The Applicant was present Mabusth reported that the application was in response to a violation for tree removal and vegetation clearing within the 0-7.*'' /one also involving a violation of a conservation and flowage easement filed against the chain of title of the propeily The property is located within the Stielow addition and the City's wetland maps classilying the wetland as marsh wetland type The applicants are asking for approval of a plan with a new delineation, referred to as area "A" Trees removed in the area "A" were 10 in number and 12 in area "B", the remaining area included under conservation and flowage easement. Mabusth said the City Engineer has reviewed the soil delineation report and concurs with the findings and recommends redefining the area The City Staff has recommended filing a vacation of the original conservation and flowage easement and to be conditioned on the granting of a new easement. Mabusth reviewed the issues and considerations set forth by applicant for the Planning Commission to consider including the applicant's lack of knowledge of the conserv ation area and Stark's agreement to replant evergreen and fruit trees in the 0-75' zone Applicant Stark said he purchased the property in June of 1995 and was not notified of the ea.sement. Stark said he made changes that he felt were appropriate. Selected trees were removed, and it was his intent to replant evergreen trees. The City asked the applicant for a current survey locating the 75' zone and new wetland delineation area along with the legal description. Mabusth said the applicant cooperated with the erosion control efforts. MINUTES OF THE ORONO PLANNING COMMISSION MEETINCi IIEI.D ON NOVEMBER 20, IW5 (#I - #2082 Richard Stark - Continued) Peterson asked it'there were an> problems with soil erosion Mabusth said there were no problems Peterson asked if the plan to restore trees and vegetation was appropriate with Stafl' Mabusth said the plan was to replant 10 trees in the 0-75' zone Stark said his plan was to plant the trees on the sides of the proi>erty and noted there were no evergreens on the property at this time and that he did not propose replantings in areas A or B Hawn inquired about the use ofMn/'DOT 250 grass and asked if it was appropriate to "weed-wack" these natural grasses Stark had told Hawn that sod would give better control Mabusth asked Stark if it was his intent to cut the grass in the wetland area, and Stark said it was his intent to do so Stark said he asked an expert regarding long grass or natural grass' elTort and was told there w as no difference Stark said "weed-wacking" allows for competition of grasses and a fuller growth of the root structure He noted a disadvantage of long grass was its breeding environment for insects who carry diseases such as Lymes Disease Mabusth said the DNR and MCWD would be able to provide answers to these issues Stark addeded that he did not believe there was any regulatory force concerning grass cutting Mabusth reminded Stark ol the City's conservation easements which limits such activity Peterson commented that the City has always encouraged long natural grass in wetland areas and that "weed-wacking" has never been discussed Smith questioned the planting of fruit trees versus native trees She did not feel that this type of tree was in keeping with a wetland area Smith would like to see trees plantings that are consistent with wetland areas Stark responded that the landscape consultant had suggested the type of trees to be planted in view of the large ^M'lpulation of deer Peterson said the Planning Commission has not stipulated in the past what type of trees should be planted but looked more at the mitigation issue Mabusth commented that evergreens are probably not consistent with wetland areas either Smith agreed that it was probably a personal preference issue. Smith asked about another home nearby which had clear cut some trees. Gafffon said that 15-20 trees w ere replanted in the 3"-5" size. The trees were of different varieties. The trees were replaced one for one but not inch for inch. Smith asked if any fine was involved for that application. Gaffron said any fine would have been so small as money would be spent to replace the trees. Lindquist noted that only certain type of trees would grow in wetland areas. Stark said it was his plan to place the trees along the sides of the property and not in the wetland area. r • *1 'T MINI THS OF 1HF ORONO PLANNING ( OMMISSION MEETING HELD ON NO\ EMBER 20, l‘W5 (ii| . «2082 Richard Stark - Continued) Mahusth asked the Commissioners if the trees were replaced in the 0-75’ zone and not in the areas described as "A" or "B" Lindquist was told 10 trees would be planted in 0-75' setback area Undquist saw no problem with area "B" but felt area "A" should have replacement of tree for tree Peterson said that would be consistent with other applications Stark questioned tree replacement under tlie agreement tor the easement Mabusth said there was no direction in the code and has been based on the judgment of Staff Tree removal in 0-75' requires permits issued by Staff Mabusth told Stark if he objected to Planning Commission recommendations to present his position before the Council As far as the easement. Mabusth said the agreement stipulates that no trees can be removed without City approval 1 here were no public comments Smith said she agreed with Lindquist in his request for tree replacement Lindquist said he felt particnilarly strong about tree replacement in area "A" Stark said he strongly objected to placing trees in this area Stark said there are alot of trees on the property It is not his intent to gain a view of the lake At the time, the property was not open to use of the lake Stark noted that the house, itself, was not in view. Mabusth asked Stark how many trees w ere already dead that were removed. Of the 10 trees removed. Stark said probably half of them were dead Hawn commented that a buckthorn was removed, and she was glad to see that particular tree removed Stark said an oak tree was choking it out Peterson received confirmation that the reroofing project completed without a permit was satisfied Lindquist asked Stark if he would agree to the replacement of 5 trees in area "A".

The Applicant was present Mabusth reported that during the sketch plan review the Planning Commission advised the applicant that they could not recommend the 3 lot subdivision due to the lot width and area being inadequate The wode for lakeshore back/front lots require a 200* width at both the lakeshore and 150’ setback The east lot is inadequate in width at street setback into North Brown resulting in the need for a shared driveway There is now an issue of setback variances as the backlot configuration requires 15CW o standard A 45' setback is required from the side lot lines The existing residence is within the required side setback and encroaches 45' into the front setback at 75 ’ The front lot’s building envelope is defined at a 50' setback from the south, west and east lot lines The accessory structure on east lot will be removed by the applicant. The house on the property will probably be moved elsewhere. The pool will be removed when the lots are sold Mabusth said a deadline would have to be set as the code does not allow an accessory structure on lots without a principal structure.

Connie Gray, 819 Brown Road, asked where the two new homes would be built. Mabusth show ed on a map the lot outlines and of building envelopes. The City does not stipulate where a house should be located, other than meeting required setbacks of code Mabusth noted that the home on east lot would be at least 30’ from the side lot line with the Gray property. Peterson commented that the location of the septic systems usually drives where most homes are situated on the lot. Scholl asked and was shown on the map where the septic system for these homes would be placed and the likely home locations.

The D in 'R then met with the Lake Use Committee holding three meetings as well as meeting with the Maxwell Bay Residents Committee The DNR removed the buildings on the pri»pertv and have dealt with the fuel contamination, which has been resolved. Monitoring wells are currently m place. Gaffron reported that the DNR is now prepared to begin constructing the lake access and arc at this meeting to discuss the design, and he noted that Staff has reviewed how the proposal fits into the context of the B-2 zone It is not strictly a commercial use but might be considered an institutional or recreational use. and the B-2 code does not address "public access" specifically The overall hardcover existed at 68% and will be reduced to 52® o The B-2 lakeshore code calls for a 75' setback and is proposed at dO' The code calls for a 75’ buffer It was noted that Gayle’s Marina had hardcover right up to the shoreline The landscaping plan includes tree planting as well as the saving of a number of trees on the property The DNR was asked to plant something larger than their standard I ’’ caliper trees and arc planting l-l/2’’-2’* Diainage will flow through filter strips before entering the lake In regards to the site access issue, traffic will be brought in from the west end at Tonkawa with no traffic accessing from North Shore Drive. A counterclockwise flow of traffic will occur within the site. Peterson said the Lake Use Committee has had more meetings on this public access than any other issue It has involved the public, the Council and the DNR Peterson said he was comfortable with what was being introduced and saw it as a viable plan.

It was noted that children would need to be closely w atched in this and all of the area. Linnell said the drainage for the parking lot splits it in the middle Drainage will flow to a grassed swale, thru two skimmers, to a catch basin, and onto a culvert to Crystal Bay. The other side will have a swale, two skimmers, with a possible sheet flow, and then a berm Linnell reported that there will be 4 handicap parking spots with two ”car only" At least two docks and a pier will be handicap accessible. There will be no curb or gutter along the lake side I he access will be asphalt or bituminous. The turn lane and islands will have concrete gutters and boulders to control the traffic A sign near the entrance will direct car/trailer while still allowing cars to pull away from the launch ramp. Linnell said it was the DNR's intent to preserve the existing trees One tree in particular intended to be saved is a 28" oak. New native trees will be planted and existing evergreen trees and 10-15 deciduous trees will be transplanted. A wildflower and grass vegetation bulTei strip will be planted along the shoreline to provide better filtration from runoff from the parking lot fhere will be some screening, but they did not want to block the view in from the road 165 shrubs and 37 new trees will be planted Killien added that two parking spaces were eliminated to save a hackberry tree on the property.

Engebretson asked if there would be a stop sign at the exit of the access to keep cars from rolling out onto Tonkawa without slopping and was told there would be He further inquired if the residents would be notified if the monitoring wells indicated further contamination He was told the DNR w as working with the MPCA and would notify the residents if any problems w ere found Engebretson asked how big the access was in scale to that of North Arm public access He was informed that there is parking for 65 car/trailers at North Arm. and there would be parking for 80 car/trailcrs at this location Killien noted that this access provided a better layout and traffic flow He noted that the DNR is working with Hennepin County on redesigning North Arm It is the DNR's intent to fix the fishing and shore area, paint the no parking areas, adda raised island in the lot, and create buffer strips to deal with stormwater Engebretson asked whether DNR plans to repair the Boy Scout bridge Peterson said this has not been before the Lake Use Committee Killien said this was not part of the DNR plan. 8 ■irtM iTT MINUTES OF 1 HE ORONO PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING HELD ON NOVEMBER 20, IW5 (#4 - «2085 Minnesota Department of Natural Resources - Continued) Jerr\' Gray asked if the right turn lane would be for parking access only and was told it w'as not for the exclusive use of the access but a continuation of a right lane Gray felt the traffic flow would result in a circus Peterson said the traffic has been discussed in great detail including the right turn lane Gray asked if the plans could be changed if they found this plan does not work Linnell suggested staying in the driv ing lane and turning directly onto Tonkaw a It was said a car can turn right from the center lane but Gray questioned whether the County would consider this to be legal or not Hurr said there would in effect be tw o lanes of traffic onto Tonkaw a There would be 300-400' of stacking area in the turn lane No parking signs have been installed Gray was concerned that the no parking would not be enforced Linnell noted that the three ramps would aid in the traffic flow also. Barry Knight, 425 Tonkawa, was concerned with traffic flow at peak times He asked about the normal traffic for a ramp and was told 25 spaces per ramp is standard Knight was concerned with left turns coming out at dusk He felt if there was parking for 80 cars, and with the traffic configuration pattern, it would want to head both north and south on Tonkawa He saw this as a potential problem during "rush hours" Peterson commented that a boat launch creates less traffic than a marina and less turnover It was noted that Gayle’s Marina originally had 140 slips ’Vith a boat ramp, boaters come early and leave late If Gayle's had no problem with traffic, Peterson said he saw even less here (Jray asked if a traffic count was done at Gay le's but that was unknown Knight said he w as less conv inced than the Planning Commission on the amount of traffic considered to come out of the access area. Linnell said Gayle's Marina also had 2 double access, launch ramps. Knight asked about hardcover and was told the access was designed to standards Knight asked what enforcement would be done of the access traffic and local traffic on Tonkawa in order to maintain the 30-35 mph limit and how this would be dealt w ith in the residential area Peterson said if speed became a problem, the police department would have to enforce the law. Killien said the DNR had made suggestions to the City regarding overflow parking suggesting no parking signs and an ordinance to uphold that He felt the DNR was dealing with this issue up front Killien felt education right from the start was important. Killien said he would not recommend cars towing boats to travel on Tonkawa with the snake-like hills He felt that Tonkawa as a route from the north probably would be used mainly during peak times He said he would check with the County on this. MINUI bS OF 1 Hb ORONO PLANNING COMMISSION MbEI ING llbLD ON NOVEMBER 20, 1005 (j^4 . ^^2085 Minnesota Department of Natural Resources - Continued) Dan Wigen, 3410 North Shore Dri\e (2nd house west of the access), asked if there were plans for an access to Crystal Bay and was told no He asked if people would somehowr be discouraged from doing so He was told there would be no improvement at that area and tratllc will limit pet>ple going across to that area Wigen said people are now parking in the landinu and usinu his dock for fishinu He would like enforcement and education such as signs stipulating private and not public property along that area He also had a concern with traffic and use of private driveways He w as also concerned w ith snowmobilers using the ramp by crossing from C'ly stal Bay Peterson said neither had been discussed but felt the steep banks would discourage snowmobilers and landscaping could also slow them down Killien said the area could be posted for no parking in the winter as the landing would be closed during that time. No other barriers would be installed, however Ken Rolland. 4119 Oak Street, was concerned with traffic and asked if there was a possibility for a traffic stoplight Peterson said this had not been discussed and was a County issue Rolland said he was concerned with eastbound cars with boats making a left turn onto Tonkavva GaffVon thought there was room for perhaps three cars to stack. Killien said there wou!' room for 4 cars with trailers Killien asked Rolland it his concern was with C oKd 51 or Tonkawa Rolland said he was just asking in general, binnell said the County never *'rought up the issue of a stoplight, and south bound Tonkawa w as considered for just tw o lanes He said it could be explored if necessary. Gray asked if the landing was closed in winter if fish houses would be allowed to use the ramp. Killien said the ramp would be posted as closed but not physically barred due to liability. He said the fish houses would need to be dealt with if they became a problem, and DNR has a 48 hour notification process before illegally "parked" fish houses could be removed There would also be no winter maintenance Cars would probably need to be 4-wheel drive to use the ramp A DNR access is normally open 365 days a year but not in this case If there are problems, the DNR will look at options available. He noted that there are only two DNR accesses with gates, both with unusual circumstances. Hurr noted that there would be access at North Arm during the winter. Smith said she liked the idea of an information board rather than signs at diff erent locations Smith also liked the landscaping plan and would like to see one at North Arm. She asked if the lights would be left on or off or on a timer. Killien said the lights were angled and box shaped directed downward and on at all times. There will be three lights on the site.

The improvement consists of two options, option # 1 involves an addition to the south side and option #2, an addition to the east The Staff'memo was said to discuss the setbacks and hardcover foi the property Peterson said there would appear to be no major concern as long as the applicant was able to acquire the alley. Mabusth advised from calls she received, it appeared that the adjacent owners may make claim to the alley Mabusth said she had spoken with Dennis Hill at the County, who said the entire alley would probably be granted to the applicant as ow'ner of lots 2 and 3. Mabusth said she had spoken with 1 lili again after calls had been received from the neighbors, and he advised that the matter may have to be further studied. Hill informed Mabusth if the neighbors pressed for a piece of the allev. these claims mav be raised during a required legal proceeding. Peterson asked if the application w as not one step ahead of itself He asked if Staff was awaiting information on utilities. The City Engineer reported there were no sewer lines encroaching the alley, and there are no power poles. I I MINUTES OI THE ORONO PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING HELD ON NOVEMBER 20, 1995 (^5 - H20SS Winfield Stephens - Continued) Both the current owner, Steve Gardiner, and the new owner, Winfield Stephens, were present Stephens said the vacation \ as suggested to minimize impact of variances with the proposed improvements The vacation had also been recommended by StalT He said the area where the alley is located seems to be part of the lawn, and the entire detached garage is located within the alley Peterson asked if the issue of the vacation was frivolous on the part of the neighbors or not Mabuslh said she had just been made a % ire of their interests Peterson asked the applicant if he was aware that he would need to combine lots 1-4. Stephens said that was not an issue Lindquist asked the applicant if he did not gain the vacation of the alley, if he still wished to proceed, and Stephens advised he did w ish to proceed regardless of the outcome of the alley Peterson said the applicant could not proceed without the 30’ alley as both development plans show garage remaining in alley Option //2, Mabuslh said entailed an issue of impact to the neighbor if the addition w as to the east The Wicklands report an impact on their view s There is no legal claim to the view but option also involves new construction at 3 5' from north side lot line Setbacks and hardcover variance are less intense with the inclusion of the additional area from the vacated alley Peterson asked the applicant what he would prefer Stephens said he preferred option in order to save 2 big oak trees in front yard. Option ti 1 does require the removal of 2 large maples The old owner said the oak trees were beautiful He noted that one of the trees was 7' in circumference and would be a shame to lose it I lawn asked if the addition couldn’t be altered and sit where the diseased maple is located but skirt the oak and save the other maple Stephens said it could but would be within the 50' street setback from County Road, which he thought was more critical. Mabusth said it would be dilTicult to approve an encroached of the 50’ setback. She noted that w e are dealing with limited building envelope Lindquist said he had a problem with 3-1/2’ on the north lot line and then doubling the amount I ne old owner. Steve Gardiner, remarked that this was the way it had always been. Lindquist said although this was true, he could not imagine doubling the area.

Stephens reported on the attorneys who had searched the title and showed Valerius a copy of the easement Peterson said there were other concerns with the garage encroachment and clean up of area to the west Gardiner said a boat had be-m there and rubbish left by previous owner of l.andmark property. Lindquist asked if any improvements involved the tearing down of the garage located on the alleyway Stephens said he had no plans to do so Lindquist said he could not approve any improvements w ith the garage in that location if the vacation was not approved. Berg said it was important to make sure the easement exists She added that she did not feel the Commission could proceed to approve any improvement without the alley v acation. Peterson agreed that this would be an integral part of the application Peterson said he fav ored option ti I and the v acation and asked if the survey (1988) commented on the alley Mabusth said there has been no new construction to require a new survey. Lindquist said the variance should be based on whether or not the vacation is granted. He was not in favor of any furiher encroachment of the west side yard. Smith commented that the addition was very aggressive and could not take a position without a decision on the alleyway. There were no public comments. Gardiner remarked that the connection charge to City sewer was $13,000 and would be a very expensive sewer for a I bedroom house. Gardiner said that is why it should be expanded and noted that the neighbors had expanded. The Wickslands commented that their lot was 1-1/2 acres, and they had to sacrifice a large tree in order to meet building setbacks. Stephens was asked if he planned on living in the house and was told he did.

Mabusth asked if there was a schedule for the remov al of the structure. Neveaux said there w as no definite schedule but tied to the process He was not aw are of the scope of danger He had thought the structures were boarded up and would pass on the information to the applicant Smith asked if there has been any inspection of the property by the applicant or his representative and whether the problem was incidental or anecdotal Neveaux said the applicant had lived there until July of 1995. Smith questioned if the property had been inspected by applicant seen since July or the condition reported to the applicant. Berg said the structure was still there and was surprised that the City would allow it to be there Mabusth said if the structure is boarded and safe, it can be allowed to remain. The goal, in this case, was to remove the structure. Mabusth asked the representativ e if the applicant wanted to gain approval on the subdivision, if he would be willing to remov e all structures including the rental unit Smith asked if this could be done within 60 days. Neveaux said he did not know. Smith asked if this could be done before it is sold.

Hawn said any improv ement would be a benefit but was concerned with tw o substandard lots requiring hardcover and structural variances She said she was willing to kx>k at the application only because of the hidetnis condition of the structures Hawn said she was very concerned with this being adequate grounds for approval and had a serious problem with it. Neveaux said the City and the property owner want the improvement He noted that other proposals have been turned away and considered this a last ditch elTort Neveaux said in site of the numerous v ariances that exists on the property, the outcome would be beneficial He felt the past should be put behind and move forward Neveaux said the wedge of land of Casco/Spring Park was a transitional group of lots He noted that one lot was not economically feasible and out of character w ith the lot and area He felt the proposal blends in with the neighborhood Peterson said that w^s not a concern. He did want the structure to come down and did want the subdivision He felt if there was to be a replat, he recommended 2 lots. Mabusth suggested a possible redesign questioning puting a large house within the smaller envelope She saw no reason to grant a setback variance to lakeshore setback for Lot 1 as the building area could be rearranged to meet the setback Mabusth said the proposal has merit but again was concerned with setbacks and the lack of any real site planning Peterson asked why a larger house on a smaller lot Neveaux said it was only a general plan He said the site and access availability was limited and looked at the aesthetics. It was the applicant's intent to eliminate the setback variance required on lot I but limit the other Mabusth noted the sewer easement along the west line and the utility easement on the line. A shared access was recommended from CoRd 15 The County w as in favor of the shared access also The County saw the Dunwoody access as dangerous. Neveaux said this was fine with Oberhauser He was asked if he was aware of the utility easement. Neveaux said he was but not necessarily to the placement of the easement. Lindquist said he did not conceptually disagree but did not want to see any hardcover in the 0-75' zone He did not wish to see any new construction in this area.

Regular maintenance would be required to keep the pond functioning The site now exists as a flat, wooded, wetland area Mature trees will be removed and replaced with vegetation around the new ponds The MCWD provided "before" and "after" photo representations of the area at the request of the Planning Commission. Gaftron said the City's main concerns are with the construction process. Peterson added there is a concern with hauling of the fill. Gaftron said thousands of yards of fill will be leaving the site to an oft-site location to be determined by the contractor. The access road would be on CoRd 6, east of Tanglewood The excavation and hauling would be done in mid-winter. 1 he sight distance is good at the access location but there is concern about impacting traffic on CoRd 6 Close monitoring of the road conditions w ould be required along with signage and flagmen during construction It was noted that for security reasons, a gate with a combination lock would be provided permanently at the access drive.

Peterson commented and LaBounty confirmed that all three cities’ approval for sediment ponds is required in order that the alum treatment of Long Lake be effective. Smith asked if no aureement was reached in Medina if the MCWD would revert back to W' the plans for a 5 acre pond LaBoumy said that was a pr^ssibility at one time but an agreement has been reached with the Pearces only for a 2.5 acre pond He noted that the MCWD is working hard on reaching a negotiated settlement on the Medina pond Smith reiterated that this meant there would be no change in scope or scale if no agreement was reached in Medina LaBounty said no changes would be made as the signed agreement is in etfect LaBounty review ed the photo depictions of the site. He added that the pond requiring the most sediment removal is the pond nearest to CoRd 6 as it collects the most sands The second pond will collect finer sediments There were no public comments Smith asked if all the points have been addressed to the Staffs satisfaction. Gaffron said this was correct. He added that before the application goes before the Council, a compilation or "punch list" of all the requirements and conditions would be drafted.

He did, howev er, have a concern with the Staff recommendation for condition #I H? noted that since his property is not a back lot, but under back lot standards, item #I would relate to his property and should not be included He was told that item #1, which refers to no more than two residences on one driveway, is a City ordinance and must be part of the conditions. Knight said the deeded access is not exclusive and w ould benefit the division of other lots. If he were to subdivide in the future, which he said he has the right to do, this would affect him, and he should be part of that code Knight was informed that if he should subdivide in the future, the code would need to be applied The parcels in question are not in the MUSA, while Knight's property is within the MUSA. 20 MINUTHS OF THH ORONO PLANNING COMMISSION MFLTIMi IILLDON NOVLMBLR 20, 1W5 (#8 - #2078 Jensen Homes - Continued) Lindquist said he saw Knight’s concern with losing his right to subdivide in the future as the ordinance under item #1 would aftVect his abilit> to be served b\ this easement road Knight agreed that this would adversely atVect his property Lindquist added that even though this was true.

Mabusth reviewed the codes, specifically 10.55 where amendments would be needed, and 10 56 which lists the functional entities that all wetlands provide and should retain. Of the 6 functional qualities listed, Mabusth said there would be no impact on #5, regarding shoreline or bank stabilization, but had no information on #3, regarding fish and wildlife habitat. Mabusth said the issue is that the code discourages having anv prohibition in code 10.55. Mabusth said the City Engineer and DNR had no problem with the proposal as tong as certain standards were met Replacement would be asked for base and bank levels (2.25 acres). The type 2 wetlands should be replaced for wildlife habitat. Mabusth said she saw a problem with other residents of the 7 residential lots in the area asking for the same type of pond The application was being reviewed by the DNR and MCWD Mark Gronberg said he checked with Kristen George, who is awaiting City ’s decision.

