not agree to this removal, and the Planning Commission unanimously recommended denial of this portion of the application request. Guttormson said he installed pop-in, pop-out, type windows without any frost footings under the deck. He also did not do the dig^g as he had requested or enlarge the deck. He feh he then was not required to make the removals. Jabbour verified that Guttormson screened in what was existing below the deck. Guttormson said Bruce Vang inform^ him the work must be done to code. It was suggested to him at that lime that he split his ^[iplication requests into separate parts. ! ! MINUTES OF THE REGULAR ORONO CITY COUNCIL MEETING HELD ON AUGUST 25,1997 (#4 - #2238 Chic Dwight and Fred Guttonnson - Continued) Jabbour told Guttomison that he bdieves it is ^>propriate to have a garage in this State but the applicant must work with the City. Gaf&on noted that the applicant docs have an existing garage as wdL Goetten noted that the lot was beautiful. Guttonnson said he was at a standstill regarding the improvemems. He said his lakeside deck is unique to the property. He indicated he has removed grating, shed, and dumpsters full of debris and would not have done so if he had known these kerns could have been used as bargtuning tools. KellQr asked Guttormson if he had added new gravel to the driveway to the lake. Guttonnson said he has had k graded and added gravel, which was dragged down to the lake. Guttormson said he would be able to move the proposed garage forward if it would help. Goetten noted that the Planning Commisaon wanted to sec the turnaround eliminated, and the applicam wants to keep it. Chic Dwight said it is difiBcuh to move a car to the .correct angle to leave the driveway. Guttomison said it is difficult to make a left turn from the property and noted the road is posted for no parking. Guttormson said he needs the additional storage space. Dwight reiterated the clean up measures that they have taken on the property. Peterson received confirmation from Gaffiron that the gravel driveway to the lake was to be removed as part of the screeiung in of the ar ea below the deck. Guttonnson responded that he only screened in the deck that is existing and did not make it a 3* season porch. Peterson asked Guttormson why he did not remove the gravel as he had agreed to do. Guttormson said he didn't because he did not complete the improvements as proposed. Jabbour said the applicant had been unhappy with the Council's decision at that time and bad ori^ally plaiuied on adding frost footings. Jabbour noted the appticant and City were back to where they started if no agreement is reached. Gaflfron confirmed that was true. Jabbour asked Guttormson if he would cut down the circular driveway to address the Planning Commission's concerns. Guttormson said he ba« allowed a portion of it to grow in wkh vegetation to narrow k. Goetten was informed that 50 s.f was proposed to be removed and vegetated. Jabbour suggested uting the portion of the driveway out of the 0-75’ setback. Dwight said there are trees located in that area; Guttormson confirmed there are 12 trees located there. Jabbour asked what would be done with the gravd. Guttonnson sdd he would add black dirt and restore the vegetation. MINUTES OF THE REGULAR ORONO CITY COUNCIL MEETING HELD ON AUGUST 25,1997 (#4 - #2238 Chic Dwight and Fred Guttormson - Continued) Jabbour asked if there was any way to reduce the hardcover to oflf-sct the new hardcover. Gafiron suggested the garage be moved forward. Gaffron also said he thought the loop could be cHminated with the ability for maneuvering whhin the large pad out of the 75' setback. He said the options had been explored, but the applicant's recreational vehicle would be difficult to maneuver. In comparison to other similar properties, Gaffion indicated that the loop is overbuilt. Dwight questioned whether other properties are able to park on their streets. Jabbour informed her that it was possible for the Council to allow parking again on the street. Jabbour informed the applicants that the Council rardy allows nardcover in the 0-75* setback and views the application timilar to the Planning Commission. He noted that if the application was denied, the ^plicants could not submit a further application for sx months. Peterson said she would support the screening of the deck but saw a problem with the extensive hardcover and the turnaround. She said she agrees with the Planning Commission recommendations on the trade-offs, e^>ecially in light of the fact that there is already a 2-car garage on the property. Guttormson asked, if he eliminated the screened porch and requested the garage, whether he would be allowed to keep the road to the lake and lakeside deck. Keller informed him that the road to the lake must be eliimnated. He told Guttormson that he was upset that the applicant was back before the Council after having previously approved improvements and felt taken advantage of He indicated the applicant did not uphold the terms of the resolution and proceeded to perform the work. Kelley said the ^plicant was aware of the riilcs that had been established through the process. Guttormson said he got the permits for the work that was done. Goetten informed the applicants that she would like to see the Council and applicant come to a mutual agreement but did feel the loop driveway must be eliminated. She said the applicant should comply with the options presented by Staff and supports the garage with removals as noted. Jabbour asked the applicant if he wanted to have a motion on the ^plication or if he preferred the application be tabled. Guttormson adeed that the application be tabled. Jabbour said changes to the application would require review by the Planning Commission. Jabbour moved, Goetten seconded, to table Application #2238 until the applicant is ready to take further action. City Attorney Barrett will draft a dated letter to that effect and send to the applicant. Vote: Ayes 4, Nays 0. t MINUTES OF THE REGULAR ORONO CITY COUNCIL MEETING HELD ON AUGUST 25,1997 (•#5) #2255 RICK RICE, 2700 KELLY AVENUE - VARIANCE - RESOLUTION NO. 3945 Goetten moved, Kell^^ seconded, to approve Resolution No. 3945. Vote: Ayes 4, Nays (#6) #2264 JANET KIERNAN, 1491 SHORELINE DRIVE - VARIANCES - RESOLUTION NO. 3946 The applicant was present, along with Alan Christy. Gafifron reported that an application for additions to the existing residence was reviewed and approv^ one year ago, bm plans have since been revised. The Planning Commission recently reviewed the application as well. The property located by Bracketts Point was planned for remodeliog with additions to the garage. Existing structure and hardcover were reviewed. At the time of appl3nng for the building permit, applicant proposed to remove the entire structure and b^n anew with new construction. The plan included encroachment of the side and 75' setback. The Planning Commission had recommended that this new construction should include moving the house back from the 75' setback. The currem revised plan will make use of some portion of the existing structure. The applicant will make use of 40% of the existing structure. After the additions, the new ^ructure will be 80% new and 20% existiiig. The plan was reviewed with the building inspectors. Ga^on noted that the code does not specify a percentage of existing building that must remain to be con^dered as a remodeling. TTw plans include a side setback encroachment. The 75' encroachment will remain as exists. The average lakeshore setback enrrodchment will change as the nature of the bulk and mass of the structure will increase in that setback. Gafiron indicated that the Planning Commissioners felt this change would not impact the neighboring properties due to its relation to and topography of the land. Staff recommended approv^ of the application subject to the conditions previously r^mmended by the Planning Commission. These conditions include no change to the side setback, a change in the drweway, addition of a garage stall, meeting the 15' street setback, and 27.6% hardcover in the 75-250' setback ftM” a 0.1% increase. The applicant printed a computer scanned photograph of the area depicting what the improvements will look like. Tree coverage was removed to allow the residence to be viewed. However, the actual tree coverage will remain. Alan Christy said no additional encroachment will occur into the setback of the footprint and only in volume for the second story. Jabbour was informed that height was not an issue. 1 MINUTES OF THE REGULAR ORONO CITY COUNCIL MEETING HELD ON AUGUST 25,1997 (#6 - #2264 Janet Kieman - Continued) Kiernan ^owed pictures of the property. Christy said the resolution as proposed is acceptable to Kieman. He noted if the mumcipal sewer easement is included in the resolution, the easement should be restricted to a 20 ’ width. City Engineer, Tom Kellogg, said the sewer easement referred to is one bdng n^otiated for the extreme northeast comer of the property to allow a directionally bored 8" pipe to be installed to provide service to the property east of Kieman. A back hoe would be used for the sewer installation otherwise, resulting in a 20-25' deep hole with a steep bank. The easement would decrease that digging to 10 ’. Christy said he has not seen the legal description for the easement and would approve it in die extreme northeast comer but would like it clarified. Jabbour srud the sewer easement should be indq)endent firom the application. Barrett agreed with Jabbour. Kelley said he was concerned with the 80%/20%, new/old, stmcture percentage. Gaflfron clarified that the 40% of the current structure would remaiiL Kelley said he opines that the constmction would result in a new structure. He would support the firont and ride yard setback variances. He would not support encroachment of the 75’ setback. Goetten noted that the code does not ^lecify a policy regarding how much of an old structure is required to remain in order to be considered as a remodel instead of new construction. Peterson remarked, that without this policy, she supported the application. Jabbour acknowledged that the City should make a policy determination on this issue. Goetten indicated that if foundation was removed, the structure should be bdiind the 0- 75’ setback; but without a pdicy regarding the foundation in place, she would support the Planning Commission recommendation. Jabbour moved, Peterson seconded, to approve Resolution No. 3946 per the Planning Commission recommendation, but excluding the condition regarding a sewer easement. Gaflfron indicated that a 10' comer of the house would remain in the 0-75 ’ seti>ack. JaUmur verified that no additional structure would occur in the 0-75 ’ setback. Gaflfrmi said the construction v^’ould be remodeling only and no expanrion of the footprint in the 0-75 ’ zone and in the south side setback area. Most of the foundation is being used in that area.

Gaffion informed him diat the access easement could be abandoned and a drivews^ biult instead. Kelley asked if this would be allowed. Gafifron said yes, but it would be dependent on the hardcover. Kelley questioned whether this Council would make that approval. Gafhron indi :ated the driveway relocation could be accomi^ished without a variance but not if the northern house is expanded. Kdlqr questioned whether the property owner would use the driveway as a hardslup. He said he was attempting to visualize ^lat might occur in the property in the future. Hurr rdterated that the lots are two separate parcels. She also indicated that the applicant is granting a drainage easement, for facilities which were built at their expense. Ihe application will result in a 15' easemen, and tie together some loose ends. (Flint arrived at thb time, 8:IS p.m.) Goetten said the subdivition is an improvement for the property. Jabbour asked that the record note to future ownership that this approval might self- impose a future hardship if it does not have utilization of the driveway.

