Title: Body Armor Purchase
1.Purpose:
The purpose is to gain approval to purchase rifle rated ballistic plates.
2.Background:
The police department is seeking authorization to purchase rifle rated ballistic plates to be worn
with our current soft body armor. Our current body armor offers limited protection from rounds
fired from a rifle. These rifle plates would give the officers the added protection from rifle
rounds. Several companies were contacted for information and two companies have been
contacted and submitted quotes for the rifle rated ballistic plates. Both are very similar in pricing
for the plates. We are continuing to evaluate each on weight and thickness of the panels but seek
authorization to approve purchase to assist with expediting the sizing, ordering and delivery of the
rifle plates.
3.Cost:
The cost of the rifle rated ballistic plates will be approximately $1000.00 per officer. The price
will vary slightly depending on the size of the plate the officer needs to accommodate them.
4.Funding:
Funding for these rifle rated ballistic plates will be through the Police Capital Fund.
5.Staff Recommendation:
Recommend approval to purchase rifle rated ballistic plates for police officers from either Alpha
Training and Tactics LLC or Angel Armor for the estimated cost of $30,000 plus shipping and
handling.
AGENDA ITEM
COUNCIL ACTION REQUESTED
Motion to approve the purchase of rifle rated plates from Angel Armor or Alpha Training and Tactics
for added ballistic protection for police officers.

Title: Mower Purchase
1.Purpose:
The purpose of this item is to gain authorization to purchase a zero turn mower for Big Island
2.Background:
Weekly maintenance occurs on Big Island and mowing the trails and open spaces is a large part of
the maintenance. The parks department currently has a zero-turn mower stored at the park. After
an inspection by the Fleet Supervisor, it was determined that the mower would not last through the
rest of the mowing season. The mower has deteriorated rapidly since that inspection and is to the
point of being unusable. The repairs required to keep the mower going were deemed too costly
based on the age and condition of the mower. The Fleet Supervisor sought several quotes for
suitable replacements. All mowers were quoted with the addition of the Tractus Tire (no flats) to
cut down on tire repairs when stored on the island.
3.Cost:
Vendor Product Cost
MTI Distributing Toro 5000 Series Zero-turn $14,193.39
A1 Power Equipment Exmark FX Zero-turn $15,036.25
A1 Power Equipment Exmark 37HP Zero-turn $16,796.25
4.Funding:
Funding for the zero-turn mower will come from the Equipment Outlay fund.
5.Staff Recommendation:
Staff recommends purchasing the Toro 5000 series zero-turn mower from MTI Distributing. The
Toro mower is of high quality and Toro parts are easily sourced for when repairs are required.
AGENDA ITEM
COUNCIL ACTION REQUESTED
Motion to authorize purchase of the Toro 5000 series zero-turn mower from MTI Distributing.

APPROVING A VARIANCE FROM
MUNICIPAL ZONING CODE
SECTION 78-1279
FILE NO. LA24-000031
WHEREAS, on May 22, 2024, Peter Eskuche (hereinafter the “Applicant”), applied for a variance
from the City Code for the property addressed 3120 North Shore Drive and legally described as:
Lot 2, Block 4 and Block 3, Block 2, Crystal Bay Park including vacated View Avenue Adjoining
said Lots, according to the map or plat thereof on file and of record in the Office of the Register
of Deeds in and for said county, Hennepin County, Minnesota (hereinafter the “Property”);
WHEREAS, the Applicant has applied to the City of Orono for an average lakeshore setback
variance setback from City Code Section 78-1279 in order to construct a new deck; and
WHEREAS, on June 17, 2024, after published and mailed notice in accordance with Minnesota
Statutes and the City Code, the Planning Commission held a public hearing, at which time all persons
desiring to be heard concerning this application were given the opportunity to speak thereon; and
WHEREAS, on June 17, 2024, the Planning Commission voted 7 to 0 in favor of a motion to

WHEREAS, on July 8, 2024 the City Council reviewed the application and the recommendations

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 #LA24-000031. 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.
37
CITY OF ORONO
RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL
NO. 7491
2
3. The Property contains 81,188 square feet in area and has a defined lot width of 150 feet at the 75-
foot lakeshore setback and a lot width of 152 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. Average Lakeshore Setback
6. In considering this application for variance s, 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 . . . .” An average lakeshore setback variance is required for the reconstruction and
expansion of the lakeside deck on the property. The current deck abuts the average lakeshore
setback line and is proposed to encroach 6.7 feet. The intent of the ordinance is to preserve and
protect lake views enjoyed from neighboring properties. The neighboring properties are not
impacted by the minor deck expansion as the house is setback over 100 feet from the lake. All other
setbacks including the 75-foot lake setback are met. The hardcover on the subject property will
continue to be below the maximum of 25%. This criterion is met.
2. “Variances shall only be permitted . . . when the variances are consistent with the comprehensive
plan.” The variance resulting in an expanded lakeside deck is consistent with the comprehensive
plan. There have been instances when the City has granted variances from average lakeshore
setback when the proposal does not disrupt neighboring views of the lake and is not within the 75 -
foot setback. The proposed expansion is minor and is not likely to impact any lake views. 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 current deck abuts the average lakeshore setback and any expansion would likely
require a variance. The existing deck is shallow and the expansion creates a more
38
CITY OF ORONO
RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL
NO. 7491
3
reasonable shaped deck. The proposal preserves the intent of the ordinance by not
disrupting any neighboring lake views. This criterion is met.
b. The plight of the landowner is due to circumstances unique to his property not created by the
landowner.
The location of the neighboring homes is out of the control of the homeowner. The
applicant is requesting the average lakeshore setback variance to construct an expanded
deck to a more reasonable size and shape; and
c. The variance, if granted, will not alter the essential character of the locality.”
The proposed variance resulting in an expanded lakeside deck will not alter the character
of the locality. The project will meet the 75-foot lake setback, meet hardcover requirements
and limit impact to the neighbors. 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 existing position of the property in relation to the neighboring
homes is unique. The neighboring properties will not have th eir lake view impacted by the proposed
deck expansion. 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 deck. 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 deck expansion allows the property owner to fully enjoy
39
CITY OF ORONO
RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL
NO. 7491
4
the deck and lakeyard. The minor expansion does not negatively impact the neighboring properties or
their views of the lake. 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 variance 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 reconstruction and
expansion of a lakeside deck that will encroach 6.7 feet into the average lakeshore setback. The
proposed addition will allow the current property owners to fully use and enjoy deck and lakeyard
and is a reasonable expansion. 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 of a deck within the average
lakeshore setback subject to the following conditions:
1. Council approval is based on the entire record, above Findings .
2. The approved project shall conform to the attached site plan and building plans submitted by the
Applicant and annotated by City staff (hereinafter the “Plans”), attached to this Resolution a s
Exhibits A & B.
3. Any amendments to the plans which are not in conformity with City codes may require further
Planning Commission and City Council review.
4. Authorities granted by this resolution run with the Property not with the Applicants, but are
permissive only and must be exercised by obtaining a building permit for the new construction and
commencing construction of said project. A framing inspection must be completed within one year
of the date of Council approval, or the variance will expire on that date (July 8, 2025).
5. Violation of or non-compliance with any of the terms and conditions of this resolution may result
in the termination of any authority granted herein.

approximately 61% (25 square feet). The proposed sign requires variances from total sign area as
well as percentage of digital sign area.