Lindquist said he preferred to keep the area as it now is but questioned whether the application could be denied Peterson said he does not like to make changes to wetland areas He did not see the proposal as bad but felt watertbwl would not stay on a small pond area. George Stickney, the current owner, the lot is 380' in width and is a maple forest, he said with the draintile and transitional growth, the area could be opened to maintain the cuirrent wetland area Gronberg commented that agencies are encouraging type I and 2 wetlands.

Pilon said Hennepin County postponed the CoRd 6 project and asked the gas company to do the same. It is possible that a permanent solution could be scheduled for next year but has asked for renewal of 5 year permit instead of asking for a 2-year extension. Pilon said the existing feeder is west of Townline Road, and the low pressure system is east of Townline.

The property in question of 3-1/2 acres is unique according to GalTron. It has not been built on Miller has owned the property since 1972.

The driveway would come from CoRd 6 Septic testing has been done, and a site is available for a 5 bedroom home Gaffron pointed out the likely building site. GalTron questioned if the City does not grant the variances, does the owner have any reasonable use of the property He noted that the assessor has given the property a lower value compared to buildable lots Miller has paid $5,000 in taxes over 20 years. GalTron asked if constructing a residence on this 3-1/2 acres dry buildable (6.5 acre total) lot would change the character of the neighborhood GalTron commented that when the owner bought the property, the property conformed to the code of 1 acre zoning Miller noted he is considering building on or selling the lot, and when the variance is approved, it mav cause the taxes to increase.

Should the bay windows be approved allowing a fuHher encroachment of 3 ’ and should approval be tied to the hardcover. Peterson commented that there was the perception of more encroachment but was not really closer when considenng the ov erhang. GafTron suggested that the bulk of the house was getting closer to the lake, and the proposal did add more structure in the 0-75’ zone. While the overhang was more of an encnvachment, the addition to the bulk requires for need for the variances.

To:Chair Peterson and Orono Planning Commission Members Ron Moorse, City Administrator From:Jeanne A. Mabusth, Building & Zoning Administrator Date:November 14, 1995 Subject: #2082 Richard Stark. 575 Oxford Road - Vacation/Conditional Use PcrmitA^ariance - Public Hearing Application: Applicant and new owner proceeded to remove mature trees within the 0-75’ setback area and in a protected area defined within a Conservation and Flowage Easement filed against the Chain of Title of the property in 1978. Applicant also proceeded to clear cut areas within both the shoreland protected area and conservation area inv olving the removal of brush to permit the planting of a grass lawn. Applicant seeks to vacate the original conservation area and redcdicate a conservation easement over the newly defined wetland. Pertinent Ordinances 1. ■7 Section 10.12 - Vacation of easement. Section 10.56, Subdivision 16 (I) (1 & 2) - Vegetation alteration and clearing within shoreland areas. 3.Section 10.22, Subdivision 3 - Removal of live trees within 0-75’ setback area without necessary approval fix)m City via staff-issued permit. 4. Conservation and Flowage Easement, Exhibit L. violation of easement agreement of 1978 List of Exhibits A/B- Application for Vacation/Conditional Use PermitA^ariance C-1-3 Applicant's Addendum D - Plat Map E - Property Owners’ List F - Drawing of Trees Removed in Lakeshore Yard G - Gustafson Letter 8/8/95 H - I - J - Westwood Report - Weiiand Delineation Staff Letter 8/10/95 Sketch of New Wetland K - Survey of Original Conservation Area L - Conservation and Flowage Easement/Stielow Addition M - Inspection Notice 7/20/95 N - Gustafson Report 11/13/95 O - Designated Wetland Map 1971/72 i Zoning File #2082 November 14, 1995 Page 2 Discussioii On a routine inspection of the Oxford Road neighborhood, the Building Inspector discovered violations as noted above and asked that all work cease until applicant had applied for the necessary approvals from the City. The Zoning staff and Cit\' Engineer met with Mr. Stark at the site to review the specific violations and to review the aica originally designated as a conservation area in the 1978 plat. Review Exhibit L, the City wetlands map of the area dated approximately 1971. The subject wetland was defined as a marsh (MA). After inspecting the lakeshore yard, staff concurred that the original wetland designation may have been overly ambitious. The ^^plicant was advised to have a soil delineation made of the area to determine the exact location of the wetland. Review Exhibits F, H and J, the new wetland area is shown at less than half the area of the original conservation area. The City Engineer has reviewed the Westwood report and confirmed the findings. Applicant was encouraged to file the necessary vacation to allow for the redefining of the wetland area. Review Exhibit F, violations on the propert>' include the removal of trees, approximately ten within the 0-75' setback area, ten within the newly defined wetland area (designated as Area "A") a».d approximately twelve live trees located within the original designated wetland to the east of the newly defined wetland line (designated as Area "B"). Applicant asks the City to allow him to replace the ten trees within the 0-75’ setback area to be planted some time in the spring of 19% and to not require the replanting of trees within the remaining portions of the newly defined wetlands and within the wetland areas to be vacated to the east of the new wetland delineation line (Areas A and B). Statement of Hardships Please refer to Exhibit C-1-3, applicant noted he was never made aware of the existence of the conservation easement at the time of the sale of his property nor did his title company alert him to the existence of the easement. The document is filed on the Chain of Title of the property. He was ignorant of the requirements of the ordinance involving the lakeshore protected area and has agreed to replant the trees removed within the lakeshore protected area but asks that the City not require the replacement of trees within the remaining portions of the disturbed area (A and B). He notes the existence of several mature trees within the yard. He also asks Planning Commission to observe that the marsh-like area within 30-40' of the shoreline has not been disturbed and still retains original marsh-like vegetation. Refer to Exhibits G and N. At the time of the original inspection of the property by staff, the majority of applicant's lakeshore yard was absent of groundcover except for the 40-50' adjacent to the shoreline. Applicant was asked to immediately install erosion control, which Mr. Stark installed immediately. Once the soil delineation report was reviewed and approved by the City, Mr. Stark was Zoning File #2082 November 14,1995 Page 3 asked to restore groundcover per approved plan. The areas east of the neN^ljf defined ^^■etland area were to be sodded to prevent further erosion and the remaining disUirbed wetland area was to be restored with seeding using a wetland seed mixture such as Mn/DOT mixture 250. In order to ensure erosion control until wetland vegetation was restored, applicant was also asked to cover the seeded areas with mulch and disc anchoring it into the soil. Staff completed an inspection of the restored area finding that ever>thing had been completed as recommended bv the Citv Engineer. Sod has been installed o\ er the entire disturbed area located out of the redefined wetland. Disturbed areas within the wetland show signs that specific types of the seed mixture have started to grow. These areas remain covered with mulch. The Engineer asks that a final iaspection be completed in early spring to verify that the wetland seeding is successfully established. Issues for Consideration 1. Applicant has agreed to replant fniit and evergreen trees within the 0-75 ’ setback area where ten trees were removed. Will members require additional plantings? 2. Applicant's addendum confirms no knowledge of the existence of the Conservation and Flowage Easement and of the need to receive City approval before trees or groundcover are removed. Applicant has asked that replanting of trees not be required within tlie newly defined wetland area or in the remainder of the original designated wetland. Refer to Exhibit F, will vou require replacement trees in the area defined as A or B? 3. Other issues raised by the Planning Commission. Vacation - Staff Recommendation Staff recommends approval of the vacation application of Rick Stark involving the property located at 575 Oxford Road that seeks to vacate the original conservation area dedicated in the plat of Stielow Addition approved by the City in 1978 based on the soil delineation report by Jay Riggs, Environmental Specialist, of Westwood Professional Services, Inc. dated July 31, 1995 and on Ac review and approval of the City E.ngineer. Approval of the vacation is subject to applicant executing a new Conservation and Flowage Easement over Ae newly defined wetland area.

I bought the property in June of this year and the seller represented in the purcMse documents that there were no restrictive easements and insurance company failed to find that this essenent Ihus, I had no knowledge of its existence and 2 would like the Coemission's understanding in light of these «i«nFTMsl measesM In addition, X removed soee trees within 75 feet of L^e tfinnetonka without the City's consent, z have only myself to blame for that. Z relied on a nelj^tbor telling me Z could remove trees there and it appeared to have been done by others in the wwld propose to substitute trees for these trees taken in this 75 foot area. My request of the City consists of two Items with respect to my lot: a. A request for a re-dellneation of a wetland based on • recently concluded expert study of the lot and a request for approval of the removal of trees in the wetland area that Is required by a 1978 Easement in favor of the City; and ... 5’ ^ for a variance for the removal of trees shoreline of the lake pursuant to Section10.22 Subd. 3. Each of these requests is described in detail below: Mo*^ollneatlon of wetland and request for approval of removal of In discussing this Issue with the City's inspection department, it was suggested that I hire a wetlands expert to request is a July 31, 1995 report prepared by Westwood Professional Services, Inc. following testing of my lot accordina to published federal wetland standards that have been adopted by^ Minnesota's Wetlazid Conservation Act of 1991, The report 1 S£P.*2r95(THUI 13:36 PRNA TEL:612635Q680 P.005 ’n o - > ooncludM that a larga portion of mf lot la not actually a watland.

This was a saall fraction of tha trees remain on ay property. l astloata that there are 200-300 "y property. The removal of these tan trees did not any drainage problem or in any way change the contour of the land. My lot is covered by a September 20, 1978 "riowage and Conservation Caseaent and Waiver of Damages” entered into between the City and prior developers of my lot and adjoining lots. 2)b) of that Easement states that the City must consent to the resK>val of any trees from my lot. Unfortunately, when I bought my home in June, 1999 the sellers represented that there were no restrictive easesMnts and ®y title insurance company did not pick up the fact that this easement had been recorded whan it Issued my title insurance policy. Therefore, Z was completely unaware that this sgrmmment Z respectfully request that the City consent to the removal of these trees from the wetland area. >«K>val of trees within 75 feet of Lake: I also removed ten trees that were within 75 feet of Lake Minnetonka. All had a diameter greater than six inches. Section 10.22 Subd. 3 states that the City's consent to the removal of trees in this area is required and that such consent will require replacement trass of a sise and nature acceptable to the staff. I have no good excuse for removing these ten trees. I was assured by a neighbor that there were no restrictions and it appeared to me to have been done by others in the area. Z certainly did not believe that Z was doing anything against the City's ordinances, but in retrospect, i should have c*>ecked with the City's staff. Z propose to replace these ten trees with the help of a tree expert, fxnding the best species and locations for these replaced trees. I have been advised that the best procedure for me to follow to determine tha best locations for the trees is to winter when the foliage and uzMlergrowth are gone and then detexeine where to place the trees. Z would propose to plant ten trees next spring after having the locations approved by staff, i would like to plant a SEP.-2r95ITHU) 13:36 Wk TEl:61263S0680 P.004 9 c , *2 coahination of fruit raeonaandatlona of an and avargraaa traaa, aubjact to tha and staff appro^l.

The wetland delineation done by WestwoiVl PfOTessional Services appears correct The upland areas located east of the wetland delineation should be sodded soon to prevent erosion. We would recommend that the wetland area be restored with seeoing using a wetland seed such as Mn/DOT mixture 250. Erosion control in this area should be done by covering the seeded areas with mulch and disc anchoring it into the soil, or by installing silt fence along the shoreline. Please contact me at this office if you have any questions regarding this matter. Yours very truly, BONESTROO, ROSENE, ANDERLIK & ASSOCIATES, INC. 2). Shawn D.

As you requested, I delineated aixl flagged die jurisdictional wetland boundary on your property based on fidd evidence of soils, vegitfation, and hydrology. This report desenbes tfte dassiflcation, charadenstics, and location of the wetland. Wedand Ddiiicatioo Methodology The wetland boundary was delineated and staked in the fidd on July 28, 1995 using the Ftdtral Manual for b^ntijying and Dtlintating Jurisdictional Wetland (Federal Intera^Oficy Committee for Wdland Delineation, 1989) and the Corps of Engineers Wetlands Delineation Manual (Coips of Engineers Environmental l.aboratory, 1987). These manuals are currently followed to ddineate wetlands regulated under the Minnesota Wetland Conservation Act of 1991 and Section 404 of the Federal Clean Water Act, respectivdy. We have found that these manuals often yidd identical wetland boundaries. Background data us^ to identify potential wetland areas before ddineadng wetland boundaries in the fidd indude National Wetlands Inventory (NWI) mapping and the Soil Survey of Hennepin County. Wetlands were dassified according to Wetlands of the United States (US. Fish and Wildlife Service Circular 39; Shaw and Fredine, 1971) and ^^Junds tmd Deepwater Habitats of the United States (FWS/OBS Publication 79/31, Cowardi' al. 1979). The wetland boundaries are estimated on die endosed Wetland Boundary Sketch. NWI mapping shows a portion of Stubbs Bay and an emergent wetland fringe within the western ec^ of the pared. Our review of the Soil Survey of Hennepin County and the list of Hydnc Soils ofMinrtesota (1990) si^gests hydric soils exist adjacent to the bay, indudir^ Hamd loam and Marsh. Mapped upland soils indude Hayden loam (6 to 18 percent slopes). Wetland Description The western portion of the site contains a partially deared Palustrine emergent, saturated/seasonally flooded/forested broad-leaf dedduous, saturated (PEMB/C/FOIB, Type 2/3/6 Wet Meadmv, Shallow Marsh, Wooded Swamp^ wetland frii^e adjacent to Stubbs Bay. Ten pin flags were placed: o delineate the edge of this wetland. The wetland fringe is dominated by green ash, reed canary grass, broad-l^af cattail, black willow, and willow shrubs. As your landscaper noted, trees renfioved from the parcel consisted of boxelder and a couple blade willow; he was unable to indicate the location or spedes of any of the deared understory vegetation. The transition to upland generally follows a topographical i .se and vegetation in the adjacent, non^sturbed area is dominated by common burdock, grape vine, black raspberry, Virginia creeper, common buckthorn, and northern bedstraw. tkiiwun Proiei Senmet m em euBJi Mr. Rtck St£ V July 31.1995 Paffi 2 A senes of soil borings were drilled to deiennine the jurisditaional w«bnd in the disturbed area. locations oftheee soil bonr^ are shown on the attached Welland Boundary Sketch and descnbed below • Motde Abundance: F - Few (< 2%).

Boa 66 Crystal Bay, MN 55323-0066 August 10, 1995 Mr. Rick Stark 575 Oxford Road Long Lake, Minnesota 55356 Dear Mr. Stark: I have enclosed a copy of Shawn Gustafson’s report as promised. Gustafson advises of the need to restore ground cover as soon as possible. The newly defined wetland area should be restored with seeding using the wetland seed such as Mn/DOT mixture 250. The remainder of the area may be restored with a seed of your choice. Gustafson specifically asks that erosion control be maintained in the dismrbed area by covering the seeded areas with mulch and disc anchoring it into the soU. Another option would be installation of a silt fence alon<» the shoreline. Please contact my office if you have any questions concerning tlie engineer’s recommendation or if you have anv further questions concerning the preparation for your variance and conditional use permit application. We would like to reinspect the lakeshore yard as soon as seeding and erosion controls are completed. Sincerely, Jeanne A. Mabusth Building «fe Zoning Administrator JAM/ch Enc.

Platteter Subdivision Proposal, Dickey Lake (27-161W), City of Orono, Hennepin County Dear Ms. Kabusth: We have reviewed the site plans (received August 18, 1995) for the above—referenced subdivision at 809 North Brown Road (Cxty 1^2053, Section 27, T118N, R23W) and have the following comments to offer: 1.Dickey Lake (27-161W) is on the property. Any activity below the ordinary high water (OHW) elevation of 986.82' (NGVD, 1929), which alters the course, current or cross-section of Dickey Lake, is under the jurisdiction of the DNR and may require a DNR permit. The applicant and plans should inform prospective lot buyers that the DNR, Army Corps of Engineers Minnehaha Creek Watershed District and the City Minnetrista have jurisdiction over Dickey Lake. 2.Dickey Lake has a 100-year floodplain. The Minnehaha Creek Watershed District should be consulted to ensure that each of the lots will having a building site that is above the 100- year floodplain elevation of Dickey Lake. All the work that is done on these lots must comply with applicable floodplain regulations of both the city and the Minnehaha Creek Watershed District. 3.Dickey Lake has a shoreland classification of Natural Environment. The shoreland district of Dickey Lake extends 1000 feet from the OHW. The proposed lots must be consistent with City shoreland management regulations. In particular: a.Each lot must have a building site and, if they are unsewered, sites for two on-site septic systems, that are located outside of the 150* setback from the OHW of Dickey Lake. b.Lotbuyers should be encouraged to screen future structures from view from Dickey Lake using topography, existing vegetation, color, and other means approved by AN EQUAL OPPORTUNITY EMPLOYER I th« city. Ms. Jeanne A. Mabusth August 21, 1995 Page 2 4. The following comments are general and apply to the proposed development of all lots: a. Appropriate erosion control measures should be taken during the construction period. Minnesota Pollution Control Agency guidelines, or their equivalent, should be followed. b. If construction involves dewatering in excess of 10,000 gallons per day or 1 million gallons per year, the contractor will need to obtain a DNR appropriations permit. It typically takes approximately 60 days to process the permit application. C. The comments in this letter address DNR - Division of Haters jurisdictional matters and concerns. These comments should not be construed as DNR support or lack thereof for a particular project. Thank you for the opportunity to comment. Please contact me at 772-7910 should you have any questions regarding these comments.

NOTE:While the DNR technically is exempt from complying with local zoning ordinances, the DNR has involved the City and the public in a review process that has taken place over the last three years. This public information meeting and plan review is being held at the request of the DNR to allow the public the opportunity to review the plan and provide input on the access construction and landscaping plans prior to City final approval. The de% elopment of this public water access plan was based upon discussions the MnDNR has had with area residents, the Orono Lake Use Committee and City stalf. The DNR has incorporated numerous design elements and changes into the plan which were a direct result of these meetings. The public water access construction plan is based on a compilation of the City and area residents’ input and DNR design requirements.

