the contamination, and about possible future development and if any changes would be allowed in the

From: Natalie Nye, Planner
Date: August 19, 2024
Subject: #LA24-000041, Ben Mayer, 2914 Casco Point Road, Variance - Public Hearing
Background
The applicant is requesting an average lakeshore setback variance in order to reconstruct and expand a
lakeside deck beyond the average lakeshore setback line. The proposal meets all other zoning
requirements including the 75-foot setback. The proposed deck is over an existing patio and therefore
there is no increase in hardcover.
Practical Difficulties Analysis
Applicant Submittal Information: The applicant has identified the property’s location on an inlet as a
practical difficulty. The location of the neighboring homes in relation to the existing home prohibits the
expansion of the home due to the average lakeshore setback. The proposed deck is the minimum size to
accommodate the needs of the family and does not impact neighboring views of the lake.
Planning Staff Practical Difficulty Analysis: Staff agrees with the applicant’s assessment. The average
lakeshore setback line bisects the home on the subject property. Any expansion of the lakeside deck
would require a variance. The proposed deck does not increase hardcover as it is over an existing patio. All
other zoning requirements are met. The neighboring properties have been notified and have provided
support of the variance.

Applicable Regulations:
Average Lakeshore Setback Variance (Section 78-1279)
The intent of the ordinance is to protect the lake views enjoyed by neighboring properties. Structures over
42 inches in height are prohibited in front of the average lakeshore setback line. The property is currently
nonconforming as the average lakeshore setback line bisects the home. Any new lakeside deck on the
home would require a variance. The proposed deck is entirely in front of the average lakeshore setback
line.
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. 14, 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 §462.357 Subd. 6(2) variances shall only be permitted when:
1. The variance is in harmony with the general intent and purpose of the Ordinance. An average
lakeshore setback variance is required for the construction of a new lakeside deck on the
property. The average lakeshore setback line currently bisects the home. The intent of the
ordinance is to preserve and protect lake views enjoyed from neighboring properties. The
neighboring properties are not impacted by new deck 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 not increase due to the proposed deck being located over an existing patio.
This criterion is met.
2. The variance is consistent with the comprehensive plan. The variance resulting in a new lakeside
deck is consistent with the comprehensive plan. A lakeside deck was previously located on the
property, which has since been removed. The proposal is for an expanded deck in the same
location. 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 deck is not likely to impact any lake views. This
criterion is met.

3. The applicant establishes that there are practical difficulties.
a. The property owner proposes to use the property in a reasonable manner not permitted
by the official controls; The existing home had a lakeside deck, which has now been
removed. The proposal is to reconstruct an expanded deck in the same location. The
deck will be above an existing at grade patio and therefore there is no increase in
hardcover. The proposed deck is over 100 feet away from the OHWL and is unlikely to
impact neighboring views of the lake. The proposal preserves the intent of the
ordinance by not disrupting any neighboring lake views. This criterion is met.
b. There are circumstances unique to the 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
c. The variance will not alter the essential character of the locality. The proposed variance
resulting in a new, 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.
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. 17, 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-1C 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 their lake view impacted
by the proposed deck. 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 the existing conditions of the site
and position of the home. 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 allows the property owner to fully enjoy the
deck and lakeyard. The deck is over 100 feet from the lake and hardcover is not impacted. This
criterion is met.
10
FILE #LA24-000041
August 19, 2024
Page 4 of 4
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 into the average lakeshore setback. The current
home is nonconforming to average lakeshore setback as the setback line bisects the home. Any
lakeside deck on the home would require a variance. The proposed deck will allow the current
property owners to fully use and enjoy the lakeyard. This criterion is met.
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
The applicant has provided neighborhood support letters from both impacted neighbors shown in Exhibit
H.
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 Planning Commission find that the variance, if granted, will not alter the essential
character of the neighborhood?
3. Does the Commission find it necessary to impose conditions in order to mitigate the impacts
created by the granting of the requested variance?
4. Are there any other issues or concerns with this application?
Planning Staff Recommendation
Staff recommends approval of the average lakeshore setback variance for a new deck.