APPROVING VARIANCES FROM
MUNICIPAL ZONING CODE
SECTION 78-1478 & 78-1479
FILE NO. LA24-000032
WHEREAS, on May 22, 2024, Good Shepherd Lutheran Church (hereinafter the “Applicant”),
applied for variances from the City Code for the property addressed 3745 Shoreline Drive and legally
described as:
Lot 5, Block 7, Townsite of Langdon Park, Hennepin County, Minnesota (hereinafter the

WHEREAS, the Applicant has applied to the City of Orono for sign variances from City Code

WHEREAS, on June 17, 2024, after published and mailed notice in accordance with Minnesota

desiring to be heard concerning this application were given the opportunity to speak thereon; and

reference.
2. The Property is located in the LR-1C One Family Lakeshore Residential Zoning District.
47
CITY OF ORONO
RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL

3. The Property is within Tier 3 and hardcover is limited to 35 % according to the Stormwater Quality
Overlay District.
4. Applicant has applied for the following variances:
a. Permitted Sign Area
b. Changeable Message Sign
5. 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 subject property currently contains a freestanding sign on the property.
The existing sign is nonconforming, but permitted to remain and to be replaced. The proposal is to
replace the sign with a new, modernized sign of the same size. The dimensions of the changeable
copy area is also nonconforming for the existing sign The proposal will modify the manual
changeable copy area to a digital display. The new sign is not increasing the nonconformity and
therefore in harmony with the general intent and purpose of the ordinance. The new digital display
will not impact neighboring residential properties. This criterion is met.
2. “Variances shall only be permitted . . . when the variances are consistent with the comprehensive
plan.” The replacement of a nonconforming sign is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan. The
applicant has identified the necessary practical difficulties inherent to the land supporting their
requests. The proposal will meet all other zoning requirements. 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 addition of a digital display sign for a place of worship is a reasonable improvement.
The existing sign on the property is nonconforming as it relates to area and amount of
changeable copy area and this will not increase with the proposed replacement sign. A
digital display will allow Good Shepherd Lutheran Church to adequately present
information to their congregation without impacting any residential properties. This
criterion is met.
48
CITY OF ORONO
RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL
NO. 7492

b. The plight of the landowner is due to circumstances unique to his property not created by the
landowner.
The existing sign size and location is not the result of the current property owner’s actions;
and
c. The variance, if granted, will not alter the essential character of the locality.”
The proposed variance resulting in a new sign of the same size and location will not alter
the character of the locality. A digital display sign for a place of worship is common and
will be used to display mass times, events, and other important messages. There will be no
animation or blinking lights and is not visible from neighboring residential properties. The
church is located on a major roadway abutting the City’s commercial district (Navarre).
The proposed sign would be in line with the character along Shoreline Drive. 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 sign is permitted on the subject property.
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 size and composition of the existing sign is unique and specific
to the 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 unique and existing conditions do not apply to other properties in the neighborhood or
district. 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 sign is in need of replacement. The manual changeable
49

RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL
NO. 7492
4
copy area is difficult for the church to manage in the cold weather months. A digital display message
would greatly improve the communication for Good Shepherd Lutheran Church to their congregation
without negatively impacting any neighboring properties. 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 variance would
allow a new sign to be built that is the same size and location as the existing sign on the property. The
proposed change from manual changeable copy to a digital display is the only difference. The digital
display will follow all regulations and will not have any animation or blinking lights that would distract
drivers along Shoreline Drive. The digital display will also not be visible from any neighboring
residential properties. 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 sign area variances will allow Good Shepherd
Lutheran Church to replace a sign with a modern digital display. The existing sign has proven to be
difficult to manage and the updated sign will allow for better communication for the church to their
congregation. This criterion is met.
CONCLUSIONS, ORDER AND CONDITIONS:
Based upon one or more of the above findings, the Orono City Council hereby grants variances
from Orono Municipal Zoning Code Sections 78-1478 and 78-1479 to allow the construction of a deck
replacement of a freestanding sign with a digital display.
1. Council approval is based on the entire record, above Findings.
2. The approved project shall conform to the attached sign plans submitted by the Applicant and
annotated by City staff (hereinafter the “Plans”), attached to this Resolution as Exhibit A.
3. Any amendments to the plans which are not in conformity with City codes may require further
Planning Commission and City Council review.
4. Authorities granted by this resolution run with the Property not with the Applicants, but are
permissive only and must be exercised by obtaining a building permit for the construction and
commencing construction of said project. A building permit must be obtained within one year of
the date of Council approval, or the variance will expire on that date (July 8, 2025).
5. Violation of or non-compliance with any of the terms and conditions of this resolution may result
in the termination of any authority granted herein.

3. The Property contains 32,927 square feet in area and has a defined lot width of 130 feet at the 75-
foot lakeshore setback and a lot width of 130 feet at the OHWL.

Overlay District.
5. Applicant has applied for the following variances:
a. 75-foot Lake Setback

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 property includes difficulties in the location of the existing home and existing site conditions.
The requested changes are minimal and do not expand the footprint or increase hardcover. This
criterion has been met.

plan.” The proposed variance to allow a remodel of an existing, nonconforming home without
increasing hardcover is consistent with the comprehensive plan. This criterion is met.
3. “Variances may be granted when the applicant for the variance establishes that there are practical

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 request to permit a minor entryway modification within the 75-foot setback appears to
be reasonable considering the location of the existing home. This criterion is met.
b. The plight of the landowner is due to circumstances unique to his property not created by the
landowner.
56
CITY OF ORONO
RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL

The location of the existing home prevents changes or expansions of the home consistent
with the neighborhood. The proposed overall hardcover level is not changing. The
circumstances are unique to the property; and
c. The variance, if granted, will not alter the essential character of the locality.”
The variance requested to permit the modification to the home’s entryway and roofline are
not visible from the lake and do not expand the footprint or increase hardcover. The
proposal will not alter the character of the neighborhood. 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-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 existing home’s proximity to the lakeshore and the existing
conditions of the site are unique to the site. 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 unique condition of the nonconforming home and site does not apply to other properties
in the area. 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.” Granting the variance is necessary for the preservation of the property
rights of the owners. 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 variance in
this unique situation is not contrary to the intent of the zoning chapter. This criterion is met.

