COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT REPORT
16. LA23-000042 – 4731 NORTH SHORE DRIVE – VARIANCE
City Planner Nye said the applicant is proposing to enlarge an existing deck and patio underneath the
deck within a bluff setback. The entirety of the existing deck and patio are within the bluff impact zone
and do not meet the required bluff setback of 30 feet from top of bluff. The original deck was constructed
with the home in 2013. Several variances were granted through Resolution 6206 in order to construct the
home and deck due to the location of the bluff. The proposal is to square off the corner of the deck on the
bluff side and add more to the rear of the deck on the street side which is still in the bluff setback. The
western property line is shared with the City as it is an unimproved right-of-way. The City has recently
made improvements within the right-of-way for ravine stabilization. The property currently has several
improvements that were constructed without a permit by a previous homeowner. The improvements
include a lakeside deck and large patio. These unpermitted improvements are proposed to be removed by
the applicant. The proposed project will bring the total hardcover of the site into compliance from 28.4
percent to 24.5 percent. The proposal will decrease the existing bluff setback of the deck from 10 feet to 8
feet. Due to the sensitive nature of the bluff, staff is not supportive of the proposed deck and patio

expansion. The rules are in place to protect the bluff and prevent bluff failure, she said. While the
property is substandard in size and width, there is an existing deck and patio that allow for use and
enjoyment of the lot. On Aug. 21 the Planning Commission held a public hearing and no public
comments were made. The Commission noted the proposed project will bring the overall hardcover of the
lot into compliance and remove several unpermitted improvements within the bluff and lake yard. The
Commission thought the expansion was not unreasonable and voted 6 to 0 to approve the requested
variances as applied. The applicant is present, she said.
Benson asked about the amount of square footage that would be added to the deck.
Nye said the issue is part of the house and the deck is in the bluff setback. She said in-kind replacement
would be allowed.
Allison Houston, 4731 North Shore Drive, said one of the problems with the deck is that it is very small
for the size of the home and can barely fit a table for four people. She said they were naïve about City
regulations and this is the third or fourth plan trying to bring the plan closer to compliance. She said they
would hope to use some of the existing pillars and add some new ones. The planning commission thought
it would have minimal impact. They would be removing lakeside improvements. The topography is such
there is no other place to put a deck and the lot is very steep. The deck sits on the main level of the home
off the kitchen. The patio is below.
Johnson asked about impact to the bluff to remove the improvements near the lake and the impact of
bringing in equipment to do the work.
The engineer said the bluff would be stabilized.
Benson asked about any issues of bluff failure on this bluff area in the past.
Edwards said the City had recently done a ravine stabilization project on the City right-of-way portion.
He said the applicant’s lot was not on the part of the bluff where there has been problems.
Staff is recommending denial because the structure is in the bluff impact zone and they do have a deck to
enjoy the property, Nye said.
Crosby said the homeowners are doing some good things removing hardcover near the lake and he does
see a practical difficulty because of the size of the deck and believes what the applicants are asking to do
will not impact the bluff at all. He said he agrees with the Planning Commission.
Benson said the situation is tricky and there are hardships, but she is not in favor of seeing the footprint in
the bluff enlarged.
Crosby moved to approve LA23-000042 4731 North Shore Drive – Variance as presented with the
stipulation that the non-permitted structures near the lake be removed.
Johnson amended the motion to allow expansion of the deck to the rear but to not disturb the bluff
side of the deck. Crosby seconded the amended motion. VOTE: Ayes 3 Nays 1 (Benson).

PRESENTATION
15. PROSECUTING ATTORNEY ANNUAL UPDATE (continued)
Prosecuting Attorney Steve Tallon gave his annual update stating he has been the prosecuting attorney for
eight years. He said it has been a busy year in terms of zoning issues. There’s been a lot of trying to get
people into compliance. The goal is to do this in a friendly way but make people understand they can
follow the rules or they can come to the Council for a variance. It usually doesn’t come to him until the
City staff has been unable to get them comply, he said. Typically, after he files a compliant they get
compliance, the case settled and they have been able to mostly avoid criminal prosecution. In the police
department it is pretty much the same old stuff, he said. The County Attorney’s office is doing less
prosecution in some areas. A lot of what the County attorney turns down comes to his office. DWIs have
been about normal. Domestics seem to be down a little bit. He said the relationship with the police has
been good. He has joined another law practice so he will have some back-up.
Walsh asked about his plans to retire.
Tallon said he is 74 but has no plans to retire and will give his municipal clients a year’s notice. He said
he is healthy and likes what he does. His background before becoming an attorney was as a police
officer. He said he believes in accountability but also in treating people fairly.
Walsh pointed out that Tallon does not work for the City Council and is not the City Attorney. He gets
cases directly from staff.
COMMUNMITY DEVELOPMENT REPORT
Community Development Director Oakden gave a report on building permits and revenue. She said the
City is above the number of permits issued as of this time last year and so is very busy with permits,
reviewing applications and inspections. There will be about eight items for the Planning Commission
meeting next week. Late summer is always a busy time, she said, as people try to get applications in to get
work done before winter.
FINANCE DIRECTOR REPORT
Finance Director Olson reported said the Council will be approving the preliminary budget and tax levy at
the next City Council meeting. The City’s new accountant is being trained.
FIRE REPORT
Fire Chief Van Eyl reported there would be another Fire Department open house on Sept 27. The
department is processing a number of applications for fire fighters and does have six or seven applications
from Long Lake Fire that are on hold. Both Fire Departments participated in observance of 9/11 that day.
The department also trained school staff on AED use.
CITY ATTORNEY REPORT
Attorney Mattick reported the City is headed toward mediation with Long Lake regarding the lawsuit, has
selected a mediator and has a mediation session scheduled for Sept. 26.

CITY ADMINISTRATOR/ENGINEER REPORT
17. APPROVAL OF PROSECUTING ATTORNEY EXTENSION
Edwards updated the City Council, noting the approval of the prosecuting attorney’s contract extension
was on the agenda. His existing extension expired in September and this extension would be through
2024. The police chief has been working with the contracted communities to put together a Joint Powers
Agreement in order to have all the cities covered by the Orono PD served by the same prosecuting
attorney. He said Farniok saw the end of 2024 to be the next opportunity to do that.
Johnson moved, Crosby seconded, to approve the Prosecuting Attorney Contract Extension.
VOTE: Ayes 4, Nays 0
On the Engineering side, Edwards said, the Fox street project is nearing completion. Glendale Drive was
milled that day. Light poles for the Navarre parking lot are on order. The public works facility under
construction is a little ahead of the overall schedule. The roof is all done as well as the majority of the
plumbing. Early April completion is still projected.
COUNCIL COMMITTEE REPORT
18. FIRE NEGOTIATING COMMITTEE
19. FUTURE FIRE SERVICE MEETING
Johnson reported on the fire negotiating committee and the Future Fire Services Meeting. He said some
questioned why Orono was at the table, but he said it was pointed out Orono is still part of the community
and may serve other communities with fire. Legislators were asked about funding for the services fire
departments are providing. On the negotiations side, the team got together and is still collaborating, trying
to anticipate negotiations that are ahead and find common ground. He anticipates negotiations will
continue after mediation. He said it is important to come up with an exit plan that both cities understand.
Benson asked if the assumption is that everything is on the table for the mediation session on Sept. 26.
Walsh said they can’t talk about it but everything is on the table and they will be going in with an open
mind. The City has not ruled out anything, he said.
Edwards explained that the City is only allowed to have two Council members at Future Fire Services
because of bylaws, and if three or more attend there is a quorum of the Orono Council.
Walsh said Veach felt strongly that the two Council members on the negotiation committee. Veach and
Johnson, should be the ones to attend the Future Fire Services Meeting as well.
Benson said the Fire Services Meeting group formed in 2021 and that that time Orono was not interested
in participating, per Mayor Walsh. Johnson attended two times in the past several years and former
Councilmember Seals attended. Her concern is that when she was sworn in, Johnson said he did not find