September 6, 1994 Selected Lake Use Committee Meeting Minutes M - Letter from Attorney General's Office re: Exemption Background Summary Pursuant to their goal of providing public access to Lake Minnetonka, in October 1991 the ''•nnesota Department of Natural Resources (DNR) obtained an option to purchase the 1.5 acre 'Straley property" east of Lakeside Marina for dev'elopment of a public access. On January 6, 1992. the Orono City Council held a public hearing to review the DNR’s proposal for development of the Straley site. The Straley location met with significant resistance from both the City and its residents. On Januaiy 21, 1992. the DNR held a public informational meeting and open house, and suggested a second proposal in which DNR agreed to delay purchase of the Straley site while investigating purchase of Gayles Marina, Lakeside Marina and/or properties between them as a better alternative for an access site, which the City generally supported. Later in 1992 the DNR completed purchase of the Straley site and tq;)plied for LCMR funding in order to pursue the possible acquisition of Gayles Marina and adjacent properties. In November 1992, the Orono Planning Commission held a public information meeting for review of the conceptual site plan for the Gayles site. The Orono Lake Use Committee held three meetings in February and March 1993, resulting in the March 31, 1993 letter to the DNR (Exhibit L-2) indicating the Lake Use Committee's comments and concerns regarding the concept plan. A Maxwell Bay Residents' Committee also submitted comments to the DNR and to the City early in April 1993. These comments were reviewed at a meeting between the DNR and Lake Use Committee on April 14, 1993. During the remainder of 1993 and into 1994, the DNR obtained LCMR funding and pursued acquisition of the Gayles Marina site and adjacent properties. In September 1994, the DNR submitted a revised site plan and a letter of response to the City's 1993 comments and concerns. The Lake Use Committee subsequently met with the DNR in November 1994 and again in January 1995. Zoning File #2085 November 17,1995 Page 3 Having acquired the Gayles site and the Crystal Bay Service site in 1994, the DNR proceeded v\ith resolving fuel contamination issues at those sites, and in 1995 acquired the Dunn and Sprague properties to the east In the fall of 1995, buildings uerc removed from the acquired properties. On October 6, 1995, the Lake Use Committee met with the DNR to review the status of the project as well as continue discussions on site planning issues, resulting in the current "preliminary site plan" being submitted for Cit}' and public comment prior to expected commencement of construction in the spring of 1996. Zoning Issues While the DNR is not subject to local zoning ordinances, the DNR has worked closely with the City on site design, in order to create an access that is functional yet remaining sensitive to the natural environment as well as the residential nature of surrounding areas. The site has been zoned for commercial use since 1957, although that portion on the south side of North Shore Drive is zoned residential. Less than 1% of the City's land area, and only 2.2% of Orono’s Lake Minnetonka shoreline, is zoned for commercial uses. The remainder is zoned for single family residential use. During the reviewr process to date, the DNR was requested by the Lake Use Committee to be especially sensitive to specific City concerns in the redevelopment of this site: Minimiyatinn of hardcover. While the Gayles Marina and Crystal Bay Service sites were almost totally covered with hard surface, the adjacent residential lots were relatively low in hardcover. Overall, existing hardcover in the 0-75’ zone was 67.9%, where the B-2 zoning standards allow no hardcover. In the 75-250' zone, overall pre-existing hardcover was 66.1%, where the standard is 25%. The DNR proposal would reduce 0-75’ hardcover from 67.9% to 23.5%, while resulting in a slight increase from 66.1% to 69.7% in the 75-250 zone. Including both zones, total site hardcover decreases from 66.8% to 52.6%. f .nkp«;hnre setback. The B-2 zoning standards require 75’ setback for structures as well as hardcover. The intent is to create a 75’ "buffer zone’’ at the lakeshore. The westerly 70% of the site for many years has had virtually no buffer, with gravel parking e.xtended virtually »o the shoreline. The proposal results in parking lot setbacks ranging from 40-70’ or more from the shoreline, with grass buffer strips proposed for treatment of parking lot runoff before it reaches the lake. These buffer areas also provide a location for sigmflcant landscaping to occur.I 1 Zoning File #2085 November 17, 1995 Page 4 l.andscape plan. The B-2 standards require development of a landscape plan that provides not only for an aesthetically pleasing appearance but also provides a natural buffer and screening from adjacent users. The proposed landscape plan will result in the saving of a number of existing mature trees on the site, planting significant numbers of new trees on the site, as well as substantial shrubbery and wildflower/prairie planting areas. The proposed landscape areas exceed the B-2 code requirements for a 10' side yard landscape area, 10' along County Road 51. and 25-30’ lakeshore landscape area. Per the B-2 requirements, the parking area is intended to be curbed or otherwise provided with physical barriers to eliminate the encroachment of vehicles onto the landscape areas. Except for parking areas and designated walking paths, all groundcover in landscape areas is proposed to be living materials. Additional issues related to the B-2 District standards have been addressed, including: Site access. The B-2 Code requires that vehicle access points through the perimeter landscaping areas be limited in width. The ramp area comprises appro.ximately 75' in width or about 10% of the 700’+ length of shoreline along the parking area. Further, access from adjacent roadways is limited to the separated entrance and exit located along Tonkawa Road, with no access to the more heavily traveled North Shore Drive. A westbound/northbound right turn lane along North Shore Drive will allow stacking of vehicles out of the normal driving lanes durmg peak use periods. However, interior stacking capability is quite significant given the lineal nature of the site. Note that DNR has been working with Hennepin County regarding development of the turn lane and regarding the entranre/exit locations. Sanitary facilities. Although the B-2 standards require sanitary facilities connected to public sewer, DNR is proposing the seasonal installation of portable toilets, with suitable screening. This would appear to be appropriate from the transient-type use of the site and the need for minimal maintenance and to minimize security issues. Lighting. B-2 standards require that lighting on the premises be shielded so that no direct glare can be seen from adjoining residences, from the lake or from the roadway. Lighting is proposed only at the ramp area and at the exit/entrance area, and will be directed downward to meet City requirements. Hours of operation. The B-2 standards limit retail sales and service for a normal marina to the hours of 7:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m. The Code does not address suitable hours for a public access, but this has been a topic for Zoning File #2085 November 17, 1995 Page 5 discussion during the rexiew process. The City has discussed the appropriateness of setting official "closed" hours for the access site, but has reached no specific conclusion. Also discussed has been the vvinter use of this access, with the City preferring it be closed. Trash and gn^h.^ge control. The B-2 standards require the provision of garbage cans or dumpsters on the site. DNR is proposing to not provide such containers, since their experience has been that if no trash containers are provided, users will cany out their trash; but when cans are provided, they attract nuisance garbage as well as that from users of the access. nrainage. The B-2 standards require that drainage plans be developed and implemented to manage the expected quantity of runoff and enhance its quality prior to discharge to the lake. The DNR is proposing natural grass sheet flow areas. All site drainage must flow prior to discharge to the lake. Additionally, each sheet flow absorption/filtration area will be provided with a skimmer to collect floating debris from the runoff. Additional Issues (Addressed or to be Addressed) In addition to the items noted above, in March, 1993 the City noted these additional concerns: • Traffic flow on the site should be designated as one-way. The proposal is for a one-way counterclockwise flow pattern, with the southerly Tonkawa Road curb cut being the entrance and the northerly curb cut being the exit. This maximizes the sight distance for car-trailers leaving the site. . The mouth of the ramp backup apron will be striped to discourage "short- circuiting". . The three ramp lanes are proposed to be striped, although the Orono Police have suggested that while striping provides drivers with a guide for backing, it also can result in potential user conflicts. . The City proposed that the southerly row of parking spaces be back-in car- trailer parking only, similar to what is used at the North Arm Landing. The DNR has not implemented this suggestion for a number of reasons including: traffic flow, user backing capabilities, etc. The DNR has widened the lane between the parking blocks to 30' from its original 25’ proposal. Zoning File #2085 November 17, 1995 Page 6 In addition to the proposed right turn stacking lane westbound on North Shore Drive/northbound on Tonkawa, it is intended that the existing bypass lane on eastbound North Shore Drive just west of Tonkawa be expanded and extended to allow for continuous traffic flow should stacking occur in the eastbound driving lane. Note that no accommodation has been made for stacking in southbound Tonkawa, and while the City expects low volumes of car trailer traffic from southbound Tonkawa, this actual usage pattern will need to be monitored. The City has purposely assigned a North Shore Drive address to the access to discourage the use of Tonkawa Road as a route to the access fix)m the north. Car-trailer parking has been eliminated on County Roads 51 and 135. While this has forced car-trailer parking onto certain nearby neighborhood streets in the interim, it is expected that the 80 car-trailer spaces provided at this access will eliminate most of the local on-street car-trailer parking. The Lake Use Committee suggested that DNR give special attention to the number and size of trees and shrubs to be placed on the site, with the intent to provide a finished natural landscape as soon as possible. DNR has significantly exceeded their normal standards for plantings in addressing this concern. Regarding the fishing pier, DNR proposes a bituminous path from the northwesterly parking area to the pier, generally paralleling the shoreline. It is proposed that the existing cyclone fence be eliminated, and that where the pathway is adjacent to Tonkawa Road, a railing along the pathway be installed. The Lake Use Committee initially expressed concern about this safety aspect as well as whether shore fishing would be limited to specific areas to avoid e.xcessive pedestrian traffic negatively impacting the grass buffer areas. The Lake Use Committee and the DNR consider this to be a boat launching facility and not a park. Therefore, picnic tables and benches will not be provided. 15 car only parking spaces are provided near the fishing pier area for fisherman, canoeists or boaters using cartop carriers, etc. The site will be posted "No Swimming". Additionally, the DNR proposes an information board sufficient to eliminate the clutter of individual signage. There has been discussion regarding the use of a "milfoil bin" near the ramp, which DNR suggests may attract trash. Milfoil control is an issue that needs to be further addressed. Zoning File #2085 November 17,1995 Page 7 The DNR has provided a separate •'make readj- dock” awdy from the ramp area as well as a boat beaching area, to assist in traffic flow at the ramp. DNR proposes to do shoreline stabilization where necessary on the site. The DNH has been proactive in dealing with Aicl conUmination cleanup at the site as well as dealing appropriately with existing wells, foundation removal, sewer line capping, etc. The City has expressed concern as to the impact of this site on the neighboring marinas. Note that the proposed access ramp will be approximately 200* west of Lakeside Marina’s ramp area, therefore minimizing boat traffic conflicts. The final issue addressed during previous reviews is operation and maintenance of the site. DNR will be responsible for maintenance of this site, although there is the possibility of an agreement with the County for certain maintenance aspects. Note that it is the goal of the City that the Maxwell Bay Access will relieve pressure on the North Arm Access and potentially eliminate the amount of time spent by Orono Police on traffic control during peak use periods. The City has also expressed concern that winter use of the site is not intended, is potentially risky with the location near the channel and adjacent marina which may "bubble" all wdnter. Items for Consideration 1.Have all concerns of the public and Planning Commission regarding this access been suitablv addressed? 2.Are there specific issues which the DNR should address before presenting this proposal to the Citv Council for final approval on December 11? 3.Are there specific site plan concerns in regard to any of the following major topics discussed above: Off-site traffic accommodation. On-site traffic accommodation. Landscaping. Stormwater control. Fishing pier. Amenities. Operation and maintenance. Other. Zoning File #2085 November 17,1995 Page 8 Staff RecoBBfiidatioB Given the DNR's exemption from local zoning requirements but in light of their spirit of cooperation on this project over the past three years, a recommendation for approval would be appropriate. Plaimin r Commission should identify any specific concerns that should be addressed by the DNR prior to the December 11 Council meeting. Similarly, since this is a public information meeting, any comments by members of the public should be forwrarded to the Council.

Lafj>cne Road Si Paul. MinncNou 55155-40. October 26, 1995 Mr. Mike Gaffron Zoning Administrator City of Orono P.O. Box 66 Crystal Bay, MN 55323 RE: Maxwell Bay Zoning Commission Review Application Mr. Gaffron: The MNDNR is submitting the plans for the development of a Public Water Access at 3390 North Shore Drive within the City of Orono. The project involves the conversion of five parcels from their existing uses to a Public Water Access Site. This conversion involves the demolition of all of the existing structures. Oversight of the cleanup of fuel contaminated soils, sealing of wells and sewers, and a general site cleanup. The new site will include three launch ramps, four ADA accessible docks, an accessible pathway and fishing pier, portable toilets and screening, parking for boaters and fishing pier users, shoreline improvements, storm water management, landscaping and other amenities. We are hopeful that the site review will help the City staff and members of the public to understand the project and assist us in this access site development. Sincerely, Lawrence M.

CITY OF ORONO I, Jamie Bosma, of the City of Orono, Hennepin County, Minnesota, do hereby certify that a Notice of Public Hearing concerning the matter of #2085, was mailed to the attached list of property owners. In Witness Whereof, I have hereunto set my hand and seal this 6th day of November, 1995. Jamie Bosma T) CITY OF ORONO NOTICE PUBLIC INFORMATION MEETING MAXWELL BAY PUBLIC WATER ACCESS The Orono Planning Commission will hold a plan review and public information meeting on Monday November 20, 1995 at 8:00 p.m. in the Council Chambers at 2780 Kelley Paricway on the matter of application #2085, the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources’ request for a Commercial Site Plan Review for the construction of the Maxwell Bay Public Water Access. The access construction will begin in the Spring of 19% on the site of the former Gayle’s Marina and adjoining properties. The site is at 3390 North Shore Drive in the northeast quadrant of the intersection of Countv Roads 51 and 135. This public information .necting and plan review is being held at the request of the MNDNR to allow the public the oppo.tunity to review the plan and provide input on the access construction and landscaping plans, prior to City final approval. The development of this public water access plan is based upon discussions that the MNDNR has had with Area residents, the Orono Lake Use Committee and City staff. These meetings have taken place over the last three years. The MNDNR has incorporated numerous design elements and changes into the plan which were a direct result of these meetings. The Public Water Access construction plan is based on a compilation of the City and area residents input and the MNDNR design requirements. The MNDNR, though not required to receive any local permits or approvals, looks forward to the review process as a positive step in the continuation of the development of this Public Water Access. All persons wishing to review the plans of the Public Water Access site are welcome to attend aiKl will be offered the opportunity to offer constructive commenls on the construction plans. Written comments will be acce|«ed through 4:30 p.m. November 20, 1995. A copy of the site plan is available for public review in the City Offices. City of Orono By : Planning Commission Michael P.

'3: S BS HHS irS- SLf-SrrlS place in a joint meeting on January 16, 1S»2 of the City, the LKCD, th LHLOA and the DSH. Proposal #2 consists of the following actions; zv.r^.i ?Tor‘to st„.x the feasibility of purchasing and developing the Gayle a the Lakeside Marina site, and residential property located between the two marinas in addition to the property Included In is undertaken. Uses of this larger area may Include a combination of a public access, shore fishing, fishing pier, o^n space and uses deemed aprr opr late by the cooperators in the study. If decided feasible, the cooperators will Jointly support and obtain funding from the LCKR, Metropolitan Council, the Minnehaha Creek Watershed District and other sources deemed appropriate. Difi aggrees to postpone development of the Proposal #1 site until this cooperative effort is completed or is determined infeasible. ^ ^ . . A task force is established consisting of all implement the public access- siting process as called for la the LMCD plan for management of Lake Minnetonka. The task force will proceed immediately to meet the plan's objectives. Proposal #2 addresses the following concerns: 1) Proposal #1 represents a responsive, rather than * This would be an addition to traffic associated with three marinas, i tt. lorth Ar. Access sits, end resldeots o£ tta area. 3) Soft density in the vicinity of the sarlnas, Hanwell Bay, and on Lake Klnsetocka in general. 4) Concerns over the compatibllty of the access In Proposal #1 with the zoning ordinance and standards of the Cit/ of Orono. Rationale and Benefits of Proposal #2: 1) Vill be a cooperative effort allowing all the parties to have influence on the outcoaw. while ensuring progress towards Inproving public access to Lake Hinnetonka. 2) Kay possibly result in aeeting Zone 1 parking goals called for in the 1563 Lake Hinnetonka Task Force Report and the 1551 LKCD plan. 3> Kay result in creation of a multi-purpose site providing several forsB of public recreation. 4) Vill allow for developsent coi^Tatible with the land use goals expressed by the City and LKCD. 5) Creates a aechanisa to address the concerns mentioned above. It is suggested that the LKCD lead and provide the framework for completion of Parts 2 and 3 of this proposal. This is consistent with the LKCD’s role as coordinator of public access issues described in the LKCD management plan. It is further suggested that the task force proposed in Part 3 consist of all communities, whether they have adopted the plan or not, the DFR, the LHLOA, Hennepin County, and all other parties Identified as having a role in the LKCD plan. It is hoped this proposal will begin the process of cooperative, successful efforts to reach the goals for providing reliable public access to Lake Hinnetonka, while meeting the needs and concerns of the communities and citizens of the Lake Hinnetonka area.

This mav result in the need for a mid-site crossover to acccmLiiOdatw auto o > m traffic. 2. Two curb cuts should be developed, the most southerly desigMted "Entrance Onlv" and the most northerly "Exit Only". The purpose of is to increase exiting sight distance for car-traUer traffic leavmg the site. Consider a barrier (or striping) across the mouth of the ramp backup waiting area to eiimiiiate short circuiting. 4 We’ve received mixed reviews regarding striping the three ramp lanes and the use of make-ready docks within the ramp. Please give us some background regarding the ramp width, striping of ramp lanes versus not stripin-, your e.xperience with the use of docks between the ramp lanes, and generally a shon overview of how you e.xpect this ramp to ftmeuon. 5 Given a positive e.xperience with back-in car-traUer parking partially on orass at North Arm Landing, we would suggest strongly that the southwest foop be omined. and this area as well as the remamder of the south row be re-^<^led for car-trailer back-in parking with surmountable swale and^s for traders; also consider widening these parking spaces (but may still end up with additional total spaces!). This should also reduce hardcover... We fe-1 that the lane between the middle and southerly parking blocks shouWbe widened if possible, especially to help accomot^te ^ar- trailer parking. The proposal shows approximately 25 ; could it be widened up to 40? n Off site - We have real concerns about how this project may affect traffic flows “■ area would expect DNR to work with Hennepin County ^ City to develop a suiiable plan to address them.

Box 66 Crystal Bay, Minnesota 55323-0066 Re; Ma.\well Bay Access Site Hennepin County \ 1995 Dear Mr. Gaflfon; This is in response to the request of Larry Killien for a letter from me regarding buildiof projects conducted for or on behalf of the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources, an agency of the State of Minnesota, within a governmental subdivision. It is the position of the Department and of this office that the State of Minnesota is not subject to local codes or ordinances except where the Legislature has specifically authorized a local governmental entity to regulate state government activity. This applies whether or not the state is acting directly or through a contractor. As far as I am able to discern, the ordinances o the City of Orono relative to the proposed project by the Department are not applicable. Please see Minn. Stat. § 394.24. subd. 3. In spite of the above-described situation, I know that the Department generally tries to work cooperatively with municipalities to address their respective concerns and needs as construction projects progress. I hope that this information is helpful to you. If you or your city attorney wish to discuss this matter further, please feel free to contract me at 296-0696. ._JSi5^;.jruly yours, BRUC e)a .

Building & Zoning Administrator DATE:November 15, 1995 SUBJECT: #2088 Winfield Stephens, 3770 Ba>-side Road - Vacation/Variances Public Hearing Application: Applicant seeks to vacate 30' alley at the west lot line of the property. Acquisition of the alley area will improve building envelope and setback needs. Applicant seeks setback variances for two options of rede%elopment of the property. The improvements involve two story additions either to the east or the south side of the residence at an approximate 25’x31.6* footprint. Zoning District: LP.-IA Lot area = 15,717 s.f. or .36 acres.

The applicant has been advised by Dennis Hill of Hennepin County that the entire 30 ’ wide alley would revert back entirely to the fee owner of Lots 2 and 3. Underlying fee ownership of the alley at the time of the Ottoville plat did not include the property to the immediate west (properties located within the Bayside Landing plat). Refer to Exhibit N, the City Engineer has reviewed the area of the alley to determine if any municipal sewer lines encroach the unimproved right-of-way. The Stubbs Bay sewer project did not make use of the unimproved alley. The vacation will be referred to utility companies that serve the area to determine if utility easements would be required although there were no signs of power poles within the vacated alley area. Staff Recommendation Staff recommends approval of the proposed vacation of 30' alley subject to applicant filing for the legal combination of the 30' alley with the homestead parcels upon the filing of the vacation resolution with Hennepin County. Setback Variances Applicant has presented two options for major improvements to the existing 1 ‘/a story residence. The addition consists of an approximate two story 25'x31l4' addition with a two story bay at Zoning File #2088 November 15, 1995 Page 4 8'xl5’. Applicant has submitted floor plans and elevations of Option I's development plan. Applicant notes that floor plans and elevations for Option 2 are similar to those presented for Option 1. Both plans would meet the requirements of the structural coverage ordinance without inclusion of the area of the vacated alley (with alley proposed at 9.1%, without the alley 12.1%). With the inclusion of the vacated area, there are no hardcover variances proposed with either Options 1 or 2. Acquisition of the additional area within the 250-500’ setback area has had a major impact on the hardcover percentages, refer to tactuai review above. Both options will not require side street or street setback variances. Option 1 requires a 1' side yard variance and a 6' or 12% rear yard (existing is 6' or 12%). Option 2 will require a 26.55’ or 88.5% side setback variance, review E.xhibit L. Note the entire addition is located within a required side yard setback. Review Exhibits G and L. e\ en with the acquisition of the alley area, the building envelopes are severely limited. In comparing both options of development, the majority of Option I’s improvements are located within the kgal building envelope. The majority of the improvements for Option 2 are located outside of the legal building envelope. Refer to Exhibits F and K, applicant notes that with Option 2’s plan, the mature oaks will be saved within the south street yard. Staff has located two mature maple trees located within the east side yard which would be removed wdth Option 2. Staff met with the Wicklunds to discuss the variance application and the potential impact on their lake view? of their newly constructed residence. Members may remember that the Wicklunds were required to meet all required setbacks with their new construction. A 50’ setback was maintained from their south lot line, refer to Exhibit O. Mr. Stephens has met with Mrs. Wicklund and provided her with information on his plans for development. The 30’+ addition to the east (Option 2) would have a major impact they feel on their lake views. Their home was designed specifically at an angle to capture that view. The structure would be located approximately 63’ from their residence. Wicklunds noted they are very happy to see the proposed improvement of the property and ask the City to consider Option 1 as opposed to Option 2. The Wicklunds also noted that the two mature maple trees would be lost with the addition to the east. Wicklunds will submit a written statement setting forth their position. During the review of the Wicklund variance application, the issue was raised as to whether the owner of the subject property had legal access via the driveway easement along the north lot line of the property. It is not certain as to whether the current owner, Mr. Gardner, has claimed his rights via a prescriptive easement through years of use. Applicant may request use Zoning File #2088 November 15, 1995 Page 5 of access at Landmark Drive that will abut property as soon as vacation is finalized. The applicant may have some knowledge as to the status of the driveway easement. Issues for Consideration 1. 2. Is the proposal too ambitious for this size property ? . . . Review factual findings above. Property owners to the immediate north (Craig and Renee Wicklund) have no legal claim to lake views as we are not dealing with lakeshore lots. How shall we address their concerns? 3. Which option best satisfies the standards of the City's municipal zoning code? . . . Which option will Planning Commission recommend for approval to the City Council? Any recommendation '*f approval must include the condition that Lots 1, 2, 3, 4 and the vacated alley be legally wombined before a building permit is issued for the new construction. o PROPERTY LOCATION Site Address S *1 “’v O ^ fi': >. j. - : < ^ fC; ' T>pe of Application to be Filed Property Identification Number (P.i.D.) o S ^ ^ i qioi ^oiq >-.4-'^ ^*^3 X. / I ^APPLICANT iy ^ Name Address 2 3>5“ Phone (home) Phone (work)'YSy-iicti firv- Zip SrSS-9.

It Is my understanding that 15% of the square footage may be used for building structure purposes. The allowable area for structure Is 2358 sq.ft, based on the surveyed total of 15717 sq. ft. My request would not exceed 1913 sq-’The requests for variances arise because of this irregular, triangular shaped lot and the location of the old home built only 4’ from the north property line. This 1/2 acre lot is configured so that it is difficult to meet the present 2 acre standards. I would like to propose two options for expansion to the existing home. Option 1 would extend to the south and Option 2 to the east. Both scenarios would have simillar floor plans and elevations as those presented. Option 1 almost satisfies the 30’ setback from the north by 2’. However, by expanding this direction, two beautiful mature oak trees (2.5 ’ diameter) would have to be removed. Option 2, or east expansion would enable the trees to be saved but this addition would follow the same line as the old house and not comply within the 30’ setback. Option 2 allows for a better factual finding hardcover area. Option 2, as seen in the photograph would not restrict views from the neighbor to the north. His floor plan is such that all windows are located on the east end of the residence. Both options are not located in the 0 to 75 ’ area and both would remain outside the 50 ’ setback from the north line of the highway easement. Both options would mean that the west boundary setback would remain at 20’, however I have requested a variance for vacation of the alley ( a 30’ wide strip to the west) and was told by Dennis Hill at Hennepin County that this parcel would be attached to Lots 2 and 3. Therefore, both options would met the west line requirements as well as improve the hardcover requirements. My preference is for Option 2 as I would prefer to save the oaksand it would be better for the hardcover requirements.

J, \ a Gardiner Vacation File No. 139-1958 Dear Jeanne, We have reviewed the proposed alley vacation at 3770 Baysidc Road for Steven Gardiner. There does not appear to be any reason for the City to retain the 30-foot wide alley and we would recommend the vacation. We have the following comments in regards to engineering matters. Mr. Gardiner’s property presently exists as four separate lots. The vacated alley will represent a fifth parcel. We would recommend that a replat be done at this time to combine all of the parceb into one lot.

Gustafson, P.E. 2335 West Highway 36 ■ St. Paul, MN 55113 ■ 612-636-4600 I63SM % MEMO Date:! 1/15/95To: Orono Citv Planner <0 From: Craig Widdund RE: Win Stephens Addition 37 70 Bayside Road We do appreciate that Mr. Stephens wants to improve the property at 3770 Bayside Road. However, we prefer the proposed option 1 because we feel it would have less impact on our property. Option 2 would greatly change the view from the front of our home. Option 2 has proposed to build 3 1/2 to 4 feet from the line which is the front of our home. The N.E. comer of this new addition would sit approximately 25 feet from our driveway. Due to the elevation of the lot, the back of the new home would be 2 1/2 stories high in the N.E. comer. Which faces our front lot line. We would mu; h prefer that the end of the new home adjoin our front line as proposed in option 1. This would not extend the 3 1/2 feet setback that is already there. Last spring we applied for a variance to be 26 feet from our front line. We wanted our home to be on a higher elevation of the lot. We were denied that variance and had to comply with the 50 foot setback. In doing so, we adjusted the angle or position of our home to face more of our front lot line than our original proposal. With the construction of option 2 the front of our home would be looking at the back of the 2 1/2 story home. In light of the alley that is to become part of this parcel, we feel the construction should be done as per option 1. The alley allows reasonable setback to the west line. We welcome improvement on property and feel that option 1 is the reasonable plan. TO:Chair Peterson and Orono Planning Commission Members Ron Moorse, City Administrator FROM: Jeanne A.