Presenter: Melanie Curtis, Planner
Section: Consent Agenda
Title: #LA24-000033, 1448 Baldur Park Road, Variances and CUP - Resolution
7493
1.Purpose:
This application contemplates variances and a conditional use permit (CUP) in order to redevelop
the property with a new home.
2.MN§15.99 Application Deadline:
The application was received on May 22, 2024, and considered to be complete on June 4. The 60-
day review period expires on August 30, 2024.
3.Background:
The applicants requested variances to construct a new 2 ½-story home. The new home is proposed
to meet all of the required setbacks except the rear setback where they request a 29 foot setback
where a 30-foot setback is required. Their plan also requires a variance to permit a 24.5-foot-wide
driveway at the property line where a maximum width of 20 feet is allowed (plus flares).
A variance to permit 31.9% hardcover where 25% is permitted and 33.1% currently exists is
requested. Because of the need for the above variances, lot area and lot width variances are also
required. They propose to elevate the home on fill to achieve positive drainage away from the
home on the flat lot. This elevation requires establishment of a 15-foot-wide perimeter rescue
bench with an elevation of at least 931.5’ around the home. The property's narrow width limits
their ability to achieve the 15-foot elevation bench, therefore a CUP is also required.
Please refer to the Planning Commission staff report for a full analysis and background. The
applicants will resolve the building footprint/structural coverage overage with their revised
building permit plans. No structural coverage variance is requested.
4.Planning Commission Vote and Comment:
The Planning Commission held a public hearing on June 17th . Following the public hearing and
discussion, the Commission voted 7 to 0 in favor of approving the application as follows:
1. Approval of lot width and lot area variances to redevelop the property;
2. Approval of the rear setback variance allowing a 29 foot setback where 30 feet is required;
3. Approval of a hardcover variance allowing 32% hardcover where 25% is permitted;
4. Approval of a variance allowing the 24.5 foot wide driveway (as drawn) where 20 feet is
permitted; and
5. Approval of a CUP to allow deviation from the required 15-foot elevation bench as shown
on the proposed site plan.
The driveway width variance was supported by the Commission because they recognize the
challenges with parking on Baldur Park Road, particularly with the property's proximity to the
intersection with Birch Lane. Regarding the rear yard setback variance, the Commission cited the
AGENDA ITEM
95
setback improvement resulting from the applicants' removal of the existing nonconforming
detached garage which was situated 9 feet from the rear property line and 5 feet from the
neighboring property line.
5.Public Comment:
Supportive comments from the neighbors were provided after the Planning Commission packet
publication. Comments are attached as Exhibit D.
6.Staff Recommendation:
Staff recommends approval of the variances and CUP to construct the new home as applied,
conditioned upon the applicants reducing the building footprint so the project conforms to the 20%
lot coverage limitation.

Council should make a motion to adopt Resolution No. 7493.

WHEREAS, on May 22, 2024, the property owners, Ryan Muhlbauer and Sarah Frakes
Muhlbauer (hereinafter the “Applicants”), applied for a conditional use permit and variances from
the City Code for the property addressed 1448 Baldur Park Road and legally described as:

where 25% is normally allowed; and
WHEREAS, included in their application is a request for a variance from City Code

time all persons desiring to be heard concerning this application were given the opportunity to
speak thereon; and

RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL
NO. 7493

WHEREAS, on June 17, 2024, the Planning Commission recommended approval of the
CUP and variances as noted above; and
WHEREAS, on July 8, 2024, the City Council reviewed the application and the
recommendations of the Planning Commission and City staff; and
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the City Council of Orono, Minnesota
hereby approves the requested variances and CUP as described above based on one or more
of the following findings of fact concerning the Property:
FINDINGS OF FACT:
A1. The analysis contained within staff memos and the exhibits attached to the aforesaid
memos, all minutes from the above-mentioned meetings, and all other materials
distributed at these meetings are hereby incorporated by reference.
A2. The Property is located in the LR-1C One Family, Lakeshore Residential Zoning District.
A3. The Property contains 0.23 acres in area and has a defined lot width of 38 feet at the
OHWL and 50.5 feet at the 75-foot setback.
A4. The Property is within Tier 1 and hardcover is limited to 25% according to the
Stormwater Quality Overlay District.
A5. Applicant has applied for the following approvals:
a. Lot Width Variance
b. Lot Area Variance
c. Hardcover Variance
d. Driveway Width Variance
e. Conditional Use Permit – Floodplain Rescue Bench
A6. In considering this application for variances and CUP, 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 proposed variances are in harmony
98
CITY OF ORONO
RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL
NO. 7493
3
with the purpose of the Ordinance. The substandard lot has difficulties in its small size
and narrow width, the lack of on-street parking, and the low elevation of the Property
making development difficult.
B2. “Variances shall only be permitted . . . when the variances are consistent with the
comprehensive plan.” The variances requested to rebuild a new home on this
nonconforming lot are consistent with the comprehensive plan.
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
request to allow construction of a new residence on the substandard lot is
reasonable. The proposed hardcover is a reduction from the existing condition.
b. The plight of the landowner is due to circumstances unique to his property not
created by the landowner. The substandard lot size is an existing condition, and
there is no additional land available to make the Property more conforming. The
restricted roadway, low topography, lot size and shape, and location are
challenges not created by the owners. It is reasonable to grant variances for the
Property which is substandard regarding lot size. The project has been designed
with an effort toward limiting the additional hardcover without sacrificing
functionality; and
c. The variance, if granted, will not alter the essential character of the locality.” The
variances are requested to permit the construction of a new home on the
Property, which is reasonable.
B4. “Economic considerations alone do not constitute practical difficulties.” 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
99
CITY OF ORONO
RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL
NO. 7493
4
land is located.” This condition is not applicable, as a single-family residence is an
allowed use in the LR-1C 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 Property’s substandard size, location,
elevation, and unique configuration create difficulties that also apply to many of the
properties in the same neighborhood. The proposed setback and hardcover level are
not out of character.
B9. “The conditions do not apply generally to other land or structures in the district in which
the land is located.” The Property’s substandard area and width create difficulties
similar to other properties in the City. The neighboring properties have similar
challenges.
B10. “The granting of the application is necessary for the preservation and enjoyment of a
substantial property right of the applicant.” The proposed size of the home will conform
to the 20% building coverage limit. Reduction of the driveway footprint would result in
additional pressure on the roadway for guest parking creating pressure on the
neighborhood. Granting of the lot area and width, setback, and hardcover variances
are necessary for the preservation of the property rights of the owners.
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
variances for lot size, hardcover, and rear setback in this situation is not contrary to the
intent of the zoning chapter.
B12. “The granting of such variance will not merely serve as a convenience to the applicant,
but is necessary to alleviate demonstrable difficulty.” Without variances the Property is
unbuildable. The variances for lot size, setback, and hardcover are necessary and do
not merely serve as a convenience to the Applicants.
CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT ANALYSIS:
The City Council may grant a CUP based on the application and the evidence submitted, the
City must find that the proposed use on the Property is or will be:
C1. Consistent with the community management plan; the proposed development of the
property for residential use is consistent with the community management plan.
100
CITY OF ORONO
RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL
NO. 7493

