PURSUANT TO MUNICIPAL ZONING CODE
SECTION 78-1116(5)
FILE NO. 15-3773
WHEREAS, Steve Elliot, a single person (hereinafter "the Owner'') is the owner
of the property located at 1400 Baldur Park Road within the City of Orono (hereinafter the "City")
and legally described as: Lot 15, Block 1, Baldur Park, Hennepin County, Minnesota
(hereinafter the "Property"); and
WHEREAS, the Owner has made application to the City of Orono for a conditional
use permit (hereinafter the "CUP") pursuant to Orono Municipal Zoning Code Section 78-1116 (5)
in order to conduct grading and filling activity below the 931.5' elevation in conjunction with
construction of a new residence elevated on fill to meet the regulatory flood protection elevation
(hereinafter the "RFPE") requirements of the zoning code; and
WHEREAS, the Owner has made application to the City of Orono for a variance
from Orono Municipal Zoning Code Section 78-1119 (a) to allow an elevation lower than 931.5
within 15 feet of the house in conjunction with construction of a replacement residence on fill
material; and
WHEREAS, after due published notice and mailed notice in accordance with
Minnesota Statutes and the Orono, Minnesota, City Code, public hearings were held by the Orono
Planning Commission on August 17, 2015 and the Orono City Council on September 28, 2015 at
which times all persons desiring to be heard concerning this application were given the
opportunity to speak thereon.
NOW, THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of Orono, Minnesota:
FINDINGS
1. This application was reviewed as Zoning File number 15-3773.
Page 1 of7
CITY OF ORONO
RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL
6546 NO. _________ _
2. The Property is located in the LR-1 C One Family Lakeshore Residential Zoning
District which requires a minimum lot area of 0.5 acres and a minimum lot width of
100'.
3. The Planning Commission reviewed this application at a public hearing held on
August 17, 2015 and voted 6 for and O against on a motion to approve the
conditional use permit. The Planning Commission finds that the following factors
support the granting of the request:
a. The Property has 0.28 acres in area (or 12,308 square feet).
b. The Property has approximately 50 feet of width at the OHWL and
approximately 50 feet at the 75-foot setback
c. Development of the Property for residential use is consistent with the
Community Management Plan.
d. The project will conform to all applicable zoning requirements.
e. The Property is adequately served by police, fire, roads, and stormwater
management.
f. The Property is provided with an adequate water supply and sewage disposal
system; in the opinion of staff this criterion is met.
g. The proposed use is not expected to generate excessive demand for public
services at public cost.
h. Development of the Property for residential use is compatible and consistent
with the neighborhood and surrounding uses.
i. The proposed use is compatible with the character of buildings and site
improvements in the surrounding area.
j. The request for grading and filling within the floodplain will be reviewed by
Minnehaha Creek Watershed District and a 1 :1 mitigation will be required to
offset any impacts from the filling activity.
k. The project is not anticipated to result in undesirable views or sustained activity
so as to disturb neighbors.

I. The project is not anticipated to result in a nuisance condition.
m. The applicant will be required to keep debris off of the public roadways. The
noise resulting from the trucks and equipment moving the material in and
around the site should be minimized to the extent possible. The grading project
will be evaluated and monitored by the City Engineer and planning staff so as
to minimize nuisances during the project.
n. The overall long term effect of the project is anticipated to result in minimal if
any environmental impacts.
o. This project is anticipated to result in no additional non-residential lighting or
glare.
p. The project is not anticipated to not be a detriment to the public health, public
safety, or general welfare.
4. The City Council reviewed this application at a public hearing held on September
28, 2015 including the variance request and finds that in addition to the above
conditional use permit findings the following factors support the granting of the
variance:
a. The variance is in harmony with the general intent and purpose of the
Ordinance. The applicant proposes to construct a new residence on a
residential property and will meet the shoreland and district setback
requirements.
b. The variance is consistent with the comprehensive plan. The Comp Plan has
directives which are put in place to protect the lake, limit massing and
hardcover. The proposed plan for a new residence results in neither an
increase in structural coverage ( over the permitted 15% level) nor hardcover
above 25%.
c. The Owner has established that there are practical difficulties.
d. The Owner proposes to use the Property in a reasonable manner not
permitted by the official controls; the Owner proposes to construct a new
home on the Property in conformance with the FEMA floodplain regulations
lowest floor and MCWD's lowest opening requirements. In order to do so the
Owner is elevating the new home on fill material; the Property is not wide
enough to facilitate the requirement that the fill material extend 15 feet from
the perimeter at the lowest floor elevation.
Page 3 of7
CITY OF ORONO
RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL
6 5 '-1 6 NO. _______ _
e. There are circumstances unique to the Property not created by the Owner.
Portions of the Property have a 1 % annual chance of flooding. The Owner is
proposing to elevate the structure in a conforming manner and location to
meet the flood regulations; the narrowness of the Property creates a difficulty
in meeting the 15-foot fill extension requirement.
f. The variance will not alter the essential character of the locality. The proposed
home does not appear to result in a negative impact on the character of the
neighborhood.
g. The home and attached garage must be elevated out of the area of 1 % annual
chance of flooding. Orono Code requires the elevated fill extend at least 15
feet from the structure's perimeter, due to the width of the Property the 15-
foot fill extension is not feasible. The resulting plan is not out of conformance
with the general neighborhood and will not result in a negative impact to the
adjacent properties.
h. The conditions do not apply generally to other land or structures in the district
in which the land is located. The Property is unique in that the proposed home
is located partially within the area of 1 % annual chance of flooding.
i. The granting of the application is necessary for the preservation and
enjoyment of a substantial property right of the Owner.
j. 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.
k. The granting of such variance will not merely serve as a convenience to the
applicant, but is necessary to alleviate demonstrable difficulty. There does not
appear to be enough width available on the property to result in a functional
width home which conforms to the 15-foot fill requirement. The site
constraints serve as a practical difficulty.
5. The Council has considered this application including the findings and
recommendation of the Planning Commission, reports by City staff, comments by
the Owners and the public, and the effect of the proposed variance and conditional
use permit on the health, safety and welfare of the community.
6. The City Council finds that the conditions existing on this Property are peculiar to
it and do not apply generally to other property in this zoning district; that granting
the variance and conditional use permit would not adversely affect traffic

conditions, light, air nor pose a fire hazard or other danger to neighboring property;
and would be in keeping with the spirit and intent of the Zoning Code and
Comprehensive Plan of the City.
CONCLUSIONS, ORDER AND CONDITIONS
Based upon one or more of the above findings, the Orono City Council grants: a CUP
pursuant to Orono Zoning Code Section 78-1116 (5) in order to conduct grading and filling activity
below the 931.5' elevation in order to meet the RFPE requirements of the zoning code; and a
variance from Orono Municipal Zoning Code Section 78-1119 (a) to allow an elevation lower than
931.5 within 15 feet of the house in conjunction with construction of a replacement residence on
fill material; subject to the following conditions:
1. Council approval is based on the survey and grading plan submitted by the Owner and
annotated by City staff, attached to this Resolution as Exhibits A & B. Any amendments
to the approved plans which are not in conformity with City codes will require further
Planning Commission and City Council review.
2. Proposed overall hardcover levels shall conform to the Tier 1 standards.
3. Compliance with all permitting requirements of the Minnehaha Creek Watershed District.
4. Compliance with ongoing recommendations of the City Engineer.
5. Authorities granted by this resolution run with the Property not with the Owner, but are
permissive only and must be exercised by obtaining permits and commencing construction
of said project; and completion of a framing inspection for the new residence within one
year of the date of Council approval, or the approvals granted by this Resolution will expire
on that date (September 28, 2016).
6. An as-built survey and an elevation certificate will be required upon completion of the new
home permit prior to refund of the permit escrow.
7. Violation of or non-compliance with any of the terms and conditions of this resolution shall
constitute a violation of the zoning code, shall automatically terminate any authority
granted herein, and shall be punishable as a misdemeanor.
8. The undersigned Owner has read, understands and hereby agrees to the terms of this
resolution and on behalf of the Owner and the Owner's heirs, successors and assigns,
hereby agrees to the recording of this resolution in the chain of title of the Property.