Section 10.03, Subd. 14 (C) - Review of structural coverage. Lot 1 Total lot area = 16,500 s.f. Allowed = 2,475 s.f. or 15% Proposed = 2,570 s.f. or 15.6% Variance = 85 s.f. or .6% Lot 2 Total lot area = 20,000 s.f. Allowed = 3,000 s.f. or 15% Proposed = 2,120 s.f. or 10.6% List of Exhibits A - Application B - Addendum C - Plat Map D - Property Owners List El-3 - Hardcover Inventory Lot 1 FI-3 - Hardcover Inventory Lot 2 G - Existing Plan H - Hennepin County DOT Letter 11/14/95 I - Gustafson Report 11/13/95 J - Sewer As-Built K - Water As-Built L - Sanna/Withers Letter 11/6/95 M - Sanna/Withers Letter to Oberhauser N - N.Babatz Note Received 11/13/95 O - Current Plan of Replat P - Optional Plan Designating Shared Access at County Road 15 Q - Staff Sketch for Adjusted Lot Line with Shared Access r=:-i'rT x—..T I Zoning File #1958 November 16, 1995 Page 4 Status of Application #1958 The ^)plicant’s original subdivision application was presented to the Planning Commission at their August 19, 1994. The application was tabled as applicant was not present for the review. After the meeting the applicant advised staff that he wanted to add a request for hardcover variances for proposed redevelopment of the property. Applicant failed to proceed with the review of the 1994 subdivision application and has now filed an amended subdivision application that now includes hardcover and setback variances as noted above in the factual findings. Review of Amended Plan Access Review Exhibits H and I, both the City Engineer and Hennepin DOT recommend the shared access to both properties from County Road 15 finding the access to Lot 2 at Dunwoody too close to the intersection with potential for "erratic" and "unsafe weave movements". Proposed lot line can be moved to the west so that the shared curb cut and drive can be placed along the internal lot line (review Exhibit Q). This will also result in major reductions of hardcover in the driveway areas now proposed at 1,750 s.f. in Lot 1 and 2,100 s.f. in Lot 2. The access as shown on Exhibit P in an earlier review was approved by the County meeting adequate separation setback from intersection of Dunwoody and County Road 15 and with the access drive to the County shop area on North side of road, refer to Exhibit C. The County also asks that the most western access be removed at the same time the garage and retaining wail that encroaches the right-of-way of County Road 15. The County report asks for 7 of additional right-of-way dedication for the County Road. The City Engineer in his report. Exhibit 1, asks for 9’ dedication. T dedication would be consistent with a plat approved by *e City in 1982 (Navarro). Shoreline Drive is classified as a collector road in the City ’s comprehensive plan. Collector roads require only a 66’ right-of-way dedication. The dedication of the additional 7 would have a significant impact on the area of Lot 1. It would be consistent for the City to deny the County ’s request for the 7’ of right-of- way as it has in current subdivision reviews where City ’s classification of road right-of-way dedications conflict with the County. The applicant will be responsible for obtaining a Hennepin County permit for the removal of the western drive, garage and retaining wall. Grading/Drainage/Floodplain Review E.xhibits I and O, the floodplain elevation is located close to the shoreline and will not have an impact on fiittire building sites. The City Engineer notes in his repoM hat the sewer line is approximately 8-9’ in depth and will not allow full basements without ci,anging the site significantly with fill. The City has not been provided detail on the proposed new buildings. Zoning File #1958 November 16, 1995 Page 5 Based on the restricted or limited building envelopes the City may have to prohibit the installation of full basements. Applicant should be adrised that filling of over 100 cubic yards of fill in the preparation of a building pad would require a conditional use permit. Applicant should also be advised that height regulations are based on e.xisting elevations and not on fmal elevations. The City Engineer asks that utility easements be dedicated over the existing municipal lines that encroach the property along the west lot line, refer to E.xhibit A. The City will ask for a 20* utility easement Variances The applicant seeks approval of a lakeshore setback variance for the proposed residence on Lot 1. The structure is shown as encroaching the lakeshore setback line by 6'. Hardcover reductions are shown on both lots, 23.03% for Lot 1 and 3.5% for Lot 2. There will be further reductions when driveway areas are reduced with the shared access plan. Applicant also proposes retaining certain existing hardcover improvements within the 0-75' setback area. Review Exhibits FI and O, 124 s.f or 2.19% existing hardcover shall remain within Lot 2's lakeshore yard. Structural coverage for Lot 1 is proposed at 15.6% and 10.6% for Lot 2. Applicant should be advised that all accessory structures and decks with railing will be included within structural coverage. Note plans do not show future deck. Issues for Consideration 1. 2. 3. 4. Will members approve lakeshore setback variance for the new construction on Lot 1? Will you approve hardcover variances within the 75-250* setback area based on overall reduction or will new construction be limited to 2,838 s.f. or 25% for Lot 1 and 3,220 s.f or 25% for Lot 2. Can railroad tie structure within 0-75 ’ setback area on proposed Lot 2 be removed? The smaller of the lots, Lot 1, is shown at 2,570 s.f structural improvements and the larger lot is shown at 2,120 s.f of structural improvements. Why is applicant proposing a larger residence for the smaller lot? Will members approve a structural coverage variance? Zoning File #1958 November 16, 1995 Page 6 5.Applicant's plans of improvement do not show deck which are normally to the lake side of residence. Is City to grant variances for future decks? . . . Applicant should discuss this issue. Site Conditions Review Exhibits L and N, letters from adjacent residents elated over the proposed removal of the boarded up structures and maintenance of yard arex The City receives calls from local residents and nonresidents concerning the condition of this property. The property has existed in this current run down condition for over ten years. The applicant sold his residence this past summer (refer to E.xhibit C). A condition of that sale was the removal or demolition of the structures by September of this year. This is a private matter and does not involve the Citv. The existing structures encroach the new shared lot line. Should the structures be removed before the granting of final plat approval? If not removed by final plat approval, it will be necessary to have applicant execute a developer’s agreement and post a letter of credit to cover 150% of the cost of the demolition and removal of the stnictures on the property. Prior to the application being scheduled before the Council for preliminary approval, the applicant should provide a written statement concerning his intentions concerning the removal of the structures. Review Exhibit B, the applicant has advised that he will be out of town on the 20th of November. He has authorized Jack L. Neveaux, an attoraev and partner of Mr. Oberhauser’s law firm, to represent applicant's interest at the meeting. Recommendation To approve the lot line rearrangement of the properties located at 2405 Dunwoody Avenue and 3865/3877 Shoreline Drive, subject to the following conditions: 1. 2. Applicant shall be responsible for the demolition and removal of existing structures prior to final plat approval. If Planning Commission does not adopt this condition, applicant will be expected to execute a developer’s agreement and post a letter of credit to 150% of the cost of the demolition and removal of structures to be submitted with final plat submittals. The demolition permit must be obtained from the City of Orono for the removal of residence structures and detached garage. Applicant shall apply for a permit from the Hennepin County DOT for all work conducted within the right-of-way of the County Road. This will include the creation of the permanent shared access drive at the County Road. Zoning File #1958 November 16, 1995 Page 7 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. Upon an application for building permits for the redevelopment of Lots 1 and 2, future owners shall be responsible for providing detailed grading and drainage plans to be reviewed by the City Engineer. Future owners are placed on notice that the filling in excess of 100 cubic yards in the preparation of building pads will require approval of a conditional use permit by the City of Orono. Access to Lots 1 and 2 shall be via a shared access located approximately 100' from the centerline of the intersection of Dunwoody Avenue and County Road 15. The existing western access shall be removed along with retaining wall located within County right-of-way. Preliminary plat drawing to be amended along with hardcover facts to reflect shared drive and realignment of shared lot line prior to application being scheduled before the Council. Dedication of a 20’ utility easement over the municipal line that encroaches the property along the lake and west lot sides. Dedication of drainage and utility easements along exterior lot lines and 5' along shared lot line. Drainage and utility easements need not be shown along lakeshore. Planning Commission recommendations concerning variances requested by application: A. Hardcover variances within 75-250 ’ setback area for proposed Lots 1 and 2. B.Hardcover variances for Lot 1 within 0-75’ setback area and for existing hardcover improvements within Lot 2. C. Lakeshore setback variance for new construction on proposed Lot 1. D. Structural coverage variance for proposed Lot 1. 9. Applicant to provide confirmation that former wells on site have been legally abandoned. 10. Other conditions suggested by Plaiming Commission.

Building and Zoning Administramr Citv’ of Orono Post Office Box 66 Crystal Bay, Minnesota 55323 Rc: Louis Oberhauser Rcplai File No. 139-1958 Dear Jeanne, Wc have reviewed the proposed replat to combine four existing units into two lots on the property owned by Louis Oberhauser in Lots 1 and 2, Block 8. Townsitc of Langdon Park. Two option.^ have been submitted to the Citj’ for consideration. The first ha.s a separate access to each lot. Lot 1 onto County Road No. 15 and Lot 2 onto Dunwoody Avenue. The second option has a shared driveway access onto County Road No. 15. The propert)' presently has two gravel driveways out to C.R. 15. The proposed access (center of property) would be acceptable for a shared driveway if the westerly access is eliminated as proposed. The proposed access out to Dunwoody Avenue is not desirable due to its close proximity to the intersection with C.R. 15. Either option has some beneficial aspects, however, wc would recommend the shared driveway option if approved by Hennepin County. An e.xisting sanitary’ sewer cros.ses through the property, westerly along the lake and northerly along the west lot line (see record plan sheet .A126). The sewer is approximately 8 to 9 feet in depth which will not allow a full basemen: without changing the site significantly. The existing sewer should be shown on the certificate of sun’cy. Water service is as'ailable along the south side of Countv Road No. 15. The right-of-way for C.R. 15 is presently 66 feet wide. We would recommend that an additional 9 feet right-of-way be provided as par: of the rcplat. Drainage and utility easements should be prorided 5 feet wide along all lot lines and 10 feet wide along the roadway right-of-ways. Existing Ctfiscmcnt.s for the sewer line should either be .shown on the certificate of survey or rededicated. Please contact me at this office if you have any questions regarding this matter.

Box 66 Crystal Bay, MN 55323 Dear Jeanne; My spouse and I purchased the property at 2425 Dunwoody Avenue on July 1,1995. In our purchase agreement with Mr. Louis Oberhauser, the seller of the property, there was a clause. ‘Seller agrees to demolish neighboring houses by September 30. 1995." That agreement is 37 days past due as of today, November 6, 1995. We have contacted Mr. Oberhauser by certified mail asking him to comply with the agreement and mailed copies to our realtor Jill Lawrence-Brown as well as his realtor Nancy Curry. We are circulating a petition /or signatures in our neighborhood. Many of the people who live on Dunwoody Avenue and Casco Point are concerned with the potential danger of the unsafe structures northwest of 2425 Dunwoody Avenue. We strongly urge the Orono City Council not to entertain any subdivision of the lots northwest of 2425 Dunwoody Avenue until you have escrowed monies for the removal of the unsafe structures on those lots.

Pearce Property, 1485 6th Avenue North - VariancesConditional Use Permit - Continuation of Public Hearing ~ Zoning District: LR-IA. Sii.Je Fair.ily Lakeshore Residential, 2 acres. Application: Request for variances and conditional use permit to construct 2.5 acre wet detention basin/wetland. The purpose of the project is to remove sediments and nutrients (principally phosphorus) from the major creek flowing into Long Lake from the north. Note: This item was tabled at Planning Commission's September meeting.

Applicant ’s letter of November 13th addresses certain issues raised by the City including: - Restoration of vegetation, considering the loss of a number of mature trees in the area to be excavated (see photo renditions as well as Exhibit F4 which has been updated to include an emergent vegetation planting schedule) - Installation of an access gate with a common lock - Pond maintenance Zoning File #205^ November 15, 1995 Page 2 Included in this packet are the comments submitted by the property owner, William Pes^e, at the September 18th meeting, as well as a copy of the settlement agreement. Additionally enclosed is a copy of the DNR permit issued in late September. Construction plan E.\hibits F3, F4, F5 and F7, have been slightly revised since the September packet. F3 and F4 now include the planting schedule. Note that in F4 and F5, the two basins of the Orono pond are separated by a peninsula rather than an island as noted previously. F7 contains additional detail regarding the gate proposed for the access road. Issues for Consideration Please again review the memo of September 15th (Exhibit G) which reviews the variances and conditional use permit required, discusses shoreland ordinance permit review guidelines, reviews the City Engineer's comments, discusses health, safety and welfare issues specifically dunng the construction process, and defines a list of items for Planning Commission review and consideration. Finally, note that while MCWD is pursuing legal action against the City of Medina due to their refusal to issue the necessary permits, MCWD remains optimistic that the Medina pond will be constructed this winter. Therefore, it is critical to address the safety issues regarding spoU disposal for that project, which may require extensive truck traffic at the County Road 6/Tamarack Drive intersection. Options for Action 1. Recommend approval with specific conditions. 2. Recommend approval, directing staff to develop appropriate conditions. 3. Table, specifying what additional information or review process is appropriate. 4. Recommend denial, stating specific reasons. 5.Other.

MN 55323 November 13, 1995 Dear Mike, Thank you for meeting with me last week to discuss the vegetation restoration plan for the Orono site of the Long Lake Improvement Project. As we discussed, the project involves removal of vegetation along a portion of the creek that flows through the Pearce property. The district has reviewed the city’s ordinance on vegetation removal along shorelines. The Long Lake Improvement Project includes water quality and revegetation in this area which we feel satisfies the areas outlined in the city’s ordinance. The before and after photos of the site suggest what the area will look like when new vegetation and plantings become established. The District is committed through a number measures, to ensure that this vegetation is maintained. The District recommends and supports having a common lock to the access gate located off County Road 6 for emergency and maintenance purposes. Keys v,ould be held by the watershed district and il'.e City of Orono. The maintenance schedule for the Pearce pond will be the responsibility of the watershed district. The District's intentions rje to reach an agreement with the City of Orono to perform this maintenance as part of a cooperative agreement. The frequency of cleaning and maintaining these ponds is greatly dependent upon the best management practices of the up stream municipalities. Sincerely, Thomas W.

NIINXrrES OF THE ORONO PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING HELD ON SEPTEMBER 18, 1995 - #2059 Minnehaha Creek Watershed District - Continued) Peterson inouired about long term maintenance. LaBounty said fi^^barrier If agreements ‘ Long Lake has already entered into an agreement regarding a fish barner. It no agreement is made ^^^th Medina or Orono, the MCWD would handle the maintenance. Lindquist asked how often cleaning out of the sediment would occur.

Syverson sdd the Orono project is r--cell Jhe first cell would catch the most sediment and need to be cleaned out m • larger cell would require less fi-equeat cleaning projected at 15-^0 years. e ® is dependent upon the management practices upstream. Hwy U consmicnon w^ ci« ™pie. If silt fencing wVe not done on the ponds there, more matenal would faU into th * ponds requiring frequent cleaning. Sy\erson said the management is cooperative effort. Lindquist inquired about the Dickey Lake arei Syverson noted this y = * '"'J' ohosphotus loading area and the cost would not justify a pond. It was noted that the wetlMd area on thf east end of Long Lake where there are streams wor^ as a deten'ion pond. This area was noted to setve as a natural stormwater management pood as the water comes out of this area quite clean. Schroeder inquired about mno6Ffrom roads such as H- yU. L^ounty said this does exist but they try to make up for it with projeas such as the pond. Peterson asked for public comments. Bill Pearce, joint owner of the subject property, along with his attorney, Greg f the Dorsey L> were in attendance and asked to presem a s^ry Ihe Sent agreement between Pearce and the MCWR Fontatne sard Pe^ce b«^ involved when the plans for the pond were announced.

The size the detention system on the Pearce property was then reduced which was a substantial improvement. Pearce said he understood the need for the detention pond on his prope^, Luld prefer it was not necessary, and was generaUy supportive, and still is, of the project. Fontaine said there have been design specifications and si^cant ^thout consultation with Pearce. He cited an example with changes to the fi* bmer upstream ftom Long Lake. LaBounty later noted the net efifect of the change in the bLier would not affect the outcome. ME mT jTES of the ORONO planning CONCS-flSSION MEETING HELD ON SEPTEMBER 18. 1995 (#5 - #2059 Minnehaha Creek Watershed District - Continued) Pearce felt it would be to the City's interest to include conditions in the a^eement between Orono and the MCWT). A summary of these condiuons were ^ Commission members. The conditions are intended to reduce the vfrvvT> be restorative of the area. Fontaine said there has been difficulty wth the MC complying with timely notice to Pearce wiffi regards to revision ot o^ ^ pan thru on design elements. He believes it is in the best interest or t e -_/?„p]ain the of their review an artist's rendition of the area showing the revegetation, expl^n he differences between the specifications and what the MCWD is doing, on is necessary for the MCWD to spell out the maintenance requirements with who g what, w^paying, and on what schedule. Specific recommendanons were given m the handout for such maintenance. Schroeder commented that the project was complicated and asked jL has bora due to the project. Pearce indicated engineenns costs have ran $85,000. and the easement will only trover about $20,000. Schroeder noted that the report will have a positive influence on the project It wtu flso hjs bebet ^ TOeting is required for the Commission to look over the findings, especially in baht of the time and cost consideration Pearce has given to the project. LaBotinty said the project began in 1988. It was originally proposed w totally P'»“ in Medina, then was changed to two ponds in Long Lake, then changiM to include the Pearce pond and DeerhiU, and now to include Long Lake, Medina, and Orono. The phosphLs reduction amounts have remained the same. LaBotinty potmrt out d no agreement can be acquired on the DeerhiU Road pond, the projert would be back to a 5- acre pond on the Pearce property.

Ptterson moved, Schroeder seconded, to table the application. Fontaine noted that LaBounty has only recently taken over the project for the MCWD and has done a good job with communicating with Pearce.

His comments of September 13th are summarized as follows; 1 A haul route and disposal location map. construction phasing schedule, and a traffic Ltrol plan must be submined to the City for approval pnor to commencmg with the work. Written construction schedule must be updated or modified as necessaiy to accurately reflect the rate and progress on the project. A preconstruction conference should be held with the MCWD. contractor. City. County and other parties involved in the project. Traffic control for the project should include a minimum of traffic control signs and devices conforming to the MMUTCW, flag men, a street sweeper, a saiidmg truck and a bobcat. The equipment will be necessary because it will impossible to remove mud from Ures before leaving the site. The MCWD should be responsible for cleaning die surface of any becomes soiled due to ±e construction activities on this project.

Mabusth, Building & Zoning Administrator November 13, 1995 SUBJECT: #2078 Jensen Homes, Inc., 405 Tonkawa Road, Class II Preliminary Subdivision - Continuation of Public Hearing Application: The application was tabled at the October meeting of the Planning Commission providing applicant additional time to consult with adjacent property owners concerning their request to acquire additional right-of-way for a future improved road at the southwest comer of the property. Applicant was also asked to confirm area of easement serving the Knight property located at 425 Tonkawa Road. The code will require that area of easement driveways be e.xcluded from the dry buildable area of proposed Lot 2. List of Exhibits A - Gusuifson Report 10/10/95 B - Hennepin County DOT Report 10/17/95 C - Gronberg Letter Concerning Area of Driveway Easement and Adjusted Lot Area for Proposed Lot 2 D - Easement Serving Knight Property (425 Tonkawa) E - Backlot/Frontlot Ordinance F - Weekman Report 10/24/95 G - Preliminary Plat Discussion Staff has met with Jim Jensen and applicant's attorney concerning status of easement driveway and impact of proposed subdivision. Applicant stated at the meeting that Bennetts are not creating a backlot with this division as the backlot was created years ago at the time of the creation of the driveway easement, refer to Exhibit D (10/15/58). The original code amendment specifically states that lots created prior to January I, 1994 will not be subject to recuirements of this code section. The easement mav remain as an easement as the subdivision regulations do not require the platting of an outlot with this 2 lot division. The Knight property at 425 Tonkawa will continue to have access to a public road to the south and is per code not a backlot. The easement is described at a 30’ width. The area of the easement has been deducted from the total lot area proposed as follows: Zoning File #2078 November 13, 1995 Page 2 Easemeni area * .43 acres Total area of proposed Lot 2 * 3.5 xrcs Adjusted lot area * 3.07 sKres Required * 1 acre. The future ou-ner of Lot 2 shall be advised that if property is located wthin the MUSA and is further subdivided per the 1 acre zoning standards, the City may consider asking for future extension of public roads from south. Lot 2 is currently subdivided based on rural standards. Review Exhibit B, Hennepin County has reviewed the two lot proposal and will not seek an additional dedication of right-of-way on County Road 135 (Tonkawa Road). The County will deny a third curb cut. Access to Lot 2 must be via the existing driveway easement at the southeast comer of proposed Lot 2. Lot 1 will continue to achieve access via the existii^ curb cut. Any alterations or upgrades of these curb cuts must be approved by Hennepin County via a permit. Staff Recommendation Staff recommends approval of the Class 11 subdivision application of Jensen Homes Inc. involving the Frank Bennett property located at 405 Tonkawa Road finding all standards of the on-site septic code. LR-UVLR-IB zoning districts and pertinent sections of the subdivision regulations have been satisfied. Approval is subject to the following conditions. 1. No more than two residential units can be served by the e.xisting easement drive. 2. 3. 4. 5. Access to Lot 1 shall be via an existing curb cut at the County Road. Access to Lot 2 shall be via the existing private driveway at the southeast comer of Lot 2. Tennis court located within Lot 2 that encroaches the lot line shall be removed before building permit is issued for new construction on either Lots 1 or 2. Septic site must be staked and protected prior to the removal or demolition of the termis court.

P E lee M. Marm. PE Chanel A EncKson Leo M. Paweftky Han«i M. Otson Agnes M tmg James f Engetiardt Dear Jeanne, We have reviewed the subdivision proposed by Jensen Homes, Inc. of the property at 315 Tonkawa Road owned by Mr & Mrs. Frank Bennett. Tlie proposed subdivision will create one new building site on the 10.69 acre parcel. The property presently lies outside of the MUSA boundary. The subdivision appears acceptable from an engineering standpoint and we would recommend approval contingent on the following criteria; 1. The subdivision should be done by plat to adequately describe easements that should be granted to the City as follows: 5-foot wide drainage and utility easements along all lot lines. a 10-foot wide drainage and utility easement along the Tonkawa Road right-of-way (ROW). Hennepin County should review the subdivision to determine if additional ROW is needed for Tonkawa Road (C.R. 135), a minimum of 42 feet for the west half of the road is recommended. a drainage easement over the drainageway crossing the parcel. 2. Primary and alternate septic sites should be shown for both lots. (Note: There is an existing 9-inch PVC sanitary sewer line along the west side of Tonkawa Road that could serve these properties if the MUSA line ever is expanded. 3. An outlet should be platted for the existing gravel driveway. Lot 2 should have access to Tonkawa Road by making it a shared driveway. We do not recommend a new access onto an arterial roadway such as Tonkawa Road, unless there is no other feasible alternative to provide access to a property. Also, a new driveway would cross the existing drainageway, requiring a culvert, tree clearing and regrading of the area.

The deck is located immediately above a concrete patio. The reconstruction also involves the replacement the steps attached to the deck. The deck is approximately 347 s.f. and the steps at 54 s.f. The structiu^ will meet all required setbacks and will be located out of the 0-75' setback area. The propert>' is located adjacent to a 25’ fire lane to the west. Excessive hardcover improvements exist in the 75-250’ setback area at 87.3%. History of Property In November of 1968, a former owner received approval of area and width variances to allow the construction of a residence. In 1972, additional variances were granted to the owner allowing for a 0 line setback to the side lot line adjacent to the fire lane for the installation of a septic system in the lakeshore yard. The residence structure was built sometime in 1972. The City has no record of the permit. The deck structure was built either in 1972 or sometime after 1972. In 1986, the current owners received approval of a conditional use permit and variances that allowed the restoration of existing timber walls, repair of the access stairs and installation of new timber walls in lakeshore yard and adjacent to residence. The timber walls installed within the lakeshore yard were to allow for case and safety in mowing the steep banks of the lakeshore yard. The existing deck and stairs have been confirmed by the Building Inspector as in need of immediate repair. The applicant proposes complete reconstruction of deck and stair structure. Statement of Hardship 1. Review Exhibit B, the property receives excessive runoff from Long Lake Boidevard during heavy rain and a majority of runoff pools in the grassed, flatter elevations at shoreline. Zoning File #2083 November 10, 1995 Page 3 2.The majority of hardcover fiom stairs and timber walls within the 0-75’ area was approved by the City' in 1986. Note stairs have been installed at a 4' allowed width and would be allowed on a property with steep elevations leading to lake. 3. The deck is unsafe and in need of repair or replacement. 4. There is already a concrete patio beneath the deck. 5. The deck will have no impact on the lake views of adjacent residences. Issues for Consideration 1.Stairs and timber walls v.ere approved by the City in 1986 to allow for safe access to the shoreline and for use and maintenance of the steeply sloped yard. Can the plastic underliners not approved in 1986 application installed beneath the rocked areas be removed without danger of erosion? 2. Can existing hardcover improvements be reduced in the 75-250' setback area? A.400 s.f to the east side of the residence consisting of concrete patio block and rock with plastic.