C2. Compliant with the zoning code, including any conditions imposed on specific uses as
required by article V, division 3 of the City Code; except the currently requested
variances, the project will conform to all applicable zoning requirements.
C3. Adequately served by police, fire, roads, and stormwater management; in the opinion
of staff, this criterion is met.
C4. Provided with an adequate water supply and sewage disposal system; in the opinion of
staff, this criterion is met.
C5. Not expected to generate excessive demand for public services at public cost; in the
opinion of staff, this criterion is met.
C6. Compatible with the surrounding area as the area is used both presently and as it is
planned to be used in the future; the development of the Property for residential use is
compatible and consistent with the neighborhood and surrounding uses.
C7. Consistent with the character of the surrounding area, unless a change of character is
called for in the community management plan; the development of the Property for
residential use is compatible and consistent with the neighborhood and surrounding
uses.
C8. Compatible with the character of buildings and site improvements in the surrounding
area, unless a change of character is called for in the community management plan; in
the opinion of staff this criterion is met.
C9. Not expected to substantially impair the use and enjoyment of the property in the area
or have a materially adverse impact on the property values in the area when compared
to the impairment or impact of generally permitted uses; if it is determined that the
request includes grading and filling within the 100-year floodplain it shall be reviewed
by Minnehaha Creek Watershed District. The proposed reduction of the rescue bench
will not have an adverse impact on the neighborhood.
C10. Provided with screening and buffering adequate to mitigate undesirable views and
activities likely to disturb surrounding uses; The project should not result in undesirable
views or sustained activity such as disturbing neighbors.

C11. Not create a nuisance which generates smoke, noise, glare, vibration, odors, fumes,
dust, electrical interference, general unsightliness, or other means; The Applicants
shall adhere to the City’s erosion control regulations as well as the permitting
requirements of the MCWD. Timely re-vegetation and stabilization will be a
requirement of the permitting process. The project should not result in a nuisance
condition.
C12. Not cause excessive non-residential traffic on residential streets, parking needs that
cause a demonstrable inconvenience to adjoining properties, traffic congestion, or
unsafe access; the Applicants shall keep debris off of the public roadways; a haul route
should be provided. The noise resulting from the trucks and equipment moving the
material in and around the site should be minimized to the extent possible. The project
will be evaluated and monitored by the City Engineer and planning staff to minimize
nuisances during the project.
C13. Designed to take into account the natural, scenic, and historic features of the area and
to minimize environmental impact; the overall long-term effect of the project should
result in minimal if any environmental impacts.
C14. All exterior lighting shall be so directed so as not to cast glare toward or onto the public
right-of-way or neighboring residential uses or districts; this project should result in no
additional non-residential lighting or glare; and
C15. Not detrimental to the public health, public safety, or general welfare. The project
should not be a detriment to the public health, public safety, or general welfare.

Hi Ryan,
Please see my below letter in support of the application. I am not sure if the format is correct.
Dear Orono Council,
We are writing in support of application number LA24-000033. We live at 3490 Birch Lane which is
adjacent to the property proposed for redevelopment at 1448 Baldur Park Road.
We have reviewed the building plans and application in detail. We wholeheartedly support the property
redevelopment and proposed variances. We believe the application should be approved by the council.
Feel free to contact us if needed.

Dear Ms. Curtis,
I live a few houses away from the address affected by this application, and I am writing in support of it.
As the application notes, this is a particularly challenging lot to build on, and the requested variances are really
necessary for the applicants to get reasonable use and enjoyment of the property. It is clear the Muhlbauers have
carefully designed their new home to be as compliant as possible and to achieve the spirit of the zoning regulations
in the few cases where they cannot achieve full compliance. In many cases what they propose will be a big
improvement compared to the existing home on the property in terms of hardcover, setbacks, and protection of the
neighbors’ interests. The proposed new home is consistent with the character of the neighborhood.
My only suggestion regards the two changes recommended by planning staff. Given the vast improvements in
setbacks and hardcover, it seems petty to require the Muhlbauers to remove a small piece of their driveway and
downsize the front porch. I ask the Planning Commission to consider approving the application as originally
submitted without the notch out of the driveway and the downsized porch.
Cordially yours,
Richard J Rohrer

Dear Orono Resident,
Saturday, August 3 will be the 19th annual Tour de Tonka Bike Ride. Tour de Tonka is a
ride, not a race. The bike ride will pass by your home sometime between 7:15 and 10:00 a.m. on
the morning of Saturday, August 5.
You will not have riders steadily passing your home, rather they will come by either early, mid
or late morning. Feel free to come curb side and wave or cheer the riders on – it is a festive day
for the riders, and I would hope for you as well.
Tour de Tonka raises funds for community education programs as well as for the ICA Food
Shelf.
For more information on Tour de Tonka, please visit: www.tourdetonka.org. Volunteers are also
needed for this major event. Please call Lauren at 952-401-4157 or email
lauren.riedel@minnetonkaschools.org if you would like to get involved.
Thank you for your cooperation with this major community event.
Sincerely,
Tim Litfin
Executive Director, Minnetonka Community Education

The application was submitted on March 20, 2024 and considered to be complete on June 10,
2024. The 60 day review timeline will expire on August 9, 2024.
3.Background:
The applicant, Matt Jasper, is the new owner of the property. The lakeshore slope of the subject
property is defined as a bluff.
Mr. Jasper proposes to install a new, stone lake access stair with retaining wall-supported landings
and a retaining wall, upslope from new rip-rap along the shoreline. The retaining walls, including
the walls supporting the stairs, require conditional use permit approval due to their location within
the bluff and 75-foot lake setback. The approvals requested to allow construction of the new 180
square foot lakeside shed have been withdrawn by the applicant.
Please refer to the Planning Staff report for full details and analysis.
4.Planning Commission Vote and Comment:
On June 17th, the Planning Commission reviewed the application. Following a lengthy discussion,
the Commission voted 6 - 0 - 1 in favor of recommending denial as applied. Having arrived late,
Commissioner Kraemer abstained from the vote.
The Commission's motion including the following:
Walls. Support for the proposed walls. The applicant was directed to submit additional
documentation substantiating the need for all of the proposed walls;
Landscaping. The Commission directed the applicant to provide a detailed landscape plan
to stabilize the slope; and
Shed. The variances for the proposed shed/boathouse were not supported.
City Code allows one 20 square foot lock box (having a maximum height of 48 inches) and one
pump house of the same dimensions within the shore setback. An administrative zoning permit is
required to construct a lock box or pump house on the property.
5.Staff Recommendation:
The applicant has provided a revised site plan and updated engineering information supporting the
need for the walls (Exhibit B). Additionally, a revised landscape plan was provided which reflects
placement of sumac on the slope and forsythia along the shore placed on top of the new wall, and
AGENDA ITEM