the meeting useful and would prefer that the City Administrator and Fire Chief not attend. Benson said
she took a great interest in that committee from the time she was sworn in in January and attended
meetings until the most recent one when she was advised not to attend because of the quorum issue. She
said that meeting about the future of fire services, not negotiating with Long Lake, and she has been very
public about her interest. She said she is the only person on the Council who is not on any commission or
committee regarding fire. She asked to be considered as one of the Council members who would attend
future Fire Services.
Crosby said it is an expertise thing and Johnson and Veach are in the negotiation position and should be
attending this meeting. Johnson has been involved for a long time and Veach is on the Fire Advisory
Board, he said, adding that it just makes sense.
Benson said Crosby has said before she should not be attending fire meetings because she is not
experienced in fire and she sees this as a bit of a chicken and egg thing.
Crosby said Benson is on more committees than he is.
Johnson suggested that Benson be named as an alternate to Future Fire Services in case he or Veach could
not attend, which could lead to a more permanent role.
Crosby said it is concerning to him that the one Council member who votes no on anything relating to fire
wants to be on a fire committee.
Benson said this committee is more focused on legislation, funding, and cooperation between
communities and growing relationships with surrounding cities.
Walsh moved, Crosby seconded, that the representatives to the Future Fire Services Committee be
Johnson and Veach with Benson as an alternate. VOTE: Ayes 3 Nays 1 (Benson).
PUBLIC COMMENTS
Gabriel Jabbbour, 985 Tonakawa Road, said he is very concerned that nothing has changed in the City
especially regarding finances. None of the state aid for public safety went to police, he said. It’s all being
spent on a future fire department. He said the Council ran on total transparency but is now buying trucks
with an interest rate of five or six percent when the City could pass bonds with an interest rate of 3
percent. He was also concerned when the City lent the school district $1 million at 1 percent. He said the
City has four school districts within it and the Orono district has five cities in it, so Orono is taking the
burden off the other cities’ residents when it does that. He asked if everything is really on the table and if
Orono strikes a deal with Long Lake, what do they tell the people who have been promised jobs? He said
he supports Crosby’s right to say anything he wants to say civilly, but he shouldn’t say it as a Council
member. He said he does take exception to Crosby’s comments about the Nazis.
Brad Erickson, Corcoran, told Crosby he really stepped in it last week. He pointed out the Council had a
blue line flag displayed at the front. The blue line flag is not an official flag and should not be flying there

in front of the US flag, he said. He called it disrespectful on 9/11. He said he takes discomfort in Mr.
Crosby calling him out as a Nazi. Nazis don’t look like this, he said, and Nazis don’t act like this. They
act like the people who were out at the capitol on January 6 and were out at the Governor’s mansion. The
problem is, the City is being sued for being assholes, he said, and then Crosby calls him a Nazi. He said
he was talking about his grandparents and about his father who is still alive. He suggested Crosby try
telling him his son is a Nazi. He said he was glad Crosby’s true colors are trying to come through, adding
that everyone who doesn’t agree with him is a socialist or a clown or a Nazi from the dais here in Orono.
MAYOR/COUNCIL REPORT
Crosby said he never said Erickson was a Nazi; he said don’t act like one. He thanked everyone for being
there that evening as it is extremely important to never forget those who lose their lives on 9/11 and their
sacrifices, he said. He thanked members of the Council for vigorous respectful discussions.
Benson said this past weekend she attended the Loretto Fun Fest. They were celebrating the 75-year
history of the Loretto Fire Department which is the year they merged with Hamel Fire to form the West
Suburban Fire District which was about two historic departments coming together. She wanted to address
the comments made about her at the Aug. 28 Council meeting. A fellow Council member characterized as
irresponsible her vote against spending $2.8 million for vehicles and equipment for the Fire Department,
she said. This is a public safety matter. Each member of the Council is entitled to their vote. Commenting
on the vote of a fellow Council member is not in keeping with the rules of decorum, Benson said.. She
said the other Council member said her vote was for no reason other than her past vote on a decision
made by the Orono Council. That decision is impacting the City in real time, she said, adding the Council
can change direction at any time and not every decision is written in stone. She voted to deny because
there has not been a third-party independent evaluation done and data brought to the Council to
demonstrate that creation of a Fire Department will improve fire service; the public has not had sufficient
opportunity to be heard, and the public continues to express concerns about the fire service that will be
provided next year. The cost of the Orono Fire Department has far exceeded what this City has
historically paid for services provided by Long Lake Fire Department, she said, and the City will pay 100
percent of the costs. The direction that nearly every city around Orono is taking, is to share expenses like
costly trucks and the cost of paid-on-call fire service and they are looking at delivery of service as
collaborators, she said. This decision takes Orono further in a direction not supported by independent data
and not supported by the public.
Johnson said he would not comment on most of that but said the cost of fire would go up even if Orono
stayed in a contract with Long Lake. It is misleading, he said, to think Orono wouldn’t have a major
capital expenditure with respect to fire cost. He contended if the City of Orono had been managing those
resources the community would have a different level of service. In a long-term contract that isn’t a good
contract, he said the first step is to get out of the contract. Long Lake could save money by choosing to be
Orono’s partner. He said is irresponsible to vote against expenses that need to be made in order to provide
fire services. Some want a third party to study the matter, he said, but Orono has an experienced Chief
and City Administrator to do that. It is a lot of money, but money the City had to spend, he said. The City
is open to any ideas and not throwing anything off the table, he said, adding that he is optimistic and that
better collaboration with Long Lake is needed as the cities are transitioning. He noted that the new Long
Lake Fire Chief has been invited on several occasions to come to Orono City Council meetings and
answer questions. He said if you are paying 85 percent of the bill the leader of that service provider
should make himself available.

Walsh said the West Suburban Fire District was necessary for those cities because they are so small and
their merged fire department won’t even be as big as Orono’s. He said people should know that no one
will look out for City residents more than the City Council. He said Long Lake has made changes they
initially rejected because that is what Orono is now doing. Orono had its first home football game and
won big. Kids are back to school. Fall is coming. The Fair is over now and temperatures are starting to
drop. Trees are getting a tinge of yellow and orange. He said he had a great meeting with residents at
Hackberry Park and having that whole block for that park will be amazing. It will take time and money,
he said, but they will do it right. He ended with a quote from Rudy Giuliani regarding Sept.11.

CITY OF ORONO
RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL
NO. 7404

FINDINGS OF FACT:
1. This application was reviewed as Zoning File #LA23-000042. The analysis contained within staff
memos and the exhibits attached to the aforesaid memos, all minutes from the above mentioned
meetings, and any and all other materials distributed at these meetings are hereby incorporated by
reference.
2. The Property is located in the LR-1B One Family Lakeshore Residential Zoning District.
3. The Property contains 11,157 square feet in area and has a defined lot width of 60 feet at the 75-
foot lakeshore setback and a lot width of 60 feet at the OHWL.
4. The Property is within Tier 1 and hardcover is limited to 25 % according to the Stormwater Quality
Overlay District.
5. Applicant has applied for the following variances:
a. Bluff Setback
6. In considering this application for variances, the Council has considered the advice and
recommendation of the Planning Commission and the effect of the proposed variance upon the
health, safety and welfare of the community, existing and anticipated traffic conditions, light and
air, danger of fire, risk to the public safety, and the effect on values of property in the surrounding
area.
ANALYSIS:
1. “Variances shall only be permitted when they are in harmony with the general purposes and
intent of the ordinance . . . .” The proposed variance is in harmony with the purpose of the
Ordinance. The proposed deck and patio expansion will not be any closer to the top of bluff than
the existing deck. The proposed deck is carefully designed with the bluff in mind and is expanded
toward the rear of the property, away from the bluff line. Additionally, the proposal includes
removal of illegal hardcover, bringing the lot into conformance with the hardcover requirements.
This criterion is met.
2. “Variances shall only be permitted . . . when the variances are consistent with the comprehensive
plan.” The proposed variance is consistent with the comprehensive plan. The comprehensive plan
emphasizes the protection of natural resources and limiting hardcover. The proposed deck and patio
will maintain the existing setback from the bluff. The expansion will be towards the rear of the
property, away from the bluff. The proposal also includes the removal of illegal hardcover within
the bluff setback, which is consistent with the comprehensive plan. This criterion is met.
CITY OF ORONO
RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL
NO. 7404