PRACTICAL DIFFICULTIES DOCUMENTATION FORM
LA24-000041
1. The property owner proposes to use the property in a reasonable manner not permitted
by the Zoning Chapter.
Response: Yes. The existing deck was needing significant repairs and will be rebuilt with the same
intent to use for seating and grilling.
2. The plight of the landowner is due to circumstances unique to his property not created
by the landowner.
Response: The property is in a unique spot on the lake where the inlet is. This situates any repairs or
improvements to the house or deck in the Average Set Back Line, thus requiring the variance just as
the neighboring property being built also needed a variance to be built.
3. The variance, if granted, will not alter the essential character of the locality.
Response: No the variance (if granted) won't alter the essential character of the neighborhood. We
have also contacted both adjoining property owners and provided them with the details of the
proposed project. Both neighbors have enthusiastically supported the variance and have signed
documents in support of it.
4. Economic considerations alone do not constitute practical difficulties if reasonable use
for the property exists under the terms of the Zoning Chapter.
Response: Na
5. Practical difficulties 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 Minnesota Statutes, Section 116J.06, Subd. 2, when in harmony with this
Chapter.
Response: We have a family of seven and would like to rebuild the deck and expand it in order to be
able to fit a table that sits the entire family and a grill. The deck opens up in to our kitchen and we try
to prioritize family dinners. During the summer months we would love to do that with all our children
right off the house onto the deck. The existing deck was 8x12 and couldn't accommodate a table and
grill.
6. The Board of Appeals and Adjustments or the Council may not permit as a variance any
use that is not allowed under this Chapter for property in the zone where the affected
person's land is located.
Response: NA
7. The Board or Council may permit as a variance the temporary use of a one-family
dwelling as a two-family dwelling.
Response: na
8. The special conditions applying to the structure or land in question are peculiar to such

https://www3.citizenserve.com/Admin/PermitController?Action=DisplayPermitDetail&SelectedTab=Permits&Permit_ID=51051916&WorkOrder_ID=886…1/213
property or immediately adjoining property.
Response: Yes. The adjoining property also required a variance to be built.
9. The conditions do not apply generally to other land or structures in the district in which
said land is located.
Response: No, the adjoining properties also need a variance to be constructed.
10. The granting of the application is necessary for the preservation and enjoyment of a
substantial property right of the applicant.
Response: Yes. The existing deck was needing significant repairs and will be rebuilt with the same
intent to use for seating and grilling.
11. The granting of the proposed variance will not in any way impair health, safety,
comfort, morals, or in any other respect be contrary to the intent of the Zoning Code.
Response: Correct
12. The granting of such variance will not merely serve as a convenience to the applicant
but is necessary to alleviate demonstrable difficulty.
Response: Yes. The existing deck was rotting out and needed to be repaired immediately as it was a
safety issue. So the variance would need to be granted to do the necessary repairs as well as allow for
the expansion.

Subject: #LA24-000039, George Stickney o/b/o O’Shaughnessy, Stenehjem, and Paddock regarding the
following properties:
• 1480 Bracketts Point Road
• Outlot A, Bracketts Point 2nd Addition
• Outlot B, Bracketts Point 2nd Addition
Preliminary Plat/Replat and Easement Vacation
Public Hearing
Background
The purpose of this plat is primarily to reorient boundary lines of outlots in an obsolete configuration and remove
an outdated neighborhood amenity in the tennis court. No new lots are proposed and the existing misalignment of
the road outlot will be remedied.
On behalf of the property owners, the applicant is requesting preliminary plat approval to move the common
boundary line between 1480 Bracketts Point Road (“1480 BPR”) and Outlot A, Bracketts Point 2nd Addition (“Outlot
A”) in order to incorporate the tennis court portion of the outlot it the main building lot/property. The
stormwater ponding area will remain untouched. Also proposed is the rearrangement of the boundary between
Outlot A and Outlot B, Bracketts Point 2nd Addition
(“Outlot B”).
With the exception of the change to the portion of
Outlot A underlying the tennis court, the proposed
changes were intended to be completed in
conjunction with the finalization of the Southways
plat to the north. The changes are necessary to align
the public portion of Bracketts Point Road on the
north through Southways, with the private portion
on the south. A cul-de-sac delineates the change
from public to private.
This application is not a subdivision. Rather, it should
be viewed as a boundary line adjustment (subdivision exception) due to the need to formally re-plat a portion of
Outlot A currently classified as an “outlot”. According to City Code, an Outlot is defined as “a lot depicted on a
Application Summary: The applicant is requesting approval of a plat to rearrange boundary lines between
two outlots and 1480 Bracketts Point Road. Vacation of a portion of the existing drainage and utility
easements is also proposed.
Staff Recommendation: Planning Department Staff recommends approval.

final plat which intended for open space preservation, access, future development or other use”. Further, City
Code Section 82-254 states that outlots “are not intended for development except for the purpose in which they
are created, which may include streets, stormwater management, monument signs, etc.…”. Re-platting the
tennis court portion of Outlot A will allow it to function as part of the greater buildable lot of 1480 BPR.
A previous administrative boundary line adjustment (Subdivision Exception) was completed earlier this year
making the necessary changes to the outlots impacting the lot on the western side of the road (1450 Bracketts
Point Road, attached as Exhibit F. Hennepin County’s mapping and reflection of mid-year property line changes
are delayed significantly.
Applicable Regulations:
MN State Statue 462.358 Subd. 7. Vacation
“The governing body of a municipality may vacate any publicly owned utility easement or boulevard reserve or
any portion thereof, which are not being used for sewer, drainage, electric, telegraph, telephone, gas and
steam purposes or for boulevard reserve purposes, in the same manner as vacation proceedings are conducted
for streets, alleys and other public ways under a home rule charter or other provisions of law.
A boulevard reserve means an easement established adjacent to a dedicated street for the purpose of
establishing open space adjacent to the street and which area is designated on the recorded plat as "boulevard
reserve".”
Orono City Code. Sec. 78-9. - Vacation of streets, alleys and public grounds.
“Vacation of streets, alleys and public grounds shall follow the procedures set forth in this chapter; except
that such vacation shall require a petition by a majority of the landowners abutting the property to be
vacated, and a hearing preceded by two weeks' published and posted notice, all as required by Minn. Stat. §
412.851. The council may vacate any publicly owned utility easement or boulevard reserve which is not being
used for sewer, drainage, electric, telegraph, and telephone, gas and steam purposes or for boulevard
reserve purposes, in the same manner as vacation proceedings are conducted for streets, alleys and other
public ways. A boulevard reserve means an easement established adjacent to a dedicated street for the
purpose of establishing open space adjacent to the street and which area is designated on the recorded plat
as boulevard reserve.”
Drainage and Utility Easements Analysis
The City requires standard perimeter drainage and utility easements around all property boundaries on Plats. The
applicant’s request includes vacation of the existing perimeter drainage and utility easements between Outlot A
and 1480 BPR. Dedication of replacement easements is not necessary as the remainder of Outlot A will continue
to be encumbered by existing drainage and utility easements.
The applicant has drafted updated Private Road, Easement and Maintenance Declaration documents to address
the change in legal descriptions which the current property owners will sign.
Public Comments
The City received inquiries regarding the purpose and scope of the project. None of the inquiries resulted in formal
comments on the application.
Utility Notifications
Notification of the vacation was sent to the appropriate utility companies. It does not appear that any existing
utilities are located within the area to be vacated. Staff has spoken with Medicom who did not have an objection;
to date, no formal comments from utility companies have been received.

Issues for Consideration
1. Does the Planning Commission find that the proposed change is consistent with the original intent
contemplated with the 2007 approval of Bracketts Point 2nd Addition and Southways plats?
2. Does the Planning Commission find that the request, if approved, will not alter the essential
character of the neighborhood?
3. The Planning Commission should review the Conservation Design Report and provide recommendations.
4. Are there any other issues or concerns with this application?
Planning Staff Recommendation
Planning Staff recommends approval of the preliminary plat including the proposed easement vacation as applied.