A6. In considering this application for CUP and 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.
CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT ANALYSIS:
The City Council may approve a CUP for the construction of retaining walls as long as the
walls are:
B1. Designed to correct an established erosion problem; the applicant indicated that the
new walls are necessary to provide stability at the base of the bluff just above the rip
rap. They assert that the use of the wall will avoid the need to grade further inland to
create stability. The Applicant has provided a landscape plan for the slope which
includes deep-rooted plants and shrubs in addition to the proposed walls. This
criterion has been met; and
B2. Suitable given the demonstrated need; A global stability analysis by Ronald W.
Vickery, PE was provided, The analysis notes a retaining wall would improve the
stability of the bluff. This criterion has been met; and
B3. Designed by a registered engineer or landscape architect, depending on the project
scope; the Applicant has provided a revised retaining wall design from a registered
engineer which matches the submitted plans. This criterion has been met; and
B4. Designed to be the minimum size necessary to control the erosion problem. The
engineer’s revised analysis indicated that the Applicant’s revised plan was necessary
to stabilize the bluff. The wall plan has been changed/lessened from the original
proposal and beneficial vegetation has been proposed to supplement new walls
within the shore setback. This criterion has been met.
Based on the application and the evidence submitted, the Council finds that the proposed use
at the proposed location is or will be:
B5. Consistent with the community management plan; the applicant has provided a
landscape plan which, when matured, should offer sufficient screening of the lake
access stairs and walls. This criterion is met.
146
CITY OF ORONO
RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL
NO. 7486

B6. Compliant with the zoning code, including any conditions imposed on specific uses as
required by article V, division 3 of the City Code; retaining walls within the lakeyard are
permitted where they are deemed necessary to protect the integrity of the slope. The
Applicant and the Applicant’s engineer have provided information showing that the
installation of walls is the most effective and minimal necessary to achieve the desired
stability. This criterion is met.
B7. Adequately served by police, fire, roads, and stormwater management; the Property
meets this standard.
B8. Provided with an adequate water supply and sewage disposal system; the Property
meets this standard.
B9. Not expected to generate excessive demand for public services at public cost; the
retaining wall project should not generate an excessive demand for public services at a
public cost.
B10. Compatible with the surrounding area as the area is used both presently and as it is
planned to be used in the future; the installation of the stone staircase and stone
retaining walls will be screened from the lake by the nature of their layout and the
proposed vegetation preserving the existing character of the property. This criterion is
met.
B11. Consistent with the character of the surrounding area, unless a change of character is
called for in the community management plan; installation of the set-in-grade stone
staircase and supporting stone retaining walls will be screened from the lake by the
nature of their layout, and the proposed vegetation preserving the character of the
surrounding area. This criterion is met.
B12. Compatible with the character of buildings and site improvements in the surrounding
area, unless a change of character is called for in the community management plan;
the proposed landscape plan should screen the stair system and associated retaining
walls from view from the lake. Due to deferred maintenance, the current natural
appearance of the property could be minimally altered by the proposed stone stair and
retaining wall improvements. This criterion is met.
B13. Not expected to substantially impair the use and enjoyment of the property in the area
or have a materially adverse impact on the property values in the area when compared
147
CITY OF ORONO
RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL
NO. 7486
5
to the impairment or impact of generally permitted uses; the lakeshore bluff
improvements should not impact the neighboring property values or the enjoyment of
the neighboring property owners.
B14. Provided with screening and buffering adequate to mitigate undesirable views and
activities likely to disturb surrounding uses; the applicant has provided a landscape
plan which should provide adequate natural screening and buffering of the stone stairs
and retaining wall improvements when viewed from the lake. This criterion is met.
B15. Not create a nuisance that generates smoke, noise, glare, vibration, odors, fumes,
dust, electrical interference, general unsightliness, or other means; the proposed walls
should not create a nuisance situation.
B16. Not cause excessive non-residential traffic on residential streets, parking needs that
cause a demonstrable inconvenience to adjoining properties, traffic congestion, or
unsafe access; the property is situated on a severe curve along a busy County
roadway. The amount of traffic, proximity, and location of the driveway, and the
topography pose challenges for access and construction. According to their narrative,
the Applicant is proposing to deliver some of the materials to the site from North Shore
Drive. The Applicant should inform Hennepin County of the project scope and timeline
and obtain necessary permits.
B17. Designed to take into account the natural, scenic, and historic features of the area and
to minimize environmental impact; the Applicant has opted to install walls using boulder
materials as a continuation of the rip-rap to be installed. They have proposed
landscaping to screen the stairway and supporting walls which should be compatible
with the character of the improvements within the surrounding area. This criterion is
met.
B18. All exterior lighting shall be so directed so as not to cast glare toward or onto the public
right-of-way or neighboring residential uses or districts; the lake yard improvements
should not result in any lighting or glare being cast off the Property toward the public
street, the neighbors, or the lake; and
B19. Not detrimental to the public health, public safety, or general welfare. This is true of the
project.

Landscape Narrative
The hillside at 4745 Northshore Drive has been severely neglected over the last
50 years. Numerous tress and branches have fallen with no maintenance to clean it up.
Although there is a heavy foliage from surrounding trees, my landscaper Chris Hagen
believes that plants will not have a problem growing in the shaded areas.
First step is to clear all leaves and brush that are preventing new plants from
growing so there is a soil capable of growth. As indicated on the bottom of the survey,
everything highlighted in yellow will have an erosion control blanket with no mow grass
(same that the city did in their easement next door) to assist in stabilization around all
affected areas (stairs/retaining walls). Orange dots represent Forsythia plants, green
dots represent sumac. The stairs will not be visible from the lake at all with the tree
coverage so there will be no negative impact as far as view is concerned. I have shared
this plan with the neighbors on both sides of me and they are extremely pleased.

Dear Mr. Jasper:
Re: Global Stability Analysis, 4745 North Shore Drive, Orono, MN (Revision 3 Letter)
As you requested, Vickery Engineering & Consulting, LLC (VEC) has prepared the Boulder Retaining
Wall Plans for the referenced project. The Boulder Wall Plans and Boulder Wall Calculations were
submitted under separate cover. As part of the design process, a global stability analysis of the proposed
slope was performed.
Attached to this letter is the results of the global stability analysis. The analysis was performed using
GSlope global stability software. The soil properties for the global stability analysis were assumed, based
on information provided by you. As you can see from the attached global stability analysis, the results of
the analysis indicate an overall global stability factor of safety of 1.378, which is in excess of the industry
standard factor of safety of 1.3. Please note, without the retaining walls, this factor of safety would be
less than 1.3. Therefore, the retaining walls and the stair system are required to stabilize the slope.
Engineering services provided by VEC engineers for this project have been conducted with that level of
care and skill ordinarily exercised by members of profession currently practicing in Minnesota under
similar time restraints and conditions. No warranty, expressed or implied, is made. Thank you for using
the services provided by VEC. If you have any questions regarding this letter, please call Ron Vickery at
952-465-8272.
I hereby certify that this plan, specification, or
report was prepared under my direct supervision
and that I am a duly Licensed Professional Engineer
under the laws of the State of Minnesota.