The applicant was represented by Tom Terry. MINUTES OF THE REGULAR ORONO CITY COUNCIL MEETING HELD ON AUGUST 25,1997 (#11- #2282 Tom Terry for Valerie Peterson - Continued) Gafi&*on reported that the public hearii^ was to review an application requiring lot area and lot wi^h variances for construction of a new residence to replace one that was destroyed by fire. The 26,292 s.f property is in the LR-IB Zoning District, where 43,560 s.f is required. Lot width of 85' is substandard to the 140' required. The survey shows the garage and driveway and proposed house. The residence will meet the 10' side setback on the north and be at 12' to the south. Setbacks are met. Hardcover in the 75- 250' setback needs to be confirmed at 30%. Gaffion believes the 0.04% overage is resolvable. Staff recommended approval. Tom Terry S2ud he thought the hardcover requirement was met as area was removed fifom the driveway. Jabbour a.sked that this occur. Terry indicated that the old house not meet the requirement. There were no public comments, and Jabbour closed the public hearing. Kelley moved, Goetten seconded, to approve Resolution No. 3951. Vote: Ayes 5, Nays 0. Terry asked the Council to waive the variance fee. Jabbour said this would require review and verification of the occurrences. He asked Moorse whether the facts would justify the waiver. Moorse said there was a delay in determining the need for a variance, but, ^e feet remains that variances are required. Jabbour opined that the applicant should pay the fee for the variance. Terry said the delay cost about two weeks of additional time and cost noting the variance fee of $225. Jabbour indicated that aiqr waiver of the fee would require a thorough investigation and did not support the waiver. Peterson, Goetten, Flint, and Kelley supported the variance fee. No motion was made for a variance wtuver. (#12) VARIANCE FOR DAVID AND JODI RAHN, 1385 REST POINT ROAD David Rahn was present. Gappa reported that the variance was previously approved for remodeling and addition of the subject residence. The building inspector brought concerns forward regarding the work in progress. The existing cabin is located in the 0-75' setback, and the variance was for an addition to square off the residence and add a second story. It called for the residence to be slab-on-grade. Floor plans were shown as well as pictures as the property was viewed at the time of inspection. It was felt that the amount of removals was more extensive than projected, the building was jacked up, and more courses of block were being added to the foundation. r MINUTESOFTHEREGVlARORONOCrrYCOUNCIL MEETING HELD ON AUGUST 25,1997 (#12 - Variance for David and Jodi Rahn - Continued) Gaooa indicated that the two additional courses of block were added after the st^ work ^^wTSued. He said the stop work order was issued b,^ the ^nstrucuon was not occurring according to what was permitted under the building permit. Jabbour inquired about a problem that arose with the ftreplace E^d said a tree feU on the fireplace during the July 14 storm and showed the resuhtng pictures. Rahn said he attended the meeting to hear the discuMion regarding the i*®"?. the stop work order. He indicated that the concrete S^otk order posted. Jabbour informed to that this issue was wth the Bto^ Department and to the CouncU. The CouncU can only discuss the house, its location, and its Rahn esplained that the two courses of block was only added wbc^ H w^to the porch as the floor joists were only inches away fi-om the ground. He » recommendation to elevate it two courses to obtain a separation frto the grade. He aai this recommendation came fiom his engineer. ^ poim thM, in order for the existing foundation to be in conformance, core fifl would have to be added. Jabbour said he saw the issues as being the existing residence is *ocat^ m the 0-75 setback and the other land on the property being in the flood . considerations were the location and what exists. Jabbour indicated ttot bi^on the major rehabilitation taking place, it would be difficult to save a^ portion of the residence. He considered the residence as being new construction. Bruce Vang said Staff did not feel Rahn was intending to deceive the City but there was nothing worth saving on the residence. Jdibour said Rahn should not attempt to save a few pieces rfwood for ^ to preserve what the City sees as use of existing structure. Jabbour informed Rahn that the Building Inspector feels there is no house left. Rahn said he disagreed but would work with the Bmlding Dep^ent. He thought what remained of the residence wm what was to remarn but would do all that was necessary to allow the project to continue. (Joetten noted that she did not vote for the project iratially and thMght occur. Goetten said the occurrences result in a inajor change to the appbeahon and should be reviewed again by the Planning Commission. ^ i ‘ I MINITTES OF THE REGULAR ORONO CITY COUNCIL MEETING HELD ON AUGUST 25,1997 (#12 - Variance for David and Jodi Rahn - Continued) Jabbour asked Counsel if the resolution allows the applicant to continue as he is doing and remain in compliance. Bairett said the Council needs to determine whether the premise of the resolution, which is allowing additional structure to the existing reridence, is occurring. He noted that if it is determined to be new construction, a lot area variance would also be required in addition to the variances ^proved. Kdley noted the difiScuh issues at hand and differing viewpoints. Jabbour said the discussion is not to review the application but to determine whether the approved application is being diverted from. Kdley said he bdieves it has changed. Peterson said she does not bdieve that was Rahn's intentimi. Rahn noted that to a certain extent, the City required the ei^eering that occurred. He sees the only issue as being the two courses of block added. KeUey stated that this brings up the issue that en^neering should occur prior to approval of an ai^lication. If the facts had been known prior to the approval, he questioned whether the decision would have been differem. Kelley said these facts should have been known. Vaiig said he would like to correct the ord^ of events. According to the resolution, the Council directed an inspection of the foundation. Staff required the engineer to review the foundation and found h to be structurally sound but not meeting the 42** dq>th. A plan was developed to provide additional underpinning. Ketl^ said that issue should have been discussed before the Planning Commission and Council review and may have changed the judgments made. Jabbour said he feels the process should be done in the building permit process as it creates an added burden on the property owner. He noted surveying is e?q>ensive and with the engineering, the applicant could pay a large sum and then receive a denial. He ii^s conditions should be placed on the approval in terms of what checkpoints need to be met. Kelley said the issue is what occurs when these problems are found during the project that Staff says is different from that approved by Council resulting in the Coun^ becoming caught inbetweetL MINUTES OF THE REGULAR ORONO CITY COUNCIL MEETING HELD ON AUGUST 25,1997 (#12 - Variance for David and Jodi Rahn - Continued) Jabbour suggested no building permit be granted until the conditions to be met are known efiminating creating the problem. He said the question remaining b not whether the (nroject should be approved but whether what was sq>proved is what is there. Kelley responded that in that scenario, what was approved is being met. He indicated that Rahn is attempting to gain the residence within the footprint and on blocks. He feels the applicant is trying to meet what the Council wanted. Jabbour re^nded that removing three quarters of a house is not the same. Jabbour said he is not saying the owner should not get what the building code asks for, but the Council has to make a determination of its original intent and whether the applicant diverted from that intention. Jabbour asked Rahn when the storm occurred that resulted in damage to the fireplace. Rahn said it occurred about the time he had received application rqrproval. Rahn said when the floor joists were opened, he determined the floor had to be elevated to be in compliance with code. Without doing this step, he would not have been in compliance. Rahn said any further delays would create a hardship for him, and he b willing to do whatever is necessary to be allowed to continue. He indicated that be disagrees that only a small piece of floor remains. Jabbour indicated that Staff will continue to monitor the construction. Jabbour smd the Council will not get involved even if it would like to. He indicated that it is Staffs duty to morutor the atuation to protect the Council viewpoint. He noted that the CouncU would most likely not change the iq)proval due to the need to preserve the flood plain. Jabbour moved, Peterson seconded, to approve the continuation of the construction wtb further removals if required to assure proper completion of the residence at that locatioiL Jabbour said he wants Rahn to be able to remove all of the building if necessary. Flint clarified that this would meet option #2 given to the Council. Jabbour concurred. Option #2 states: "Allow work to proceed under Resolution #3926 with further removab as deemed necessary by the biulding official to assure the best possible end product." Kelley asked to review the motion noting that the property is sewered, the biulding location b the best spot on the lot for a residence, and questioned whether this would have recoved a variance. He questioned whether the applicant would have recoved a variance if ah of the buildii^ was required to be tom down. With the house being found unsatisfactory, he questioned whether the work would be allowed to continue even if the entire residence was removed. MINUTES OF THE REGULAR ORONO CITY COUNCIL MEETING HELD ON AUGUST 25,1997 (#12 * Variance for David and Jodi Rahn - Continued) Flint said he would support the nwtion as the facts laid out show the applicant acted in good &(th. He indicated there was a mutual misunderstanding of the facts and an act of God occurred. If this had not h^penecL he would recommend the Planning Commisrion again review it. Vote: Ayes 4, Nays 1, Goetten. Goetten said she felt the decision was outrageous. If the residence has to be demolished, Goetten said the Council has always required the residence to be moved back behind the 75* setback fine. She feels this decision erases that stance and allows people not to be held to that requirement. Jabbour asked that the record show that the majority of the renuuning portion of the property is in the flood plaiiL (The meeting was recessed for five minutes.)

CITY ADMINISTRATOR'S REPORT (#16) CASCO COVE ROAD MAINTENANCE UPDATE Moorse reported that tins item was being discussed as a result of public comments made at the July 28 Council Meeting regarding the poor condition of Casco Cove Road. Mike Barrett had requested at that meeting that the City take responsibility for ownership and maintenance of the road. Staff reviewed the matter and identified the issues as related in the memo by Gappa. According to the Comprehensive Plan pertaining to Urban Transportation, urban streets are to be maintained by the City. Moorse spoke with City Attorney Barrett regarding legal responsibility He indicated that he would generally believe in cases as this that be^n as a private road and become acquired by the City, the City would not be requ^ to take over maintenance as the road has always been maintained privat^. Shore HiUs Drive and Dakota Avenue are two other urban roads that are not maintained by the CHy. Reridents along Dakota Avenue have requested the CHy to take over maintenance.

Casco Cove, in its poor condition, may require not only maintenance but significant upgrade and correction to some portions and overlay elsewhere. Moorse said the cost would be ngnificant. He noted there is no program in place for major reconstniction of existing streets. The road would be added to the list of roads requiring work. I v. indicated there are other roads in similar condition on the list. Flint said he is of the opinion that the City shou^ not take over roads that are not built to City standards. He noted Dakota Avenue will be to standards but paid for by assessments. Jabbour said the road work was City subsidized. Flint suggested Casco Cove be brought to City standard and then taken over by way of assessment. Jabbour indicated the Comprehen^ve Plan is binding in its action or an amendment wiB be required noting the distinctions made regarding rural and urban roads. He cited the incident of Old Beach Road. Jabbour agreed the City should not take on a liability, but should have brought the road to City standard in 1987 when it was taken over. He noted it could not be brought to airrent standard in the wooded area. Cook concurred. Flint stud he was in agreement with the explanation made by Moorse on why the road was taken over in order to protect access for residences. He indicated the road is still that of those readents and should not be taken over by the City for maintenance without bdng brought to standard. He noted the ownership was done to protect the interest of the residents. Jabbour sdd he agreed with Flint but is of the opinion that the 10 years of subsequent use should be considered and value depreciated. Peterson siud she believes 50% of the life span for the road has been used. Goetten a.sked if the next .step should follow that train of thought. Peterson inquired what the prior standard was for that road. Moorse indicated that not all roads are built to the standard width but should have a good base and 3 ” of bituminous. Kelley noted that the road would then not be to City standards. Flint concurred that the standard was different than what currently exists. Gafifron indicated that the standards adopted with the subdivision code only go back to 1980 Jabbour asked, if the road was taken over in 1987 and built to City standards, what would have been the cost and what depreciation would have occurred. Peterson, while agreeing with this thought, noted the standards would have been different. Moorse indicated the road would have been about 8" of Class 5 and 3" of asphalt but not to the current width requirements. MINUTES OF THE REGULAR ORONO CITY COUNCIL MEETING HELD ON AUGUST 25,1997 (#16 - Casco Cove Road Maintenance - Continued) Kelley asked what the condition is of the road. He was informed that the low area would require drainage improvements and excavation. The remaining portion would need an overlay. The sewer was installed in 1966 and road rebuilt at that time. The road is now (XMning close to the end of its life expectancy. Kelley clarified that the road was assessed in 1966 as part of the sewer project. KeUey opined that the City should do what marginally can be done and add the road to the list of roads for repairs. He suggested Staff dassily the needs and fix any major potholes. Goetten asked where the decision is made to fix a road. Jabbour questioned whether the City should take the road only if brought up to standard, or as is. He believes it should be taken somewhere inbetween due to its use since tinre of City acquisition. Gappa reported that a contractor quoted an estimated $20,000 to repair the road. Jabbour questioned whether the residents would be interested in an assessment of one- half that amount or whether they would prefer a temporary patch and the road be added to the road repair list. The $20,000 would not be a total recop'. ’ iiiction. It would include r^ladng the base in the low area and overlaying the entire street. The overlay would last about 10 years. Gappa told Jabbour that the road could be blade patched at a cost of about $500. The road would then be plowed by the City and added to the major repair list. Gappa said the road could be fixed now as suggested by Jabbour earlier wiA a portion paid by the City and assessed back to the residents. Jabbour reiterated there would be a 50% depreciation by this time fiom when it was acquired. He noted there were only 8 homes on the road. Kelley suggested the Council make a detemunation whether the road should be a City • road and allow time for the homeowners to talk about what they would like to see occur, whether to patch or totally repair as noted above Jabbour noted an assessment hearing would be required if the road repair was done and assessed. He reiterated the distinction in the Comprehensive Plan regarding urban roads and maintenance by the City. Goetten said the distinction should then be made on all three roads. Jabbour indicated that the other two roads are not in need of repair. Goetten questioned whether the determination taking over the road m 1987 was of a different criteria.