Budding & Zoning Office of this change prior to the meeting. 8 October 17, 1995 Orono City Council; We have been seeking a permit to replace an existing deck on onr house at 1535 Long Lake Bivd. (Lot «19) Our intent is to rebuild the deck exactly as it is now, but apparently there are some issues with the amount of total hard cover on our property. We would like to provide some insight 'r-. »y help you understand our situation better, since much of the issue seems to be about w ater run-otf. Our house is located on a hill, but we do not have run-off from our lot. The only time we've seen any water from run-off is vvhen we have had a 4-5’* ram in a short amount of time — and even then, is sits on the lawn at the bottom of the hill. There is run-otT, however, from Long Lake Blvd. This should be on record with the City of Orono because we have called on it at least three times (but to date no action has been taken). All of the water from the east end of the neighborhood runs down Long Lake Blvd. and down our driveway...bringing with it gravel from neighbors' driveways which we then have to remove from the bottom of our driveway. Even when neighbors on the east end wash then cars we gel the water down our driveway. All of this w ater runs into the right-of-way (owned by Orono) between our lot and lot #18. If there's a problem with run-off. that’s where it is. It has created a deep gully. Our wish to rebuild our deck will not change this run-off situation — nor would removing any hard cover from our property. In fact, if we remove any of the hard cover from our property, it could create a bigger run-off problem -- by washing our hill into the lake. Our deck — which was there when we bought the house — is no longer safe. And we fear that obstruction to rebuild will result in someone's injury. We ask that you take these special circumstances into consideration and allow us to rebuild the deck as is. Thank vou.

This neighborhood was developed in the late 1950's/early 1960's, and the lots average 100 in width, ranging from one-half to one acre in area. The 30' required side setbacks of the two acre LR-1A zone result in most of the existing homes being non-confomung. smee they were built typically with 10' side setbacks when the zoning allowed that to occur. The proposed attached garage/guest bedroom wing will at its closest point be 10' from the north side lot line where the existing house is slightly over 14' from the lot line. The addition is perpendicular to the house and therefore not parallel to the lot line, since all of the houses in Utis neighborhood are slightly angled to take advantage c " lake views. Applicant correctly notes that a detached garage could be located as near a> .0' to the side lot line, although that would not be in keeping with the neighborhood. This proposal will eliminate the last remaining detached garage in the neighborhood. Zoning File #2084 November 13, 1995 Page 3 The garage/bedroom addition will be done concurrently with interior remodeling of the bedroom end of the house. While the 26 ’ x 43' addition could technically be relocated to meet the 30' side setback requirements, it would not be in keeping with the layout of the existing house. The 18' X 24' sunroom addition takes the place of an existing slightly larger deck on the lakeside of the house. This addition will not encroach past the average lakeshore setback line, is approximately 150’ from the lakeshore, but is proposed to be located 27 from the south side lot line where a 30’ setback would normally be required. A variance for the sunroom could be avoided by reducing its width from 24 to 21’, or by sliding it northward, although this would encroach upon the pool patio area and an existing window opening. Hardcover Hardcover in the 75-250 ’ zone will increase from a conforming level of 23.9% to 26.7%, or approximately 350 s.f over the limit. Although the degree of variance is minor, it is a direct result of the gara£'v Mid bedroom addition, and is the typical increase in 75-250 hardcover that we see when converting from detached to attached garages on lakeshore lots. However, in this case the increase is minimized due to the angle of the 250 ’ setback line, with the addition requiring the least amount of driveway in the 75-250 ’ zone to serve it. The removal of the detached garage is a positive improvement to the property, and it can be argued that the addition is certainly in keeping with the surrounding neighborhood. Dependent on Sewer Applicant correctly notes that this neighborhood has requested municipal sewer, and is one of ten areas the City will be requesting for inclusion within tl.e MUSA this wdnter. It is feasible that sewers could be constructed on Bay Ridge in 1996, although that decision has not been made by the City Council. Therefore, any approval recommendation by the Planning Commission must be conditioned on sewer becoming a reality, since, as applicant notes, the existing septic tanks and drainfield are directly under the proposed garage and new driveway. Issues for Discussion 1.Can the sunroom be relocated or decreased in size to eliminate the 3’ side setback variance? 2. Is the proposed garage/guest bedroom addition in the most appropriate location given the constraints of the existing house layout, orientation, and lot width? Zoning File #2084 November 13, 1995 Page 4 3. Will granting of the vririances have a negative or positive impact on the neighborhood? 4. Is Planning Commission comfortable in granting approval subject to installation of municipal sewer in the future, which is potentially likely but not yet a ccrtamty? Stair Recommendation Please review the applicant's letter of request. Exhibit B. If Planning Commission concludes that the side setback variances and hardcover variance can be supported by adequate justifications and findings of hardship, those findings should be included in any reconunendation for approval. Options for Action 1.Recommend approval as presented, specifying justifications and findings of hardship, and conditioned on municipal sewer installation. 2. Recommend partial approval (specify). 3. Recommend denial, stating reasons for denial. 4. Table for further information. 5.Other.

Box 66 Cry'staJ Bay. MN 55323 Dear Ms. Mabusth: My wife and I recently purchased the home and property at 1473 Bay Ridge Road. We have lived in Webber Hills in Orono for 23 years and all of our children have gone through Orono schools. The Bay Ridge home is the smallest of the eight homes in the neighborhood and is the only home with a detached garage. Originally, many of the homes had detached garages. We respectfully request minor variances in side setbacks and in hardcover to accommodate additions to the home. The side setbacks for our proposed additions are generously consistent with the side setbacks of our immediate neighbors for their homes to the corresponding property lines. Please find enclosed signed approvals from these two adjacent neighbors for the proposed side setbacks and the specific proposed work. This request is consistent with the additions and setbacks on ail of the other properties in the neighborhood and would probably still result in this still being the smallest home in the area. Our proposed expansion to the east (lakeside; will be well behind the line connecting the points, closest to the lake, of the two adjacent properties as noted on the survey. The requested variances are: 1. Fast sun room addition Side setback of 27 feet measured perpendicularly from the nearest comer of the sun room addition to the south property line. 2. West attached garage/guest bedroom addition Side setback of 10 feet measured perpendicularly from the nearest comer of the garage to the north property line. 3. Hardcover Hardcover variance in the “75-200 foot zone ” from 25.0% to 26.7%. If the actual water area of the pool is deleted from the calculation, since there is obviously no runoff from this area, the proposed percentage reduces to 22.8% and therefore no variance would be needed. Ms. Jeanne Mabusth, City of Orono Pace 2 i. ' •*>/I j / ■—■ • *.» As noted by Orono building officials, side setbacks of 30 feet (2-acre category) are fairly unrealistic for 100-foot-wide lots. .A hardship is created by the configuration of the lot in that it is quite long (± 500 feet) and narrow (100 feet) and all of the homes are oriented on a bias to the side property lines to generally parallel the lakeshore. Almost every home in this neighborhood has expanded over the years and are much closer to the side property lines titan the current 30 foot restriction. We are extremely desirous of an attached garage due to: 1. Security reasons, especially for situations when a person comes home alone at night. 2. E.xireme inconvenience during Minnesota winters with a detached garage which is a significant distant from the residence. 3. The existing garage is too small and was damaged by a tornado at one time and is in need of repair. The bedroom/garage addition is proposed on the northwest end of the home as opposed to the southwest to minimize hardcover in the “75-200 foot zone. ’ This happens to be where the existing drain field is located. Since the Bay Ridge neighborhood has voted unanimously to petition for city sewer. I’m assuming municipal sewer will occur in the relative near future and we will wait for this building addition until sewer is in place, which will hopefully be before the end of 1996. The existing garage and driveway will be removed. The e.xisting garage is just two feet from the south property line! The garage/bedrocin addition will be shielded from the Johnson property to the north by large, existing pine trees. The neighbor to the south (Kerber) will be delighted to have the detached garage removed, which is very close to his property. As I understand the regulations, I could build a double or triple detached garage structure with a 10 foot side setback. This would clearly be more objectionable to all my neighbors than my proposed plan. The additions will be no higher than the existing structure and will be tastefully designed, utilizing the same materials, i.e. brick on the bedroom/garage addition. The sun room will be constructed utilizing insulated glass units possessing a high insulating value. It is our plan to take the bedroom area of the existing home, which consists of three very small bedrooms and two small bathrooms, and make this into a single master suite and master bath. With the addition of the guest bedroom and bath, this will result in the home having two bedrooms and two bathrooms (as opposed to three bedrooms and two bathrooms now), with the possibility of adding a third bathroom in the basement.

Applicant hopes to attract waterfowl to a permanent open water area. The Type 2 wetland contains open water areas only during wet seasons of the year. On staffs inspection we found a wetland with predominantly cattails and some canary reed grass. The Engineer's Report Exhibit F-1-2, reports no problem with the proposed excavation of the open water area as long as certain guidelines are followed. The side slopes are tw steep at 4:1. The guidelines included with the Engineer ’s report suggest an 8:1 side slope. Portions ot the pond have a depth of 2-3' with a maximum depth of 4’ over 25% of the pond ’s surface. Per the attached handout fiom the DNR concerning excavated ponds for waterfowl, it would suggest even a more irregular shoreline with the flattened side slope. As predominant cattail growth exists within this portion of the wetland, the Engineer rccommen^ that the topsoil be salvaged for respreading over the disturbed area. Cattails will grow once again within this area of the topsoil. All disturbed areas should be restored with seeding using a wetland seed mixnire such as Mn/DOT mixture 250. Applicant may also be advised to construct the pond with a more irregular shoreline to further encourage use by waterfowl. Per the DNR handout, the size of the open water area should be no smaller than 2,500 s.f. Applicant's dugout is proposed at approximately 6,000+ s.f. Applicant should be encouraged to install the pond with variable depths to encourage vegetation growth within the open water area which is attractive to waterfowl. In no case should pond ever exceed 5 deptli. Code Requirements Code provides little direction as to alterations creating open water areas within designated wetlands. Section 10.56, Subd. 16 (J) (5-a) lists specific functional qualities that all wetlands provide and should retain as follows: Zoning File #2086 November 15, 1995 Pi^e 3 1. 3. Sediment and pollutant trapping and retention. The open water area will provide tor better sediment trapping. It will also provide greater retention. Storage of surface runoff to prevent or reduce flood damage. Storage capacity will be improved. Fish and wildlife habitat. The existing Type 2/3 wetland serv'cs as a habitat for certain species of wildlife. It is the hope of the applicant to now encourage waterfowi to the open water areas but will result in a loss of habitat for some. 4, Recreational use. The frozen water area could certainly serve for winter recreational use. 5.Shoreline or bank stabilization. Side slopes of banks will be installed to encourage waterfowl - no potential for future erosion or impact on remaining wetland. 6. Not clear if there is any noteworthy reason for creating the open water area for preservation of special wildlife species or vegetation. Section 10.55, Subd. 8 specifically prohibits the alteration of wetlands and any land alterations within 26' of that wetland. Section 10.55 specifically addresses flood plain and wetland issues. Members are encouraged to review Section 10.55 to determine if there are any standards appropriate for the alteration of wetlands. The Code relates specifically to flood plain issues. Refer to your Comprehensive Plan, the sections on environment and natural features. The wetlands of the City function as the natural stormwater retention areas. The current Federal regulations would require that stormw ater runoff be treated before draining into protected wetland areas. Runoff firom two acre rural sites will have a negligible impact on altered wetland. The Comp Plan does not prohibit the creation of open water areas within a wetland area; the CMP is concerned with the preservation of wetlands. General Comments Refer to Exhibit H, the specific designated wetland encroaches several lots within the Old Crystal Bay Road Addition plat. How shall we address other requests of adjacent property owners to excavate open water areas within their portion of this wetland? The existing Type 2 and in some sections Type 3 wetlands provides a habitat to wildlife. 6,000+ s.f. of open water area will now attract waterfowl. Staff would recommend that the applicant be required to replace the lost 6,000+ s.f. of Type 2 weUand. We suggest that the replacement be either at the southeast or southwest contiguous with the existing Type 2 wetland. The property at 2.25 acres will still retain the 2 acres of dry buildable; 2.25 acres exist 2.11 acres adjusted dry. Zoning File #2086 November 15, 1995 Page 4 Review Exhibit H, this specific wetland encroaches seven properties. If other property owners seek to dredge open water area within this same wetland system, we would expect each owner to mitigate equal areas of Type 2 for the area of dugout. Any property owner seeking to make similar alterations would have to have a minimum 2 acres of dry contiguous lands within their lot. Issues for Consideration 1. 2. 3. 4. Applicant has provided no information as to the method of excavating the pond. The City will not approve the bulldozer approach but would require a scoop method whereby only the area to be excavated is encroached upon. Topsoils, as the Engineer's report requests, would be used to spread within the disturbed area to allow for the return of the cattails. WTiat other issues should be addressed by applicant or applicant s contractor with this land alteration? Should the mitigation area be equal or greater to the open water area ... or should the City require mitigation? The City will recommend that the guidelines set out in the City Engineer's repx)rt and the DNR handout be followed as closely as possible. Applicant's pended plan should address the following guidelines, side slopes, irregular shoreline and location of mitigation area. Applicant's surveyor to confirm that there is no impact on adjacent properties with the expansion of the designated wetland at either the southeast or southwest comers of property. Has applicant convinced members of the need for the open water area within the designated wetland (review E.xhibit D)7 Do members perceive of conflicts with future requests for open water areas within this wetland? 5. Other issues raised by Planning Commission. Any recommendation of approval must include the following conditions. a. b. Prior to scheduling the application before the Council for final action, the City must be in receipt of written comments from both the Corps of Engineers and the Watershed District concerning this application. Prior to scheduling the application before the City Council, applicant must provide an amended plan following the guidelines set forth by City Engineer Md DNR. The plan is to reflect mitigation area if recommended by the Planning Commission.

We feel that this will cause minimal impact to existing area inhabitants and neighbors and will enhance and improve the conditions and opportunities for waterfowl and all other wildlife. By the creation of this sediment pond, we will also insure that better drainage conditions will always exist for our proposed home. In our discussions with the Army Corp. of Engineers, the Watershed District, our planner and surveyor, we agree with them in stating that this project, as it occurs mainly in the transitional portion of our wetland, will have little or no effect, and be seen only as an overall improvement for all involved.

PE Lee M Mann. P E. Charles A. Erickson Leo M. Pawcisky Harlan M. Otton Agnes M. Ring James P Crsgeihardi Dear Jeanne, Wc have reviewed the proposal to create a pond within an existing Type 2 cattail wetland at 2915 Somerset Lane, located on Lot 2, Block 4, Old Crystal Bay Road 2nd Addition. This wetland is protected by the City of Orono by ordinance, regulated by the Minnehaha Creek Watershed District at the State level as part of the Wetland Conservation Act (WCA). and under the jurisdiction of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (COE) at the Federal level. I discussed the proposed pond with John Smythe, a wetland scientist at our office. He had the following general comments in regards to excavating ponds within wetlands. It depends on the conditions of the wetland in question. If the wetland consists mainly of one type of plant such as reed canary grass or cattails, wc prefer to see an increase in diversity by adding different types of habitat such as open water. For certain types of priority wetlands such as sedge meadows, Type 1 or 2 scrub-shrub, or wooded wetlands, we do not recommend excavation. We prefer that ponds are constructed near the wetland fringe to remove reed canary grass whenever possible. The COE has a general permit No. 18 for excavation of a wildlife pond which should be followed. Mitigation of the excavated wetland area could be required by the City or COT, however excavation is not regulated by the WCA. If the pond is constructed in accordance with permit #18 the COE would probably not require mitigation. Cattails do have a benefit by providing habitat during the winter months when other plants arc beneath the snow. However, there is a benefit added by excavating in an area of reed canary grass. The proposed pond docs not conform to permit #18 only because the sideslopes are too steep (4-foot H to 1-foot V). We would recommend approval of the propc)sed pond if the grading plan is revised to follow the attached guidelines. Existing topsoil should be salvaged for respreading over the disturbed areas. These areas should be restored with seeding using a wetland seed mixture such as Mn/DOT mixture 250. Please contact me at this office if you have any questions regarding this matter.

Specifi­ cally, many people wonder if excavating ponds will help. This brochure will outline when and where dug ponds, or “dugouts”, can be beneficial, and provides construc ­ tion guidelines for optimum waterfowl benefit. Refer to our “Ecologj ’ of Wetlands ” brochure for more informa ­ tion. SHOULD YOU CONSIDER A DUGOUT FOR YOUR PROPERTY? Dugouts should be considered only where other wetland management options are not possible. Before you decide to excavate a pond, you should survey the site to determine if othei options, such as ditch plugs, tile breaks, or dikes would work. Wetlands restored by reducing dft ’nage are always preferable to dugouts. In general, dugouts should only be constructed if there are other open-water wetlands within one-half mile. Waterfowl use dugouts primarily for courtship and territorial sites, and must have other wetlands to fulfill feeding and brood-rearing needs. Small dug- outs (less than one-half acre) are used mostly in spring oi fall migration, less so in summer. Larger dugouts will get more summer use, if they’re the right depth (1.5-3 feet). You should not excavate a dugout in an existing wetland, especially one with open water. This can destroy the existing wetland by draining surface water off. Excavations should be outside the edge of the wetland, where the water table is still adequately high. Cattail-choked wetlands are an exception to this rule, where vegetation covers the entire surface of the wetland, and surface water is rarely present. In these cases, it may be acceptable to dig in the wetland basin, but you should still stay close to the edge. For these projects, you will need to observe permit requirements described below and should talk to the local DNR Wildlife Manager. I CONSTRUCTION GUIDELINES 1. PERNIITS. Wetlands are protected by se\ eraJ laws, and a permit may be required for your project. Four government agencies regulate wetlands, and should be contacted if you will be working in an existing wet­ land. These agencies arc: U.S. Army Corps of Engi­ neers. USDA - Agricultural Stabilization and Conser­ vation Service (ASCS), the DNR Division of VC aters. and your city or count)' zoning office or local water­ shed district. Phone numbers fo'' the first 3 agencies are given at the end of this brochure; check your local directory for the number of your local office. 2. DEPTH AND SLOPES. Waterfowl need shallow water. VC'hen filled with water, your dugout should be no more than 5 feet deep. In mid-summer, much of your dugout should be less than 3 feet in depth. Your pond should generally have the following depths when it is full (as in spring): Water Depth 0 to 1 foot 1 to 3 feet 3 to 5 feet Pet. of Pond at this Depth 5 to 15 40 to 70 25 to 40 Likelv Result Cattails/emergent vegetation, usually dry by July. Mixed emergent vegetation and open water, dty in drought. Mostly open water, dry in severe drought. If you are constructing a dugout in cattail-choked wetlands, you will not be able to achieve the above depths. In these cases, the slopes of your dugout will have to be fairly steep. This is okay as these dugouts will function mostly as territorial sites, and mav not be * 4 heavily used for feeding, ivlaximum depth still should not exceed 5 feet. In mineral soils, steep slopes prohibit growth ofdesirable vegetation, encourage erosion, and reduce waterfowl use. As much as possible, grade the slopes ofyour basin at a 3:1 (steep) to 10:1 (flat) ratio. Flatter slopes are better, which is not the same as a flat bottom. C Figure I. Topographic diagram of a good basin design; this design emphasizes shallow slopes and depths (each line ^ represents one foot of depth), and good shorelinefeatures. Adjacent uplands are seeded to native grasses. A pond bottom with variable depths (i.e., an undulat­ ing bottom) is very desirable. This allows an intersper- sion of vegetation and open water which is very attractive to waterfowl. Some biologists prefer to construct dugouts with one deep side to ensure water availability and allow for viewing of waterfowl. Figure 1 shows an example of a good basin design from the perspective of slopes and depths. 3. SIZE. Waterfowl use all sizes of wetland, but usually, bigger is better. In building your pond for waterfowl you should consider a minimum size of 2500 square feet (equal to a square with 50 foot long sides). Larger, irregularly shaped ponds are preferred, however costs get quite high. 4. SHORELINE FEATURES. A pond with a shore­ line which is irregular, and has many points and bays, is more attractive to waterfowl than a dugout with a straight shoreline. Plan your dugout to have as much shoreline as possible, as in tigure 1 . 5. NL'MBtR AND DISTRIBUTION. .\iexplained above, your dugout should be near an existing shallow marsh for brood-rearing purposes. If you have ad ­ equate space and funding, you can consider digging more than one dugout. In general, two closely-spaced small dugouts will receive more use than one larger dugout. If you construct more than one pond, space them about 100 to 300 feet apart. Bonds can be closer if tall vegetation screens the ponds from each other (breeding ducks are territorial and won t tolerate oth­ ers of the same species if they can see them). 6. ISLANDS. Duuouts less than two acres are too small to include an island. As an alternatise vou can S use nest baskets, boxes or floating rafts for nesting. floating log. anchored in place, orovides an excellent site for waterfow l and turtle loafing. See our brochure entitled “Artificial Structures for Waterfowl. 7. SPOIL. Lxcavating a pond means you end up with a lot of soil removed from the dugout: this is called “spoil.” Spoil must be carefully dealt with to optimize waterfowl use. In peat soils and cattail-choked wet­ lands, you should remove the spoil from the wetland if at all possible. .Again, check with the appropriate agencies (sec list at end) to determine if you need a permit. In mineral soils, the top 6"-l 2" will probably be black topsoil, high in organic matter. This should be saved separately for later spreading over the excavated bot­ tom. The underlying nonorganic soils (clays, sands, etc.) should be moved to an upland site and spread cx'cniy. It is important that this material be removed from the wxtland basin and not piled adj.tcent the dugout. The edge of the dugout should not have a discernible “rim”; that is, the slope should be continu­ ous below and above the water surface, as shown in the cross-scction in figure 2. Finally, all disturbed uplands and spread spoil should be scedc*d to native grasses for a minimum of 150 feet around the dugout. This w il! provide w aterfow 1 cover, minimize weed growth, and prevent sedimentation w ithin the basin. Providing 4 acres of upland nesting cover for each acre of w etland is best for duck produc­ tion. Do not plant trees near your dugout: these serve as predator perches and dens, and w ill reduce water- fowl use. Use nest boxes to attract wood ducks. Remember to get any necessary’ permits before you start digging! S. FINAL TRE.AT.MENT. The clav and sand under-# lying most mineral soils are very' sterile and won’t support plant gr«)wth. In order to establish a food chain in your dugout. you must provide an organic base. This can be accomplished by spreading 4”-6” of black topsoil over the entire excavated area. This can be the topsoil you originally removed (and stockpiled) from the site when you started digging. Another technique is to spread 2"-6" of clean upland hay over the excavated surface (wild hay can spread noxious weeds). Both can be used simultaneouslv. Once covered with water, either of these bases will quickly allow vegetation and insects to grow, providing the building blocks for a desirable marsh. Don’t worry about planting aquatic plants in your b,isin - they will establish themselves naturally in time, given a suitable site. Feet o O. Q p 0 ■q O oO o 0%o O Q :o Feet Figure 2. Cross-section of pond bottom showing smooth, shallow grade at waterline, and undulating bottom contours. SO\!E OTHER CONSIDERATIONS ADDITIONAl. ASSISTANCE In general, a bulldozer or scraper is best capable of construaing ponds as they can be fairly precise in “sculpting ” the landscape. A backhoe (power shovel) or excavator can do a good job, and a dragline can produce fair results. The nature ofsxiur project will likely determine to a large degree exactly which equipment is used. U you have a diy site, use a dozer, scraper, or backhoe. If it's a wet site, a backhoe or dragline must be used. .Minimize the disturbance to existing vegetation around your dug- out or vou will encourasie undesirable vveed • growth. Blasting with dynamite or ammonium nitrate gives unsatisfactory results, is dangerous, and should not be used. Most resource agencies discourage the use of dug ponds for waterfowl because ot their high cost. However, you may be able to get some further technical or financial assistance. Some counts ’ ASCS offices will cost-share construction costs through the .Agricultural Conserva ­ tion Practices (AGP) program. Local SCS or Soil and Water Conservation District offices mav be able to provide further technical advice. The DNR Section of Wildlife can give general advice for your area, and should be checked for permit requirements. In forested areas of the state, your DNR forester may be able to provide cost­ sharing through the Forest Stewardship Program. Fi­ nally. local and statewide clubs may offer cost-share assistance; check with them for specifics.