3. “Variances may be granted when the applicant for the variance establishes that there are practical
difficulties in complying with the zoning ordinance. ‘Practical difficulties,’ as used in connection with
the granting of a variance, means that:
a. The property owner in question proposes to use the property in a reasonable manner,
however, the proposed use is not permitted by the official controls.
The expansion of the deck and patio within the bluff impact zone is supported by practical
difficulties and therefore is a reasonable use of the property. This criterion is met.
b. The plight of the landowner is due to circumstances unique to his property not created by the
landowner.
The lot size, width, topography, and existing improvements have not been created by the
current homeowner; and
c. The variance, if granted, will not alter the essential character of the locality.”
The project would not impact the essential character of the locality. The proposal is
to expand a deck away from the bluff and to remove illegal hardcover within the bluff.
This criterion is met.
4. “Economic considerations alone do not constitute practical difficulties.” Economic considerations
have not been a factor in the variance approval determination.
5. “Practical difficulties also include but are not limited to inadequate access to direct sunlight for solar
energy systems. Variances shall be granted for earth-sheltered construction as defined in Minn. Stat. §
216C.06, subd. 2, when in harmony with Orono City Code Chapter 78.” This condition is not
applicable.
6. “The board or the council may not permit as a variance any use that is not permitted under Orono City
Code Chapter 78 for property in the zone where the affected person's land is located.” This condition
is not applicable, as a residential home is a permitted use in the LR-1B District.
7. “The board or council may permit as a variance the temporary use of a one-family dwelling as a two-
family dwelling.” This condition is not applicable.
8. “The special conditions applying to the structure or land in question are peculiar to such property or
immediately adjoining property.” The special conditions of the property include the substandard lot
size, substandard lot width, topography, and location of existing structures. This criterion is met.
CITY OF ORONO
RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL
NO. 7404
4
9. “The conditions do not apply generally to other land or structures in the district in which the land is
located.” The request is specific to this property which is substandard in width and size and is impacted
by an existing bluff. The proposal is to expand an existing deck with a bluff setback without
encroaching any close to the top of bluff.. This criterion is met.
10. “The granting of the application is necessary for the preservation and enjoyment of a substantial
property right of the applicant.”. The proposed expansion of the deck allows for full enjoyment of the
outdoor living space. The proposal also includes removing illegal hardcover within the bluff setback.
This criterion is met.
11. “The granting of the proposed variance will not in any way impair health, safety, comfort or morals,
or in any other respect be contrary to the intent of this chapter.” Granting the requested variances will
not adversely impact health, safety, comfort, or morals of the community. This criterion is met.
12. “The granting of such variance will not merely serve as a convenience to the applicant, but is
necessary to alleviate demonstrable difficulty.” The variance allows for the expansion of a deck and
patio within a bluff setback. The current deck and home are located within the bluff setback
permitted by Resolution 6206. The expansion will not encroach any closer to the top of bluff and will
expand toward the rear of the property away from the bluff. The expanded deck and patio allow the
homeowner to fully enjoy and the outdoor living space. Unpermitted hardcover will be removed as
part of the project bringing the property into conformance with the overall hardcover. This criterion
is met.
CONCLUSIONS, ORDER AND CONDITIONS:
Based upon one or more of the above findings, the Orono City Council hereby grants a variance
from Orono Municipal Zoning Code Sections 78-1279 to allow the construction an expanded deck and
patio within the required 30-foot bluff setback.
1. Council approval is based on the entire record, above Findings.

Prepared By: NAN Reviewed By: LLO Approved By:
1. Purpose. This application is regarding a variance from a bluff setback in order to expand a deck and
patio within the bluff impact zone.
2. MN§15.99 Application Deadline. The application was received July 17, 2023 and considered to be
complete on July 31, 2023. Therefore the 60-Day review period expires on September 29, 2023.
3. Background/ Summary. The applicant is proposing to enlarge an existing deck and patio
underneath the deck within a bluff setback. The entirety of the proposed deck and patio are within the
bluff impact zone and do not meet the required bluff setback of 30 feet from top of bluff. The proposal
will decrease the existing bluff setback of the deck from 10 feet to 8 feet. The original deck was
constructed with the home in 2013. Several variances were granted through Resolution 6206 in order to
construct the home and deck due to the location of the bluff. The bluff is located along the western side of
the property. The western property line is shared with the city as it is an unimproved right-of-way. The
city has recently made improvements within the right-of-way for ravine stabilization. The property
currently has several improvements that were constructed without a permit by a previous home owner.
The improvements include a lakeside deck and large patio. These unpermitted improvements are
proposed to be removed by the applicant. The proposed project will bring the total hardcover of the site
into compliance from 28.4% to 24.5%. Due to the sensitive nature of the bluff, staff is not supportive of
the proposed deck and patio expansion. While the subject property is substandard in size and width, there
is an existing deck and patio that allow for use and enjoyment of the lot.
4. Planning Commission Vote and Comment. On August 21, 2023, the Planning Commission held a
public hearing, no public comments were made. The Commission reviewed the application and noted the
proposed project will bring the overall hardcover of the lot into compliance and remove several
unpermitted improvements within the bluff and lakeyard. The Commission stated the expansion was not
unreasonable and allowed for full use and enjoyment of the property. The Commission voted 6 to 0 on a
motion to approve the requested variances as applied.
5. Public Comment. The applicant has provided neighbor support letter after the planning commission
meeting, but no other public comment has been received. See Exhibit D
6. Staff Recommendation. Staff recommends denial of the application for a bluff setback variance as
requested. Staff also recommends that the removal of the lakeside deck is done immediately, regardless of
the outcome of the variance.
COUNCIL ACTION REQUESTED
Direct staff to draft a denial resolution.

1. Purpose. This application is regarding variances for 75-foot lake setback, wetland setback, and
hardcover within the 75-foot setback to support improvements to the home and property.
2. MN§15.99 Application Deadline. The application was received on May 17, 2023 and considered to be
complete on August 2, 2023. The 60-Day review period has been extended and expires on November 30,
2023.
3. Background/ Summary. The applicant’s original proposal includes a house addition within the 75-foot
lake setback, new exterior walls under the lakeside deck (currently supported by posts), a new in-ground
swimming pool, new retaining walls, a stone fence/wall, stairs, walkways, as well as a number of hardcover
changes to the site within the 75-foot setback. Since the planning commission’s review, the applicant has
made changes to the plans and submitted amended plans (Exhibit A). Specifically, the addition to the home
has been removed, the pool has been relocated to be behind the 75-foot setback from the lake, but is still
approximately 30-feet from the inlet, and some of the proposed hardcover improvements have been adjusted.
The planning commission requested clarification regarding the hardcover levels specifically within the 75-
foot setback. The current hardcover level in the 75-foot setback area is 6,419 square feet (36.8%); the
applicant’s proposed calculations show a reduction of 636 square feet resulting in 5,783 square feet or 33.18%
hardcover proposed within the 75-foot setback.
4. Variance Description. The applicant is proposing changes to the hardcover improvements within the 75-
foot setback from the lake and inlet on the property. The improvements are alphabetically coded on the survey
for the hardcover calculations and the alphabetic code will be used to identify which improvements are being
discussed herein. The original list was generated from the original plans. Staff has annotated items with
either strikethrough (example) or italicized text to indicate changes from the original plan set. The following
new improvements are proposed; changes from the original plans are noted:
a) The proposed home addition is 56 feet from the inlet; removed from plan
b) The pool (H) is set back 23 30 feet from the inlet and approximately 20 29 feet from the wetland
where 75-foot (lake & inlet) and 25-foot (wetland) setbacks are required. The pool location has been adjusted
within the existing driveway hardcover; however, the pool is a new accessory structure and is considered an
expansion within the 75-foot setback; revised
c) The pool patio (G) is set back 20 19 feet from the inlet and 16 15 feet from the wetland where a 75-
foot setback and/or 25-foot wetland setback are required; revised
d) The six-foot tall stone fence (K) is 20 feet from the inlet and 12 feet from the wetland; this structure is
not permitted within the 75-foot and/or 25-foot wetland setback;
e) The new, circular paver patio and new walk (S) on the lakeside of the pool are 22 feet from the inlet
and 48 feet from the lake; removed from plan
f) The applicant is proposing to enclose the area under the existing deck. This is an expansion of the
building footprint. The deck is 18 feet from the lake; the enclosure changes the home’s setback from 27 feet
to 18 feet where a 75-foot setback is required; and The “existing” boulder retaining walls (P) on the lakeside
of the home appear to have been recently installed in the place of the one-foot-tall timber border shown on the

Existing Conditions Survey. The wall replacement approval may have been included in one of the previously
approved variances for the property. However, there is no record of a permit for the new boulder walls. The
approximately two-foot-tall boulder walls were replaced in a different location slightly further from the lake
than the timber border. The boulder walls are an expansion of the existing condition in footprint, location, and
height. The new boulder walls are 31 feet from the lake and 17 feet from the wetland where a 75-foot lake
setback and a 25-foot wetland setback are required;
g) The existing lake access stair is being replaced by a new stair 38 feet from the lake (this is a permitted
improvement).
h) The proposed driveway configuration has reverted back to the existing condition with a looped
design. The walkway to the pool area has also been modified; and
i) New hardcover expansions are proposed within the 75-foot setback including walkways, pool, and
pool patio where no hardcover is permitted.
5. Planning Commission Vote and Comment. On August 21, the Planning Commission held a public
hearing. Following the public hearing, the Planning Commission voted 5 – 0 on a motion for denial as
applied. The Commission provided specific feedback regarding the location of the pool. The Commission felt
that it was important that the pool meet the 75-foot setback from the main open water of Lake Minnetonka,
which resulted in the amended plans. Please review the minutes from the discussion (attached as Exhibit D).
6. Public Comment. No comments from the public were received on this application.
7. Staff Recommendation. Staff Planning Staff recommends denial.