(#17) CITY POUCY REGARDING BURNING PERMITS Moorse reported that a discussion ensued at the last Council meeting regarding on brush burning and burning permits and how it relates to State regiments and othff cities’ regulations. Moorse said he found that historically the MPCA had authonty over burning permits and was very strict in Hs regulations. The City followed the guidelines set by the MPCA regarding the burning of brush, remaining strict m its r^ations regarding burning. The DNR then took over authority. Their viewpoint is more liberal. Other cities have foUowed in loosening their regulations but Orono has not done so. Jabbour inquired whether the fire department is aware of the c^cs ttot were He said he has discussed the topic with the Long Lake Fire Chief, who has mdicated tha the City does not need to be as strict in their regulations Jabbour noted that this contradicts the recommendations made by Staff. He feels there is a m^or di^c^ between what should occur m urban vs. rural areas. Jabbour said brush burning shouia only occur in rural areas if the regulations once again allow this to occur. Goetten said she would like to see burning approved noting the need for the acUvity m emergency situations. Goetten would Uke to see residents have the opportunity to bum. She noted there were 97 requests for burning permits this year. s MINUTES OF THE REGULAR ORONO CITY COUNCIL MEETING HELD ON AUGUST 25,1997 (#17 - City Policy Regarding Burning Permits - Continued) Kelley said he feds allowing burning would be very dangerous and should be at least 50* from any building. Jabbour indicated there are difierences in the sizes of properties. Goetten indicated that an inspector used to come to the properties and in^>ect the areas. Kelley questioned whether inspections diould still occur with a burning permit. Goetten said inspections should occur. Kdl^ asked if the building inspector has standards Moorse said they are laid out in the application form. Kelley said he feels the conditions on the application form are not strict enough. He noted that Orono has become refmested and is concerned with trees being burned down and brush fires occurring. It was noted that an 8*x4' area is presently permitted for bumii^. He noted it is not stipulated how big a circumference around the pile should be free of debris. He questioned how the building jiqiector is to make that determination. Peterson also questioned who would police the fires. Kelley indicated there will be many more fires if permits are more easily obtained He does not want to sec Staff involved in making the many determinations and would like to see more definite standards and conditions, such as wind velocity. Kelley said he is concerned with the fast spreading of fires. Goetten asked Kelley what conditions he would like to see in effect. Kelley said he is not an expert. He also indicated he is not totally against allowing burning but wants to be sure that there are adequate standards and conditions. Kelley said he would like to see the policy format redone. Jabbour saw the problem with not allowing burning and people doing it an)rways. He would like to encourage residents to ask for permission and enable the City to provide expertise on the issue to the residents. It noted that a fire could bum for several days if confined to an 8' circle. A time limit was suggested. The fire code should determine the fire Mparation without requii^ a fire wall with a SC setback for so numy feet. He feds the dze of the fire should be in direct proportion to the distance from the building. Jd)bour asked the Council if they were willing to amend the burning ordinance and allow Staff to study the issue further. Bob Gehrman suggested there were two issues to consider; the potential for loosening the rules regarding open burning; and for those who are unable to bum due to lot the need to provide for some type of disposal site or burning site. MINUTES OF THE REGULAR ORONO CITY COUNCIL MEETING HELD ON AUGUST 25,1997 (#17 - City Policy Regarding Burning Permits - Continued) Jabbour acknowledged the need for an emergency program to deal widi as an exception to the rule. He said the City should probably consider a site that would coincide with the de&n-up days. Peterson said ^ is in favor of a change but is not sure what the change should be She questioned whether it would be appropriate to have a distinction between rural and urban. Jabbour said he would like to see the distinction related to the distance between the property line and adjacent buildings. Kdley said, while he is in favor of reviewing the policy, he is not necessarily in &vor of chan^. He does not want the re^xmsibility left to tte building staff to deal with. Kdley said he would like to see a fire marshal hired as previously discussed, who would be b^er able to handle such situations. He would like to see the work contracted out and paid by an hourly rate for buildings, marinas, and burmng. Jabbour noted that Staffs recommendation is to maintain the current policy. He indicated it would be necessary to let Staff know why Council feels otherwise to allow them to come back with another recommendation. Moorse indicated to Goetten that people are not charged for burning. Peterson voiced concern with residents going ahead and burning while others make the request and are denied. Goetten said that is why she asked if there would be a charge for burning. She said she would not be against a possible charge. Moorse indicated that this could become a workload issue. Jabbour indicated that he does not see this issue becoming large as he feels there will be limited desire for such burning. Goetten agreed that there probably won't be alot of requests for burning but acknowledged there are emergency situations where burning is needed. Bob Gehrman suggested the inspector could in^iect the wood to ensure it is dry for a quicker bum and cleaner bum. Goetten suggested monitoring how many more permits are requested. Flint said he would like to further investigate the matter noting its complexity. He indicated the time of year is very critical. He would like to see if there arc rules that would make sense. Goetten agreed vnth Flint. Bob Gehrman asked the Council to review the potential of providing a refuse site for those than are unable to bum or prefer not to bum. Jabbour suggested this occur during clean up days and adding additional clean up days to the calendar. r minutes of the regular orono city council MEETING HELD ON AUGUST 25,1997 (#17 - City Policy Regarding Burning Permits - Continued) Go«tten indicated that residerts will tend to stock pile their brush if th^ ha ^ * Goetten said she feels the drop off site has been reaOTnAlecJs;.

(#18) APPEAL OF AN ADMINISTRATIVE DECISION FOR A DRAINFIELD LOCATION Steve Weckman, Septic Inspector, reported that the review is an appeal ofm administrative decision regarding a drainfield location for the r^lacement of a sephc system. Theresa and Michael Eastman have applied for a buildmg permit m order to build a garage and small addition to thw residence. During the review of the septic, the septic system was found to be TOn^orfonnmg due to the lack of a 3 foot separation from the seasonal ground water level. WeekmM ^ Staffs decision was the best solution for the septic, and the septic system woih should be done in cor^unction with die improvements. Weckman said the Eastman's are asking for the septic system to be placeo m irora oi w residence instead of the rear. The front site is classified as experimental due to the soils. The wetlands were found to have been filled with 3-1/2 ’ of clay fill Underneath ttot ctey is peat which, along with fill, cannot be used for septic site material as it is unpredictable how h win work. Due to its compacting, it is difficult to determine the long range acceptance of vmte. Weckman also noted that the son is mottled within 6" of the surface indicating saturation. He indicated that it takes one foot of unsaturated sou to treat sewage. Weckman said the preliminary work performed with a designer shows the area in back of the residence having good soU. It is close to the residence and the weU but the soils should be able to accept the sewage. Weckman expects the remaining standards wffl be met. Mrs. Eastman indicated there are substantial differences in cost bctvi^ the septic sit« for the back and front of the property. She presented the Council with a handout with this information. She iiuficated that the location as requested by Staff would be financially difficult. Flint remarked that the Eastman's should not be forced to put in a new sqptic system if thdr system is only non-conforming but not failing. Weckman responded that the CouncU reviewed where sewering might better serve residents and this resulted in the 10 hot spots. He indicated that the area where the Eastman's reside is not included on this list. MINUTES OF THE REGULAR ORONO CITY COUNCIL MEETING HELD ON AUGUST 25,1W7 Kelley asked why the system is non-conforming. Weckman informed him that it is due to the lack of a 3' separation. The residence is within lOOO’ of the lake, and so it has a two- year time penod to replace the system. Properties outside of the 1000' shoreland district have a 10-year penod in which to replace non-conforming systems. Mrs. Eastman noted their property is near the Saga Hill area being considered for sewer Weckman responded that the property is at least onc-half mile away depending on where sewer would come la Goetten acknowledged that the Eastman property was not within the hot spot areas. Weckman noted that the parcels are also larger in this area. The Eastmanproperty is 1.22 acres. ^bbour asked Weckman if the building permit triggered the need for a new system. Weekmm noted that if the system was discharging to the surface, the system would be ri^ired to be replaced immediately. The Shoreland Ordinance b a separate entity that tnggw the upgrade automatically if not maintained. Jabbour noted that the budding permit is what triggered the resulting action. Mrs. Eastman asked where the septic system would be located if the prior owner had comph^ with the need for a new ^stem. Weckman said they would probably have had to use the experimental area and the system would likely have failed. Weckman said he would not recommend that area for the septic when he cannot say it will work. He i^icated the result may be the Eastmans might have to have their system pumped out ab^ twice monthly, which is not prudent. Weckman said he looks for the best site first and an ciyenm^al ate is the last option. Weckman said he believes the septic system as sugg^ed would work. Mrs. Eastman responded that their contractor feh their experimental site would work with additional sand added. J^ur clarified wth Weckman that the need for the new system was due to the lack of a 3 separation and not because of a failing system. ^bbour noted that the Stale has considered changing the 3' separation requirement to 2' He noted that properties outside of the 1000' shoreland area has received a 10 year mormonurn on septic j^^stem replacement in these cases. Jabbour said he has changed hi< opinion r^dmg this issue and beUeves those within the shoreland area should be irflowed the moratorium as well. Weckman responded that the 2' suggestion was a legislative decision and not a scientific one Kelley said the issue is one of treating the residences in the 0-1000' shoreland area the sarne as the lOOCH-' area and give them the same latitude of a 10-year period for informing. Mrs. Eastman informed KeUey that half of her lot is outside of the 1000' shoreland area. Weckman mdicated that the house and septic are within the 1000' shoreland area. 5 f r r f MINUTES OF THE REGULAR ORONO CITY COUNCIL MEETING HELD ON AUGUST 25,1997 (^^18 - Appeal of Administrative Decision for Drainfieid Location - Continued) Kelley asked what the fects were and why Staff believes those withLn the shoreland area should conform. Gaflfron responded that the DNR informed the City to make sure that the systems be upgraded and allow one year to comply. Kelley asked where the DNR now stands on the issue. Gaffi’on said he did not know. Jabbour indicated there are more fmling ^ems in the out-state area. He said all of the residences should be allowed the 10 year grace period. Weckman responded that there is not much debate regarding the 3' separation and is only a financial matter. He indicated it is Council's prerogative to change the code but noted that the 1000' shoreland regulations were to protect the lake. He mdicated the code has always stipulated the 3' separation but allowed those not meeting it to be grandfathered in. Goetten asked how often the septic systems would be checked for sewage emering the lake if the code was changed in the shoreland area as suggested. Weckman said he has reviewed all .systems installed prior to 197.3 and is continuing on the remaining systems in checking for the 3' separation. Goetten asked what would trigger Weckman to take the next step in checking for discharge. Weckman stud he inspects all systems eveiy 2-3 for ^ling ^sterns. Jabbour noted that the Eastmans have a non-conforming ^em, not a failing system. Weckman indicated that it may be a matter of semantics as the State considers a system not meeting the 3' separation as failing while the City calls that non-conforming. A system that is discharging is called a imminent health hazard according to the State and called failing by the City. Jabbour polled the Council and questioned whether the policy requiring a two-year I^od for septic system replacement in the shoreland district could be changed at this time. Gafifron informed him that revising the Shoreland Regulations arc part of the Zoning Ordinance requires Planning Commission review and a public hearing. K^ey said the City should go ahead with the zoning ordinance amendment process. He indicated the City is sewering more and more, and people are being caught up within the policy as the 1000' line gne.s through their properties Goetten acknowledged that the cost of a new sj'stem tvould be tremendous for the Eastmans, though acknowledged that economics should not be a consideration. Gafiiron asked to clarify to the Council that there is no connection between the property in question and sewering Saga Hill area due to the distance and topography. Jabbour suggested the Eastmans wait on installmg a new system. Kelley noted that the same concern will occur elsevriiere. 25 minutes of the regular orono city council MEETING HELD ON AUGUST 25,1997 (#1S - Appeal of Administrative Decision for Drainfield Location - Continued) Goettcn noted that a building permit wodd not be issued unta the dedsion r^arding amending the shoreland ordinance was finalized. Mrs. Eastman noted rt will be expensive to rq)lace the ^em no matter where it is located. Kelley noted that the Eastmans will eventiiaUy have to comply with the requirement for a new system and diould be sure to inform a future buyer of the system’s non-conformity. Staff was directed to begin the process of changing the ordinance. Mike Schulte, said he fives within a couple of miles of the Eastmans. He said tte Co«^ has finlcd to sec that the Eastmans had been notified that their property was subrtandart when they purchased it and it resuhed in their purchasing additional property If they had not purchased the additional property, Schulte said the new system wodd have been placed in the experimental area where they requested it to be located. They also would not have been required to have a variance. Jabbour clarified that the additional land was bought to bring their lot into conform^ to standards, and they would otherwise not have had to go through this Schulte said he feels they should not have been required to do so. Jabbour informed him toe Council must look at the land that is owned. He indicated that the Eastmans acted m the spirit of Orono. Schulte said the trigger to bring this issue to the forefiront should have occu^ carfi^ Jabbour indicated that the title opinion should have presented the issue, but it b not the City's responsibility to report h. Schulte said the shed should have triggered it. Mrs. Eastman confirmed that a shed permit was taken out m 1995, and the survey done at that time indicated an addition was planned. Jablx^ indicated that the prior owners were informed that they were to have conformed with a new system by December, 1995. He suggested the issue could be deferred at this time. Kell^ noted that the Council was attempting to .save the Eastmans the money that would be ^lent on a new system at tWs time if they are willing to go through the process to change the ordinance. Mrs. Eastman reported there were foundation problems that need to be resolved^ soon as possible and were planned for repair during the addition.