Mabusth, Building & Zoning Administrator November 13, 1995 /J- SUBJECT: #2087 Minnegasco, Inc., 530 Old Crystal Bay Road North - Renewal Conditional Use Permit - Public Hearing Application: In 1990 the Cit\' granted a conditional use permit for a five year period to the applicant to allow temporaiy use of a portable vaporizer to provide additional gas supplies to the northwest Lake Minnetonka area until more permanent facilities were installed. Applicant has applied for a renewal conditional use permit for another five year period to allow the temporary use of the vaporizer as originally proposed in the 1990 application. Pertinent Ordinances Section 10.50, Subd. 3(A-7) - Conditional use permit required for public service structure within industrial zone. Minnegasco proposes the continued use of portable liquid natural gas vaporizer to inject gas into the distribution system during periods of high demand within the winter months. Required setbacks A. Street setback adjacent to residential zone Required = 75 ’ Proposed = 75'+ B. Required rear setback Required = 30’ Setback from rear/east property line = 100'+ C. Required side yard setback (I'/ix the height of the tanker at approximately 15’) Side yard setback required = 22.5’ Side setback adjacent to residential used portion of industrial property = 40 ’ fi’om tanker truck location. Residential use structiue on subject property is over 260 ’ from proposed operation. Section 10.61, Subdivision 5(C) - Vehicle parking areas must meet 5’ side and rear setbacks and 20 ’ street setback.

Temporary solution approved by the City in 1990 involved the installation of a vaporizer placed on top of a flatbed. Operation was to be completely fenced in with a 8' high cyclone fence covered with a wind screen that provided the necessa^ degree of opaqeness. Minnegasco advises that during the cold weather months a truck will arrive on site in the early morning between the hours of 5:00 a.m. and 9:00 a.m. Personnel of Minnegasco are at the site during the filling process the liquified natural gas. The site is only used on e.xtremely cold days in the winter when there is a need. Review Exhibit C, one of the main concerns during the earlier review was the temporary nature of the use and to establish a time frame when the use could be eliminated. Applicant at that time felt that five years was adequate. Review Exhibit C, applicant notes that due to Hennepin County's delays with the reconstruction of County Road 6 at the intersection of Watertown Road that Minnegasco's plans to tie two systems located at Townline Road and Orchard Park Road were never realized. This improvement would have provided additional gas supplies in I Zoning File #2087 November 13, 1995 Page 3 that area. It is possible that this upgrade "may" eliminate the need for the vaporizer station in the Orono Industrial Park. As in the earlier review applicant advises that the facility may not be needed and could be removed in less than five years. The current renewal is for another five years. Over the five year period the City has received no negative comments fix»m adjacent neighbors nor of other residents in the City regarding the use or operation ot the facility'. There have been no accidents resulting fix)m the trucks that visit the site during the early morning hours. Planning Commission members not familiar with the facility should visit the site. Members may not have realized that this was a facility owned by Minnegasco and assumed that it was part of the industrial operation. The current application involves no changes from the original proposal. The use will not be intensified and will continue to operate at the same level. All equipment except for power pole remains during the summer months. Lighting is not required except during the loading or filling times in the early mornings during the winter months. Issues for Consideration 1. <4i** 3. 4. Certain site improvements were not required because of the temporary nature of the use, i.e. landscaping, bituminous surfacing. In the earlier review applicant noted certain limitations placed on Minnegasco by VCI the owners of the property regarding permanent landscaping. Members may wish to discuss further with applicant. Resolution #2879 (Condition 5) specifically cautioned applicant that there was no guarantee of a renewal of this conditional use permit in the future. Will members recommend a renewal conditional use permit for__________five years to the Council? Review the conditions of approval within Resolution #2879. Are there additional conditions that should be added to the current review. Review Exhibit C, applicant's statement notes connecting lines at Townline Road and Orchard Park Road mav eliminate the need for the vaporizer station. Applicant should advise what other types of upgrades are necessary to ensure a permanent solution. 5. Other issues raised by the Planning Commission.

The period of this permit was five years. The purpose of the portable vaporizer is to provide additional gas supplies to the northwest Lake Minnetonka area on a temporary basis until permanent solutions can be completed. Minnegasco began using the Old Crystal Bay Road location on days during the winter of 1992-93 and has used it on cold days every year since. Minnegasco has completed several projects in the western Hennepin County area to increase our natural gas delivery to the area. A list of these projects and future projects is attached. Minnegasco wishes to renew it's conditional use permit for an additional five years. Our plan is to use the facility for two to five years as a backup until we can complete a project along County Road 6 and while we determine the effects of the completed and future projects. Customer growth in the northwest Lake Minnetonka area has increased by approximately 500 new services per year. This is much greater than we anticipated. We expect the population to continue growing at this rate. For this reason we would like to extend our conditional use permit. Should you have any questions please contact me. Siyrj. - ■ Richard J.

Bo.x 1105 <8 9% -•••,» f « ATTACHMENT In 1991 Minnegasco arranged for an additional delivery point from Northern Natural Gas Company at North Branch Road ana Painters Creek Drive. Natural gas mains were installed to p..ovide additional service to Orono, Minnetrista, Independence, .ap e Plain, and Loretto. In 1993 Minnt;gasco extt^.-ded a high pressure transmission line Lake Street and Minnetonka Boulevard in Excelsior to Hopivi...> Crossroad and Minnetonka Boulevard in Minnetonka. This pipexine, indirectly, provides additional gas supplies for the northwst Lake Minnetonka area through gas mains along T.H. 12, County Roads 5 and 51 and Medina Road and County Road 101. Additional project are planned in the area. Currently planned is a project on County Road 84, between County Road 51 and Fairview Lane to connect two systems together and provide reinforcement in the area. Another project is planned in conjunction with a Hennepin County road reconstruction project along County Road 6 between Townline Road and Orchard Park Road to tie two systems together and provide additional gas supr.lies in that area. The Hennepin County project has been proposed for a number of years. It has been postponed for at least the past two years. Completion of this project may eliminate the need for the vaporizer station. Other projects in the area are currently in development. The final design and status of these projects depends on development and population growth in the area. 6 ^ V • •^7 f : I i u u I I J mJN OATI 10/26/95 5ATCH 501 CMCi HMC TAXPAYEO NAME/AMfl ^ROP AOOR 0»tCR NAH6 TAXPAYER NAtC/AOOR PROP ADOR OmER HAME TAXPAYER NAHE/AOOR PROP AOOR QNHER MAKE TAXPAYER NAME/AOOR f - /' v,#-' la S3-110-2S 12 0002 02765 KELLEY PKNY COUNTY OF HENNEPIN HENNEPIN COUNTY LIBRARY RIDOEDALE DR AT PLYNOUTH RO HimETCNKA HN 55S41 ORONO LIBRARY SITE SB SS-11S-2S IS 0011 02765 NAYZATA BLVD H VEDA INC ETAL VEDA INC PO BOX S75 LONB LAKE m 55SS6 SB SS-118-2S IS 0014 02725 NAYZATA BLVO H VEDA INC VEDA INC PO BOX S75 LONB LAKE MN 55S56 HEItKPIN COUNTY PROPERTY X^ORNATIQN SYSTEN PROPERTY ONNERS LIST SB SS-11B-2S 12 OOOa 02745 KELLEY PKKY HILLON PROPERTIES NILLON PROPERTIES C/0 ALBERT B YfIbVfi 1021 IDAHO AVE N GOLDEN VALLEY m 55427 SB SS-llB 2S IS 0012 00450 OLD CRYSTAL BAY RD N VEDA INC VCI CAPITAL INC PO BOX S75 LONG LAKE m 55S56 SB SS-11B-2S IS 0015 02605 NAYZATA BLVO N NASHIMPTON SCIENTIFIC IND NASHINOTON SCIENTIFIC IND P O BOX S40 LONG LAKE m 55S56 SB SS-11B-2S 24 0001 00595 OLD CRYSTAL DAY RO N ROBERT N NAGNER ETAL ROBERT NAGNER 595 OLD CRYSTAL BAY RO N LONB LAKE HN 55S56 IB SS-11B-2S 24 0002 OOOSB ADDRESS UNASSIGNEO JOATM R FR«m^< trustee JOANN R FRS^f TRUSTEE 521 N HILLON DR LONG LAKE HN 55S56 REPORT NO.

The Council men on the above date with the following members present: Acting Mayor Callahanr Councilmembers Nettlesr Goetten and Peterson. Mayor Grabek was absent. The following represented the City staff: City Administrator Bernhardson# Building & Zoning Administrator Mcibusth# Public Works Director Gerhardson, Assistant Planning and Zoning Administrator Gaffron» City Attorney Barrett, City Engineer Cook and City Recorder Vee. #1590 MIBHBGASCOr INC. 530 OLD CRYSTAL BAY ROAD PUBLIC HEARING 7:02 TO 7:18 P.M. . — The Affidavit of Publication and Certificate of Mailing were duly noted. Tom Meyer was present representing Minnegasco. City Administrator reviewed this request for an up to S year conditional use permit on a piece of industrially zoned property on Cld Crystal Bay Road. Minnegasco is looking to install a heat saving plant at this location. It is a fenced in area of about 150' X 150 ’, which during the winter months will have a semi-trailer with a vaporizer located on this site. During critically cold times when their supply is low a liquified natural gas tanker will come in. The operation will be supervised by individuals during that time and once the need is passed, the tanker will be removed and just the vaporizer will remain on location. During the non-winter months the vaporizer will be removed. The Planning Commission has recommended approval with conditions regarding natural screening. Minnegasco feels because of the temporary nature that the screening will be cost prohibitive and are proposing an alternate type of false brickwork to meet the opaqeness requirement. Acting Mayor Callahan noted that the original application was also a public hearing but was for property located across the street. This public hearing is held to conform to the public hearing requirements. Goetten asked if the fencing issue had been resolved. Tom Meyer presented plans showing layout with fencing. He f - noted that this is a temporary use, a maximum of five years, and actually anticipating 1 to 3 years use. Distribution in this area is weak and would be used to forestall outages in^r^ely cold weather, below IS degrees. The unit wxll axt in the middle of the property. Photos of a sxmxlar unit used in Spring Park last year were presented to Council for review. .The vaporizer xs__ mounted on a flatbed trailer and a tank truck would be pulled up ; r • in the cold weather for 3-4 months per year. During the^ ^ •I- ....x OROMO REGULAR COUHCIL MEETING mn-.n OCTOBER 8, 1990 PUBLIC HEARING #1590 MINNEGASCO CONTINUED remaining months the property would basically be vacant except for the power pole^ A map showing affected usage area was presented. A permanent installation will be piped from the Minnetrista area and connected to the distribution system on Crystal Bay Road. Nettles asked if neighbors had a fenoing preference. Mr. Meyer responded that they had not heard from the neighbors. Goetten asked if the City had heard from any neighbors. Callahan answered by stating that the screening issue came spontaneously from Planning Commission while considering other concerns of this application. Mabusth also stated that the applicant proposed cyclone fencing which offers no opaqueness. The City code requires 50% opaqeness. The Planning Commission was responding to the code requirements not the concern of neighbors. Goetten raised the point of 6* fencing. Mabusth stated code requires a minimum of 5' for any kind of outdoor storage. Goetten noted that an 8' fence would then have to be very solid. Tom Meyers replied, "This 8' fence is what is required by the Federal regulations when we deal with the liquified natural gas faoilities.” Minnegasoo feels the ohain link fence provides best security with the screening required. It was moved by Acting Mayor Callahan, seconded by Nettles, to approve Resolution #2879, granting a conditional use permit for the temporary installation of a portable liquid natural gas vaporizer at 530 Old Crystal Bay Road with chain link fencing and wind screening defined as "open" type.

There were no cements from the public pertaining to this application and the Public Hearing was closed. any be Mabusth asked Mr. Blue whether he intends to make alterations to the deck. She informed him that it would necessary to apply for a variance to do so. Mr. Blue stated that he does not intend to do anything with the deck. Kelley asked Mr. Blue whether there are frost footings under the deck. Mr. Blue indicated that the deck has a floating slab. Bellows noted that a lot coverage Variance of .046% is also a consideration in this application. Ic was moved by Hanson, seconded by Moos, to recommend aporoval of the side and front street setbacks Variances and the lot coverage Variance to reconstruct a garage addition. Further it is recommended that approval be given for a sideyard setback Variance for any possible repairs to the existing porch. Kelley asked whether frost footings will be placed under the garage. Mr. Blue indicated that he did not intend to have frost footings. Mabusth stated that the garage will have to meet the Building Code. Bellows said, "This is a much more ambitious project than the drawings indicate. I am uncomfortable with the aspect of approving something that has not been included in the application (frost footings for porch). I also believe that the application is incomplete! I do not object to t.he project, but I do object to our voting on it without proper documentation. The application makes no reference to the roof project. I think it sets a bad precedent to approve this without having all the information required. I do not think the elevations provided by Mr. Blue are sufficient." Kelley suggested that the Planning Commission and staff should review the issue of application information at a later time. Motion, Ayes-6, Nays-0, Bellows abstained. Motion carried. #1590 MINNEGASCO, INC. 525 OLD CRYSTAL BAY ROAD NORTH CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT PUBLIC HEARING 8:27 P.M. TO 8:40 P.M. The Affidavit of Publication and Certificate of Mailing were duly noted. Mr. Thomas Meyer and Susan Turbes, Minnegasco - 14 - ORONO PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING SEPTEMBER 17, 1990 ZONING FILE #1590-MINNEGASCO, INC. CONTINUED Representatives, were present. Mabusth presented information relating to this application (see Jeanne Mabusth's memo dated September 12, 1990). She said, "I have received the City Engineer's comments. He has approved the access. With regard to the concern of hazards created by the propane, the City Engineer states there is far less hazard with propane than with gasoline. There is very little opportunity for there to be an explosion. The City Engineer recommended that there be Minnegasco staff present while the vaporizing process is in operation. That is what Minnegasco has proposed." Mabusth provided pictures of a similar tanker and vaporizer located in Spring Park. Kelley asked whether the blue trailer fixture. permanent Mr. Meyer replied, "The blue trailer will be located in the fencing during the winter months. In the summer, all of the equipment will be removed, with the exception of a power pole and stand pipe that will be installed. The fence will remain on the property for the entire three to five years." Bellows noted that the fence will serve only as security, and not as a means of screening the equipment from view, Kelley asked whether the site will be illuminated. Mr. Meyer replied. "There will be a light on during the operation periods. Perhaps I should explain the process and purpose. We are trying to provide reliable service for our customers. Two years ago there was an incident in Mound where 1,000 customers lost gas service for a period of time. The temperature dropped to more than 20 degrees below zero. The problem is that the area has been growing faster than Minnegasco has been able to install additional pipes to provide service. The problems only occur on the extremely cold days of the year, in the early morning, when there is a maximum demand for gas. This will provide a temporary solution to that problem until there is enough of an increase in the area to justify a permanent solution. That solution is currently being designed, but we don't anticipate it to be installed for another three to five years. The unit that is mounted on the trailer will remain on the site during the winter. When there is a forecast in the winter for an extremely cold day, the tanker truck will arrive at the site around 4:00 a.m. The unit would be disconnected around 9:00 a.m. when the process is complete and the tanker will be removed." Kelley asked if there is any other location that would be - 15 - ORONO planning COMMISSION MEETING SEPTEMBER 17, 1990 ZONING FILE #1590-MINNEGASCO, INC., CONTINUED suitable for this. Mr. Meyer replied, "We did consider other locations, but felt that this location is central to where there is the greatest need. The topography of the land in this location is desirable. We want a flat site that is just off of a niajor road and is readily accessible to our facilities. As a clarification, we be hauling propane as indicated by the City Engineer. We will haul liquified natural gas. The tank truck is a double- walled truck with a nickel-steel interior. It is designed to withstand the temperature of the liquified gas which is 260 degrees below zero." asked this. Mrs. Rose Mary Vickerman, 425 North Old Crystal Bay Road, if there will be much additional traffic resulting from Mr. Meyer replied, "The only additional traffic will be the tanker truck on extremely cold days. It will arrive and stay on the site until 9:00 a.m. or so." Mrs. Vickerraan stated that there are many schoolbusses in that area around 9:00 a.m. She suggested that the tanker be left on the site until 10:00 a.m. Mr. Meyer stated that they could probably do that. Kelley asked how many times last year such a facility would have been utilized. Mr. Meyer stated that the Spring Park facility was used three times. He said, "If we have an unusually cold winter, it may be used more." Kelley asked if the three to five year term of the Conditional Use Permit was reasonable. Mr. Meyer replied, "We would be in this particular location for a maximum of five years. If the pipe has not been installed by that time, we would find another location." There were no additional public comments and the Public Hearing was closed. Kelley stated that he v/ould prefer to have the 8' fence screened. He added, "I would also like to require that should the plant material used for screening die, it must be replaced." Mr. Meyer replied, "Our code does not permit us to have vegetation in the area of the facility." - 16 - ORONO PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING SEPTEMBER 17, 1990 ZONING FILE 11590-MINNEGASCO, INC., CONTINUED Kelley asked wnether plane niaesrial could be placed outside of the fence. Mr. Meyer stated t.hat ciay be possible. We would have to request permission from VanDale (owner of the property) to screen outside of that area. It was the consensus of the Planning Commission that screening should be provided on tne nort.h, south and west side of the facility. XL was moved by Kelley, seconded by Moos, to recommend approval of the C.U.P., with the condition that .Minnegasco provide a sketch plan showing screening for the north, west and sout.h side of t.he facility.

(Planning Commissioner Cohen departed at t.his point of the meeting.) #1555 LANDSTAR, INC. 2501 OLD BEACH ROAD PRELIMINARY SUBDIVISION CONTINUATION OF PUBLIC HEARING AND RENOTIFICATION Mr. James MacKinnon, Attorney, and Mr, Dennis Developer, were present. Sandin, Mabusth noted that Mr. MacKinnon had just left the Minnetonka Beach Planning Commission Meeting. She asked him to report on the action taken regarding this application. Mr. MacKinnon said, "The Minnetonka Beach Planning Commission gave a unanimous recommendation for approval. The Planning Commission questioned whether we intended to add fill in a particular location. I informed them we did not. JoEllen Hurr indicated that she would reco.Tunend that the outlot be separated according to the property within Minnetonka Beac.h and Orono so each City will have its own outlot." Mabusth depicted the outlot to which Mr. Mac.Kinnon referred, fhe said, "It is necessary for each City to have a separate outlot because of the different City Ordinances each City will ■jse to govern the outlot." Mr. MacKinnon continued. He said, "Ms. Hurr also indicated that she may recommend to Council that they not allow any outlot in that location at all, but require it to be part of Lot One and Lot Two. She stated that she does not trust the University of Minnesota. She is concerned that the Foundation may give the outlot to the University some time in the future. The Planning Commission did not include that suggestion in their motion.

Lot width: (measured parallel to front lot line per Code definition) Existing width: 287.56 ’ Required: 300.9’ Variance: 12.44 ’ or 4.1% (Functional width is about 243 ’ measured perpendicular to side lot lines) Required setbacks: (see Exhibit F) Front: 100’ Sides: 50’ Wetland: 26 ’ (Buildable envelope is about 140 ’ x 400') 4. Parcel valuation for ta.\ purposes has been relatively low ($8400 for the last five years) as compared to land valuations for similar nearby developed parcels, suggesting that the City Assessor has not valued this as a building site. Taxes on the parcel have averaged around $300 per year over the last ten years. 5. Applicant notes the parcel was purchased in 1972, although the tax records don’t reflect a change in ownership until 1977. 6. Zoning: This area of Orono was first zoned in 1957 as the "Residual Zoning District", designated as private residential with no limitations on lot size or wddth. Subsequent Code amendments required a minimum lot size of one acre/140 ’ width. In 1967, this area of northwest Orono was rezoned as "R-IC", Single Family Residential, 1 acre minimum lot size. In 1975, the area was again rezoned and became part of the "RR- lA" Single Family Rural Residential District requiring a minimum of 5 acres in area. 7. The Zoning Code requires that a buildable property in the 5 acre zone contain 5 acres of dry buildable land, of which at least 2.0 acres must be contiguous with the building site. In the current application we are dealing with a single contiguous dry buildable parcel of 3.6 acres, with an additional 2.9 acres of wetland to the north of it. Septic System Considerations The Orono On-Site Sewage Treatment Code, Section 12.30, Subd. 4 (F) requires that no building permit shall be issued for any new building which will be connected to a new on-site system until the Site Evaluation Report and System Design Specifications as required by the MPCA Regulations Chapter 7080 and the City Code have been reviewed and approved. The applicant’s site evaluator has been working with Septic System Inspector Steve Weckman in Zoning File #2089 November 14, 1995 Page 3 attemptine to define suitable drainfield sites on the property. It appears that suitable sites^ feasible in the locations shovsu on E-xhibit G, one site on either side of the driveway (the driveway was constructed by the applicant in early 1980*s). As of this writing, a complete Septic System Site Evaluation and Design Report has not been received from the applicants site evaluator. Buildable Envelope With 50' side, 100’ front and 26' wetland setbacks, the buildable envelope for this site is approximately’60,000 s.f., certainly large enough to accommodate a single family residence. •Die probable building site is in the northern half of the dry buildable area, approximately where the driveway fill ends. Any building site in the south half ot the lot may conflict with septic sites. Five Acre Zone Standards/Philosophy In 1975 the City Council agreed to a rezoning of the northwest quadrant of the City to require a lot ar^a minimum of 5 acres per building sile. This rezoning was a response to the many Dtopenv- owners in that area who wished to preserve the open space character of northwest Orono. The RR-IA zone contains approximately 1330 acres (13% of the total land area m Orono), of which approximately 290 acres is wetland. This vacant substandard lot in single separate ownership is quite unique m the 5 acre zone. It is one of the few remaining yacani substandaid Ifils in single separate Qvvnership m the s acre zone which remains to be developed. It has good access onto Watertoi^ Road, md construction of a residence on the property appears quite feasible subject to confirmation that septic sites are available. Issues for Consideration I Has adequate hardship been demonstrated to justify granting the lot area and width variances? 2. If the property was not granted buildability, what other uses does it have to the property owner? 3. Will development of a single family residence on this property change the character of the neighborhood? 4. Does Planning Commission have any other issues to be considered? Zoning File #2089 November 14,1995 Paee 4 Staff RecommeDdation If Planning Commission concludes that the hardships noted by the applicant or other hardships determined by the Planning Commission provide sufficient justification for granting of the lot width and area variances, then a recommendation for approval would be appropriate. Such approval should be conditioned on final confirmation by the Septic System Inspector that suitable primary and alternate drainfield sites arc available. Options for Action 1. Approval. 2.

Two Acre Application: Request for lakeshore setback, average lakeshore setback and hardcover variance for installation of three bay window areas to be installed on the lakeside of the existing residence within the 0-75’ zone.