SHORE DRIVE, REQUESTS BUILDING AND STRUCTURAL VARIANCES WITHIN
THE 75-FOOT LAKE SETBACK, HARDCOVER AND WETLAND SETBACKS IN
ORDER TO CONSTRUCT A HOME ADDITION, AN IN-GROUND POOL, AND
OTHER HARDCOVER AND STRUCTURAL IMPROVEMENTS.
City Planner Curtis gave a presentation on the item, stating the property has lakeshore on the south and an
inlet creek connecting to French Lake which establishes a 75-foot setback along both the south and west
sides of the property resulting an approximate 5,000 square foot buildable area. The inlet is also classified
as a protected wetland. The existing home on the property is located almost entirely within the 75-foot
lake setback, she said. The applicant is proposing to construct an addition to the home within the 75-foot
lake setback, new exterior walls under the lakeside deck, a new in-ground swimming pool, and new
retaining walls, stairs, walkways, as well as other hardcover changes to the site within the 75-foot setback.
They are proposing to remove about 4,000 square feet of driveway, some of which would be converted to
pool and pool patio areas and a portion would be covered by a new detached garage. They would add a
six-foot high stone wall to surround the pool area on the inlet and street sides of the patio area within the
setback. Overall hardcover would remain conforming but much is in the 75-foot setback. The applicant
has identified the unique configuration with lakeshore on two sides as a practical difficulty supporting the
requested variances. Staff finds that the additional setback burden on the property resulting from the inlet
does create practical difficulty, but the owners have reasonable use of the property within the existing
principal building and have better alternatives for expansion or improvements. The proposed addition
could be constructed in a more conforming location, she said. Staff recommends denial as submitted. The
applicant is present, she said.
Bollis asked if the inlet was public water and is that why there is a 75foot setback there because that
seems restrictive, he said.

Curtis said the inlet is public water. While the hardcover is being reduced staff would like to see a
breakdown of how much of the reduction is in the setback, she said.
Peter Eskuche of Eskuche Design, Deephaven, pointed out the small buildable triangle created by the two
75-foot setbacks and said they are basically proposing to replace part of the driveway with the pool. The
new garage would be conforming. The reduction would be a reduction of 212 square feet of hardcover in
the 75-foot setback, he said, with a total reduction in hardcover of nearly 2,000 square feet.
Chair Bollis opened the public hearing at 6:14 p.m.
There were no public comments
Chair Bollis closed the public hearing at 6:14 p.m.
Bollis said he thought the applicant had done a good job of keeping the changes in the existing hard cover
given the limitations of the site. He noted that the pool is not just a trade-off of hardcovers since it is
considered a structure.
McCuthen said it is definitely a unique lot. He lives near there and is concerned that in a wet year part of
this property could be underwater. He said is not in support of adding a pool and without a pool there
would be no need for some of the additional walls but he saw some wiggle room on the home addition
considering the whole home is non-conforming. He appreciates the reduction of hardover in the 75-foot
setback.
Erickson said he had concerns regarding the practical difficulties. He cited Minnesota Statute 462537
Sub. 62 saying variances should only be permitted when they are in harmony with the intent and purpose
of the ordinance. He did not feel that was applicable here when the applicants were not choosing other
locations that would be more conforming. There is another side to the property that is farther away from
the lakeshore.
Ressler clarified the pool is considered an accessory structure with a 15-foot setback if it was a side-yard.
He said he was not in favor of putting a pool in the 75-foot setback and would support positioning that
pool outside of the 75-foot lakeshore setback he would be more comfortable with that. Staff has said it
wants a more specific survey of the difference between existing and proposed hardcover before it goes to
Council. The inlet needs to be noted but even more noted should be the lakeshore setback. If the structure
of the pool moves outside of the 75-foot setback he sees the pool patio and driveway as a one-for-one
tradeoff. He is also concerned about the six-foot walls because fencing is not allowed in the setback.
Commissioners were in agreement that they would support the application with relocation of the pool
away from lakeshore setback, reconsideration of the six-foot walls and a better survey of the difference
between existing and proposed hardcover. Commissioners explained they could vote on the application or
table. If there was a vote to deny the applicant still could go directly to the City Council and choose
whether or not to make the recommended changes before it was presented to Council. If the application
was tabled it would have to come back to Planning Commission before going to Council

Public Hearing
Background
The property has lakeshore on the south and an inlet creek connecting to French Lake which establishes a 75-
foot setback along both the south and west sides of the property resulting an approximate 5,000 square foot
buildable area. This inlet is also classified as a protected wetland. The existing home on the property is located
almost entirely within the 75-foot lake setback. The applicant is proposing to construct an addition to the home
within the 75-foot lake setback, new exterior walls under the lakeside deck currently held up by deck posts, a
new in-ground swimming pool, new retaining walls, stairs, walkways, as well as conduct a number of hardcover
changes to the site within the 75-foot setback. Please refer to Exhibit E and Page 3 of Exhibit F for a detailed
annotation of the changes. The survey also reflects removal of an existing concrete bridge (shown as L on the
proposed survey) to be removed. A six-foot high stone wall is also proposed to surround the pool area on the
inlet and street sides of the patio area within the 75-foot setback. Aesthetic modifications to the home and a
detached garage building are also shown on the submitted plans which do not require zoning approvals.
Two recent variance approvals were granted for construction of a new home on the property in 2019
(Resolution No. 7013) and 2022 (Resolution No. 7272). The new home was never built; both approvals have
since expired.
Practical Difficulties Analysis
Applicants Submittal information: The applicant has identified the unique configuration with lakeshore on two
sides as a practical difficulty supporting the requested variances. Additionally, they have provided supporting
documentation regarding Practical Difficulties attached as Exhibit B, and should be asked for additional
testimony regarding the application.
Planning Staff Practical Difficulty Analysis: Staff finds that the additional setback burden on the property
resulting from the inlet does create practical difficulty. However, the owners have reasonable use of the
property within the existing principal building and have better alternatives for expansion/improvements. The
applicant is choosing not to construct the proposed addition in a more conforming location (on the east side of
the home within the building envelope) and is proposing to intensify the use of, and the encroachments within,
the most sensitive portions of the property for accessory and somewhat superfluous purposes.
Application Summary: The applicant requests variances within the 75-foot lake setback in order to
construct a home addition, an in-ground pool, and other hardcover and structural improvements within
75 feet of the ordinary high water level of Lake Minnetonka and within the wetland setback.
Staff Recommendation: Planning Department Staff recommends denial of the application as submitted.

* The LR-1A side yard setbacks on the west side of the property are not called out as the 75-foot setback from
the inlet is more restrictive.
** It is unclear whether the proposed enclosure of the underneath side of the lakeside deck is to be further
excavated and improved for internal storage/living space or whether it will remain as-is (see list on Page 3).
Clarification is needed.

Applicable Regulations:
Building and Structural Improvements within the 75-foot Setback (Section 78-1279) and Hardcover within the
75-foot Setback (Section 78-1680)
No buildings, structures, or hardcover improvements are permitted within the 75-foot setback with few
exceptions as noted. The applicant is proposing to convert the existing attached garage to living space including
a new addition on the street side of the home approximately 56 feet from the OHWL of the inlet.
The applicant is proposing changes to the hardcover improvements within the 75-foot setback from the lake
and inlet on the property. They are removing and converting approximately 4,000 square feet of driveway as
part of the proposal. Some of the driveway will be converted to pool and pool patio areas, a portion will be
covered by the new detached garage. The changes include an in-ground swimming pool to be located within
what is currently a portion of the driveway within the 75-foot setback. New patios, screening walls, retaining
walls, steps, walkways are all shown within the 75-foot setback.
The improvements are alphabetically coded on the survey for the hardcover calculations and the alphabetic
code will be used to identify which improvements are being discussed herein. Keeping in mind the proposal
includes removal of a concrete walk and wood borders on the lakeside of the home, the following new
improvements are proposed:
1. The proposed home addition is 56 feet from the inlet;
2. The pool (H) is set back 23 feet from the inlet;
3. The pool patio (G) is set back 20 feet from the inlet;
4. The six-foot tall stone fence (K) is 20 feet from the inlet;
5. The new, circular paver patio and new walk (S) on the lakeside of the pool are 22 feet from the inlet
and 48 feet from the lake;
6. The existing deck to be enclosed beneath may be considered to be an expansion of the building
footprint (more information is required from the applicant). This deck is 18 feet from the lake the
enclosure may result in a change in the home’s setback from 27 feet to 18 feet, an expansion of the
encroachment; and
7. The “existing” boulder retaining walls (P) on the lakeside of the home were recently installed in the
place of the one-foot-tall timber border shown on the Existing Conditions Survey (Exhibit C). They may
have been included in one of the previously approved variances. However, the City does not have a
record of a permit for the boulder walls. The approximately two-foot-tall boulder walls were replaced
in a different location slightly further from the lake than the timber border. The boulder walls are an
expansion of the existing condition in footprint, location, and height. The new boulder walls are 31 feet
from the lake (see Exhibit K for the aerial photo comparison).
The existing lake access stair (G on the existing survey) is being replaced by a new stair (I on the proposed
survey). The new stairs are an improvement of the existing setback of 27.5 feet to 38 feet and are a permitted
improvement in the 75-foot setback.
In-kind replacement or reconstruction of existing improvement is permitted; however new improvements,
expansions of and/or relocation of improvements is not permitted. While the proposed in-ground pool does
not result in any increase of massing or hardcover within the setback, it does create an expanded volume of the
improvement in the setback and requires a lake setback variance to be 23 feet from the inlet and 60 feet from
the lake requiring a variance. Also proposed as part of the area to be converted from driveway to pool patio is a
new six-foot tall privacy wall 19 feet from the inlet; this wall also requires a setback variance.
Although the overall hardcover on the property is and will remain conforming (from 21.3% to 19% overall
LA23-000026
21 August 2023
Page 4 of 6
hardcover), a majority of the existing and proposed hardcover is located within the 75-foot setback areas; the
applicant’s plan results in 33.8% of the 75-foot setback area being covered by hardcover and structures. This is
significant and the applicant should provide a breakdown of the existing hardcover in the 75-foot setback for
comparison.
The total hardcover reduction is 1,954 square feet for the property. The applicant should clarify how much of
the hardcover reduction is within the 75-foot setback. The submitted existing hardcover calculations do not
separately calculate the hardcover within the 75-foot setback. However, the proposed hardcover calculation
sheet does show the improvements specifically within the 75-foot setback. Exhibit E and Page 3 of Exhibit F
illustrate the hardcover changes proposed.
Wetland Setbacks (Section 78-1605)
Where the MCWD does not require a buffer, a 25-foot setback shall be required by the City between the edge
of all wetlands from any building (principal or accessory) or other structure, septic systems, or wells. The
delineated wetland edge is somewhat consistent with the OHWL on the inlet side, therefore many of the same
proposed expansions or new encroachments also do not meet the required 25-foot wetland setback.
1. The pool (H) is set back 20 feet from the wetland;
2. The pool patio (G) is set back 16 feet from the wetland;
3. The six-foot tall stone fence (K) is 12 feet from the wetland;
4. The new, circular paver patio (S) on the lakeside of the pool is 16 feet from the wetland; and
5. The new “existing” boulder retaining wall (P) was constructed to replace existing timber walls on the
lakeside of the home and is located 17 feet from the wetland.
Governing Regulation: Variance (Section 78-123)
In reviewing applications for variance, the Planning Commission shall consider the effect of the proposed
variance upon the health, safety and welfare of the community, existing and anticipated traffic conditions, light
and air, danger of fire, risk to the public safety, and the effect on values of property in the surrounding area. The
Planning Commission shall consider recommending approval for variances from the literal provisions of the
Zoning Code in instances where their strict enforcement would cause practical difficulties because of
circumstances unique to the individual property under consideration, and shall recommend approval only when
it is demonstrated that such actions will be in keeping with the spirit and intent of the Orono Zoning Code.
Economic considerations alone do not constitute practical difficulties. Practical difficulties also include but are
not limited to inadequate access to direct sunlight for solar energy systems. Variances shall be granted for
earth-sheltered construction as defined in Minn. Stat. § 216C.06, subd. 2, when in harmony with this chapter.
The board or the council may not permit as a variance any use that is not permitted under this chapter for
property in the zone where the affected person's land is located. The board or council may permit as a variance
the temporary use of a one-family dwelling as a two-family dwelling.
According to MN §462.537 Subd. 6(2) variances shall only be permitted when:
1. The variance is in harmony with the general intent and purpose of the Ordinance. The proposed
variances are not in harmony with the intent and purpose of the Ordinance. The goal of the
ordinance is to reduce or eliminate improvements in the lake yard, the proposal includes new or
expanded improvements within the lake yard. This criterion is note met.
2. The variance is consistent with the comprehensive plan. The proposed variances to conduct
improvements to a nonconforming home and property are not consistent with the comprehensive
plan. Reasonable use is established by the existing residential home on the property. The owners
have a right to maintain the existing conditions. This criterion is not met.
3. The applicant establishes that there are practical difficulties.
LA23-000026
21 August 2023
Page 5 of 6
a. The property owner proposes to use the property in a reasonable manner not permitted by the
official controls; A request to permit some modifications including additions to the existing
home on the substandard lot may be reasonable however the nature and scale of the
proposed changes is not reasonable. This criterion has not been met.
b. There are circumstances unique to the property not created by the landowner; The unique
setbacks resulting from the wetland, lakeshore, and lake inlet significantly impact the
buildable area on the property; the conditions were not created by the owners; and
c. The variance will not alter the essential character of the locality. The requested variances may
result in a further intensification of the nonconformities and use of the most sensitive areas
of the property.
Additionally, City Code 78-123 provides additional parameters within which a variance may be granted as
follows:
4. Economic considerations alone do not constitute practical difficulties. Economic considerations have
not been a factor in the variance approval determination.
5. Practical difficulties also include but are not limited to inadequate access to direct sunlight for solar
energy systems. Variances shall be granted for earth-sheltered construction as defined in Minn. Stat. §
216C.06, subd. 2, when in harmony with Orono City Code Chapter 78. This condition is not applicable.
6. The board or the council may not permit as a variance any use that is not permitted under Orono City
Code Chapter 78 for property in the zone where the affected person's land is located. This condition is
not applicable, as the use for a single-family home and residential improvements are allowed uses in
the LR-1A District.
7. The board or council may permit as a variance the temporary use of a one-family dwelling as a two-
family dwelling. This condition is not applicable.
8. The special conditions applying to the structure or land in question are peculiar to such property or
immediately adjoining property. The unique setbacks resulting from the wetland, lakeshore, and lake
inlet exacerbate the property’s substandard size and home proximity to the lakeshore creates
difficulties which apply to few properties in the same neighborhood. The lake and inlet impacting the
property resulting in an approximate 5,000 square foot building envelope is unique to the property.
9. The conditions do not apply generally to other land or structures in the district in which the land is
located. The wetland and lakeshore setbacks create difficulties which may also apply to a few
properties in the same neighborhood. However, the location of the lake inlet resulting in a more
restrictive building envelope is unique to this property.
10. The granting of the application is necessary for the preservation and enjoyment of a substantial
property right of the applicant. The owners have enjoyment and use of the property through the
existing improvements. Expansion or intensification of existing nonconforming improvements or
creation of new nonconformities is not a substantial property right.
11. The granting of the proposed variance will not in any way impair health, safety, comfort or morals, or in
any other respect be contrary to the intent of this chapter. Granting the requested variances in this
would be contrary to the intent of the zoning chapter. However, providing some relief through
variances may be appropriate and supported by practical difficulty. The current plans are too intense.
12. The granting of such variance will not merely serve as a convenience to the applicant, but is necessary
to alleviate demonstrable difficulty. The requested variances appear to serve as a convenience to the
applicant. Effort should be made to show the desired improvements in more conforming locations.
The Commission may recommend or Council may impose conditions in granting of variances. Any conditions
imposed must be directly related to and must bear a rough proportionality to the impact created by the
variance. No variance shall be granted or changed beyond the use permitted in this chapter in the district
where such land is located.