There were no public comments.
Chair Bollis closed the public hearing at 6:38 p.m.
Several Planning Commissioners said they could see the need to move forward with the stairs and
retaining wall. The proposed structure would not be in-kind because the existing structure that was torn
down was never permitted and the structure that was depicted on the most recent survey was much
smaller. Commissioners debated tabling the full item, denying the full application so it could move
forward to City Council, or doing a split recommendation.
Ressler moved, Kirchner seconded, to deny LA24-000018, 4745 North Shore Drive-Cup Variances

A2. The Property is guided in the 2020-2024 Community Management Plan for single-family
residential use, specified as Rural Residential which allows 1 unit per 2 acres.
184
CITY OF ORONO
RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL
NO. 7490

A3. The Property is located in the RR-1B One Family Rural Residential Zoning District which
requires a minimum of 2.0 acres and 200 feet of width.
A4. The Property contains 17.25 acres in area.
A5. The proposal would create six buildable lots; calculated at 0.34 units per acre. The proposed
density is well below the comp plan density guidance of 0.5 units per acre. As proposed, the
lot sizes are as follows:
i. Lot 1: 2.5 total acres; 2.3 dry, buildable acres.
ii. Lot 2: 3.2 total acres; 3.26 dry, buildable acres.
iii. Lot 3: A lakeshore lot with 2.75 total acres; 2.1 dry, buildable acres.
iv. Lot 4: A lakeshore lot with 4.45 total acres; 2.02 dry, buildable acres.
v. Lot 5: 2.0 total acres; contains a small wetland shared with Lot 6.
vi. Lot 6: 2.0 total acres; contains a very, small wetland shared with Lot 5.
A6. The Property is not located within the MUSA and will be served by private on-site septic
systems and private water supply wells.
A7. The Property is within the Stormwater Quality Overlay District which restricts overall
hardcover. Following Final Plat approval, the methodology outlined within City Code Section
78-1701 will be applied to assign each property to the appropriate protection tier.
A8. The existing access to the Property is proposed to be upgraded and platted as a private
road outlot with a cul-de-sac off of Sixth Avenue North (CSAH 6), a public street.
A9. The Developer has prepared grading plans to manage stormwater on-site without negatively
impacting adjacent parcels.
A10. The Developer has proposed a master grading plan that includes the establishment of
building pads on each of the lots to establish a new engineered grade for building height
determination.
A11. No variances have been requested. The development of the vacant lots will be required to
meet all zoning standards.
A12. As a prerequisite to Final Plat approval, the City requires a proportionate share of the land
being developed to be conveyed to the City or dedicated to the public, for use as parks,
playgrounds, trails, or open space. For residentially zoned land, a dedication of 0.10 acres
per additional residential household being developed is required. In instances where a cash
contribution is to be made by the developer, in place of a conveyance or dedication of land,
185
CITY OF ORONO
RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL
NO. 7490
3
the cash contribution shall be equivalent to the fair market value of the land to be dedicated.
The determination of the fair market value of the undeveloped land by the city assessor, city
council, or designated appraisers shall be determined at the time of final approval. Where
the anticipated park needs are greater than the number of acres to be developed, the city
establishes a maximum park dedication fee. For residential density of 3 units per acre or
less a cap of 4 percent of the predeveloped value is applied.
The 2020-2040 Comprehensive Plan does not specify the need for a neighborhood park or
trail at this location. A park dedication of land instead would be appropriate according to the
City Ordinance.
A13. The Developer has submitted a Conservation Design Master Plan (CDMP) prepared by
Anderson Engineering which inventories and describes the environmental features of the
site, defining what natural values of the site should be preserved or enhanced and how that
should occur.
According to the CDMP, the plan includes integrating the existing natural environment to
minimize negative impacts on the current rural character. Landscaping and planting along
the northern boundary of the Property will be utilized to preserve the positive and natural
viewsheds identified along CSAH 6. The development will not impact the natural viewshed
of Lake Classen, regardless of travel direction (east or west) along CSAH 6. The CDMP
concluded that the project would not have a significant impact on natural resources, nor
would it negatively impact the existing rural character of the location.
CONCLUSIONS, ORDER AND CONDITIONS:
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, based upon one or more of the above
findings, the Orono City Council hereby grants Preliminary Plat Approval to allow subdivision of
the Property into 6 building lots, one private road outlot, and one outlot to be deeded to the
neighbors to the east for their private driveway purposes.
The preliminary plat (attached as Exhibit B) together with the stormwater grading plan will
establish building pad elevations, drainage swales, and stormwater basins. Preliminary Plat
approval is subject to the following conditions:
B1. Approval is subject to Minnehaha Creek Watershed District (hereinafter the “MCWD”)
approval and permits as required. Final Plat approval shall not be granted until the
Developer has provided evidence that all required MCWD permits have been obtained.

RE: Preliminary Plat Application
Honey Hill
Engineering Review #2
Dear Adam:
As requested, I have completed an engineering review of the Stormwater Management Plan and Master
Grading Plan submitted for the above referenced project. Following are my comments for your
consideration:
1. The applicant is proposing four infiltration basins to meet stormwater runoff management
requirements. The following should be considered regarding the proposed system:
a. Proposed infiltration basins provide 1.2’ depth for Basin 1, 1.5’ for Basins 2 and 3, and 3.0’
for Basin 4. The NPDES permit requires a drawdown of surface water within 48 hours for
infiltration basins. Based on site soils, a maximum depth of 0.8’ is allowable to meet this
requirement. Basins must be revised to provide the maximum allowable depth accordingly
or the design should be revised to include draintile and be considered filtration.
b. A minimum 8’ wide access bench must be provided around all basins to allow for future
maintenance.
c. A minimum 1’ separation should be provided between the surface overflows and top of
adjacent berms.
d. Proposed basins should be installed with street construction to ensure they are constructed
as intended.
e. Proposed basins should be vegetated with a native stormwater seed mix.
2. Consideration should be given to installing RCP for the 12” culvert proposed at approximately
station 3+11 in lieu of CMP to provide a longer lifecycle material.
If you have any questions or comments, please contact me to discuss.
Sincerely,
Bolton & Menk, Inc.