He indicated he has spoken with a iwighbor along Bederwood who has concern r^ardii^ the project and has a^ed to gjve public comments. He infi^rmed the neighbor that a public hearing was required for the berm. Goetten questioned that the public hearing was necessary because of both the change in the plans and the berm being over 100 c.y.

FUnt reported attending the Femdale Road public hearing. He indicated there was a lot of support for the trail. It was noted that the trail will be fimded by MSA fimds and the cost will be shared with the Chy of Plymouth. I V MINUTES OF THE REGULAR ORONO CITY COUNCIL MEETING HELD ON AUGUST 25,1997 (Mayor/CouncU Rqx>rt - Continued) % I-" § Flint indicated there was an issue from Plymouth residents regarding the road being three lanes wide. Flint said Orono residents would probably prefer three lanes as the road carries alot of traflBc. He feels it would be a mistake to upgrade the road inadequately. Kelley clarified that the desire is for a middle turn lane. He questioned whether the cost sharing should be negotiated with Plymouth due to the amenities being included. Flint noted to the Orono residents also want the trail to be constructed. He had noted to the residences on the Plymouth side are closer to the road and appreciate the trail beiiig located there. G^a indicated that the cost share requires Council approval. He suggested a possible joint public hearing for comments and for approval by both Councils. Jabbour noted there are many smaller lots in Plymouth than in Orono. Kdley srid the intersection at CoRd 6 is of most importance to him. He noted there is a steep slope at the intersection and asked how much of it will be regraded. Gappa indicated that the entire approach to Ferndale will be regraded He said CoRd 6 is not part of this particular project. Kelley asked if fill would be required to be brou^ in. Gappa said h would for the landing zone. Kdley was informed that the landing zone wouJd be about S0-7S'. Cook said it would depend on the impact on the area. Gappa noted that the road improvement would aflto 100 homes in Orono and 300 homes in Plymouth. Kdley fdt additional traffic would be traveling to the golf course. Flint said the western portion of Wayzata would also use this road. Gappa indicated the next stq> in the process is the fearibility report. Jabbour a.sked Moorse to speak with members of the Plymouth Coundl to ddermine the appropriate time for a joint meeting to be held as soon as possible.

A RESOLUTION GRANTING VARIANCES TO MUNICIPAL ZONING CODE SECTION 10.25, SUBDIVISION 6 (B) FILE NO. 2253 WHEREAS, David Reinhold (hereinafter "the applicant") is the owner of the property located at 3551 Livingston within the City of Orono (hereinafter "the City") and legally described as follows: Lot 6, Block 4, Navarre Heights, Hennepin County, Minnesota (hereinafter "the property"); and WHEREAS, the applicant has applied to the City for variances to Municipal Zoning Code Section 10.25, Subdivision 6 (B) to permit the construction of a new single family residence to replace the existing residence on a lot of 0.15 acre area and 50' width where a 0.5 acre area and 100' width are normally required. Minnesota: NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of Orono, 3. FINDINGS This application was reviewed as Zoning File #2253. The property is located in the LR-IC Single Family Lakeshore Residential Zoning District. The Orono Planning Commission reviewed this application on August 18, 1997 and on a vote of 7 to 0 recommended approval of the proposed variances based upon the following findings: A. The existing lot of 0.15 acre in area and 50' width contains an existing house connected to municipal sewer. Page 1 of 5 4. 5. B. The adjacent properties on either side of applicants property are developed with existing single family residences, hence no additional land is available to make the lot larger. C. Development of this lot would be in character with the neighborhood, as evidenced by the fact that of 73 homes in the neighborhood bounded by Shadywood Road on the east and Blaine Avenue on the west, including Livingston Avenue, Lyric Avenue and Crystal Place, 41 are on single 50' lots, 23 are on double 100’ lots, and 9 are on triple 150' or larger lots. D. Even though this lot is significantly smaller than the zoning district standards, a residence can be built on the property which meets the lot coverage, setback and hardcover standards of the LR-IC district. E. Allowing the rep'.a. .• nent of ihe existing deteriorated structure with a modest residence :t b-,fp the City meet its goal of maintaining affordable housing in the City. The City Council has considered this application including the findings and recommendations of the Planning Commission, reports by City staff, comments by the applicant and the effect of the proposed variance on the health, safety and welfare of the community. The City Council finds that the conditions existing on this property are peculiar to it and do not apply generally to other property in this zoning district; that granting the variances would not adversely affect traffic conditions, light, air nor pose a fire hazard or other danger to neighboring property; would not inerely serve as a convenience to the applicant, but is necessary to alleviate a demonstrable hardship or difficulty; is necessary to preserve a substantia^ property right of the applicant; and would be in keeping with the spint and intent of the Zoning Code and Comprehensive Plan of the City. Page 2 of 5 ! ^ CONCLUSIONS, ORDER AND CONDITIONS Based upon the above findings, the Orono City Council hereby grants variances to Municipal Zoning Code Section 10.25, Subdivision 6 (B) to allow the construction of a new residence to replace the existing residence on a lot of 0.15 acre area and 50' width where a 0.5 acre area and 100' width are normally required, subject to the following conditions: 1. 2. 3. This approval grants only the requested lot area and lot width variances. Development of the property shall not exceed the 35% hardcover limit of the 500-1,000' hardcover zone in which the lot is located. Total lot area is 6,725 s.f., and the maximum hardcover allowed on the property is 35% or 2,353 s.f. Development of the property shall not exceed the 1,500 s.f. "lot coverage by structures" allowance. 4. At the time the existing house is removed, the existing shed shall also be removed. 5. 6. 7. 8. Existing house and shed shall be removed within 90 days of variance approval, and if this is not completed, the applicant is advised the City may proceed with hazardous building action. Applicant is advised as part of this proposal that it is the City's intent to grant no other variances for this property. Authorities granted by this variance run widi the property not with the applicant, but are permissive only and must be exercised by application for a building permit within one year of the date of Council approval, or this variance will expire on that date (September 8, 1998). Violation of or non-compliance with any of the terms and conditions of this variance shall constitute a violation of the zoning code, shall automatically terminate any authority granted herein, and shall be punishable as a misdemeanor.

Gaffron, Asst. Planning & Zoning Administrator DATE: July 14,1997 SUBJECT: #2253 David Reinhold, 3551 Livingston Avenue - Variances - Public Hearing Note: This item was tabled at your July meeting at applicant's request. Zoning District: LR-IC, Single Family Lakeshore Residential, 1/2 acre sewered. Application: Request for lot area/lot width variances to construct a new residence to replace the existing residence. List of Exhibits A - Application B - Plat Map C - Property Owner's List D - Survey E - Hardcover Zone Review Summary of Request This property currently contains an existing 720 s.f. house and 40 s.f. shed. The lot is 50'xl34.5' or 0.15 acre. The LR-1C standards are 100'width and 0.5 acre. Applicant reo-oests area and width variances to allow replacement of the existing house with a new residence, end he indicates he may sell the lot rather than build on it himself. Pertinent Code Sections 1.Section 10.25, Subd. 6 (B); - Lot area required = 21,780 s.f.; existing = 6,725 s.f. Required lot width =100'; existing = 50' - Required setbacks; 30' front and rear, 10 side. Sections 10.22/10.56: Hardcover in 500-1,000' zone is allowed at 35%. Section 10.03, Subd. 14(C); Allowance for lot coverage by structures is 15% of total lot area or 1,500 s.f., whichever is greater. Zoning File #2253 July 14, 1997 Page 2 ; i Discussion The existing house on the property is small and in poor condition, and has not been lived in for a few years. Applicant proposes to remove the existing house and either rebuild himself or sell the lot as a building site. A third option he is considering is sale to neighboring property owners for additional yard area. Applicant has not provided plans for a proposed house for the site. It may be reasonable to grant the variances requested to replace the existing house without knowing the parameters of a new house, only if all setback, hardcover and lot coverage requirements are intended to be adhered to. Given the 35% hardcover limit, the 1,500 s.f. lot coverage allowance, and the required front, rear, side yard setback requirements, a modest residence with two car attached garage could be developed on tWs property without variances other than the requested lot area/width variances. A conforming residence might include the following: A. 28 ’x36' house + 24'x20' attached garage = 1,488 s.f. B. 16'x30' driveway = 480 s.f. C. 3'x32' sidewalk = 96 s.f. D. 10'x28 ’deck =180 s.f. E. lO'xlO’shed = 100 s.f. Total hardcover = 2,344 s.f. or 34.9% Total lot coverage = 1,488 s.f. This home could be two stories in height to gain square footage, but would have to be set at the 30' street setback line in order to meet hardcover requirements. Further, the attached garage would have to face the street. This combination of limitations leaves little flexibility in design, but may also yield an opportunity for creativity. Hardship Both adjacent properties contain existing homes, hence no additional land is available to make the lot larger. Further, of 73 homes in the neighborhoc-^. ounded by Shady wood Road on the east and Blaine Avenue on the west, including Livingston . u;r-. Lyric Avenue and Crystal Place, 41 are on single 50 ’ lots, 23 are on double 100 ’ lots, and 9 are 'j iple 150 ’ or larger lots. Construction of a new residence on this property would not be out of character with the neighborhood, even though it would be significantly smaller than the zoning district standards. Also, it can be argued that a property containing a residence which meets the lot coverage, setback and hardcover standards should not be considered as "over built". Additionally, allowing the replacement of the existing deteriorated structure with a modest residence will help the Cit)' meet its goal of maintaining affordable housing in the City. \ Zoning File #2253 July 14,1997 Page 3 Staff Recommendation If Planning Commission detennines that this lot should be considered buildable, staff would recommend the following conditions of approval: 1. 0 3. 4. 5. 6.

Council voted 5 to 0 to approve the proposed access to Shadywood Road, conditioned on; ., , • u u 1. Temporary approval only, subject to review with comprehensive church site plan. 2. Property owner to add a 6' section of railing along the sidewalk adjacent to the northwest restaurant doorway exit. 3 . No parking lot cross-hatching is required at the northwest restaurant exit, and no stop sign will be required where the new access enters the parking lot. Although not specifically included in Council’s approval motion, staff has included m the attached resolution two addition^ couaitions which were in the staff recommendation: 4. Applicant shall make changes to the existing parking configuration, wWch shall include elimination of the last parking stall adjacent to the westerly Shoreline Dnve exit, and reconfiguration of the parking lot curbing near the new access to create additional green space. 5. Approval subject to driveway construction plan approval by staff; Hennepin County access permit as well as a City land alteration permit will be required. Shared Parking Although not discussed by Planning Commission or Council, it is noted that the easement agreement between O’Sullivan and Adam Smith Company includes an easement for Culver ’s overflow p^kmg to use the conceptually proposed parking spaces in the west half of Navarre Lane as overflow for e Culver ’s operation. These spaces will only be created if the vacation of Navarre Lane is complete Request for Council Action continued Page 2 Septembers, 1997 #2267 John O'Sullivan, 3340 Shoreline/2380 Shadywood Road - Commercial Site Plan Review - Proposed Driveway from Culver's Site to Shadywood Road__________________ and the church site is developed under the conceptual plans briefly reviewed earlier this year. Because the Culver's site as it currently exists meets the minimum parking requirements, this shared parking poses no conflict' with City code, and staff has no problem with this agreement. Applicants are advised that any future development of the church site must be provided with adequate parking per code requirements witl:in that site. Parking spaces on the Culver's site are not eligible for inclusion as required parking for the church site. Staff Recommendation Staff recommends adoption of the attached resolution. COUNCIL ACTION REQUESTED: Adopt the attached resolution. PROPOSED MOTION: Moved by__ granting commercial site plan approval and approval for creation of an access easement to serve the property at 3340 Shoreline Drive. , seconded by____, to adopt Resolution No. A RESOLUTION GRANTING COMMERCIAL SITE PLAN APPROVAL AND CREATION OF AN EASEMENT FOR A DRIVEWAY FROM 3340 SHORELINE DRIVE TO SHADYWOOD ROAD - FILE NO. 2267 WHEREAS, the City of Orono is a municipal corporation organized and existing under the laws of the State of Miimesota; and WHEREAS, John O'Sullivan, owner of the commercial property located at 3340 Shoreline Drive, and Ted Christianson on behalf of Adam Smith Company, owner of the commercial property located at 2380 Shadywood Road, have jointly applied for commercial site plan approval for the construction of an access across 2380 Shadywood Road to serve 3340 Shoreline Drive; and WHEREAS, the subject properties are legally described as follows: 3340 Shoreline Drive:Exhibit A, attached 2380 Shadywood Road: Exhibit B, attached; and WHEREAS, the co-applicants request approval for the creation of an access easement across 2380 Shadywood Road, such easement legally described as follows: Exhibit C, attached; and WHEREAS, the Orono Planning Commission reviewed this request at their regular meeting of July 21, 1997 anvd by a vote of 4 to 2 recommended denial of the request based on safety issues and lack of coordination with the comprehensive development of the 2380 Shadywood Road site; and WHEREAS, on August 11,1997, the Orono City Council reviewed the request of Page 1 of 6 the applicant, and the recommendations of the Planning Commission, City staff, and the City Engineer; and WHEREAS, the on August 11,1997, the City Council on a vote of 5 to 0 approved the proposed easement creation and access construction and directed staff to draft an approval resolution with appropriate conditions; and WHEREAS, in approving this request, the City Council makes the following findings of fact: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. The commercial site at 3340 Shoreline Drive lacks access to Shadywood Road, and such lack of access presents difficulty for customers ingressing and egressing the property. Although no comprehensive site development plan has been approved for the 2380 Shadywood Road property, the preliminary site development proposal includes an access at the location now proposed by applicants for access to 3340 Shoreline Drive. The proposed access location entering Shadywood Road is approximately 130' from the north rightrof-way line of Shoreline Drive where it intersects Shadywood Road. Because the City Engineer has indicated that this distance is potentially less than the optimum separation for an access from the major intersection at this location, and because there is a potential for a free right turn lane to be developed by Hennepin County at some time in the future from westbound Shoreline Drive to northbound Shadywood Road, it »s appropriate to allow the proposed access on a temporary basis only, with the City retaining the right to require the access to be moved if conditions so dictate in the future. Hennepin County Department of Public Works has permit jurisdiction over the proposed access location and has indicated that the County will approve the access as proposed. Because the proposed new access will impact circulation in the parking lot at 3340 Shoreline Drive, Council has reviewed the safety concerns raised by the Planning Commission and has concluded that it is appropriate that anplicant provide a 6' section of railing along the sidewalk outside the northwest restaurant entrance doorway as shown on Exiiibit D attached. Council further finds that the revisions Page 2 of 6 r ff -e „«d for .e nor... iSe »r Exhibit D"i^Hl‘^rtor^eIJTd ‘°.dJM« ^ '“' “ mcronse in hardcover caused by the addS^cess’““ '" conceptu^|/vaS^.'^?I,e'^i^‘™“ 3 <>f Nav^ Lane which has been until such time that its vacation is completed Navarre Lane SSrg^rir-- r-“° Which would be attached 2380 portion of Navarre Lane conditionally approved subject to the conSion easement is portion of Navarre Lane. completion of the vacation of that westerly hereby approves thf^orm^ci^^^sitl City of Orono easement for access purposes over 2380 Shadyv'o^^R'^d^ ^nveway and creation of an on the findings of fact noted above, subt^r.:t.^::^“ Drive based prior to driveway comt^criom''^^ oonstnicUon plan to be approved by City staff pennit prior to conTictfoTof^e^drivm^^ ° bounty access shairS:tht -P°-y basis only.

Changes to the submitted parking plan shall be required as noted in Exhibit D, including: A. Elimination of the last parking stall adjacent to the westerly Shoreline Drive exit to the site; and B. Reconfiguration of the parking lot curbing near the new access to create additional green space. Authorities granted by this variance run with the property not with the owners, but are permissive only and must be exercised by application for a land alteration permit within one year of the date of Council approval, or the special conditions of this resolution will expire on that date (September 8, 1998). Violation of or non-compliance with any of the terms and conditions of this variance shall constitute a violation of the zoning code, shall automatically terminate any authority granted herein, and shall be punishable as a misdemeanor. The undersigned applicants have read, understood and hereby agree to the terrns of this resolution and on behalf of themselves, their heirs, successors and assigns, hereby agree to the recording of this resolution in the Chain of Title of the property.

The City Council finds that the conditions existing on this property are peculiar to it and do not apply generally to other property in this zoning district; that granting the variances would not adversely affect traffic conditions, light, air nor pose a fire hazard or other danger to neighboring property; would not merely serve as a convenience to the applicants, but is necessary to alleviate a demonstrable hardship or difficulty; is necessary to preserve a substantial property right of the applicants; and would be in keeping with the spirit and intent of the Zoning Code and Comprehensive Plan of the City. The City Council finds that granting a conditional use ^rmit to allow an accessory structure on a through lot will not be detrimental to the health, safety or general welfare of the public, would not adversely affect light, air nor pose a fire hazard or other danger to neighboring properties, nor will its use depreciate surrounding property values and that the proposed level of use of the property will be in keeping with the intent and objectives of the Zoning Code and Comprehensive Plan of the City. The City Council has considered this application including the findings and recommendations of the Planmng Commission, reports by City staff, comments by the applicants and the effect of the proposed variances on the health, safety and welfare of the community. CONCLUSIONS, ORDER AND CONDITIONS Based upon one or more of the above findings, the Orono City Council hereby grants variances for height and location of an accessory structure in front of a principal structure to Municipal Zoning Code Section 10.03, Subdivisions 9 (B& D); and a conditional use permit for locating an accessory structure on a through lot per Section 10.03, Subdivision 10 to permit construction of a 26' x 38' detached garage, subject to the following conditions: Page 2 of 5 J J -i 1.

The proposed height of the garage is 22.5' as measured fi-om to the peak of the roof, where the height of the existing residence is 13 feet in accordance with Planning Commission recommendation. Variances are needed for locating the garage in front of a principal structure and for the height of an accessory structure exceeding that of the principal structure. The need for a side variance has been eliminated as the applicants have agreed to locate the garage within the required side setback. A conditional use permit is required for its location on a through lot._________________________ Pertinent Ordinances: • Section 10.03-General Provisions • Section 10.03-Subd. 9 B: Height Restrictions Subd. 9 D: Location Subd. 9 E: Setbacks Subd. 10: CUP Through Lot • Section 10.03-Subd. 15 A: Non-Encroachments U2270 Marcia and Kenneth Hickey r -----------^view Lane 9/15/97 ^ge I r L ANALYSIS T ot Area and Yards LR-IB District Standards Lot Area Lot Width Front Yard Side Yard Rear Yard 1 acre 140 feet 35 feet 10 feet (15 feet for structures > 750 s.f.) 35 feet (abutting street) Subject Property Lot Area and Yards Lot Area Lot Width Street Yard Side Yard 1.08 acres 120 feet 110 feet to house 15 feet for proposed garage The subject property meets lot size requirements.

The subject property wth the proposed garage does not exceed hardcover limitations. Criteria for Determining Undue Hardship 1. The property in question cannot be put to a reasonable use if used under conditions allowed by the official controls. It would be possible for the owners to obtain reasonable use of the property in its current state, however, currently there is no enclosed storage for vehicles on the lot. Building the proposed structure would allow them greater enjoyment of their property. The garage would allow them to park their boat and camper out of view and protect them from the elements. 2. The plight of the landowner is due to circumstances unique to his property not created by the landowner. There are topographical limitations on the property. The rear yard has significant slope, as well as the south side yard. The north side yard does not allow sufficient space for the construction of a garage. Due to these limitations, the area in front of the principal structure is the only feasible location for a garage. 3. The variances, if granted, will not alter the essential character of the locality. Planning Commission recommends that locating a garage 22.5' in height as measured to the peak of the roof, which exceeds the height of the principal structure and that is nearer to the front lot line than the principal structure will not have a detrimental effect on the character of the locality. §2270 Marcia and Kenneth Hickey 4640 Tonkavie\e Lane 9/13/97 Page 3 4. 5. Economic considerations alone shall not constitute an undue hardship if reasonable use for the property exists under the terms of this chapter. Economic factors are not a consideration wth this application. Undue hardship also includes, but is not limited to, inadequate access to direct sunlight for solar energy systems. Solar access is not a consideration. 6. - ■■ /• 7. 8. The Board of Appeals and Adjustments or the Council may not permit as a variance for any use that is not permitted under this Chapter for the propert>' in the zone where the affected person's land is located. A detached garage on a through lot is a conditional use in this zoning district. The Board or Council may permit as a variance the temporary use of a one-family dwelling as a two-family dwelling. Not applicable. The special conditions applying to the structure of land in question are peculiar to such property or inunediately adjoining property. 9. Due to significant topography and lot configuration, location of the desired garage elsewhere on the property would be difficult. The conditions do not apply generally to other land or structures in the district in which said land is located. Many lots in the surrounding area have significant topography limiting where development may occur on the lots. 10. The granting of the application is necessary for the preservation and enjoyment of a substantial property right of the applicant. The applicants should be asked for their testimony regarding this issue. Also refer to the attached statement of hardship. 11. The granting of the proposed variance will not in any way impair health, safety, comfort, morals, or in any other respect be contrary to the intent of the Zoning Code. U2270 Marcia and Kenneth Hickey 4640 Tonkaview Lane 9/15/97 Page 4 I' 1 I The variance will not impair health, safety, comfort or morals. 12. The granting of such variance will not merely serve as a convenience to the applicant, but is necessary to alleviate demonstrable hardship or difficulty. The variance for locating the garage in front of the principal structure is necessary to alleviate hardship. The significant topography inhibits construction of the garage elsewhere on the lot. The variance for height is a compromise made by Planning Commission as the height of the garage the applicant previously proposed was 28' in height as measured to the peak of the roof 1SSUS2 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. The applicants have submitted two separate proposals for the design of their proposed garage. Their preferred option includes an overhang extending approximately 7 off of the front of the building. Overhangs exceeding 1.5' are considered encroachments. If this is allowed, a front setback variance will be required as the southwest comer of the garage is already near the front setback line. The alternate design option lacks the overhang and would require no additional variances. The proposals before you are revisions of the applicant's previous plans based on Planning Commission's recommendations. The initial proposal required a side yard setback reduction from 15' to 11'. Due to the lot width being 20 feet less than the zoning district minimum standard and the location of the house, it is not possible to build the garage on the relatively level north side yard. The rear and south side yards have significant downhill slopes away from the street. Some large trees have already been removed. It appears that Cottonwoods, which are not considered to be a desired species were removed. A non-conforming 12.30' by 12.47' shed exists near the street within the required front yard setback. Planning Commission recommends the removal the shed of prior to any new construction. “^0 Starcia and Kenneth Hickey 4640 Tonkaview Lane 9/15/97 Pages STAFF RECOMMENDATION The applicants have met the concerns of the Planning Commission Attachments A B C D E F G H I Location Map Application Statement of Hardship Plat Map Topographic Map Hardcover Calculations Applicant's Preferred Proposed Structure-Front and Side Views Alternate Proposed Structure-Front and Side Views Rear View for Both Alternatives I U2270 Marcia and Kenneth Hickey 4640 Tonkaview Lane 9/15/97 Page 6 I 7 . i !' ■■ Application # cPc^ "70 Date Received (o '-0~7 Amount Paid fs CITY OF ORONO - VARIANCE APPLICATION Initial Application Fee $220.00 ($50.00 per each additional variance) Renewal Variance Fee $120.00 (no change from original application) Variance for non-conforming structures $22 After-the-Fact Fees (Double application fee) / PROPERTY INFO Site Address FOR^TION'iCfo 2- t/f Property Identification Number (P.I.D.) 07' U?'2?) 32 OC>^3 Attach legal description to application if not included on required survey.

The applicants previously presented a sketch plan for a three lot subdivision (#2203 in January 1997). Applicants were directed to determine the extent of the glencoe wetland. Applicants were also instructed that if three lots were proposed, the private road outlot must be platted to connect to the extension of Outlot B in the Shadowood plat.

A lot typically separated from a public or private road by another lot ana which gains access to the public or private road via a narrow corridor. Such a separated lot is considered to be a "backlot" when the corridor is platted as an outlot. A separated lot is considerc--; .o be a "flag lot" when the corridor is platted as part of the lot.

Settles said the reports indicate there will be no impact noting the land is only a long, narrow stnp. nuth inquu-ed if there would be any detours or rerouting of traffic. She was informed tMt the construction would be staged such as half the road would be built at a time allowing for on-going two-lane traffic by use of one lane and the shoulder. McMillan questioned the surcharging. Guy Knowlan said the surcharging will make use ot a select granular sand, which over an appro.ximate 6 month period of time wUl compress the air and water out of the material to allow Class 6 and bituminous to be laid over It. The north <5»de would be affected 1.2 meters and driveways will be left lower to accommodate the surcharging. There were no public comments. Gaffron informed Lindquist that the Council is considering a ponding agreement but does not wash to delay the project. Polaczyk noted the construction cooperative agreement between Hennepin County and Orono states such language listing the responsibilities regarding maintenance and funding participation between the County and City. He explamed the costs regarding right-of-way and construction as well as the City contribution of the Femdale Cutoff for mitigation. Schroeder moved, Lindquist seronded, to recommend approval of the CUP and variances for alteration of existing wetlands in conjunction with the reconstruction of County Road 15 from Orono Orchard Road to the eastern border of the City with the recommendation that the Council pursue alternate mitigation sites. Vote: Ayes 4 NaysO SKETCH PLAN/COXCEPTUAL REVIEWS (#8) #2203 TED WOLF, 900 WILLOW DRIVE - SKETCH PLAN REVIEW FOR PROPOSED CLASS HI SUBDIVISION The applicant was represented by Mark Gronberg and Mike Hilbelink. 6- I MINUTES OF THE ORONO PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING HELD ON JANUARY 21, 1997 (#8 - #2203 Ted Wolf - Continued) Mabusth reported that the applicant proposes a three lot subdivision of the 8o acre property located in the RR-IB Zoning District. The propeny is subject to the Shoreland Regulations as it is located within 1000 feet of Dickey Lake, an natural environmental lake Structures and septic drainJfields are not allowed within 150 of OHWL at 985.5. The existing residence within the property currently has access oflf of Willow Drive. Outlot B of the Shadowoods plat to the immediate north was created to provide a future loop road to Willow Drive. The applicant proposes a single driveway is proposed to be installed within the Shadowoods outlot to eliminate impact on vegetation. The subdivision, Shadowood Farms, is serv’ed by a cul-de-sac road 1300 ft in length. This driveway would increase that access from the 1300 ft. to 1600 ft. The code would aUow a 1000' length. It was the City ’s plan to plat and install a future loop road. Mabusth reported that the dry buildable has not yet been determined and will be a factor in whether there is a two or three lot division. Mark Gronberg indicated a wetlano delineation occurred about six weeks ago using aerial and field checks. Mabusth noted that the wetland consists of 2 types, PA and glencoe, adding that the soils of the glencoe need to be determined. Gronberg will get the results of the testing to Mabusth. McMillan noted for the Planning Commission that winter testing is not guaranteed and will require further confirmation. If a 3-lot subdivision were to occur, Staff must ask for a future corridor connecting Cox Farm Road with private road in subdivision. If a 2-lot subdivision is proposed, the City may not ask for a platted extension at this time. Mabusth noted that a let:er signed by the Sanford's, 945 Cox Farm Road, along with 10 other property owners of Shadowood, asked for elimination of Outlot B extension road. Lindquist read the letter "into the record voicing concern over access from Outlot B. The residents feel two lots are not an extensive development and the City's right to outlot B does not exist citing safety and environmental impact with the number of maple trees existing in 0 -tlot B. The residents voiced concern over impact to the wetlands and Dickey Lake and prefer an access from the subject property. Gronberg noted the possibility of a loop road. He did not feel they would have to use the driveway _nd do not wish to connect all the way through for the two lots. He asked for consideration of the 30' outlot for two lots from Willow Drive with Lot 1 using the existing access. Lindquist asked if two curb cuts were possible. Gronberg said there were no sight line problems. Mabusth said this would require input from Greg Gappa, the Director of Public Services. It was noted that t^e Ringerswood plat does not have a connecting corridor to north lot line or subject property. r »*<■ I MhHTlNCi HELD ON JANUARY 21, 1997 (rrS - #2203 Ted Wolf - Continued) Schroeder asked if the reason for a loop road was for safety purposes. Mabusth said the concern was for safety and this pattern for development is recorded in the Comprehensive developed with a temporary cul-de-sac. HiJbelmk said the applicant prefers the way the property access is currently laid out and Goes not propose to eirtend the cul-de-sac. Schroeder asked if an outlet could serve as a driveway. Mabusth said a 3-lot plat would require a private road. Mabusth questioned the loop drive that serves proposed Lot I and the requirement to maintain its use. Lindquist said ideally he would see all access off of the future road out ot. McMillan noted the difficulty of installing the connecting road outlots once development takes place. The roads should be installed prior to development or placed closer to the boundary of the developed site. Mabusth informed Schroeder that there were no standards for driveways. She informed him the access serv^g three units would have to be a private road. Lindquist noted the 50 ’ outlot would still be platted. Schroeder questioned whether there was enough land. Gronberg said there was 3.05 acres to the wetland area. He noted there would be a need for an S" shape to hook up to the outlot. It was felt there would be adequate land. During public comments, Matthew Sanford, 945 Co.x Farm Road, informed the Comim^sion that the propeny owners of Shadowood were unanimously opposed to the use of Outlot B. He noted that one reason for the purchase of his property was because of the Running maples located there. Schroeder informed him that it was not the intent of the Commission to have to cut down those trees. The Commssion discussed the options for access. M:> Jillan noted the need to have the Mdition^ irformation regarding the wetland on Lot 3 in solving access from Willow Drive. Mabusth advised that the final resolution of the access issue is dependent on the number of residential units. Lindquist noted the need for assurance that there is enough dry buudable land for three lots. Applicant’s representatives were informed that if there was a 3-lot subdivision, the 50 ’ outlot must be a private road designed to connect with Outlot B of Shadowoods. The private road could be constructed with a temporary cul-de- sac. Mabusth inquired about septic testing. Gronberg informed her that the testing has been completed and all three lots have acceptable sites for septic systems. Schroeder said he would be inclined to plat a road outlot with a 30’ corridor with a dnveway. Concern was voiced that it would be difficult in the future to divide if the outlot was not platted at 50 ’. A suggestion was made for a driveway installed within Outlot B that was specifically created as a connection corridor. Sanford asked that Outlot B be stipulated that no driveway would be constructed off of it. His concerns were noted. r Wf^m »/. a •&s#-^ ll^i mmmn CSty- of OH.ON'O RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL NO. 238° _^Mmm ■ 'yv; .r mi -C.-T ,L .

Oberhauser (hereinafter "the owner") within the City of Orono (hereinafter "the City") and legally described as follows: see Exhibit A attached (hereinafter "the property"); and WHEREAS, after due published notice and mailed notice in accordance with Minnesota Statutes and the City of Orono Zoning and Planning Codes, the Orono Planning Commission held a public hearing on August 18, 1997, at which time all persons desiring to be heard concerning this application were given the opportunity to speak thereon; and WHEREAS, the applicants have applied to the City for variances to Municipal Zoning Code Section 10.25, Subdivisions 6 (A & B) and Section 10.22, Subdivisions 1, 2 and 3 to permit a new residence on a vacant lot of record. Variances are requested to allow a reduction of lot area of 12,745.5 sq. ft. where 21,730 sq. ft. is required, and a lot width variance to allow a lot width of 50' where 100' is required.

This application was reviewed as Zoning File #2276. The property is located in the LR-IC Single Family Lakeshore Residential Zoning District requiring one-half acre or 21,730 sq. ft. is the minimum lot area. The property consists .29 acres or 12,754.5 sq. ft. Page 1 of 7 ] ■i. r u 3.The Orono Planning Commission reviewed this application on August 18, 1997 and recommended approval on a vote of 4 to 3. 4. The Planning Commission made the following findings of fact: A. The lot is an existing lot of record. B. The lot is 12,754.5 sq. ft. or .29 acres. It does not meet the minimum lot area requirements of the LR-IC district. C.This is an unusual shaped parcel as it is situated in relation to Shoreline Drive and Dunwoody Avenue and Lake Minnetonka. D.The amount of hardcover for the long driveway and turnaround are due to the access being provided from Dunwoody Avenue and the need for safe ingress/egress. The City Council finds that the conditions existing on this property are peculiar to it and do not apply generally to other property in this zoning district; that granting the variances would not adversely affect traffic conditions, light, air nor pose a fire hazard or other danger to neighboring property; would not merely serve as a convenience to the applicants, but is necessary to alleviate a demonstrable hardship or difficulty; is necessary to preserve a substantial property right of the applicants; and would be in keeping with the spirit and intent of the Zoning Code and Comprehensive Plan of the City. The City Council has considered this application including the findings and recommendations of the Planning Commission, reports by City staff, comments by the applicants and the effect of the proposed variance on the health, safety and welfare of the community. Page 2 of 7 lilfcMT.aa r CONCLUSIONS, ORDER AND CONDITIONS Based upon one or more of the above findings, the Orono City Council hereby grants variances to Municipal Zoning Code Section 10.25, Subdivisions 6 (A & B) and Section 10.22, Subdivisions 1, 2 and 3 to permit construction of a new residence on a vacant lot where the minimum lot area and lot width are not met and to allow 43.15% (3,810 sq. ft.) of hardcover where none is existing and 2,207.5 sq. ft. (25%) is allowed. Approval was subject to the following conditions: 1. The structural lot coverage shall not exceed 1,913.17 sq. ft.

Variances are needed for lot area, lot width, and hardcover. The need for a structural coverage variance has been eliminated because the applicants have redesigned the house and garage. Other issues with this application include relocation of a water line that serves 2425 Dunwoody Avenue, the proposed driveway and access to Dunwoody Avenue, dedication of an easement for sanitary sewer line across the property, and relocation of a water line that serves the adjacent property. Pertinent Ordinances: • Section 10.25, One Family Lakeshore Residential District, Area, Height, Lot Width and Yard Requirements, Subd. 6 A. and B. • Section 10.22, Subd. 1. and Subd. 2, Lakeshore Hardcover and Land Alteration Regulations and Subd. 3, Tree Removal Regulations • Section 10.03, General Provisions, Subd. 14, Yards and Open Space, C.

The applicant needs to provide a turnaround area for safe access to Dunwoody Avenue. The length of the driveway also effects the amount of hardcover because of the lot's relationship to the two streets and the lake. The house is situated as close to the lake and as far away from the two roads as possible. STATEMENT OF HARDSHIP The applicants have stated that a narrow and very long lot requires a long driveway which in turn increases the hardcover percentage. Criteria for Determining Undue Hardship 1. The property in question cannot be put to a reasonable use if used under conditions allowed by the official controls. The property is currently vacant. Any new residential construction on this site requires a variance for lot area and lot width. It would be difficult to design a structure with a driveway that is less than 25% hardcover because the turnaround and driveway represent 15.28 % of the lot area. A house, garage, and deck would then be limited to less than 10% of the lot area in the '75-'250 setback which would be 857.5 sq. ft. #2275 Brent andJutie Walton 2405 Dunwoody Avenue August 18. 1997 page-3 fur :y- ’ *■ 2. The plight of the landowner is due to circumstances unique to his property not created by the landowner. The plight of the landowner is due to the existing lot size. The Plaiming Commission previously reviewed a sketch plan to combine three lots on this comer to allow two units. 3. The variance, if granted, will not alter the essential character of the locality. Residential development on this property would be an improvement over the condition of the vacant lot. 4. 5. 6. 7. Economic considerations alone shall not constitute an undue hardship if reasonable use for the property exists under the terms of this chapter. Economic factors are not a consideration with this application. Undue hardship also includes, but is not limited to, inadequate access to direct sunlight for solar energy systems. Solar access is not a consideration. The Board of Appeals and Adjustments or the Council may not permit as a variance for any use that is not permitted under this Chapter for the property in the zone where the affected person's land is located. Residential uses are allowed in this zoning district. The Board or Council may permit as a variance the temporary use of a one-family dwelling as a two-family dwelling. Not applicable. The special conditions applying to the stmcture of land in question are peculiar to such property or immediately adjoining property. The conditions that apply to this lot are due to the lot size and the relationship of the lot ♦o Shoreline Dr. and Dunwoody Avenue. #2276 Brent and Julie Walton 2405 Dunwoody Avenue August 18, 1997 page-4 „ ► <a» T.... 11. 12. The conditions do not apply generally to other land or structures in the district in which said land is located. Lots in this neighborhood district tend to be narrower and do not meet the lot area requirements. Many lots in this area do not meet lot area and lot width requirements and often do not meet hardcover requirements. The granting of the application is necessary for the preservation and enjoyment of a substantial property right of the applicant. The variances for lot width, lot area, and hardcover are needed to build a house on this lot as proposed. The granting of the proposed variance will not in any way impair health, safety, comfort, morals, or in any other respect be contrary to the intent of the Zoning Code. Variances for lot area and lot width will allow the lot to be built upon. The granting of such variance will not merely serve as a convenience to the applicant, but is necessary to alleviate demonstrable hardship or difficulty. The granting of the variances will allow the applicant to purchase the property to construct a new residence. i I : i r Issues There are numerous issues with this application. 1. The need for a structural coverage variances has been eliminated. 2. The driveway has been redesigned to tie into the existing curb cut and to provide a turnaround ai:e»’native to backing out. 3 . The hardcover worksheets as submitted are for the first plan that was submitted. They need to be redone to show the revised plans. Any proposed hardcover along the shoreline shall be shown so that the complete amount of hardcover on the site can be considered. 4.The applicants have agreed to provide an easement for the sanitary sewer upon finalizing purchase of the property. if2276 Brent andJutie Walton 2405 Dunv/oody Avenue August 18. 1997 page-5 M? / 7 / .0 - 5 • « • • .j • *4 AAv » • Sanitary Sewer Easement Description for Brent Walton in Lot 2, Block 8, Townsite of Langdon Park Hennepin County, Minnesota August 25,1997 \ • •• • • » A 20 foot easement for sanitary sewer purposes over, under and across that part of/the following described property: That part of Lot 2, Block 8, Townsite of Langdon Park, described as follows: Beginning at a point of Northeasteily line of said Lot 2 distant 5.00 feet southeasterly from the Northeast comer of said Lot 2; thence southwesterly parallel with the Southeasterly line of said Lot 2 to the shore of Lake Minnetonka: thence southeasterly along said shore to the Southeasterly line of said Lot 2; thence northeasterly along said Southeasterly line to the most Easterly comer of said Lot 2; thence northwesterly along the Northeasterly line of said Lot 2 to the point of beginning. which lies within 10 feet on each side of the following described centerline: Commencing at the most Easterly comer of said Lot 2; thence southwesterly along the southeasterly line of said Lot 2 a distance of 220.00 feet to the point of beginning of the line being described; thence northwesterly deflecting nghtSI degrees 30 minutes to its intersection with the northwesterly line of the above described property, and said centerline there ending.

The proposed project financing is described below. 1) Assessment on all properties in the Navarre water system service area. $350 X 752 properties = $263,200. Assessment to be payable over a 5 year time period. 2) $200,000 from cash reserves in the water fund 3) $276,800 internal loan to the water fund from other City funds. Total estimated project cost: $740,000. We are projecting a 2.95% per year increase in water rates for the next 15 years based on current trends. This annual rate increase should provide adequate funding for effective maintenance and operation of the water system. The proposed schedule is to bid the project in January 1998 and begin construction in September 1998. This will allow time for the contractor to order and receive the new electrical control equipment before starting construction after the summer peak water usage season.

Cost Analysis Table 1 - Cost Summary Project Schedule Navarre WTP Rehabilitation ti. ':-v •MlMkH.filltiff""'" ' I. Introduction The City Council has requested this report to determine the feasibility of rehabilitating the Navarre Water Treatment Plant (WTP). The Navarre WTP provides water to the Navarre area of the City of Orono. The Navarre water system serves 752 properties and approximately 1,685 persons. The Navarre WTP was constructed in 1971. The water treatment plant includes a pre-fabricated steel filter to remove iron and manganese from the water pumped from Wells No. 1 and 2. Three ion exchange softeners follow the filter to remove hardness causing elements, primarily calcium and magnesium. P ! H L) 1995, the City of Orono commissioned a study titled Water Treatment Facility Needs and Improvement Study. That study concluded that the structure of the water treatment plant was sound. Further, that study concluded that it was cost-effective to rehabilitate the existing filter and softeners and the related mechanical and electrical equipment in the plant. ^ . f Navarre WTP Rehabilitation ■‘■1 II. Summary and Recommendations i The rehabilitation of the Navarre WTP is feasible from an engineering standpoint. The project is necessary to extend the useful life of the water treatment plant an additional 20 to 25 years. The capital cost as well as operation and maintenance costs have been considered in determining that the project is cost effective. The cost of these improvements are interrelated and should be assigned equitably between all properties. The following recommendations are presented for consideration by the Orono City Council: 1.That this Report be adopted as the guide for rehabilitation of the water treatment plant. 2.

Discharge from the softening units to the sanitary sewer cannot be measured. This means that operation of the process cannot be monitored and no accountability for the amount of water discharged exists. To remedy this problem, discharge flow meters on each softening unit will be installed. M 7. The electrical system consists of nearly all original equipment. The original motor starters and incandescent lighting systems will be replaced for enhanced reliability. 8. The existing automatic control valves on the softening units arc original equipment and no longer function reliably. These valves will be replaced. 9. The interior ferrous metals in the water plant building show signs of corrosion due to condensation. Increases in the amount of ventilation and dehumidification inside the facility to control the problems ass^iated with condensation will be made. 10. The plant’s control systems are at the end of their useful life. This equipment will be replaced with a new supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) system. 11. The piping within the water treatment plant is all original. As renovations take place, all related piping will be inspected and replaced as necessary. The improvement! <\uilined above will extend the usefu? ’ of the water treatment plant an additional 20 t - 25 years. Iron and manganese levels in u.c acated water will be below the Secondary Standards of the Safe Drinking Water Act. Because of the proposed changes in the operation of the softening units, a more uniform, more stable treated water will be produced. This, in turn, will help to alleviate problems with high copper and lead levels in the distribution system. Navarre WTP Rehabilitation »» rv.

DATE: September 4^9^ ITEM NO: Department Approval: Name Ron Moorse Title City Administrator Administrator Reviewed:Agenda Section: City Administrator's Report Item Description: ^ ' Proposed 1998 Budget and Tax Levy - Resolutions Proposed 1998 Budget The proposed 1998 Budget accommodates a number of necessary expenditure increases while holding the tax levy to the planned increase of less than 3%. A number of expenditure requirements have occurred simultaneously to cause the need to increase expenditures beyond the normal level. Although the General Fund expenditures are proposed to increase by 5.53%, these expenditures can be accommodated within a tax levy increase of less than 3% because several of the increases are offset by related revenue increases. Expenditures and Tax Lew The city’s 1998 General Fund budget expenditures are proposed at $3,638,095. This is an increase of $190,490 or 5.53% over the 1997 budget. The tax levy required to fund the general fund budget is $1,750,000. This is an increase of $69,020 or 4.11% over the 1997 General Fund tax levy. The total tax levy required to fund the overall 1998 city budget is $2,225,130. This is an increase of $63,500 or 2.94% over the 1997 levy. Property Class Rate Reductions and Tax Tanacitv Rate The 1 997 Legislature enacted property class rate reductions for both residential and commercial property. The most significant changes in property class rates were the reduction of the residential rate for value over $75,000 from 2% to 1.85%, and the reduction of the conunercial class rate for value over $100,000 from 4.6% to 4.0%. Due to the property class rate reductions, the city's tax capacity growth for 1998 taxes is minimal. The tax capacity for 1997 taxes was $14,874,819. Without the reduction in property class rates, the tax capacity for 1998 taxes would have been $16,178,830, an increase of 8% over 1997. With the reduction in property class rates, the tax capacity for 1998 taxes is projected to be approximately $14,921,498 or an increase of .3% over 1997. Based on the proposed 1998 tax levy, and the minimal increase in tax capacity, the city’s tax rate will increase from 14.251% to approximately 14.690%. This is an increase of 3%.

The costs of fire service provided to Orono by the four fire departments have been increasing well beyond the general inflation rate. The proposed budget includes a 7.45% increase in fire service costs. B. Other General Fund Expenditure Increases 1. ) Planning intern: $14,000. The need for the planning intern is caused by a very high level of planning and zoning activity. This activity is producing additional revenue which will be used to fund the position. 2. ) Two position reclassifications have resulted in increased pay to reflect increased responsibilities (Deputy Clerk/MIS Assistant and Senior Planning Coordinator). 3. ) 3% general pay adjustment. Although this increase is higher than the current consumer price index, it is part of the second year of a two year agreement with the police officers. 4. ) Police longevity pay step increases. Five police officers will all receive step increases in the longevity pay schedule in 1998. Each step increase is a 2% increase in pay. The total cost of these increases is $5,000. 5. ) Police sergeant position. This position, which will be added in 1997, will add $6,000 to the police budget in 1998. 6. ) Increase of $10,000 in part time police officer pay. The need for additional part time officer hours to fill in on miscellaneous shifts has increased for two reasons. One, as officers increase in age and longevity, they accrue and use more vacation time. Because the department needs to maintain minimum staffing levels, these shifts have to be filled. It is most cost effective to fill them with part time officers. Two, as the area grows, the level of general activity increases. This keeps the shift officers busier and less able to provide requested services such as speed enforcement The part time officers are also used for these types of activity. 7. ) Elections related expenditures will increase $8,600 due to 1998 being an election year. New Program Options The Council has determined that the budget will include $20,000 for new programs, such as those listed below. The Council has not determined which specific programs will be funded. f I Request for Council Action Continued September 4,1997Proposed 1998 Budget and Tax Levy - Resolutions 1. Fire/hazardous material inspection. This could most cost effectively be accomplished by contracting with another city for this service. The estimated cost is $5-7,000 per year. 2. Merit pav program. The Council supports the development of a merit pay system to enable o; ‘"Standing performance to be rewarded. The general plan for this program is to proviuv -m amount of merit pay dollars that could be paid out as a performance bonus to rc -ognize, reward and encourage outstanding performance. 3. Comprehensive Plan update. The city is mandated to update its Comprehensive Plan by the end of 1998. The cost of this effort is uncertain at this point. Staff has applied for a grant through the Metropolitan Council which could cover a significant portion of the city's costs. 4. Funding for park land acquisition and park development. There has been some discussion that the city's park dedication fee revenue will not be sufficient to meet the needs of the city regarding parkland acquisition and park development. The Council may want to supplement the park dedication fee revenue by initiating a tax levy for park land acquisition and park development. It is very unclear at this point what the city's future expenditures for park land acquisition and park development might be. Lew Limits The 1997 Legislature imposed levy limits on cities for 1998 and 1999. The levy limit is tied to the implicit price deflator and household growth. The city's levy limit for the 1998 budget is $2,265,600. This is an increase of $103,970 or 4.81%. The proposed tax levy is well under this levy limit amount. Funding for Major Infrastructure Rehabilitation/Construction The 1998 budget follows the direction set by recent budgets toward putting the city into a better position to address both current and long term needs for infrastructure rehabilitation/construction. The three main areas of infrastructure rehabilitation/construction are as follows: 1. Sewer and water infrastructure 2. Street infrastructure 3. Storm drainage infrastructure Request for Council Action Continued September 4,1997 Proposed 1998 Budget and Tax Levj’ - Resolutions Sewer and Water Infrastructure Rehabilitation and Utility Rate Increases A. Water Fund. The Council has determined that water rates should be sufficiem to fully fund 100% of depreciation on all water infrastructure. This will provide funding to enable the city . to address long term water infrastructure rehabilitation needs. The Council has also authorized staff to move forward with the project review and approval process related to the rehabilitation of the Navarre water plant. This project has a cost of $740,000. Staff has projected that in order to fund the water plant rehabilitation and 100% of depreciation on water infrastructure, the water rates will need to increase 2.9% per year over thw next 20 years. B.Sewer Fund. The Council has directed that the sewer rates be set so that the depreciation on sewer infrastructure would be 100% funded. To accomplish this, the minimum sewer rate increase, on an annual basis over the next 20 years, needs to be 3.2%. Street Infrastructure Repair and Maintenance The city provides for general street maintenance activities, such as pot hole patching and snow and ice control, with in-house staff and equipment. Other activities designed to e.\tend the life of the city's streets, such as sealcoating and overlays, are provided through the use of private contractors. The 1998 budget includes $97,000 for contractual street maintenance in the General Fund. As in 1997, an additional amount ($40,000) is included in the PIR Fund to enable the city to do more overlay work. The overlays can extend the life of a roadway by up to 10 years and also reduce or eliminate the need for other maintenance activities during this pe»^od. Funding for Storm Drainage Infrastmr.tiire There are currently a substantial number o^^ stormwater drainage problem areas in the city. Although some of these can be solved with projects costing in the range of $20-30,000, several of these could require projects with costs approaching $100,000. In addition, there are a number of areas in the city in which a large volume of "untreated" stormwater flows directly into Lake Minnetonka. The Surface Water Management Plan being completed by Bonestroo and Associates will identify a set of stormwater improvement projects that will address many of these problem areas in addition to addressing other stormwater drainage needs. The storm drainage infrastructure will require a large amount of funding from a number of different sources over the next 10 to 20 years. As a significant step in providing funding for storm drainage infrastructure, the city initiated, in the 1996 budget a levy amount of $40,000 per year for storm r F:‘ Request for Council Action Continued September 4,1997 Proposed 1998 Budget and Tax Levy - Resolutions drainage infrastructure. This levy amount is maintained in the 1998 budget. Budget and Tax Lew Adoption The city is required to adopt a budget and tax levy so that the levy can be certified to the County by September 15, and so that a summary of the budget can be published along with the notice of the Truth in Taxation Hearing in November. After adoption^ the proposed tax levy cannot be increased, but can be reduced prior to final budget adoption after the Truth-in-Taxation hearing in December. The proposed budget can also be changed prior to final adoption in December. Resolutions adopting the preliminary 1998 budget and proposed tax levy are attached for Council adoption.

DECEMBER 1997 ,1 ' » ■ Pv.' : < r i REQUEST FOR COUNCIL ACTION Department Approval: Name Ron Moorse Title City Administrator DATE: September 4, 1997 ^ ITEM NO 'V Administrator Reviewed:Agenda Sectidv^ City Administrator’s Report % Item Description: Policy Regarding Inclusion of Properties in Sanitary Sewer Project - Resolution The city’s policy regarding the inclusion of properties in a sewer project area has been that if a property is within a project area and the sewer line passes the property, the property is in the project, regardless of the size of the lot or the condition of the septic system. A property on the fringe of the project area can be excluded from the project if the property has a minimum of 2 acres, a septic system meeting all code requirements, and an alternate septic site. As the city has undertaken projects using the current policy, the city has found that the timing of a sewer project is not always in sync with the timing of the need for septic system replacements. At the point a project is undertaken, the various properties in the project area are at various stages in relation to their septic systems. Some have systems that are failing and require immediate replacement, while others have installed new systems a very short time prior to the project being identified or reviewed. Because of the timing problem, when the city undertakes a project there will be those who cannot obtain the sewer soon enough, and those who just installed a new septic system and don't want to pay again for sewer. The situation where a property in a proposed sewer area has a newer, code compliant septic system will appear more often as the city deals with more, but smaller, neighborhoods who decide they want sewer versus septic. There will probably always be one or two properties who have recently replaced their septic systems. Proposed New Policy To address the timing problem of new septic systems versus new sewer projects. Council directed that the policy regarding inclusion in a sewer project be changed to enable a property with a newly upgraded septic system that meets all current code requirements to opt out of the sewer project. The resolution provides that the age of the septic system can be amaximum of seven years. The Council may want to increase or decrease this number; or may determine that the age of the system is not relevant, as long as the system is in compliance with all current code requirements. The Council also directed that the policy provide that the owner of the property can decide at any time in the future to connect to the sewer system. The property will then pay a connection charge equal to the full per unit cost of the initial sewer project increased by a cost of living factor on an annual basis. A resolution setting out this policy change is attached for Council adoption. COUNCIL ACTION REQUESTED: Motion to adopt a resolution amending the city's policy regarding inclusion of properties in sanitary sewer projects. 1' A RESOLUTION AMENDING CITY POLICY REGARDING INCLUSION OF PROPERTIES IN A SANITARY SEWER PROJECT sewerWHEREAS, the city has had a policy requiring inclusion of properties in sanitary _ projects with the exception of a property on the fringe of the project area if the property has a minimum of 2 acres, a septic system meeting all code requirements, and an alternate septic site, and WHEREAS, the city has found that the timing of a sewer project is not always in sync with the timing of the need for septic system replacements, so that project areas tend to include a small number of properties with recently upgraded septic systems, and WHEREAS, those properties with recently upgraded septic systems may determine it is in their interest to opt out of the project to avoid paying a sewer assessment in addition to the recent cost of upgrading their septic system, and WHEREAS, it is reasonable to allow properties with recently upgraded septic systems that meet all current code requirements to opt out of a sewer project, and WHEREAS, it is not in the best interests of the city that a small number of properties with recently upgraded septic systems prevent a sewer project, that would benefit a large number of properties, from moving ahead, and WHEREAS, if a property that opted out of a sewer project desires to connect to the sewer project in the future, the property should pay the full per umt project cost as a connection charge. NOW, THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED, that the Orono City Council does hereby amend the city policy regarding the inclusion of properties in sanitary sewer projects to enable a property within a sewer project area to opt out of the project if the property has a septic system that meets all current code requirements and is less than 7 years old. BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that if the owner of the opt out property decides at any time in the future to connect to the sewer system, the property will pay a connection charge equal to the full per umt cost of the initial sewer project increased by a cost of living factor on an annual basis.

Council indicated that the final assessment interest rate could be lower due to favorable conditions. The bonds were sold at a true interest cost of 4.9793%. Therefore, the interest rate applied to the special assessments can be reduced from 8.00% to 6.25%. The interest on the assessments is to begin accruing effective October 1, 1997, with interest added through December 31, 1998, for the first year of collection. The assessment roll currently includes the property at 1490 Long Lake Road, ovmed by Troy Anderson. Mr Anderson has appealed the assessment and the Council directed that his property be excluded from the project. The City Attorney will advise the city as to the proper method of officially excluding the property from the project. Once this is accomplished, the property will be removed from the assessment roll. Two properties, each with an adjacent undeveloped lot under common ownership, were included in the project with the condition that the adjacent lot be combined with the lot receiving sewer. These properties are located at 2085 County Road 6 and 879 Brown Road North and are owned by John Maresh and George Johnson respectively. These two properties will need to meet the condition prior to being allowed to connect to the sewer.

Gappa Title Director of Public Services Administrator Reviewed:Agenda Section: Administrator's Report Item Description: Crystal Bay Park Irrigation System A recent project was completed to add additional topsoil in Crystal Bay Park. Excess material from construction projects was used for the completion of this project. This area is the site of the old City Hall and Public Works Buildings. There have been problems with the establishment of landscaping trees and shrubs in this area because of lack of a convenient water source. In conjunction with this project to add additional topsoil. City staff was instructed to obtain cost estimates for additional faucets, or an irrigation system to provide for adequate watering of the new turf and landscaping. We have obtained cost estimates for this work. The estimated cost for the installation of an irrigation system to cover the entire area is approximately $8,000 dependant on the available capacity of the existing well. A more reasonable option would be to install three faucets along the edge of the field to allow for easier sprinkling of this area. These would be inground faucets installed in an enclosure flush with the ground surface. The estimated cost for this work from Evergreen Sprinkler Company is $1,500. Evergreen Sprinkler is the contractor installing the golf course irrigation system. The first year of turf establishment is important and may require more sprinkling. After initial turf establishment the amount of sprinkling required should be less, and these additional faucets should be adequate for maintenance of the turf and landscaping. COUNCIL ACTION REQUESTED: Motion to authorize the installation of piping and three additional faucets in Crystal Bay Park by Evergreen Sprinkler Company at a cost of $1,500. i m' REQUEST FOR COUNCIL ACTION ^O' (?

The board is appointed by the County Board of Commissioners and operates independently with assistance by professional staff and legal and engineering consultants. The MCWD includes all cities around Lake Minnetonka and all cities along Minnehaha Creek. The cities under the jurisdiction of the MCWD have recently joined together to address concerns regarding the manner in which the MCWD carries out its responsibilities. Because the MCWD board is appointed by the County Commissioners, the cities are requesting County assistance in the oversight of the MCWD. It is essential that the cities and the MCWD are able to work cooperatn ely in dealing with issues related to wetlands, surface water drainage, and water quality. One ultimate goal of the joint effort of the cities is to get to a point where the working relationship between the cities and the MCWD is such that issues can be cooperatively addressed and resolved. A committee representing the cities in the district has identified specific concerns regarding the manner in which the MCWD carries out its responsibilities, and the effects this has had on the cities in the district. The committee is recommending that the Hennepin County Board of Commissioners take a more active role in monitoring and overseeing the activities of the district, to improve the communication between the district and the affected cities and to address the concerns identified by the committee. The committee is requesting that all cities in the district adopt a resolution setting out the concerns identified, and requesting County assistance in the oversight of the Minnehaha Creek Watershed District. The resolution is attached for Council adoption. COUNCIL ACTION REQUESTED: Motion to adopt a resolution requesting County assistance in the oversight of the Minnehaha Creek Watershed District.

Gaffiron Asst. Planning and Zoning Administrator City of Orono P.O. Box 66 Crystal Bay, MN 55323*0066 Dear Mr. Gaffron: I writing in response to your letter dated July 21,1997, concerning prior notification of lake chemical treatments. The Minnesota Department of Agriculture (MD A) is the lead state agency regarding the reoulation of oesticides in Minnesota. Conunercial pesticide applicators (those applying ce^sticides on a “for hire” basis) are required to obtain licensing from the Miimesota Department rf A « TO legally apply pesticides to surface wares for nui-mce control the applicator must be licensed as an aquatic pest control . obtained from the DNR for application of pesticides to public waters. accord with *e Aquatic Plant Management and Aquatic Nuisance Conhol Rules, 6280). A ^it under this Rule requites the permit holder^' TOs ^ Eive notice of the proposed date of treatment to all persons specified on the penmt Tlus Ltificction must te Reived prior to beginning any work under *' „„ reouirement in the AquaUc Plant Management and Aquatic Nuisance ConMl Rule mere « no State rr .uirement regarding prior notification of pesticide treatment. Noufication of ^ticide ttSmer maTl« Suited as part of me label instructions. If notification requirernents ^ p^ec on L p^uct label it carries me weight of law. Generally, label instrucuons do not include p rior notification. k there any Stale regulation which would prohibit the City from adopting ordinances requiring such notij'cation? • 90 West Plato Boulevird . Sdm Paul. Minn«ou 55107-2094 • (612)297-2200 • TOD(612)297-5353/l-«00-627-3.'29. An equal roportun'ty t«H)*oyef r Minnesota Statutes 18B.02 specifically preempts local ordinances that prohibit or regulate any matter relating to the registration, labeling, distribution, sale, handling, use, application, or disposal of pesticides. It is likely that an ordinance requiring prior notification would fall within the scope of this preemption Is there any State regulation that would prohibit the City from concurrent licensing of chemical application contractors? A City licensing program specific to pesticide applicators would likely fall within the scope of the preemption identiHed in M.S. 18B.02. Does the Department of Agriculture issue individual permits for chemical applications? The MDA issues individual permits for chemigation; the application of fertilizers or pesticides through an irrigation system. The DNR issues Aquatic Plant Management Permits in accord with the Aquatic Plant Management and Aquatic Nuisance Control Rule. An Aquatic Plant Management Permit is required for pesticide treatments to public waters. Can the City undertake to issue such permits if it chooses to regulate to this extent? The issuance of permits for pesticide applications would likely fall within the scope of the preemption identified in M.S. 18B.02. The DNR reserves the authority tor the issuance of Aquatic Plant Management Permits. We understand the concerns as expressed in your letter and would like to work cooperatively with you in addressing those concerns.

PHONE: 471-0768 I ii ■ To;Mayor Jabbour & City Councilmembers Ron Moorse, City Administrator From: Date: Mike Gaffron, Senior Planning Coordinator September 2, 1997 Subject: Orono Ice Arena Landscape Plan - Revisions Approved by Staff Gary Schroeder, Operations Managci for the Ice Arena, submitted a revised tree planting plan that substitutes coniferou> trees for most of tlie hardwoods originally planned for those areas generally within 50' nt the building. They are getting these niatuic pine and spnice trees from the school annex east of Old Crystal Bay Road, where the existing lows of trees need thinning. This will save the Ice Arena approximately $19,000. The coniferous trees will provide some immediate screening adjacent to the building which would likely have taken 5-10 years to develop with the smaller deciduous stock initially proposed. The original plan proposes approximately 12 future additional trees (honeylocust, red maple, red oak) within and around the parking lot area, which will help to soften the view of the parking lot, and will be in keeping with the existing school property trees along the west side of Old Crystal Bay Road. Jack Nuveau of the Ice Arena agreed they would plant these additional trees within the next year. Staff approved this minor change to the landscape/planting plan subject to the additional trees being planted next year and subject to City retaining the right to review the coniferous plantings when completed and require any additional plantings needed. !