Public Comments
No comments from the public have been received.
Issues for Consideration
1. Does the Planning Commission find that that the property owner proposes to use the property in a
reasonable manner which is not permitted by an official control?
2. Does the Commission find it necessary to impose conditions in order to mitigate the impacts
created by the granting of the requested variances?
3. The Commission should discuss the proposed under deck enclosure and the proposed use of the
new space with the applicant.
4. The Commission should consider the additional hardcover proposed within the 75’ setback and
determine if the proposed improvements are necessary or serve as a convenience.
5. Does the application improve or protect the sensitive areas on the property?
6. Are there any other issues or concerns with this application?
Planning Staff Recommendation
Staff recommends denial of the application as submitted. While staff recognizes that there are significant
challenges to development of this property, the applicant’s current plan does not appear to make an effort to
better utilize the allowed building envelope or to move improvements away from the most sensitive areas of
the property.
The proposed detached garage is shown in a conforming location on the east side of the property; variances
will not be required for the new detached garage.

AGENDA ITEM
Prepared By: NAN Reviewed By: LLO Approved By:
1. Purpose. This application is regarding a house addition that requires variances from average
lakeshore setback, 75-foot lake setback, hardcover, hardcover within the 75-foot lake set back, and side
yard setback.
2. MN§15.99 Application Deadline. The application was received on December 2, 2022 and
considered complete on May 31, 2023. The 60-Day review period expired on July 30, 2023. Staff
administratively extended the deadline by 60 days and the 120-Day deadline expires on September 28,
2023.
3. Background/ Summary. The City Council first reviewed this application at the July 10, 2023 City
Council meeting. The Council reviewed a two-story addition with a rooftop terrace above the second
story. The proposal also included a new deck on the lakeside of the home. The Council was not
supportive of the project as applied and provided feedback to the applicant. The Council identified the
difficulty of the small lot and working with a nonconforming building; however, the height of the addition
was not supported due to the amount of massing. The Council did not support the new lake deck and stair
as they as were not in favor of any new expansion lakeward. The Council discussed some support of a
one-story addition in the same footprint as the existing deck on the north side of the home. The initial
application was not supported by staff and received a split recommendation from the Planning
Commission with a vote of 2 to 3 to approve as applied.
The applicant has chosen the amend their application by removing the proposed deck on the lake side of
the home and reducing the height of the addition. The revised plans show a one-story addition with a
similar footprint to that of the existing deck in that location. The addition has been reduced in height and
size. However, the revised addition has a decreased side yard setback than the previous iteration. The
applicant has provided a revised letter from that impacted neighbor indicating support of the revised
plans. The proposed addition is 4 feet from the side property line matching the existing setback of the
current deck. The previous plan had a proposed setback of 8.2 feet from the side property line. The
revised plans decrease the overall height of the addition and have pulled the massing away from the lake.
The revised plans have also further reduced hardcover by 86 square feet. The amended plans require
variances from the average lakeshore setback, 75-foot setback, hardcover, hardcover within the 75-foot
setback and side yard setback, however the overall impact of the addition from the lake has improved.
Staff is supportive of the revised proposal due to the reduction in massing with the proposed one-story
addition and the revised footprint of the addition as it is consistent with the existing deck and has overall
less impact to the lake as the original proposal.
The review deadline for this application is September 28, 2023 and therefore staff is requesting Council
act on this application tonight. Staff has drafted both an approval resolution and a denial resolution.
Council should consider the following options:
1. Approve the revised application has applied.
2. Deny the revised application as applied.

WHEREAS, on September 25, 2023 the City Council reviewed a revised application and the
recommendations of City staff; and
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the City Council of Orono, Minnesota
hereby approves the requested variance as described above based on one or more of the following findings
of fact concerning the Property:
FINDINGS OF FACT:
1. This application was reviewed as Zoning File #LA22-000064. The analysis contained within staff
memos and the exhibits attached to the aforesaid memos, all minutes from the above mentioned
meetings, and any and all other materials distributed at these meetings are hereby incorporated by
reference.
2. The Property is located in the LR-1B One Family Lakeshore Residential Zoning District.
3. The Property contains 20,228 square feet in area and has a defined lot width of 318 feet at the 75-
foot lakeshore setback and a lot width of 280 feet at the OHWL.
4. The Property is within Tier 1 and hardcover is limited to 25 % according to the Stormwater Quality
Overlay District.
5. Applicant has applied for the following variances:
a. Side Yard Setback
b. Average Lakeshore Setback
c. 75-foot Lake Setback
d. Hardcover within the 75-foot Lake Setback
e. Overall Hardcover to exceed 25%
6. In considering this application for variances, the Council has considered the advice and

air, danger of fire, risk to the public safety, and the effect on values of property in the surrounding
area.
CITY OF ORONO
RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL
NO. 7403

ANALYSIS:
1. “Variances shall only be permitted when they are in harmony with the general purposes and intent
of the ordinance . . . .” The subject property is uniquely shaped, substandard in area, and has no
compliant building envelope. Much of the home is within the 75-foot lake setback and the average
lakeshore setback. The proposed addition maintains the same lakeyard setback as the existing deck.
The proposal also decreases the overall hardcover as applied. The proposed addition will be the
same size and the same location as a current deck. These aspects of the application are in harmony
with the Ordinance. This criterion is met.
2. “Variances shall only be permitted . . . when the variances are consistent with the comprehensive
plan.” The variances resulting in the construction of a single-story addition in the similar footprint
as an existing deck to a single-family home is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan. The plan
reduces overall hardcover and maintains the same lake setback at the deck today. Additionally, the
addition is a single story and is consistent with the existing home on an extremely substandard lot.
This criterion is met.
3. “Variances may be granted when the applicant for the variance establishes that there are practical
difficulties in complying with the zoning ordinance. ‘Practical difficulties,’ as used in connection with
the granting of a variance, means that:
a. The property owner in question proposes to use the property in a reasonable manner,
however, the proposed use is not permitted by the official controls.
The construction of an addition to the home is reasonable, and the proposed one-story
addition in the same footprint as an existing deck is a reasonable request. The proposed
addition will not impact the views of the lake enjoyed by the neighbor and the project will
reduce the overall hardcover. This criterion is met.
b. The plight of the landowner is due to circumstances unique to his property not created by the
landowner.
The substandard lot size, unique lot shape, and location of the existing building on the
property is unique to the property and not created by the property owner. This criterion is
met.
c. The variance, if granted, will not alter the essential character of the locality.”
The proposed addition will not impact the lake views of neighboring properties and is
modest in size. The proposed addition will not impact the character of the neighborhood.
This criterion is met.
CITY OF ORONO
RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL
NO. 7403

4. “Economic considerations alone do not constitute practical difficulties.” Economic considerations
have not been a factor in the variance approval determination.
5. “Practical difficulties also include but are not limited to inadequate access to direct sunlight for solar
energy systems. Variances shall be granted for earth-sheltered construction as defined in Minn. Stat. §
216C.06, subd. 2, when in harmony with Orono City Code Chapter 78.” This condition is not
applicable.
6. “The board or the council may not permit as a variance any use that is not permitted under Orono City
Code Chapter 78 for property in the zone where the affected person's land is located.” This condition
is not applicable, as a residential home is a permitted use in the LR-1B District.
7. “The board or council may permit as a variance the temporary use of a one-family dwelling as a two-
family dwelling.” This condition is not applicable.
8. “The special conditions applying to the structure or land in question are peculiar to such property or
immediately adjoining property.” The substandard lot size, unique lot shape, and the location of the
existing building on the lot are unique conditions to this specific property. This criterion is met.
9. “The conditions do not apply generally to other land or structures in the district in which the land is
located.” The request is specific to this property as it relates to an existing nonconforming building.
This criterion is met.
10. “The granting of the application is necessary for the preservation and enjoyment of a substantial
property right of the applicant.”. The existing home does not have a compliant building envelope and
therefore any addition requires multiple variances. The minor expansion does not negatively impact
neighboring properties or the views of the lake. The proposed addition allows for full use of the existing
home on the property. This criterion is met.
11. “The granting of the proposed variance will not in any way impair health, safety, comfort or morals,
or in any other respect be contrary to the intent of this chapter.” Granting the requested variances will
not adversely impact health, safety, comfort, or morals of the community. This criterion is met.
12. “The granting of such variance will not merely serve as a convenience to the applicant, but is
necessary to alleviate demonstrable difficulty.” The variance allows for the construction of a one-
story addition in the place of an existing deck. Variances are needed due to the nonconforming home
and lack of building envelope. The overall project will reduce the total hardcover. This criterion is
met.

minutes from the above-mentioned meetings, and any and all other materials distributed at these
meetings are hereby incorporated by reference.
A2. The Property is located in the LR-1B One Family Lakeshore Residential Zoning District.
A3. The Property contains a single-family residence.
A4. The Property contains 20,228 square feet in area and has a defined lot width of 318 feet at the 75-
foot setback and a lot width of 280 feet at the OHWL.
A5. Applicant has applied for the following variances:
a. Side Yard Setback
b. Average Lakeshore Setback
c. 75-Foot Lake Setback
d. Hardcover within the 75-foot Lake Setback
e. Hardcover to exceed 25%
A6. The Property is within Tier 1 and hardcover is limited to 25% according to the Stormwater
Quality Overlay District.
A7. In considering this application for variance, the Council has considered the advice and
recommendation of the Planning Commission and the effect of the proposed variance upon the
health, safety and welfare of the community, existing and anticipated traffic conditions, light and
air, danger of fire, risk to the public safety, and the effect on values of property in the surrounding
area.

ANALYSIS:
B1. “Variances shall only be permitted when they are in harmony with the general purposes and intent
of the ordinance . . . .” The subject property is uniquely shaped, substandard in area, and has no
compliant building envelope. Much of the home is within the 75-foot lake setback and the average
lakeshore setback. The proposal also decreases the overall hardcover as applied. These aspects of
the application are in harmony with the Ordinance. However, the application proposes an intensity
of use within the new hardcover in the lakeyard and an addition that is a new vertical
encroachment in the average lakeshore setback. The home addition would be a new building
expansion within the 75’ lakeyard and average lakeshore setback. The building addition within the
protected lakeyard is not supported by the Ordinance. This criterion is not met.
B2. “Variances shall only be permitted . . . when the variances are consistent with the comprehensive
plan.” The variances resulting in the construction of an addition to the existing single-family home
is not consistent with the Comprehensive Plan. The applicant has full use of the property with the
existing home. This criterion is not met.
B3. “Variances may be granted when the applicant for the variance establishes that there are practical
difficulties in complying with the zoning ordinance. ‘Practical difficulties,’ as used in connection with
the granting of a variance, means that:
a. The property owner in question proposes to use the property in a reasonable manner,
however, the proposed use is not permitted by the official controls. The construction of an
addition to the home is reasonable, however the owner has reasonable use of the property
with the existing home. Additionally, the proposed height creates a new vertical
encroachment into the average lakeshore setback and is beyond the current roofline of the
home. This criterion is not met.
b. The plight of the landowner is due to circumstances unique to his property not created by
the landowner. The substandard lot size, unique lot shape, and location of the existing
building on the property is unique to the property and not created by the property owner.
This criterion is met.
c. The variance, if granted, will not alter the essential character of the locality.” The
proposed addition intensifies the hardcover within the lakeyard. This is not in character
with the neighborhood. This criterion is not met.
B4. “Economic considerations alone do not constitute practical difficulties.” The variance is not sought
principally to increase financial gain to the owners of the Property. Economic considerations have
not been a factor in the variance approval determination.

B5. “Practical difficulties also include but are not limited to inadequate access to direct sunlight for solar
energy systems. Variances shall be granted for earth-sheltered construction as defined in Minn. Stat. §
216C.06, subd. 2, when in harmony with Orono City Code Chapter 78.” This condition is not
applicable.
B6. “The board or the council may not permit as a variance any use that is not permitted under Orono City
Code Chapter 78 for property in the zone where the affected person's land is located.” This condition
is not applicable, as a single-family residence is an allowed use in the LR-1B District.
B7. “The board or council may permit as a variance the temporary use of a one-family dwelling as a two-
family dwelling.” This condition is not applicable.
B8. “The special conditions applying to the structure or land in question are peculiar to such property or
immediately adjoining property.” The substandard lot size, unique lot shape, and the location of the
existing structures on the lot are unique conditions to this specific property. This criterion is met.
B9. “The conditions do not apply generally to other land or structures in the district in which the land is
located.” While the surrounding properties are similar in size, the shape of the lot and location of
the existing structures on the property are unique to the subject property. This criterion is met.
B10. “The granting of the application is necessary for the preservation and enjoyment of a substantial
property right of the applicant.” The existing home does not have a compliant building envelope
and therefore any addition requires multiple variances. However, there is an existing home
allowing for reasonable use of the property. This criterion is not met.
B11. “The granting of the proposed variance will not in any way impair health, safety, comfort or morals,
or in any other respect be contrary to the intent of this chapter.” Granting the requested variances
would be contrary to the intent of the zoning chapter. This criterion is not met.
B12. “The granting of such variance will not merely serve as a convenience to the applicant, but is
necessary to alleviate demonstrable difficulty.” The variances to construct a new addition appears to
be more of a convenience not supported by demonstratable practical difficult. This criterion is not
met.

1. Purpose. To reduce the statutory debt levy requirement for the Series 2014A GO Bonds.
2. Background. Minnesota Statute 475.61 requires the City to collect at least 105% of the
annual amount needed for principal and interest payment obligations on the bonds. The 105%
requirement can be met through taxes, special assessments, transfers from other funds, or cash on
hand.
A portion of the 2014A bond proceeds were used for the construction of the Police
Garage/Addition. The transfer of the residual balance of the retired 2010 Bond debt service fund
into the 2014 Bond Fund will allow the city to reduce the 2024 debt service levy. Hennepin
County requires the passage of a resolution to reduce the annual debt service levy.

1. Purpose. The purpose of this agenda item is to adopt the 2024 Preliminary Tax Levy.
2. Background. By State Law the City is required to adopt a preliminary property tax levy by
September 30th. Once adopted, the preliminary levy may be reduced, but it cannot be increased. The
property tax levy has seven components. The first is the operating levy which is adopted to fund the
General Fund Operating Budget and is increasing by $904,100 (16.3%). Next is the Facilities Levy is
remaining steady at the 2023 amount. The Fire Capital levy in the amount of $375,000, is dedicated to
fire capital need. The Pavement Management Levy is remaining at the 2023 level. The levy for parks is
being increased by $50,000 (33.3%). The Community Investment levy is being reduced by $19,000
(8.7%) and is dedicated for projects of citywide value. The final levy component is the Debt Service levy
which will be reduced by $182,000 by using previously accumulated debt service funds. The breakdown
of the Tax Levy is as follows.
General Fund - Operating $6,545,100
Facilities $375,000
Fire Capital Fund $275,000
Pavement Management $1,000,000
Parks $200,000
Community Investment 200,000
Debt Service $820,000
Total $9,415,100
When compared to the 2023 tax levy, the levy is increasing by $1,028,100 or 12.3%. Based on current
information from the Hennepin County, adoption of this levy would result in a slight decrease in the
City’s tax rate.

AGENDA ITEM
Prepared By: RJO Reviewed By: A. Carlson Approved By:
1. Purpose. The purpose of this agenda item is adopting the 2024 Preliminary General Fund Budget.
2. Background. Staff has been working on the 2024 General Fund budget since May. As part of the
budget process, there have been three meetings with the Budget Committee. The full council was
included in the process during work sessions in June, July, August and September.
General Fund Expenditure Budget. The 2024 expenditure budget is $11,536,630 which is an increase
of $543,353 (4.9%) over the 2023 budget. The largest increase is in Personal Services (Wages and
Benefits) in the amount of $462,700. Professional Services is increasing by $319,148 (19.34%) as the
result of an increase of $138,638 in the Long Lake fire budget and $100,750 in IT Services. Transfers to
Other Funds is decreasing by $200,000 (50.0%). This reflects the creation of the New Fire Capital Fund
for fund fire equipment purchases.
Detailed information can be found in the budget attachment.
General Fund Revenues. For revenues, the General Fund budget also totals $11,536,630 and is
increasing by $543,353 (4.9%). The General Fund property tax levy represents 56.7% of the revenue
budget, and is increasing by $904,100. The rest of the General Fund revenues are from non-tax sources
with the large of these being from service contracts with surrounding cities. By working cooperatively
with neighboring cities, we are able to provide enhanced service at a lower cost by eliminating overhead
and duplication of service.
3. Next Steps. Tonight’s action only approves the preliminary budget. Prior to adoption of the final
budget, the City will hold a public hearing (TNT) at the council meeting scheduled for November 27th,
2023 at 6:00 pm. The purpose of the TNT meeting is to allow public comment on the budget and levy
prior to the budget’s adoption and December 11th. Between now and the TNT meeting, staff will be
working with the Budget Committee on the 2024 Fee Schedule and Capital Improvement Plan. These
items will also be approved at the meeting on December 11th.
4. Staff Recommendation. Staff recommends approval of resolution 7407, adopting the 2024
Preliminary General Fund Budget.
COUNCIL ACTION REQUESTED
A motion to adopt Resolution No. 7407 adopting the 2024 Preliminary General Fund Budget.

Section:
Finance Report
The city began the budget process at the beginning of June with the
various city departments completing their budget request forms.
Departments then met with the City Administrator and the Finance
Director to review their budget requests. Upon completion of the
reviews, the draft preliminary General Fund budget was discussed by
the Budget Committee and the full council was updated during work
sessions. The Preliminary General Fund Budget and Tax Levy will
be adopted by the Council on September 25th, 2023.
Tax Levy. The tax levy is used to fund the general operations of the
City (General Fund), pay the debt service on the City’s outstanding
bonds, and to fund the Pavement Management (PMP), Building,
Facilities, Community Investment, Fire Capital and Park Funds.
The total tax levy required to fund the 2024 draft budget is
$9,415,100. This is an increase of $1,028,100 or 12.26% over the
2023 levy. The additional $904,100 for the General Fund represents
the largest increase in the levy. The increase is needed to cover a
budgeted 3% increase in employee wages, an increase in employee
insurance contributions, and the establishment of the Orono Fire
Department.
Other levy increases include $275,000 for the recently created Fire
Facilities Fund. The levies for the Community Investment Fund and
the 2014 Debt Service Funds are being reduced by $19,000 and
$182,000. The additional $50,000 for Parks continues the Council’s
commitment to adequately fund park infrastructure and better
maintain current facilities.
There are also a couple of reductions in the levy amounts. The
decrease in the 2014 debt service reflects the fund’s current balance
and its 2024 debt service needs. The Community Investment Fund
levy is used to fund projects that are of general benefit to the
Community. This portion of the levy is being reduced by $19,000 to
$200,000. The fund has adequate funding for future needs with the
$200,000 levy.
Tax Capacity Rate and the Impact of the Tax Levy on Property
Owners. The County Assessor provides an annual calculation of the
City’s tax capacity based on the annual property revaluation. As of
June, the City’s taxable market value is $4,912,740,729 with a tax
capacity of $57,000.00. When compared to last year, taxable market
value has increased by 12.33% and the tax capacity by 12.26%. As
a result of the City’s increased tax capacity, the tax capacity rate is
projected to decrease to 16.52%; one of the lowest rates in both
Hennepin County, and the State of Minnesota.
Using this tax rate and assuming no change in a property’s value, the
City’s share of the property tax bill would decrease slightly when
compared to 2023. The actual tax impact on any particular property
will depend on how the property’s taxable value changed in relation
to the rest of the City. Tables illustrating a 5% increase in value and
a 5% decrease in value are included with this budget document.
General Fund Budget.
General Fund Expenditures. The 2024 preliminary expenditure
budget is $11,536,630 which is an increase of $543,360 (4.92%)
over the 2023 budget. The largest increase is in Personal Services
(Wages and Benefits) in the amount of $462,700. Professional
Services is increasing by $319,148 (19.34%) as the result of an
increase of $138,638 in the Long Lake fire budget and $100,750 in
IT Services. Transfers to Other Funds is decreasing by $200,000
(50.0%). This reflects the creation of the New Fire Capital Fund for
fund fire equipment purchases.
By Department, the significant increases are: Mayor Council is
increasing $$17,650 (41.29%). Elections are increasing $41,600
(107%) with 2024 being an election year. A change in budgeting for
the custodian and a reallocation of insurance expenditures has the
Central Services is increasing $52,500 (16.46%). The Fire Budget is
increasing by $644,838 (LL $138,638, Orono $506,200). The Police

Tax Levy

budget is increasing by $263,010 (4.7.3%) as the result of wages,
benefits, and squad replacement costs. Street Maintenance is
increasing $69,050 (11.33%). This is the result of wages, increased
maintenance costs, and IT Services. The Golf Course is being
removed from the General Fund resulting in a $364,800 reduction.
The annual transfer for fire equipment has been replaced with a tax
levy directly to the Fire Capital Fund. As a result, transfers are
decreasing by $200,000 (50%).
Additional information on general fund departments can be found in
the information included with this document.
General Fund Revenues. For revenues, the General Fund budget
totals $11,536,630 and is increasing by $566,360 (5.2%). The
General Fund property tax levy is increasing by $904,100 (16.3%).
The other significant to the revenue budget is the removal of the Golf
Course Revenue. Earlier this year, the Council approved moving the
golf course out of the General Fund and back to an enterprise fund.
Other than taxes, the main revenue source in the General Fund are
Public Safety Charges. By working cooperatively with neighboring
cities, we are able to provide expanded services to our citizens while
keeping the tax rate as low as possible. Detailed revenue
information is included with this document.
activities. The TIF Fund is used to account for revenues related to
the Orono Woods Senior Housing Development. The budgets for the
Special Revenue Funds will be adopted as part of the final budget
approved on December 11th.
Debt Service Levies. The 2024 levy for debt service is decreasing
by $182,000 to $780,000. This levy is used to pay the debt service
on the City’s outstanding bonds.

AGENDA ITEM
Prepared By: RJO Reviewed By: NJD Approved By:
1. Purpose. The purpose of this item is to gain approval of the 2024 Long Lake Fire Operating
Budget.
2. Background. The terms of the 2002 Agreement and Contract for Fire Protection between
the Cities of Long Lake, Medina, and Orono, requires the City of Long Lake to provide the next
year’s Annual Fire Services Operating Budget to the contract cities by August 15th. Long Lake
has provided the operating budget to the contract cities for their approval.
3. Cost. Contract costs are allocated to each contract city based on the following allocation
formula: 30% of each city’s call hours + 70% of property value. This amount is then multiplied
by the operating budget amount. Based on the current budget and allocation formula, Orono’s cost
for fire services will be $665,097. This is an increase of $121,097 (22%) over the 2023 budget.
In June of 2023, under the terms of the Fire Services Agreement, the city notified Long Lake that
effective July 1st, 2024 the Navarre area was being removed from the fire service area of Long
Lake Fire. This change will affect the cost allocation formula for the third and fourth quarter. As
a result, our share of expenditures for fire services under the contract will be less than the amount
shown in the current allocation formula. Staff is still in the process of determining the property
values of the area that will be removed.
4. Funding. The cost of the fire services provided by the Long Lake Fire Department will be
paid out of the Fire Department budget in the 2024 General Fund budget.
5. Staff Recommendation. Staff recommends approval of the 2024 Long Lake Fire
Department budget as presented.

AGENDA ITEM
Prepared By: J. Lemons Reviewed By: NJD Approved By:
1. Purpose. The purpose of this council action is to gain council approval by way of a resolution for a
grant application requesting funds to improve fields, enhance park, and provide parking.
2. Background. Hackberry Park currently has two T-ball fields and one multi-purpose field. The three
fields all suffer from poor drainage and growing conditions are poor. The Park currently does not have
sufficient parking to meet the need of the different sports associations that frequent the park. The intent of
the project is to provide a facility to support youth sports efforts in the area. To help offset the cost of the
project, staff is requesting that the city submit a grant application to the Hennepin County youth sports
grant program.
3. Project Scope. Renovate the Southeast T-ball field, re-locate and improve multi-use field, construct
parking lots, construct a shelter, improve drainage, remove and replace dead/dying trees.
4. Cost. The estimated cost for the project is $1,117,110. The grant proposal requests funding for
$300,000 of the cost with the city and partnerships providing the remaining balance of $817,110.
5. Funding. Funding for the City cost share for the project would come from the Parks Fund,
Stormwater Fund, Community Investment Fund and partnerships.
6. Staff Recommendation. Staff recommends approval of the attached resolution.

AGENDA ITEM
Prepared By: J. Lemons Reviewed By: NJD Approved By:
1. Purpose. The purpose of the action item is to seek approval for the Pickleball masterplan concept
services from Bolton & Menk.
2. Background / Summary. The Park Commission has made the effort to introduce Pickleball into the
Orono Parks for the last two years. The Park Commission developed a site analysis of all potential sites
within the Orono parks. The top three sites were the golf course, Bederwood Park, and the site behind the
fire station #1. The initial plan was to develop Pickleball at the Orono Golf Course. After receiving
community input on the location, the Park Commission explored alternate sites for Pickleball. The
Pickleball sub-committee found that Bederwood Park and the property behind the fire station were the
most realistic solutions in introducing Pickleball in Orono. The property behind the current fire Station
#1 has been selected as a viable site for the project.
3. Concept Services. Bolton & Menk will engage with staff and the Pickleball sub-committee to
produce a site analysis and conceptual plans for the project. Bolton & Menk will also provide a
masterplan executive summary upon completion. The Park Commission will use these documents to
engage with the community on the project.
4. Cost. Staff received a proposal from Bolton & Menk for a total of $9800. The quote is broken up
into $7300 for masterplan concept development and $2500 for the masterplan executive summary. The
cost of the design services will come from the Parks Fund.