RE: Preliminary Plat Application
Honey Hill
Engineering Review #2
Dear Adam:
As requested, I have completed an engineering review of the Stormwater Management Plan and Master
Grading Plan submitted for the above referenced project. Following are my comments for your
consideration:
1. The applicant is proposing four infiltration basins to meet stormwater runoff management
requirements. The following should be considered regarding the proposed system:
a. Proposed infiltration basins provide 1.2’ depth for Basin 1, 1.5’ for Basins 2 and 3, and 3.0’
for Basin 4. The NPDES permit requires a drawdown of surface water within 48 hours for
infiltration basins. Based on site soils, a maximum depth of 0.8’ is allowable to meet this
requirement. Basins must be revised to provide the maximum allowable depth accordingly
or the design should be revised to include draintile and be considered filtration.
b. A minimum 8’ wide access bench must be provided around all basins to allow for future
maintenance.
c. A minimum 1’ separation should be provided between the surface overflows and top of
adjacent berms.
d. Proposed basins should be installed with street construction to ensure they are constructed
as intended.
e. Proposed basins should be vegetated with a native stormwater seed mix.
2. Consideration should be given to installing RCP for the 12” culvert proposed at approximately
station 3+11 in lieu of CMP to provide a longer lifecycle material.
If you have any questions or comments, please contact me to discuss.
Sincerely,
Bolton & Menk, Inc.

Public Hearing
PRELIMINARY PLAT REVIEW
Conformity with 2020 – 2040 Orono Community Management Plan
The 2020 - 2040 Comprehensive Plan guides the properties for Rural Residential which allows 1 unit per 2 acres.
The site is 17.25 acres in area ending at the OHWL of Lake Classen. The plat includes an outlot for a new road and a
portion of land to be added to the neighboring property to the east. The proposal would create six buildable lots.
This would be calculated at 0.34 units per acre, well below the density guide from the comprehensive plan of 0.5
units per acre.
Conformity with Zoning District Standards
The properties are currently zoned RR-1B One Family Rural Residential (2.0 acre). All of the newly created parcels
conform to the current RR-1B zoning district as it relates to size and width. The existing structures will be removed
(except the outbuilding on Lot 2 which will remain). New buildings constructed must meet the required zoning
district standards as no variances have been requested. The properties are outside of the MUSA and will be served
by private septic systems.
Relationship to Surrounding Development
The proposed 6-lot single-family development with 2-plus acre lot sizes is relatively isolated and is bookended by
two 3 to 4+ acre residential properties on the east and the west. The 20+ acre Susan B. Lurton Off-Leash Dog Park
(City of Orono) abuts the property on the south and Baker Park (Three Rivers Park District) is across CSAH 6 to the
north. The development will be consistent with its residential neighbors.
Application Summary: This application involves five individual tax parcels, 2 containing existing homes, and
contemplates preliminary plat approval to create six, 2+ acre buildable lots and a private road. applicant requests
preliminary plat approval to create a 6-lot plat in the RR-1B district. The following is proposed:
1. Lot 1: 2.5 total acres; 2.3 dry, buildable acres.
2. Lot 2: 3.2 total acres; 3.26 dry, buildable acres.
3. Lot 3: A lakeshore lot with 2.75 total acres; 2.1 dry, buildable acres.
4. Lot 4: A lakeshore lot with 4.45 total acres; 2.02 dry, buildable acres.
5. Lot 5: 2.0 total acres; there is a small wetland shared with Lot 6.*
6. Lot 6: 2.0 total acres; there is a very, small wetland shared with Lot 5.*
All of the roads will be served by a new, private road with a cul-de-sac extending south from Hennepin County
Road 6 (CSAH 6). All lots will be served by private wells and septic systems.
*The wetland square footage is not called out for Lots 5 and 6. The dry buildable acreage should be confirmed.
Staff Recommendation: Planning Department Staff recommends approval. The Planning Commission should
review all of the issues identified within the report and provide direction to the Developer.

General Site Characteristics
The site to be platted as “Honey Hill on Lake Classen” currently contains two developed residential homes with
outbuildings, open meadow or pasture areas, wetlands, and some wooded areas along the south portions of the
property. The property also abuts Lake Classen which is classified by the DNR as a Natural Environment Lake and
requires a 150-foot structure and building setback from the OHWL. A wetland delineation has been completed and
the wetlands have been depicted on the preliminary plat drawing with the Minnehaha Creek Watershed District-
required buffers (“MCWD”). The City has received a copy of the delineation; the MCWD currently has the
delineation under review.
Road Layout and Standards
A 50-foot wide outlot containing a 24-foot wide paved, private road ending in a cul-de-sac is proposed to serve the
development. The road extends for 650 feet accessing south of CSAH 6. A split entrance is proposed to create a
landscaping island for the development identification sign, 55 feet from the paved county road. The paved width
has been increased to 30 feet in this area, and a 6’ x 48’ pavement opening is provided to accommodate the sign
and any landscaping.
Rural Oasis + Conservation Design + Wetlands
The Developer’s engineer, Anderson Engineering prepared a Conservation Design Master Plan (CDMP) for the
development following the Conservation Design requirements outlined within Chapter 78, Article XII (beginning
with Section. 78-1631). The Honey Hill CDMP reviewed the development against the City’s Rural Oasis Study, and
provided an overview of the property relating to Drainage, Land Use, Natural Resources Inventory, Public Waters
Inventory, and Wetlands.
The property is directly adjacent to CSAH 6, a corridor identified in Orono’s Rural Oasis Study (R.O.S) The Study
identifies the corridor along CSAH 6 from Brown Road to Highway 12, as an Open Enclosure Corridor. The R.O.S
defines Open Enclosure Corridors as having “Long views beyond the right of way, and no real sense of corridor
enclosure.” Positive views of the natural landscape extending from Open Enclosure Corridors are tied to the rural
feel of the area.
The CDMP determined that novel “non-rural” land uses such as new residential or industrial structures, can
threaten the rural character of the open corridors identified in the study. The study identified potential solutions to
these threats through ecological and conservation design measures such as berming, landscaping, and planting
techniques that preserve the rural character of the area.
According to the CDMP report, the plan for the site includes integrating the existing natural environment in a way
that will minimize negative impacts on the current rural character as described in the Rural Oasis Study.
Landscaping and planting along the northern boundary of the property will be utilized to preserve the positive and
natural viewsheds identified along CSAH 6. The development will not impact the natural viewshed of Lake Classen,
regardless of travel direction (east or west) along CSAH 6.
The Honey Hill CDMP concluded that the project would not have a significant impact on these resources, nor would
it negatively impact the rural character of the City of Orono. This CDMP determination was made considering the
following factors:
1. The inventoried natural resources and ecologic communities primarily occur on the periphery of the site
2. Site development plans are focused on areas of the site that have already been impacted by human
development, thus the risk of impacting the remaining resources and ecological communities is minimized.
3. The site development plans maintain the rural character of the City of Orono through the necessary site
design plans, as described in the Rural Oasis Study.
4. The site development plans follow the City of Orono’s Shoreland Overlay District building setback standards
and Minnehaha Creek Watershed District wetland buffer standards.