(1995 calculations by surveyor do not include 260 s.f. of rock and plastic in 0-75 zone nor 262 s.f. of rock and plastic in 75-250' zone. Also, 1991 calculations include roof overhang as hardcover.) Discussion Applicants propose to add floor-to-ceiling bay windows (matching an existing bay window) along the lakeside of the existing house. The hous- is partially within the 0-75 setback zone, as a result of a variance granted in 1974 (see Exhibit 1). While the proposed bay windows will extend the house 3' closer to the shoreline, they are entirely over existing deck hardcover which has existed since the house was built. Bay windows will be entirely underneath the existing 4' overhang, but are considered an addition to the existing house, requiring a lakeshore setback variance. While the windows extend closer to the lake and increase the degree of encroachment of the average lakeshore setback line (see survey. Exhibit F), they will likely not be visible from either neighboring adjacent property and will have no impact on neighbors' views of the lake. The main impact of these windows will be in their expansion of the majority of the lakeside wall of the house 3 ’ closer to the lake. Hardcover This property was the subject of a variance application in 1991 which was eventu^ly withdrawn by the previous owner. However, survey work with complete hardcover calculations were submitted for that application, and it appears that there are two changes in hardcover over the last four yeais: Zoning File #2091 November 15, 1995 Page 3 A 6' X 7 dock access platform has been constructed at the shoreline above the riprap. Applicant ’s sur\ey indicates this is land^^•a^d of the 929.4 elevation, and therefore constitutes additional hardcover requiring a variance. Applicant should discuss the need for this platform, and Planning Commission should determine whether it should be allowed to remain (no permit was issued for this strucnire). A portion of the driveway in the 75-250’ zone has been expanded since the 1990 survev to create a tennis court. An 8'+ height cyclone fence also was installed at the perimeter of this court. Under current Code the additional paving constimtes additional hardcover, although no permit was required. However, a permit likely would have been required for the fence exceeding 6' in height. Hardcover in both 0-75’ and 75-250’ zones is excessive on tliis property. Using the 1995 surveyor’s calculation and adding in more than 500 s.f. of rock and plastic hardcover, overall hardcover on the property is 36J%, greatly exceeding the 25% DNR standard for the entire lot. Issues for Consideration 1. Does the additional average lakeshore setback encroachment by the new bay windows have any impact on neighboring properties? 2. Although the new bay windows are above the existing deck and below existing overhang, they do result in the wall of the house being perceived as 3’ closer to the lake. Is there sufficient hardship and justification for the lakeshore setback variance? 3. Although the bay windows do not constitute new hardcover, they may tend to intensify the existing hardcover (i.e. whate\er rainfall drained through the spaces between deck boards will no longer do so). Given the excessive hardcover on the proi^, does Planning Commission feel there is a need to mitigate this addition by removing excess hardcover elsewhere in the 0-75’ zone? In the 75-250’ zone? Has applicant adequately justified the 6 ’ x 7’ platform at the shoreline? Should excessive areas of the driveway be considered for removal? Staff Recommendation If Planning Commission finds that the variances are supported by adequate ji^tification ^d findings of hardship, then a recommendation for approval would be appropriate. Plaiming Commission may wish to condition approval on removal of other items of hardcover on the property.

Candace Rowlette and Sandra Smith were absent The following represented the City Staff; Building and tuning Administrator Jeanne Mabusth, Assistant Planning and Zoning Administrator Michael Galfron and Recorder Sherry Frost. Mayor Callahan and Council Member Goetten were present Chair Peterson called the meeting to order at 7:00 p.m (#1) #2076 ROBERT ROBERTSON AND WELDON H. DUNN, 3535/3565 WATERTOWN ROAD - SUBDIVISION OF A LOT LINE REARRANGEMENT, CLASS 1 - PUBLIC HEARING 7:01-7:04 P.M. The Certificate of Mailing and .Affidavit of Publication were noted. The Applicants were present. Mabusth reported that the application is for a subdivision of a lot line rearrangement for a division of a smaller parcel The parcel to the east is less than the required 2 acres with the wetland with a slight encroachment into parcel B. Parcel A will be 2 acres and parcel B will remain at 3 acres There would be no encroachment ot the septic site areas The division line follows a fence and along a natural division created by higher elevations. A dedication of right-of-way via quit-claim deed for Watertown Road and Stubbs Bay Road is required. Peterson asked the Applicants if they were familiar with the Staff recommendations, in particular, the right-of-way dedication and survey, and received confirmation of this. There were no public comments. Lindquist moved, Berg seconded, to recommend approval of Application #2076 with conditions 1-4 as noted. Vote; Ayes 4, Nays 0. (#2) #2078 JENSEN HOMES, INC., 405 TONKAWA ROAD - PRELIMINARY SUBDIVISION - PUBLIC HEARING 7:40-8:11 P.M. The Certificate of Mailing and .Affidavit of Publication were noted. The Contractor, Mr. Jensen, was present. MINUTES OF THE ORONO PL.ANNING COMMISSION MEETING HELD ON OCTOBER 16, 1995 (#2 - #2078 Jensen Homes - Continued) Mabusth reported that the application is for a 2-lot subdivision of a 10 acre parcel. The north lot is 7+ acres and Lot 2 is 3 5 acres i -c pioperty is located within two zoning distrias, LRl A to the north at 2 acres, and LRIB to the south at I acre lots The lot lines encroach both districts and setbacks are subject to the respective zoning. The driveway serves a parcel to the west, the Knight property, which is located in the LR1B zoning district and is 3 5 acres in size, and could be tlirthcr subdivided. Mabusth located the MUSA line. The property located to the west is within the MUSA, and the subject property is located out of the MUSA The existing septic is non-conforming and will need to be replaced Statf has asked for two septic sites for the northern lot. All tour sites would be a mound-type septic system The issue of the driveway is a concern for this application according to Mabusth. Traditionally, Staff would ask for an 30' outlot for the shared driveway, but this is not a back loPfront lot configuration Another application under sketch plan review on this agenda involves a property to the sou: bwest of this property and proposes the v acation of Oak Street and Clyde Place roadways with Linden Avenue to remain. This vacation may have an impact on this particular application If the two rights ot way are to be vacated, how is the City to maintain public access to property to west ol subject property’ Existing driveway easement would not meet access standards for development of 3 lots. Mabusth reviewed various options for achieving access to western property, ail involving the subject property. Staff ” has been notified that Ber."ett would not be in favor of any changes nor of the granting of any more right-ot way for Linden Avenue Jensen said the applicant would also be opposed to the d .eway outlot The owner would have a problem dedicating land fi-om her property where the subject property would not receive a benefit and only a negative impact on a future building site Peterson asked how it would be viable to gain access to the property. Jensen said the applicant would propose access without a cul-de-sac encroaching the Bennett property. He does not wish to create a plat and give up any portion of the property. Jensen said connecting Linden with the existing easement would only serve the Knight property. No future subdivision is proposed and the applicant would like to do private plantings on the south property line Barry Knight said he does not understand the terms used and asked for clarification on what was an outlot and what platting suggested. Mabusth replied that an outlot would enable the shared access drive to be seen on a plat map where easements are not designated Both areas of driveway outlets and easement driveway are deducted from lot area. MINUTES OF THE ORONO PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING HELD ON OCTOBER 16. 1995 (#2 - i#2078 Jensen Homes - Continued) Mabusth asked Jensen how wide is the easement shown on the deed Jensen said the width of the easement was not described to his recollection, only the width of the road. Knicht said it was his impression that a dimension was listed, but not the 30’ spoken ot. Jenin clarified that with an outlot Bennen would retain ownership and and Knight’s easement would be within that outlot The easement would also be excluded tfom the buildable ar? - Knight inquired about setbacks from the outlot, Mabusth said the setback would probably be 10’ and noted that 35’ would be the setback if it was a private or public road. Jensen noted that there are only two viable drainfield options and was concerned with any alternate site Hawn commented if the vacation was to the benefit of the three applicants of #2077. why not have any access on the properties of that application instead ot on the Bennett property Mabusth said the Planning Commission could ask for the exact dimensions ot easement, and if the Planning Commission felt it would be unfair to take an easement from Bennett that should be stated in your recommendation. Peterson asked why Bennett would be enposed to the outlot configuration if it serv es no hardship to either setbacks or drainfield and is two independently owned parcels and serves the Knight property Mabusth >aid it would affect the property as the side setback would be measured from the north lot line if the outlot as opposed to the south lot of proposed lot 2 There is no setback from an easement drive. Mark Gronberg said the registered survey shows two tracts. The outlot would just tngger the driveway serving two properties. He noted that it was always designated a driveway and would not result in any change. Mabusth asked the Planning Commission if they would aUow the area in question for outlot designation to remain as a driveway easement. Mabusth said Kni^t wants to keep the driveway easement, but this easement could never serve a future division of the Knight property Lindquist commented that the solution does not aid the Bennett property. Lind^ist said the applicant is asking whether the propeny can be subdivided. He asked if the City can forc^ an outlot or leave as an easement. Mabusth said the area can be left as an easement, u.ut the area of the easement must be excluded from lot area. Lindquist suggested leaving the area as an easement. There were no public comments. MINUTES OF THE ORONO PLANNING CONLMISSION MEETING HELD ON OCTOBER 16, 1995 (#2 - #2078 Jensen Homes - Continued) Mabusth commented that Statf would want the easement defined on the plat. It was again noted it was unclear how much area was designated on the abstract Gronberg suggested looking at the traveled road. Lindquist said designation of the number of feet for the easement would be required Knight suggested the application be tabled until all parties involved in the two applications can meet and discuss a solution satisfactory to all parties Schroeder suggested tabling the application until the facts of the later application were made known Jensen asked if the original deed does not specify an easement width, if it could be ap^oved subject to the survey by Gronberg of the roadway It was noted that the easement and roadway need to be designated as the numbers may difter. There was also concern if the septic site was in the easement Jensen noted the easement would only benefit Knight and not the general puolic He also asked if the approval could be based on what the deed shows as the easement Peterson said without knowing the size of the easement, the Planning Commission would need to table the application. Lindquist said the Commission also needed to gain inlbrmaiicn on the other properties in question. Schroeder moved, Lindquist seconded, to table Application #2078 subject to determining the size of the easement and the knowledge of the other affected application. Knight commented that he would also like to hear the facts of the other application and suggested that application be tabled also. Mabusu splied that Application #2077 is a sketch plan review only and no motion would be needed. Vote; Ayes 5, Nays 0. (#3) #2031 BRUCE R. KELLY, 2340 FOX STREET - PRELIMINARY SUBDIVISION - CONTINUATION OF PUBLIC HEARING 7:04-7:09 P.M. The Applicants were present. Mabusth reported that the application is for a division of two lots of a 6 acre homestead parcel. The preliminary survey has been completed Principal and alternate septic sites have also been determined for each lot. The future owner of the 4 acre lot will need to understand the impact of an easement on lot area The existing driveway location can be shared by the east lot. No variances would be required. There were no public comments. MINUTES OF THE ORONO PLANNING CO\L\nSSION MEETING HELD ON OCTOBER 16, 1995 (#3 - #2031 Bruce Kelly - Continued) Peterson asked Kelly if he understood the Staff recommendation and the need for P^k D^ication lee on the new lot and a drainage easement. Kelly said he was not tamiliar with these requirements and was concerned with the process. He asked that the application be approved and moved forward He did not wish to discuss the application further. Lindquist moved, Berg seconded, to recommend approval ot Application #2031 with conditions 1-4 as noted. Vote; .Ayes 4. Nays 0, Abstain 1, Schroeder, who was not present for the entire discussion. (#4J #2041 PHIL AxND DARCY OTTO, 4116 HIGHWOOD ROAD - AFTER-THE FACT CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT - CONTINUATION OF PUBLIC h£1 aR1NG 8;II-«:I9P.M. The applicants were present. Mabusth reported that the application was an after-the-fact application for excavation ot street yard which followed a recent variance application. The current application involves the creation of an additional curb cut, two tiers of retaining walls, and placement of approximately 150 to 200 cubic yards of fill in east side yard and rear. Mr. Sauer, a neighbor to the east, voiced concern with the filling and any impact runoff would have on his property where the drainage flows into. The application was tabled to gain the City Engineer's input on the drainage issue. Mabusth said Cook reported that there was no perceivable impact from the filling Mr. Sauer was notified and asked to attend this meeting if he had any further concern. Sauer was not in attendance Mabusth said a 3 ; 1 slope was impossible to obtain for the east side yard. The yard hM been graded at a 2:1 slope and planted with crown vetch. A special seeding and erosion blanket will be laid to hold the dirt in place until the plantings take hold. Mabusth said a catch basin was originally discussed. There is now drain tile in place which will collect the runoff from road into a trench, then flows underground and directed out to the rear yard Staff recommends approval with the City Engineer to reinspect when 1) final grading is completed before stormwater improvements are installed and 2) after seeding. The Applicant ncaed that alot of detail has been reviewed with the Engineer. Mabusth informed the applicant that it was important that the Engineer is called in to reinspea at these cntical times. MINUTES OF THE ORONO PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING HELD ON OCTOBER 16. 1995 (#4 - #2041 Phil and Darcy Otto - Continued) Schrocder inquired and received conlirmation that Sauer had no further objections. Otto said he has not spoken with Sauer since the last meeting The owner to the east, according to Otto, has given his approval of the plan as he has not responded to Staffs letter Lindquist asked if the applicant was still parking his boat on the curb cut The applicant said he stores the boat off site. There were no public comments. Lii^uist moved. Berg seconded, to approve .Application #2041 for w after-the-fact conditional use permit with Staff recommendations 1-4 and final grading approved by the Ci? Engineer The owner is to arrange for inspections by the City Engineer before seeding and after seeding. Vote Ayes 5, Nays 0. (#5) #2056 .MICHAEL AND BARBARA WIGLEY, 1035 TONKAWA ROAD - VARIANCE/CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT - CONTINUATION OF PUBLIC HEARLNG 8;19-S:28 P.M. The applicants were represented by landscaper, .Matt Laue. Gaffron reported that the proposal has been revised. The initial proposal was for a retaining wall located at the base of the slope wnth fill behind it. Another boulder wall was to be constructed at the top of the hill with grading and fill to flatten out the area. The property has a steep bank to the lakeshore The house on the property is fairly new. There are presently 3 ; 1 and 2 1 slopes The applicants are concerned with poison ivy on the slopes. Gaflron reported that the Planning Commission has previously rejected the idea of grading to eUminate the poison ivy Planning Commission suggested elimination of the lower boulder wall Gaffi-on asked Laue about the drain tile found on the property. Laue said it begins on the upper stair to the front and ewts by a tree. He sees no ftmetion for the tile and feels grading above the slope will do a better job m eliminating erosion. .Another issue of concern was with the portion of the 0-75' area lined with fabric covered by mulch Gaflron said this was hardcover but there may be a good reason for the matenal to exist. There are no hardcover calculations for the property If approval is recommended, hardcover calculattions wiU be needed for the existing and proposed walls and fabric. The only other e.xisting hardcover in the 0-75' is the stairs and lops of boulders MINUTES OF THE ORONO PL.ANNING CONLMISSION MEETING HELD ON OCTOBER 16. 1995 #5 - #2056 Michael and Barbara Wigley - Continued) Gafiiron said if the Planning Commission was in favor ot the revision, clarification should be prov ided on what walls could be erected and what fill or grading could be done. The applicant was notified that it was not the intent of the Commission to recommend any grading in the slope area containing poison ivy Lindquist said he w as concerned with hardcover in the 0-75’ but was in fav or of the walls near the house. Peterson said he did not recommend any retaining wall at the bottom of the hill and was undecided on recommending the boulder wall at the top of the hill He understood the applicant's attempt in addressing concerns of the property. .Although he was not in favor of the retaining walls, he would give his approval tor their construction. Laue commented that the tabric was only in the area behind the retaining wall It is his intent to remove the fabric as the mulch will accomplish the same purpose. Schroeder moved, Lindquist seconded, to recommend approval limited to the boulder wall at the top of the hill only due to erosion problems The approv al is subject to the removal of the fabric throughout the property No grading is allowed down to the shore line. Hawn inquired if all of the plantings as originally described would still occur. Laue said the plantings as designed will be planted. He was unsure of what plantings would be done on the slopes. Peterson emphasized that while planting on the slope was okay, no grading could be done Laue suggested, when asked, that the poison ivy be removed by leather gloved hands during cold weather Vote: Ayes 5, Nays 0. (#6) #2059 MINNEHAHA CREEK WATERSHED DISTRICT, 1485 SIXTH AVENUE NORTH - VARIANCES/CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT (CONTINUED TO NOVEMBER 20TH MEETING) Peterson moved, Lindquist seconded, to table Application #2059 per the request of the Minnehaha Creek Watershed District.

NUNirreS OF THE ORONO PLANNING CONPvlISSION MEETING HELD ON OCTOBER 16. 1995 - #2061 Ame Wasbcrg - Continued) Mabusth reported that the new owners of the property have filed to renew the original variance application Peterson asked Mr Wasberg why he w'ould wish to do so Wasberg said he purchased the house in February of 1995 and wants to refurbish the house. In or(^ to do so, it would require a variance This renewal would allow* him time to dev elop apian Mabusth noted that the applicant has removed all of underliner hardcover on the property. It was noted that the 2-story improvement was not to encroach the lagoon any further than existing structures The approval included a deck The applicant has advised that they would like to remove the existing driveway at North Shore Drive and relocate a new access at the existing driveway to the south. They would plant evergreens along North Shore Drive to provide a landscape buffer to the noise and activities on the county road. M^sth further added that the applicant's plan was improvements to the home would not be as ambitious as that of the previous owner. Schroeder moved, Hawn seconded, to approve Application #2061 because it had been approved in the past. Even if changes were made, Schroeder noted the changes would be to the better There were no public comments Vote: Ayes 5, Nays 0. (#8) #2065 MR & MRS. SAMUEL MARFIELD. 2455 SCOTCH PINE LANE/MR & MRS. H. DOUGLAS HILL, 2425 DOUGLAS PINE LANEAVILLUM TOLES, 2435 SCOTCH PINE LANE - VACATION OF SCOTCH PINE LANE, VACATION OF DRAINAGE AND UTILITY EASEMENTS, PRELIMINARY SUBDIVISION (REPLAT) - CONTINUATION OF PUBLIC HEARING 8:31-8:58 P.M, The Applicants were present. 8 MINUTES OF THE ORONO PL.ANNTNG COMMISSION MEETING HELD ON OCTOBER 16. 1995 (#8 - #2065 Scotch Pine Lane - Continued) Galfron reported that at the last meeting of the Planning Commission, the application was discussed and tabled awaiting rcNiew by the Long Lake Fire Department regarding how^ the vacation of Scotch Pine would affect the ability of the fire department in fighting a tire on these properties New exhibits as part of this package include a review of the City s policy and philosophy regarding public roads, the BRW Fire Protection review ot the traffic and environmental conditions, and a revised preliminary plat. The .Martields and Hills would share a dnvevvay from the existing cul-de-sac with each party increasing the size of their parcels with the vacation of the road The vacation and replat would enable the Hills to have a continuous piece of property to the lake Mr Toles w ould access his residence through a new driveway from CoRd 51 There would occur some narrowing of the driveway serving the Marfields and Hills sdke Brown of the Long Lake Fire Department was in attendance and reported on the concerns of the fire department Brown said the department requires a certain road width to aUow for staging for trucks to get past each other The roadway also needs to be able to handle 40,000 lbs of equipment Brown said with the street as it is, there is room for the fire department to operate. The trucks would not be able to access the portion ot the driveway to the Toles residence The Hill property with dnvevvay as proposed will allow the street to remain the same with the entry area narrower The .Martields, while asking to narrow their driveway entrance, have been asked by the fire department to maintain the road at a wider width, which will enable fire trucks and their RV to gain access to the house The fire department would like the driveway to the Toles residence to be wide enough to enable personnel to walk around the area Brown said he would need a road width of 16’ able to support a weight of 40,000-50,000 lbs. This would be asking more than required by the City, and he would accept the same as a City street. The City code requires a road to handle 46,000 lbs. Brown noted that this is the first time the fire department has been asked what needs they have for a private driveway. Peterson asked Brown, if he had a choice, would he keep the road as it now exists Brown said he is not in favor of cul-de-sacs as the residence becomes cut off once the equipment is set up. The fire department would benefit from gaining a wider road, and he is in approval of eliminating the cul-de-sac and the proposal as revised. Hill noted that the revision mvolves maintaining some of the driveway blacktop. Gaffron reported that besides the fire issue, there is the issue of subdivision performance standards The properties contain three building sites and access to the lake. By today's standards, three lots in a rural zone require a private road Gaffron said he is concerned with moving standards backwards with approval ot this application. The applicants have provided a response on why they feel the proposal is appropriate and unique to the surroundings. MINUTES OF THE ORONO PL.ANTsfTNG CONLMISSION MEETING HELD ON OCTOBER 16, 1995 (#8 - #2065 Scotch Pine Lane - Continued) Martield read these findings into the minutes and are part of this package. He noted that Scotch Pine is the one 3-iot cul-de-sac that drains into the lakeshorc, and it has been a 20- year elfort to gain the grass and trees back to the property Marfield said this vvas the only 3-lot cul-de-sac with one lot in two parts divided by a road Due to its location, the public is attracted to the road in order to gain access to the lake, yet there is none Martield said all three applicants are supportive of the proposal He also noted that other properties in the area have more than one driveway access, where these properties have only the one access Gaffron said another standard issue is with 3 lots currently abuting a public road and now Msu^eld's property will abut only an outlet. Gafiron said this creates a back lot configuration He also noted the lot size being substandard with 1 acre lots in 2 zoiRng acre Easements are also an issue The existing utility easements would need rededication if changed A letter from Minnegasco asks if Scotch Pine is vacated, an easement for their facilities should be granted over the existing roadway NSP is not m favor of the proposal, but Gaflron is of the opinion that the easement could be worked out with NSP. Gafiron noted that a drainage plan has been provided, but it has not been reviewed as ot yet by the City Engineer. A catch basin would be eliminated and runoff would flow over land as area is revened back to grass. Engineer's review would be required prior to presentation to the Council. Gaflron said the neighbors to the east, the Levy's, ask for a 15' setback for the new driveway to the Toles property Gaffron said this was not a code requirement except that no grading is normally allowed within 5' of the lot line Toles said he would honor this request. Gaffron voiced concern over the possibility of setting a precedent by approving a proposal which is in contrast to what is being currently asked of other subdivisions. Gaflron noted that CoRd 51 is defined in the Comprehensive Plan as a parkway, which functions as a collector. The code for collector roads does not require new lots to use an internal access, but the comprehensive plan suggests that this be done when it is possible. Gaflron indicated the Planning Commission should make specific findings of uniqueness if they approved the proposal. MINUTES OF THE ORONO PL ANNING COMMISSION MEETING HELD ON OCTOBER I 1995 (?8 - »2065 Scotch Pine Lane - Continued) Peterson said he was in favor of retaining a road and utilitv' easement for possible future needs of the City He asked what opinion others had if approval for the proposal was given while maintaining the easement tor the cul-de-sac Toles said the parties ot the application would need to discuss the matter, but he v as of the opinion that if the cul-de- sac was turned back to grass, no one would care to change it again to blacktop in the future Martield said he was worried that another governmental body would make the change once again to blacktop in t^e future, and he would be uncomlortable with maintaining the easement after working so hard to eliminate it. Schroeder asked Staff if these properties w ere a possible candidate for a loop road but was told by Gaffron no Schroeder acknowledged the uniqueness of these properties and not^ the undesirability of a cul-de-sac except for fire department use, which is disputable. There were no public comments Schroeder moved, Hawn seconded, to approve Application #2065 as revised for the removal of the cul-de-sac and addition of a driveway from the Toles residence to CoRd 51 with a 15' side setback for reasons stated in the memos, specifically, reduction in hardcover, result of fire depanment review which showed no increased risk, with approval by Mn/DOT for additional curb cut, approval for vacation of Scotch Pine with conditions as noted, approval of replat, and rededication ot utility easements. Vote. Ayes 4, Nays I, Peterson, for reasons of sening a precedent and desire for maintaining the cul-de-sac easement for future access if needed. (#9) #2066 ROBERT AND IRIS WAADE, 1487 SHORELINE DRIVE - VARIANCES - CONTINUATION OF PUBLIC HEARING 8:58-9:11 P.>L The Applicants were present. Gafiron reponed that the application was before the Commission at the last meeting for a number of variances to remodel and build an addition to the residence on Shoreline Drive. The lot is small and does not lend itself for rebuilding The house and garage currently has a carport and is covered with a flat roof. The original proposal was for a second story with a 10:12 pitch roof From the lake side, the house was proposed at a ground-to-pcak height of 46’ but technically did meet the code height limit. The Planning Commission’s earlier review concluded that the proposal was too ambitious for the lot. MINUTES OF THE ORONO PL.XNNTNG COMMISSION MEETING HELD ON OCTOBER 16, 1995 (#9 - =2066 Robert and Ins Waade - Continued) Gaflfron said the revised proposal calls tor hardcover removal with cutting back the driveway area. The revision would alter the foot print area with the addition of a garage stall and an entryway area. The sharp comers would be cut otf and an area would be bumped out There would be no second story Some additional height would be gained from a 10 12 pitch roof over the entire struaure The residence w ould encroach past the average lakeshore setback \ side setback variance would be required as the garage would be located within the 30’ setback. The new setback is proposed at 16’ where it now exists at 8', The bump out is located at 19’ from the side lot line. The entry is within the 0-75’ zone. The house would encroach 13’ past the average setback with the new roof. Gaffron noted that the house located to the north of this property is on low topography and would not be affected by this proposal. The house to the south has minimum view ov% applicant’s house now and would no longer have any view the lake with this proposal. Gaffron reported that the lot coverage with this proposal would be at 15.37% where 15% is allowed. Hardcover in the 0-75’ zone exists at 39 18® o and is proposed at 36.14%. 25®/o hardcover is allowed in the 75-250’ zone and exists at 15.96% and would be decreased to 9 25“/o 1 he hardcover for the driveway portion serving the neighbor is not included in the calculations. No height variance would be required with the new roof proposed at a ground-to-peak height of 35.8’. The applicant said it was his desire to minimize the impact of the house on the property and neighborhood while still gaining a house up to today's standards. Hawn inquired what would become of the broken asphalt on the property near the shoreline. Waade said it will be removed and replaced witn pea rock, which he understands to be non-hardcover. Lindquist asked about the open area between the house and garage. This would be expanded for the master bedroom. When inquiring about the size of the garage, Lindquist was told the garage would be increased to a 3 -stall from its present 2-stall configuration. Schroeder was concerned with reduction of rock/plastichardcover in the 0-75’. Gaffron said the entryway area included rock and plastic which was not noted in the calculations. It was noted that the 4 ’ overhang would be eliminated and replaced with 1-1/2' overhang, which has not been figured into the calculations as eaves are not defined in the code as whether they are actual hardcover. Hawn gave her support of the proposal noting the applicant's diligence in keeping additional hardcover to a minimum while gaining the desirco space P.Ui f.llflil* ra»in*j ^raiiTt mtWiUtJ urn [•mtnflH RTinmri'j ftlfliW* rtT^^i •ICtJtJ rtwi*P.lirinI •KtltliilK mm%i fti r«ithitc»rtifVt r*7;T ^ TuimwilJ L«' ^lilEIIil^[fll Uw)C«J rtHK« % MINUTES OF THE ORONO PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING HELD ON OCTOBER 16, 1995 (#10 - #2074 John and Kristen Gehring - Continued) It has been suggested by Staff that a retention area be created to hold runnoff to eliminate the possibility of flooding. Spot elevations will be provided by Gehring. The portion of the garage area which is in the flood plain will require a matching excavation at the same area to offset the encroachment Mabusth said that the setback requirements for the garage will be met. There is an excess of hardcover in the 0-75’ zone of 24-®'o. The hardcover limit will be met in the 75-250' zone. No removal of hardcover is proposed within the 0-75’ setback zone. A shed on the property will be removed. Lindquist asked what the elevations were, and where the pond would be built. Mabusth said the flood plain is at 931.5’, and the garage would be located between 931.5 and 931'. Th^Ppond would be located on the shared lot line between the Gehring and Palm properties Schroeder asked if both parties were in agreement on the building of the pond. Gehring said he met with Palm and another neighbor. Mrs Traynor, who has concerns with drainage in the neigt.torhood. A make-shift pond was built this summer by installing a pipe from under the Gehring and Palm property. It was tested and found to be a workable solution. The grading proposal suggests using a pipe for drainage to flow into and lead to a neighborhood swale. The pipe tested was 4-6" wide. Mabusth commented that the engineering plan would need to be reviewed by the City Engineer and the MCWD. Schroeder asked what the normal size is of a 2-car garage. Mabusth said it is usually 24’x24'. Lindquist noted that the proposal is for a 3-car garage. Schroeder asked the applicants if they had considered building a smaller garage with the amount of hardcover that is located in the 0-75’ zone. Gehring responded that the size of the garage enables him to keep all equipment inside, such as a trailer, instead of sitting out on the property. It is also his opinion that a 3-car garage is standard today. Gehring said the driveway has been minimized. He noted that the shed is to be removed, and no hardcover will exist between the garage and the house. Peterson informed the applicant that approval of the garage would affect any future ciuuiges to the property He noted that many older homes are being removed and new homes built. If this were the case on this property with the larger garage and the hardcover issue, the applicant would have difficulty in gaining approval for a larger house. The applicant responded that if a new house were to be built, it would be the same size and the 15% lot coverage lintitation would be considered. He noted that there is no variance required at this time for lot coverage. MINUTES OF THE ORONO PLANTMIN'G COMMISSION MEETING HELD ON OCTOBER 16, 1995 (#10 - #2074 John and Kristen Gehring - Continued) Schroeder noted that the lot coverage is at 15% now. He is concerned with intensification of the structures on the property. Schroeder said the applicant may wish to consider moving the structures back on the lot and noted that the 3-car garage is limiting the applicant for any future building. Schroeder commented that many people feel a 2-car garage is a right in Minnesota but was not convinced that a 3-car garage was the standard. Berg commented that a 3-car garage was becoming the normal size tor a garage. The applicant responded that the size difference between a 2-car and a 3-car garage is minimal. Hawn noted that keeping utility vehicles within a garage is a good idea. Peterson asked for the Commission to look at the application in two parts with the first issue being the retaining wall Tofn Palm, owner of the property to the north of the applicant, commented that the temporarv pipe used to alleviate pooling of water was 4" in size. A ditch was dug which moved the water toward the larger swale. It was determined that there were no problems with this solution as the pipe was found to handle a 6" rain with no standing water. Palm saw no problem with recreating the pipe as a permanent solution. He noted it was to his benefit to see that the water has a place to go. Lindquist said he had no problem with the retaining wall. He did note that ice will eventually take the wall out, which would not occur if rip rap was used. Peterson noted that the Engineer did say it was only a temporary solution. The applicant commented that a neighboring property has a similar waU, which has lasted for the past 5 years with no problem. He noted maintenance may be required and is aU right with that. Lindquist asked how far back the wall would be built. Mabusth said there is a natural sand beach, and the wall would be 6’ from the normal shoreline. Schroeder asked if it should be a concern with the Planning Commissioners if the solution was not permanent if the applicant was in favor of the proposal. Peterson said the area could be left natural. He understood that while the waU works for the neighbor, the Planning Commission needs to rely on the expertise of the City Engineer. He commented that the wall could cause further problems but was not troubled with the installation of the wall. Schroeder noted that the appUcant has an incentive to keep the wall in good repair to save the beach area. MIMJTES OF THE ORONO PLANNING COMMISSION NffiETING HELD ON OCTOBER 16. 1995 (#10 - »2074 John and Kristen Gehring - Continued) Hawn moved, Schroeder seconded, to recommend approval of the retainmg wall with Staff recommendations Vote; .Ayes 5, Nays 0. As for the garage, Lindquist asked if the Comnussion w as able to approve a garage without understanding where the pond would be located Peterson said he had the same concern Mabusth said this was a recent issue. Statfis unable to issue a permit without seeing an approved grading plan by the Corp of Engineers and the MCVM). The applicant said he was told by the MCWD that preliminary approval would be requir^ from the City before the MC\VD would look at the issue Gehring asked it the City would approve the application for the garage with the condition that the required permits were received from the Corp of Engineers and the .MCWD Mabusth said she was not colhfonable with bringing the application before the Council with questions unanswCT^. The applicant said it was his plan to build the garage this tall. Schroeder commented that the City Engineer would need to approve the drainage plans. Peterson said the Council would not approve the garage without the permits in hand from the Corp of Engineers an the MCWD. The applicant noted that the meeting of the MCWD was scheduled for October 9, and the Council meeting was scheduled for Oaober 13. Mabusth questioned whether Palm would need to be jointly involved with the creation of the pond. Palm said it was his understanding that his pan would be only where the pipe is located. Mabusth said the retaining pond would possibly be located on the Palm property too. Palm said he was unsure of this and thought the pipe would carry the drainage to the swale on his property. Peterson noted that the solution may be a swale, but it was possible that a swale may not be enough, and a pond would be required. Lindquist was of the opinion that the pond should be a joint proposal by both Gehring and Palm. Mabusth noted that Staff will be working with both parties on storm water management. Lindquist asked if conceptual approval could be granted. Mabusth said matching retention areas on the property would be required to compensate for the flood plain. Schroeder said if Staff could continue to work with the appUcation, was the Commission and Staff comfortable with turning the proposal over to the City Engineer in this form. Peterson voiced some concern with the size of the structure. Mabusth clarified that it was not an oversized structure and did meet the required setbacks. The excess hardcover is m the 0-75' zone and not in the 75-250' zone. Lindquist moved, Hawn seconded, to approve the constmaion of the 3-car garage with the understanding that the application not proceed to CouncU until it has been approved by the City's Public Works Direaor and City Engineer, the iMCWD, and the Corp of Engineers. MINUTES OF THE ORONO PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING HELD ON OCTOBER 16, 1995 ("10 - #2074 John and Kristen Gehring - Continued) Schroeder asked who sets the code for the flood plain areas. Mabusth reported that is is a federal flood plain regulation Lindquist continued that the application may involve the Palm property Mabusth said Palm may need to extend an easement to the City. Paim said he would be in agreement to this as he would like to solve the issue together notii^ the historic drainage problems in the area Vote: Ayes 5, Nays 0. (#11) #2075 HOWARD R. ALTON, HI, 1635 CONCORDIA STREET - CONDITIONAL USE PERMITA^ARIANCE - PUBLIC HEARLNG 9:15-9:18 P.M. The Certificate of Mailing and Affidavit of Publication were noted. The Applicant was present. Mabusth reported that the application is for a conditional use permit and variance to allow alteration of 17 cubic yards within the 90 lineal foot section of the shoreline. Ice movement has created erosion problems for the sand bank ridge. The applicant proposes to restore the bank to a 3:1 slope in order to grow grass. Gustafson has reviewed the application and said it was the best solution Richter of the DNR also noted his approval and the need for no plantings. This proposal is a natural approach for solution to erosion, and the applicant was commended for taking this aproach. Mabusth said that while the City Engineer has approved the proposal, he noted if the bank is to retain a minimum 3:1, the bank would have to be cut back 5-8 and would result in the removal of about 34 cubic yards instead of 17. The applicant would then place 8 cubic yards of clean soil to be covered with sod. The applicant noted his preference for this change. Peterson moved, Berg seconded, to approve Application #2075 with Staff recommendations 1-4. Vote: Ayes 5, Nays 0. (#12) #2079 RICK PERRY, 440 WILLOW DRIVE SOUTH - VARIANCES - PUBLIC HEARING 9:18-9:30 P.M. The Certificate of Mailing and Affidavit of Publication were noted. The Applicant was present. MINLTES OF THE ORONO PLANNING COMVUSSION MEETING HELD ON OCTOBER 16, 1995 (#12 - #2079 Rick PeiT>’ - Continued) Mabusth reported that the property is located on the east side of Willow. The applicant had previously received approval for a setback variance for a garage located in front ot the principal structure. It did not meet the current standards but was approved at a 5' side setback The City did not address the need for a variance with garage placed in front ot the principal structure. The existing garage was placed 6.4' from the side lot line. W'ith the addition, the garage becomes an oversized structure, the structure is now subject to more restrictive area and setback standards The 62 acre parcel is allowed 1000 s t. of oversized accessory structure. The proposed garage would require an area variance ot 77 s.f or 7 7®'o. The structure would now require a setback of 30* and is proposed at 6.4*. Mabusth noted that the same hardships of the earlier application still hold true. There are ste^ topographies on the lot The narrow lot limits access to rear of residence The only geftle sloped areas are in rear yard where septic is located, and this area is needed for future septic need -. Peterson noted the dimensions of the oversize structure and lot coverage increasing from 13.5% to 18.1% He asked the applicant why four additional garage stalls were needed Perrv said the stalls would be used for his collector cars. Mabusth noted that when the detached garage was approved, the applicant has stated he was going to convert the original garage space to living space. Perry said he did not do so as he and his wife did not have as many children as they had previously planned. He acknowledged that the proposal would increase his garage space to 6 stalls. Schroeder asked if the applicant was going to use the space for a business. Perry said no. Schroeder asked where he now places the vehicles. The applicant said 3 cars are in the tuck-under garage, one is being restored, and h^kes and the like are sitting outside of the detached garage. There were no public comments. Peterson said he was personally opposed to the proposal as it was creating a huge oversize structure for a small lot. Lindquist agreed that this would be too much structure. The applicant asked if he built a structure keeping within the 1000 s.f allowable, if this would be allowed and no variances needed. Mabusth said side setback variance would still be required. .Any structure placed in front of the principal structure requires a variance. The applicant felt that the garage would be a better alternative than leaving materials stored outside. Mabusth noted that there was alot of material outside now. The applicant said it was his desire to plant evergreen trees to hide the structure from view as well as installing a hip roof to lower the profile of the house. Mabusth asked the applicant about the power pole. Perry said he spoke with NSP, who said they would move the pole. MINUTES OF THE ORONO PL.ANNING COMNDSSION MEETING HELD ON OCTOBER 16, 1995 (#12 - #2079 Rick Perry - Continued) Hawn said she was of the opinion that 6 staUs ot garage space was excessive with stalls being the norm. Lindquist moved. Hawn seconded, to deny Application #2079 due to excessive lot coverage for the size of the lot. V'ote: Ayes Nays 0 (#13) #2080 GREG AND DANA KELLENBERGER. 4045 WATERTOWN ROAD - VARIANCES - PUBLIC HEARING 9:30-9:40 P.M. The Certificate of Mailing and Affidavit of Publication were noted. The Applicants were present. Mabusth reported that the applicants have two development plans tor additions to their residence located in the 5-acre zoning district. The existing house is located in a substandard location at 51’ where 100' is required for the front/street setback. The 24 ’x24 ’ detached garage shown as Option A would require a street setback. Option B involves an attached garage to the residence requiring a 50' side setback and is proposed at 26. The front/street setback from Watenown Road would be at 52'. The existing driveway at east lot line can be saved and used to approach the back yard. A second curb cut further to the west has been approved by John Gerhardson. Option A would place a driveway very close to the septic site. The Option B for an attached garage would allow access to the rear of the property along east side. Staff recommends Option B. Peterson asked the applicant which option he prefers. The applicant prefers Option B as it gives them a spot for a patio to the rear ot the residence. Peterson suggested the Commission review Option B for the attached garage. It was noted that the deck does not exist on Option B but the covered porch remains. The two-story home would remain but the flat roof addition with a tuck-under garage would be removed and rebuilt in same location. The applicant commented that they have horses and would prefer to keep the existing driveway to use for the horse trailer as it is a safer route to the west being located on a higher portion of the roadway. Mabusth said Gerhardson would need to approve maintaining the two accesses. There were no public confimcnts. Lindquist moved, Schroeder seconded, to approve Application #2080 for Option B for front/street setback vanance of 48 ’ and side setback variance of 24* for an attached garage. If two driveways are to be maintained, they would need the approval of Gerhardson. Vote; Ayes 5, Nays 0. MINUTES OF THE ORONO PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING HELD ON OCTOBER 16. 1995 (#14) #2081 PATRICK .\>D NANCY WALSH, 1390 REST POINT ROAD - VARIANCES - PUBLIC HEARING 9:40-9:58 P.M. The Certificate of Mailing and Affidavit of Publication were noted. Mr. Walsh was present Mabusth said that she and Mr. Walsh met today and w ent over Staff concerns. The proposal at this time is amended from that in the packet as a result of this meeting. The proposal is for two single story additions at the sides of the residence consisting of a mud room/kitchen with eating area, an expanded master bedroom with a walk-in closet and expanded bedroom on the second story, which would encroach the average lakeshore setback by 9’ and encroach the 75’ line by 9' The upper lev-el above the garage would be for a recreation room or bedrom located 20 ’ from the street lot line and require a street variance because of the intensification The hardcover in the 0-75' zone exists at 11.9*/'o and proposed at same percentage. Hardcover in the 75-250’ zone e.xists at 40.2% and proposed at 56 3% for an increase of 774 5 s f of 16%. The stoop will be roofed under the proposal and. thereby, included in the structural coverage. The views and plans were shown to the Commission members The structural coverage is proposed at 20.1% and with stoop, adjusted at 21.4%. The amended proposal reduces the master bedroom by 44 s.f, eliminates the 80 s.f mudroom, reduces the 14 s f entry, shows removal of 91.75 s.f. of plastic, and removal of deck structure with fencing and planter with plastic. The amended calculations for hardcover with 75-250' area existing at 41%, originally proposed at 56.3%, is amended at 51.5% or a 11.2% increase. The 75-250' hardcover variance would be reduced by 4.8%. Lindquist asked if there was any change in the 0-75* zone. Mabusth said there was none and was same as originally proposed at 11.9%. All new improvements are in the 75-250* zone. The amended hardcover variance in this zone would be reduced to 26.5%. Mr. Walsh said he realized the lot was small but so was the house. Any expansion would require a variance. The house is at 800 s.f with a 3/4 bath, no utility room, and no kitchen eating space. The house is centered on the lot and is a cape code style wnth a low profile. The additions to each side would balance off the house. The roof on the garage would give the house a higher profile. The proposal is to give the residents more living space. The entry is to aid entry from an icy area. Walsh acknowledged to Schroeder that they have lived in the house for 17 years. There were no public comments. NUxVUTES OF THE ORONO PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING HELD ON OCTOBER 16, 1995 (#14 - #2081 Patrick and Nancy Walsh - Continued) Peterson told Walsh he understood the need for improvements but noted the substandard lot by the lakeshore. The applicant said that is why they have tried to keep the improvements to a minimum. Peterson said he would not approve any improvements in the 0-75' and noted all improvements were to be made in the 75-250' zone. Schroeder commented that the lot coverage would increase from 15% to 19.9%. He acknowledged that the additions were not large but that the lot was so small. Hawn said she was undecided She noted the appeal in filling out the rectangle of the house but questioned whether any improvements should be allowed that increase the size of the residence. Hawn was concerned that paring down the mud room seemed silly. Mabusth said that the applicant read the Staff memo and came in on his own volition to distuss changes Lindquist said he had mixed feelings but noted the addition was minimal. Lindquist moved, Peterson seconded, to approve Application #2081 as amended. Vote: .Ayes 3, Peterson, Hawn, Lindquist, .Nays, 2, Berg, Schroeder, both commenting that it was too small a lot to consider any additions. SKETCH PLAN REVIEW (#15) #2077 CHARLES W. HOMMEYER, JEFFREY A. BOWEN, KENNETH B. HOLLAND, 4119/4127/4125 OAK STREET - REPLAT AND VACATION OF PUBLIC ROADS AND DRAINAGE EASEMENT The Applicants were present. Mabusth reported that the sketch plan review is for a replat of 15 lots and the vacation of Clyde Place, Park Ave., and the western section of Oak Street. The replat will create 3 lots. Lots 1 and 2 would share access from Linden Avenue. Lot 3 would use the existing driveway extending from Oak Street. 4111 Oak Street is served from the same driveway. Oak Street is maintained by the City to Oak and Linden intersection, the western end of Oak Street serves 4 properties and is maintained by property owner. With the replat, access for two lots, 4111 and 4119 Oak Street, will be via the driveway outlot. Access to the steep ravine area will be retained via a platted 15 alleyway. Staff questions whether the City should retain a walkway easement from the east to the ravine. MINUTES OF THE ORONO PL.XNNING CONLMISSION MEETING HELD ON OCTOBER 16, 1995 (#15 - #2077 Replat and Vacation - Continued) Mabusth reviewed the street vacation application. Parcel A. the Knight property', is located in the LR-IB zone within the MUSA. Knight could ask for sewering of this property as well as subdivide with as many as three lots If vacation ot the only two public accesses to this property is approved, the City must provide access to a public road. The City approved a lot area variance for Lots 1-4, Block 3 Mabusth said she met with the applicants and found that it may be possible to maintain public access from Linden but with the loss of one small lot. The applicant would give 50' so there would be no need to enter the Bennett property. If a cul-de-sac were to be built, there were several options as to the location Mabusth said Bennett indicated he would withdraw his application if required to dedicate a cul-de-sac. 20 additional teet will be sought for Linden Avenue. The Planning Commissioners had questioned whether a loop road would be an alternative in this subdivision. Mabusth said the applicants would lose the whole purpose for the replat if they went to that configuration It is the applicants plan tor Lots 1 and 2 to share access up to where Clyde Place is to be vacated and then branch off to their individual homes. Lot 3 would continue to gain access as it does now. Schroeder asked if the problem with Bennen giving any private dedication was that there was no benefit to his property. He suggested that Knight cut through the easement to give the benefit to Bennett. Knight responded that he did not wish to do so as the aesthetics of the driveway with driving through a canopy of trees would be lost. Schroeder said the alternate would be the cul-de-sac should Knight subdivide. Lindquist clarified that the City needs to provide an opportunity for public access to Knight Hawn asked if there was not a grandfathering of the existing easement for ingress and egress if Knight were to subdivide. Honmeyer said it would not meet the requirement for public roads. It was suggested that some land be purchased from Bennett. The applicants said they would desire for this to happen Knight noted that this is why he recommends no action taken until all parties can discuss the applications. Honmeyer said if land could be purcahsed from Bennett, Knight would have his access. 50' is needed for the access but the properties would be dealing with more intense use in the future. There is a possibile division of three lots on the Knight property. Honmeyer said he would wish to keep the back portion of the property as buildable. Lindquist acknowledged that access to the Knight property would need to be worked out. i 22 MINUTES OF THE ORONO PLAiNNING COMMISSION MEETING HELD ON OCTOBER 16, 1995 (^15 - ^2011 Replat and Vacation - Continued) Schroeder said it would be an incentive tor all to work out the details and suggested tabling the review to allow the panics involved to meet. Ken Rolland asked why the road needs to be a 50’ width, which he felt was not practical. Mabusth asked about the cul-de-sac and where it belongs on the roadway. Staff is coming from the opinion that the cul-de-sac should be located at the true end of the roadw ay to eliminate driveways coming off of the road in all directions. Rolland said if 50 were not needed, there would be more negotiating room. Peterson said the amount was not set but an idea on the what the width might be is necessary. Rolland emphasized how treacherous the ravine was and considered it a liability. Mabusth said it was appropriate to question whether the City would want to take an walking easJlnent to this ravine. Ann Honmey er asked how much property would be needed to be purchased from Bennett if he would sell. Peterson said Staff could give directions regarding the amount. Mabusth said the two other sketches could be reviewed not involving the cul-de-sac. Schroeder asked the members -o c'-i^.i^der bow that sketch would affect Bennetts subdivision plans. Peterson said he would prefer the cul-de-sac be located at the end of the development. Honmeyer added that may be no cul-de-sac is needed. Peterson said that was a possibility. The applicants will attempt to meet together with the applicants of #2078 to discuss both applications and how they would affect each other.