Lot Layout + Lot Standards – RR-1B, Rural Residential
The RR-1B district has a minimum lot area requirement of 2.0 dry, contiguous acres and 200 feet in width. For non-
lakeshore lots, the width is measured at the 50-foot front building setback along the roadway. For lakeshore lots,
the minimum 200-foot width must be met when measured in a straight line between the points at which the side
lot lines intersect the 974.5’ OHWL contour for Lake Classen, and at the required 150-foot structure setback from
the OHWL, measured in a straight line between the points of intersection of the side lot lines with the 150-foot
structure setback line.
Lot 1:
Proposed Lot 1 will have 2.5 total acres; 2.3 acres is upland. This lot will have almost 400 feet of frontage
on the new private road and ±320 feet of frontage on Cty Rd 6. There are two wetland areas on the
property. An approximately 1.0 acre building envelope is proposed. A stormwater basin is proposed on
the east side of the larger wetland on the property with a culvert maintaining the existing connection to
the wetland straddling Lots 5 and 6. A building pad is proposed to be created for a home with a first-floor
elevation of 994’, in addition to a potential building pad for an ADU (984’). A second driveway access for
the ADU is proposed.
Lot 2:
Lot 2 is shown with 3.2 total acres; and 3.26 dry, buildable acres. The property has a total width of 235
feet on the road; 94 feet are cul-de-sac. 268 feet of the continued front property line abuts Lot 3. The
eastern property line continues for 268 feet south of the cul-de-sac. The existing accessory building is
proposed to remain on the property. This lot shares a wetland with Lot 1 and has a small wetland shared
with Lurton Park on the south. This lot will have approximately 1.7 acres of building envelope; a building
pad for a home with a 1002’ first-floor elevation is shown to be graded by the developer. A stormwater
basin is shown on the northwest corner of the property near the wetland.
Lot 3:
Lot 3 is a proposed lakeshore lot with 2.75 total acres; and 2.1 dry, buildable acres. There is an
approximate 1.0 acre building envelope. The connection to the cul-de-sac is over a 40-foot-wide
driveway corridor. Lot 3 contains a large, wetland shared with Lot 4 which separates the majority of the
lot from the lake. The width of the lot is 240 feet measured at the OHWL and 230 feet measured
diagonally at the 150-foot setback. The developer is proposing a building pad for a home with a first-floor
elevation of 1000’; a small stormwater basin to the west of the 75-foot wetland buffer (from the large
wetland) is also proposed.
Lot 4:
A lakeshore lot with 4.45 total acres; 2.02 dry, buildable acres. This lot has 313 feet in width measured at
the OHWL, and 318 feet at the 150-foot setback. This lot has a total of 174 feet of frontage on the
development road, partially on the cul-de-sac. As with Lot 3, this lot contains a large, wetland that
separates the majority of the lot from the lake. Lot 4 contains the larger portion of this wetland. A
building pad is proposed for a first-floor elevation of 1002’. A common drainage swale is proposed on
the shared boundary with Lot 3.
Lot 5:
Lot 5 is 300+ feet wide on the road, and has 2.0 total acres; no wetlands. A building pad with a first-floor
elevation of 997’ is shown in addition to a potential building pad for an ADU (986.7’). A second driveway
access for the ADU is shown.
Lot 6:
Lot 6 has a nearly 1.0-acre building envelope, 258 feet along the new private road, and 296 feet on Sixth
Avenue. The rear of the lot abuts the driveway to the neighboring property to the east at 3405 Sixth
Avenue North. The developer’s plan reflects the creation of Outlot B, which is the eastern 20 feet of the
existing outlot containing the driveway to 3405 Sixth Avenue N. Outlot B is not included in the area for
Lot 6 which has 2.0 total acres. A building pad for a home with a first-floor elevation of 997’ is shown to
be created.

Landscaping + Tree Preservation
A landscape plan has been provided. City Code Section 82-225(b) stipulates deciduous trees (“boulevard trees”) are
to be planted within five feet of the right-of-way of the roads within and abutting the subdivision. One tree shall be
planted for every 40 feet of frontage along each road. The proposed landscape plan reflects 31 deciduous trees
(including golden weeping willow, honey locust, spring snow crab, and Swedish columnar aspen), and four Eastern
white pine in addition to various grasses, perennials, and shrubs – both evergreen and deciduous. The landscape
plan is attached as Exhibit K. There are approximately 1,920 linear feet of road frontage requiring 48 trees.
According to the schedule, 13 more trees should be provided to conform.
The Developer is proposing to create tree preservation areas (Exhibit L). Tree preservation is proposed at the
entrance corners and along the first 15-20 feet of the CSAH 6 frontage of Lots 1 and 6, and on the first 10 to 18 feet
of the private property abutting the private road on Lots 1, 2, 5, and 6. A 35-foot by 155-foot tree preservation
area is proposed on the east side of Lot 5 to protect trees planted by the owners of 3405 Sixth Avenue North by an
informal agreement with the previous property owners. The tree preservation language is included in the
Developer’s draft HOA Declaration (Exhibit O).
Stormwater Drainage Trunk Fee + Stormwater Drainage Improvements
Stormwater facilities will be required. The Developer has completed a stormwater and grading plan which is
currently under review by the City Engineer and the MCWD. Their plan reflects grading and stormwater basins to
address stormwater resulting from the new hardcover of the development. The plan has not been finalized but it is
not likely that amendments to the plan will require adjustments to the proposed property boundaries or
orientations. The final, approved stormwater and grading plan will be required as part of the final plat application
submittals.
Park/Trail Easement + Park Fees or Dedication
The Parks, Open Space, and Trail Plan chapter of the Orono Comprehensive Plan does not specify the need for a
neighborhood park at this location. Three River’s Baker Park is a regional park located to the north of the property.
The City of Orono has Lurton Dog Park to the south abutting the proposed development. As there is no defined
need for park land at this location, it would appear that the dedication of actual land for park purposes is not
required. Absent the need for park land dedication, a Park Dedication Fee instead of land would be appropriate
according to the City Ordinance.
Park Dedication: The proposed application is anticipated to pay a park dedication fee in lieu of providing land for
the newly created lots. The Park Dedication Fee is determined by the fair market value of the land being
subdivided. The Hennepin County Assessor will be consulted to determine the market value of the land to establish
the amount of the fee.
Issues for Discussion
1. Does the Planning Commission agree with the Developer’s findings in the Conservation Design Master
Plan? If not, what is lacking?
2. Does the Commission find the proposed plan preserves the existing rural “Open Enclosure” character along
the CSAH 6 corridor?
3. The City’s landscaping requirements call for 13 additional boulevard trees. The Commission should ask for
addition testimony from the application regarding the tree and landscaping plan. Are existing trees to
remain accounted for in the plan? Does the Developer’s plan provide the desired natural aesthetic?
Staff Recommendation
Staff recommends approval for the proposed 6-lot subdivision with the following conditions before consideration
by the City Council:
