The Planning Commission is requested to review the Staff report, receive a presentation, and discuss and approve the request for variances to build a new home on the site. The plan includes a reduction in the hardcover in the 75-foot setback. Staff recommended approval due to the sub-standard lot size and consistency with the neighborhood, with some corrections to the exhibits. The Planning Commission discussed the item and asked questions of staff and the applicant’s representative, Tom Osfar, Osfar Construction, Dayton, MN. Chair Bollis opened the public hearing at 6:18 p.m. There were no public comments. Chair Bollis closed the public hearing at 618 p.m. Commissioners expressed concerns about the remaining amount of hardcover, especially for the driveway, due to the new attached garage being turned sideways. It was also noted that although the garage would increase in size, it would be pulled back from the lot lines. They asked for more illustrations of the height and impact on adjacent lots if the request goes forward. The lot has water on both sides, but the average lakeshore setback needs to be applied to the north side. Ressler moved, Brandabur seconded, to approve LA25-000038, 1384 Baldur Park Road, Variances as applied with the condition that the proposed hardcover is an improvement from the existing 3 Minutes Planning Commission Regular Meeting Monday, September 15, 2025, 6:00 PM City Council Chambers 2780 Kelley Parkway, Orono, MN 55356 Page 2 of 2 condition and that the proposed structural coverage does not exceed what is allowed.

The slope is not defined as bluff, however between the road and the flat, driveway area the slope ranges between 17% - 20% and is heavily treed. The applicant requests an average lakeshore setback variance to construct a new home in the same general location as the existing home while eliminating the lake setback encroachment and improving the average lakeshore setback encroachments. Practical Difficulties Analysis Applicant Submittal Information: The applicant has identified the steep topography, vegetation/wooded slope, and the location of the neighboring homes as practical difficulties supporting the requested variance. Additionally, they have provided supporting documentation regarding Practical Difficulties attached as Exhibit C, and should be asked for additional testimony regarding the application. Planning Staff Practical Difficulty Analysis: Regarding practical difficulty, Staff agrees with the applicant’s findings that the existing vegetated slope, the location of the existing improvements, and the deep lakeyard setbacks of the neighboring homes create difficulties for the subject property. Application Summary: The applicant is requesting an average lakeshore setback variance for a new home. Staff Recommendation: Planning Department Staff recommends approval. 6 PC Exhibit A FILE # LA25-000041 20 October 2025 Page 2 of 4 LOT ANALYSIS WORKSHEET Section 6.12.1450 & 6.12.6240 – Setbacks: LR-1B Required Existing Proposed Rear / Street 30’ ±187’ ±157’ North Side 10’ 15’ 38.7’ South Side 10’ 26.9’ 16.4’ Lakeshore 75’ 66.6’ 79.4’ Average Lakeshore The existing home encroaches between 68’ (north) and 85.5’ (south) into the ALS.

(25 %) 9,619 s.f. (21.8%) 9,299 s.f. (21.1%) Applicable Regulations: Average Lakeshore Setback Variance (Section 6.12.6240) The existing home is located within the 75-foot lake setback. The applicant proposes to resolve the lake setback encroachment with the new home. The lake side of the existing home also encroaches approximately 68 feet into the average lakeshore setback on the north side and 85.5 feet on the south end. The new home will be located 114 feet from the lake (19 feet ahead of the average lakeshore setback) on the north, and 79 feet from the lake (80 feet ahead of the average lakeshore setback) on the south. The proposed home location will improve the average lakeshore setback encroachments by approximately 49 feet on the north and 5.5 feet on the south. This is a significant improvement for the neighbor on the north side at 830 Windjammer Lane. Construction in the conforming building envelope, on the slope, would likely result in a large amount of grading/disturbance to create a building pad on the property, as well as the removal of a significant number of trees, which could result in erosion or instability of the slope, and reduce the natural, vegetative screening for the neighbors on either side of the subject property. Refer to the applicant’s tree removal exhibit (Exhibit N). 7 FILE # LA25-000041 20 October 2025 Page 3 of 4 Governing Regulation: Variance (Section 6.12.530) 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. The proposed variance is in harmony with the purpose of the Ordinance. The property includes difficulties in the topography, existing vegetation, the existing conditions, and the deep lake setbacks of the neighboring homes in relation to the subject. The average lakeshore setback variance requested will improve lake views from the northern neighbor and will not further impact views of the lake for adjacent properties. 2. The variance is consistent with the comprehensive plan. The proposed variance to construct a new home in a similar but improved location as the existing home, also resulting in an improved lake setback, is consistent with the comprehensive plan. 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 request to permit the construction of the new home within the average lakeshore setback appears to be reasonable, considering the topography of the lot, the location of the existing home, the setback of the neighboring homes, and the existing mature woods/vegetative screening. The request is reasonable. b. There are circumstances unique to the property not created by the landowner; The location of the existing home is nonconforming, the proposed home location will not adversely impact views of the lake for the neighbors, and will maintain consistency with the neighborhood. The proposed home improves the lake setback and the views of the lake for the most impacted neighbor (to the north). The proposal will allow maintenance of the existing vegetation on the slope. The circumstances are unique to the property; and c. The variance will not alter the essential character of the locality. The variance is requested to permit the construction of the home to minimize impacts on the lake. The location will not impact the neighbors’ views of the lake and will fit the character of the neighborhood according to the submitted information. Additionally, City Code Section 6.12.530 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 6.12. This condition is not applicable. 8 FILE # LA25-000041 20 October 2025 Page 4 of 4 6. The board or the council may not permit as a variance any use that is not permitted under Orono City Code Chapter 6.12 for property in the zone where the affected person's land is located. This condition is not applicable, as a residential home is an allowed 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 steep, wooded slope on the street side of the existing home, combined with the home’s proximity and orientation to the lakeshore and the deep setbacks of the adjacent homes, creates difficulties in improving the property consistent with the homes in their neighborhood. 9. The conditions do not apply generally to other land or structures in the district in which the land is located. The unique topography, the steep, wooded slope, the location of the existing improvements, and the extreme setbacks of the adjacent homes to the lake create difficulties for the owners. 10. The granting of the application is necessary for the preservation and enjoyment of a substantial property right of the applicant. The owners assert that granting the variance is necessary for the preservation of their property rights. 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. 12. The granting of such variance will not merely serve as a convenience to the applicant but is necessary to alleviate demonstrable difficulty. The applicant asserts that the requested variance is necessary and does not merely serve as a convenience to the owners. The Commission may recommend, or the Council may impose conditions in granting 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 Supportive comments from neighbors have been received, one commentor was not in support. The neighbor comments are attached as Exhibit J. Issues for Consideration 1. Does the Planning Commission find that the property owner proposes to use the property in a reasonable manner that 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 to mitigate the impacts created by the granting of the requested variance? 4. Are there any other issues or concerns with this application?

While the existing non-conforming home could be remodeled, the proposed new construction offers substantial improvements to conformity, environmental protection, and neighborhood harmony. The proposed home will conform to all zoning requirements except for the average lakeshore setback, which is uniquely constrained by the neighboring homes' positions and the property's severe topography. Compliance with the average lakeshore setback would require building on the steep, wooded street side of the property, necessitating the removal of 70% of mature trees (71 of 102 trees) and extensive retaining wall construction that would fundamentally alter the property's character. PROJECT OVERVIEW The proposed new home at 850 Windjammer represents a thoughtful approach to improving an existing non-conforming structure while respecting both the natural environment and neighborhood context. The new construction will: • Increase the lakeshore setback from the current non-conforming 71'7" to a conforming 77'10" • Preserve 89% of existing trees (1,236" of 1,384" total caliper inches), compared to only 30% preservation if built in the technically conforming location • Increase neighbor separation from 49' to 76' from the closest neighboring structure • Exceed side yard setbackrequirements with 38'8" to the north and 16'10" to the south UNIQUE PHYSICAL CONSTRAINTS The subject property presents exceptional topographical challenges. While the slope does not technically qualify as a bluff under city ordinance, the severe grade from street to lake creates practical difficulties that distinguish this property from others in the district. The steep slope extends from the street through the buildable area, making street-side construction impractical without substantial environmental impact. Building in the location required by strict average lakeshore setback compliance would necessitate: • Removal of 964" (71 of the 102 trees) of mature trees (70% of total tree coverage) 11 • Construction of multiple tiers of tall retaining walls on a steep slope • Extensive grading and site disturbance • Fundamental alteration of the wooded character that defines both this property and the broader neighborhood NEIGHBORHOOD CONTEXT AND SUPPORT The proposed location maintains consistency with the established development pattern along this section of lakeshore. Properties to the north share similar topographical constraints and have historically been aligned in their setbacks from the lake, creating a harmonious streetscape that respects natural contours while preserving lake views for all residents. The property to the south, due to its unique topography and original design decisions, sits significantly further from the lake than would have been required at the time of its construction. This creates an anomalous average lakeshore setback line that does not reflect the predominant neighborhood pattern. Importantly, the proposal has garnered support from neighboring property owners, particularly those to the south who will benefit from maintaining the increased separation distance and improved sight lines. ENVIRONMENTAL STEWARDSHIP The variance request represents the environmentally superior alternative. By allowing construction in the proposed location rather than forcing compliance with a technically conforming but environmentally destructive position, the variance will: • Preserve 1,236" of mature trees versus only 420" under strict compliance • Minimize grading and soil disturbance on steep slopes • Maintain the natural woodland character that provides important stormwater management and habitat benefits 12 RESPONSE TO PRACTICAL DIFFICULTY CRITERIA 1. The variance is in harmony with the general intent and purpose of the Ordinance. The proposed variance is in complete harmony with the ordinance's intent to protect water quality, preserve natural resources, and maintain neighborhood character. By increasing the lakeshore setback from 71'7" to 77'10", reducing impervious surface by 600 square feet, and preserving 89% of existing trees, this proposal achieves superior outcomes compared to strict compliance. The ordinance seeks to balance development rights with environmental protection— this variance accomplishes both goals more effectively than rigid adherence to the average lakeshore setback requirement. 2. The variance is consistent with the comprehensive plan. The City's comprehensive plan emphasizes environmental stewardship, water quality protection, and preservation of Orono's natural character. This variance directly supports these goals by: • Protecting 1,236" of mature trees that provide stormwater filtration and habitat • Moving the structure further from the lake than existing conditions • Reducing impervious surface to conforming levels • Avoiding the environmental degradation that would result from clear-cutting and extensive grading required for strict compliance 3a. The property owner proposes to use the property in a reasonable manner not permitted by the Zoning Chapter. The proposed use—construction of a single-family residence—is entirely reasonable and represents the fundamental use intended for R-1 zoned property. The home's size and design are consistent with neighborhood standards. The only aspect not permitted is the average lakeshore setback, which is constrained by the unique positioning of neighboring homes and severe topography. Building in the proposed location represents the most reasonable development approach given the site's physical constraints. 3b. The plight of the landowner is due to circumstances unique to his property not created by the landowner. The practical difficulties are entirely due to pre-existing conditions: • Severe topography: The steep slope from street to lake existed naturally and was not created or exacerbated by the owner • Neighboring home positions: The southern neighbor's home sits unusually far from the lake, creating an anomalous average setback line • Existing non-conformities: The current home's non-conforming status predates current ownership 13 These unique circumstances combine to create a situation where strict compliance would require environmentally destructive site alterations. 3c. The variance, if granted, will not alter the essential character of the locality. Granting the variance will preserve, not alter, the locality's essential character by: • Maintaining the wooded, natural aesthetic through preservation of 89% of trees • Aligning with the established development pattern of properties to the north • Avoiding the construction of multiple tall retaining walls that would dramatically change the property's appearance • Increasing separation from the nearest neighbor from 49' to 76' • Proposing a home design consistent with existing neighborhood architecture 4. Economic considerations alone do not constitute practical difficulties if reasonable use for the property exists under the terms of the Zoning Chapter. This variance request is based on environmental and topographical constraints, not economic considerations. While compliance would require expensive retaining walls and site work, the fundamental issue is that reasonable use cannot be achieved without: • Destroying 70% of the property's mature forest • Creating significant environmental impacts • Fundamentally altering the property's natural character These physical impossibilities, not cost concerns, drive this variance request. 5. Practical difficulties include, but are not limited to, inadequate access to direct sunlight for solar energy systems. While this provision primarily addresses solar access, it recognizes that practical difficulties encompass various site-specific physical constraints. The severe topography of this property creates practical difficulties in site development that are equally compelling, requiring careful building placement to minimize environmental impact and preserve the natural landscape that defines this neighborhood. 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. The proposed single-family residential use is explicitly permitted in the R-1 zoning district. This variance request seeks only relief from the average lakeshore setback requirement, not permission for any non-permitted use. 7. The Board or Council may permit as a variance the temporary use of a one- family dwelling as a two-family dwelling. 14 This provision is not applicable to the current request. The proposal is for a single-family dwelling consistent with the property's zoning designation. 8. The special conditions applying to the structure or land in question are peculiar to such property or immediately adjoining property. The special conditions are indeed peculiar to this specific property: • The steep topography extending from street to lake is more severe than typical lots in the area • The southern neighbor's home position, set unusually far from the lake, creates a unique average setback calculation • The combination of these factors creates buildable area constraints not found on other properties • The need to preserve the mature forest on the steep slope is specific to this property's environmental features 9. The conditions do not apply generally to other land or structures in the district in which said land is located. These conditions are unique within the district: • Most lakeshore properties have either more gradual slopes or wider lots allowing flexible building placement • Other properties with slopes typically have different orientations allowing development without massive tree removal • The specific relationship between this property's topography and neighboring home positions is not replicated elsewhere in the district 10. The granting of the application is necessary for the preservation and enjoyment of a substantial property right of the applicant. Without this variance, the owner would be denied the fundamental property right to reasonably improve their property—a right freely enjoyed by all neighboring property owners. The variance enables: • Replacement of an aging, non-conforming structure • Achievement of conforming impervious surface coverage • Creation of a safe, modern home meeting current building codes • Reasonable use of the property without environmental destruction 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. 15 The variance enhances rather than impairs community welfare: • Health: Preserved trees improve air quality and stormwater management • Safety: Increased setbacks from neighbors reduce fire spread risk • Comfort: Greater separation distances enhance privacy for all parties • Environmental: Reduced impervious surface and tree preservation protect water quality • Zoning Intent: Achieves superior outcomes compared to strict compliance 12. The granting of such variance will not merely serve as a convenience to the applicant, but is necessary to alleviate demonstrable difficulty. This variance addresses demonstrable physical difficulties, not mere inconvenience: • Without variance: Must remove 964" of trees (70% of total) • Without variance: Must construct multiple tiers of tall retaining walls • Without variance: Must dramatically alter the natural topography • Without variance: Must accept environmental degradation inconsistent with city goals The variance is necessary to enable any reasonable development that preserves the property's natural character and environmental benefits. CONCLUSION This variance request represents a thoughtful balance between regulatory compliance and practical necessity. By granting this limited variance from the average lakeshore setback, the City enables the cure of multiple existing nonconformities, superior environmental outcomes, and development that enhances rather than detracts from neighborhood character. The unique physical constraints of this property create a genuine practical difficulty that merits variance approval to achieve outcomes consistent with the comprehensive plan and zoning ordinance intent. 16 PRACTICAL DIFFICULTIES DOCUMENTATION FORM LA25-000041 1. The property owner proposes to use the property in a reasonable manner not permitted by the Zoning Chapter. Response: The proposed use—construction of a single-family residence—is entirely reasonable and represents the fundamental use intended for R-1 zoned property. The home's size and design are consistent with neighborhood standards. The only aspect not permitted is the average lakeshore setback, which is constrained by the unique positioning of neighboring homes and severe topography. Building in the proposed location represents the most reasonable development approach given the site's physical constraints. 2. The plight of the landowner is due to circumstances unique to his property not created by the landowner. Response: The practical difficulties are entirely due to pre-existing conditions: Severe topography: The steep slope from street to lake existed naturally and was not created or exacerbated by the owner Neighboring home positions: The southern neighbor's home sits unusually far from the lake, creating an anomalous average setback line Existing non-conformities: The current home's non-conforming status predates current ownership These unique circumstances combine to create a situation where strict compliance would require environmentally destructive site alterations. 3. The variance, if granted, will not alter the essential character of the locality. Response: Granting the variance will preserve, not alter, the locality's essential character by: Maintaining the wooded, natural aesthetic through preservation of 89% of trees Aligning with the established development pattern of properties to the north Avoiding the construction of multiple tall retaining walls that would dramatically change the property's appearance Increasing separation from the nearest neighbor from 49' to 76' Proposing a home design consistent with existing neighborhood architecture 4. Economic considerations alone do not constitute practical difficulties if reasonable use for the property exists under the terms of the Zoning Chapter.

Response: The variance enhances rather than impairs community welfare: Health: Preserved trees improve air quality and stormwater management Safety: Increased setbacks from neighbors reduce fire spread risk Comfort: Greater separation distances enhance privacy for all parties Environmental: Reduced impervious surface and tree preservation protect water quality Zoning Intent: Achieves superior outcomes compared to strict compliance 12. The granting of such variance will not merely serve as a convenience to the applicant but is necessary to alleviate demonstrable difficulty. Response: This variance addresses demonstrable physical difficulties, not mere inconvenience: Without variance: Must remove 964" of trees (70% of total) Without variance: Must construct multiple tiers of tall retaining walls Without variance: Must dramatically alter the natural topography Without variance: Must accept environmental degradation inconsistent with city goals The variance is necessary to enable any reasonable development that preserves the property's natural character and environmental benefits. 19 A1 EXISTING SURVEY A2 PROP.

We have spoken with Sven Gustafson (Stonewood) and his clients regarding their plans for a new home and the requested variance. We understand that the new home plans call for a structure that is placed closer to our home (further back from the lake) but still in front of the average lakeshore setback, and that the new structure would likely have a taller profile than the existing structure. We fully support the requested plans (and associated variances). We believe the new plans represent a significant improvement to the existing structure, and also represent a more favorable alternative to a home built in full compliance with setback rules - that would likely require removal of most of the mature trees on the lot. Please let us know if you or your associates have any questions or comments regarding the plans or associated variances. We welcome a discussion.

In response, I kindly request that you and the City Council do not grant this request because no "Practical Difficulty" or other explanation should overcome the slippery slope of approving a variance to the average lakeshore setback because any approved variance of this type will jeopardize the long-term enjoyment of this wonderful lakeshore community.

The existing detached garage is proposed to remain. • A hardcover variance to permit 32.5% (6,425 s.f.) hardcover where 32.5% (6,427 s.f.) exists and 25% is permitted; a 2 square foot reduction; and • Lot area and Lot width variances to re-develop the existing substandard-sized lot. Existing Conditions: Proposed Conditions: Application Summary: The applicant is requesting lot area, lot width, and hardcover variances to support the construction of a new home on the property. Staff Recommendation: Planning Department Staff recommends partial approval, conditioned upon hardcover reductions. See page 5. 106 PC Exhibit A FILE # LA25-000042 20 October 2025 Page 2 of 5 Practical Difficulties Analysis Applicant Submittal Information: The applicant has identified the lot shape and long driveway, the existing improvements, and the topography as practical difficulties supporting the requested variances. Additionally, they have provided supporting documentation regarding Practical Difficulties attached as Exhibits C & D, and should be asked for additional testimony regarding the application. Planning Staff Practical Difficulty Analysis: Regarding practical difficulty, Staff finds that the nonconforming size and width of the property and the existing improvements may create difficulties for development. The lot is long and narrow, which restricts the building envelope. The applicant designed a slightly larger home, with an attached garage, in a similar footprint to the existing home. However, they should consider revising the proposal to be closer to conformance with the city code (hardcover regulations). They should consider adjusting the proposed improvements to meet the side yard setbacks. Considering the hardcover percentage proposed, the applicant should explore options to further reduce the hardcover on the property. Additionally, the applicant could explore implementing stormwater improvements on the site to offset the proposed hardcover. LOT ANALYSIS WORKSHEET Sections 6.12.1550 & 6.12.6240 – Setbacks: The existing sidewalk and deck extend up to and/or over the north side property line. The proposed sidewalk and patio/terrace are proposed 4.5 feet from the north side lot line. The applicant should demonstrate that the new patio will be an in-kind replacement of a portion of the existing condition. “In-kind,” as defined in City Code Section 6.12.010, means: In-kind, when used in the context of replacement of a nonconforming building or structure, means the replacement of a building or structure completely within the limits (location, height, width, and depth) of the previous building or structure. To be considered an in-kind replacement, the new terrace/patio should fit within the footprint of the existing home, deck, and sidewalk.

(25 %) 6,427 s.f. (32.5%) 6,425 s.f. (32.5%) Applicable Regulations: Lot area and Lot Width Variances (Sections 6.12.320 and 6.12.1550) Zoning Code Section 6.12.320 provides options for the redevelopment of lots that do not meet the minimum area or width requirements for the respective zoning district. Substandard properties within the Shoreland Overlay District may be redeveloped without variances from lot size and width requirements if the following standards are met: 1. All setback requirements can be met. 2. The lot is connected to a public sewer, and 3. The impervious surface coverage meets all hardcover location and square footage restrictions of this chapter, and the total square footage of hardcover does not exceed 25 percent of the entire lot area. 4. All other zoning district standards can be met. The applicant’s request for additional variances results in the property’s inability to conform to all of the standards above. Therefore, lot area and lot width variances are also required to redevelop the property. The ability to develop the property in a manner consistent with other developed properties in the neighborhood would be limited if the lot width and lot area variances are not granted. Hardcover Variance (Chapter 6.12 Section 9210) With redevelopment, applicants are guided to design their plan to be as conforming as possible to the current code requirements. The existing hardcover level of 32.5% exceeds the allowed 25% by 1,477 square feet. The applicants are proposing a minimal reduction of the total site’s hardcover level of two (2) square feet (bringing the amount from 6,427 square feet to 6,425 square feet). Staff encourages a greater reduction in hardcover. Further, the property is located on Shadywood Road (CSAH 19), which requires a minimal driveway turnaround area, which, according to Section 6.12.9120(5), is 8’ x 12’. The applicants’ plan reflects an approximate 10.5’ x 17.5’ turnaround that appears to also serve as the sidewalk to the front door. Staff suggests reducing the concrete walk to the minimum turnaround size to reduce the hardcover by an additional 87 square feet, and reducing the size of the proposed sidewalks and terrace. Removal of the portions of the lakeside terrace to meet the 10-foot side yard setback (±125 square feet) and reduction of the driveway turnaround would result in a reduction of approximately 212.75 square feet or a 1.2% reduction. Governing Regulation: Variance (Section 6.12.530) 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 108 FILE # LA25-000042 20 October 2025 Page 4 of 5 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. The proposed variances are in harmony with the purpose of the Ordinance. The substandard lot has difficulties in its depth and narrow width, existing improvements, and the lack of on-street parking opportunities on Shadywood Road, making development difficult. 2. The variance is consistent with the comprehensive plan. The variances proposed to rebuild a new home on this nonconforming lot are consistent with the comprehensive plan. 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 request to permit the construction of a new residence on the substandard lot is reasonable. The proposed hardcover level is an existing condition. b. There are circumstances unique to the property not created by the landowner; The substandard lot size is an existing condition, and there is no available land with which to make the property more conforming. The location and size of the existing garage and driveway, restricted roadway, lot size, width, and depth are challenges not created by the owners. The footprint of the home and the hardcover improvements are design choices by the owners. As designed, the project includes maintenance of the current hardcover level. The applicant should redesign to reduce the overall hardcover to bring the property closer to conformance; and c. The variance will not alter the essential character of the locality. The variances are requested to permit the construction of a new home on the substandard residential property, which is reasonable. Additionally, City Code Section 6.12.530 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 6.12. 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 6.12 for property in the zone where the affected person's land is located. This condition is not applicable, as a residence is an allowed 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 property’s substandard size (width and depth), location, and existing conditions create difficulties that also apply to many of the properties in the same neighborhood. The proposed hardcover level may be out of character. 9. The conditions do not apply generally to other land or structures in the district in which the land is located. Other properties in the Shadywood neighborhood are subject to similar difficulties. 10. The granting of the application is necessary for the preservation and enjoyment of a substantial property right of the applicant. The proposed structural level (new home plus the existing detached garage) is 566 square feet under the 20% maximum. Granting the lot area and width variances is necessary for the preservation of the property rights of the owners. The applicants should find hardcover reductions to increase the green space on the property. 11. The granting of the proposed variance will not in any way impair health, safety, comfort, or morals, or in any other respect be contrary to the intent of this chapter. Granting the requested variances would not be contrary to the intent of the zoning chapter. 12. The granting of such variance will not merely serve as a convenience to the applicant but is necessary to alleviate demonstrable difficulty. The variances for lot size are necessary and do not merely serve as a 109 FILE # LA25-000042 20 October 2025 Page 5 of 5 convenience to the owners. The proposed hardcover appears to be a convenience; the applicants should make further hardcover reductions. The Commission may recommend, or the Council may impose conditions in granting 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 To date, no public comments have been received. Issues for Consideration 1. Does the Planning Commission find that the property owner proposes to use the property in a reasonable manner that is not permitted by an official control? 2. Does the Planning Commission find that the variance(s), if granted, will not alter the essential character of the neighborhood? 3. Does the Commission find it necessary to impose conditions to mitigate the impacts created by the granting of the requested variance(s)? 4. Are there any other issues or concerns with this application? Planning Staff Recommendation Planning Staff recommends approval of the lot area and lot width variances. Staff recommends that the applicants revise the plan to provide more significant hardcover reductions from the existing level. As applied, staff recommends denial of the overall application. 110 Land Use Application Summary Application Date:09/17/2025 Address:1840 Shadywood RD Orono, MN 55391 Parcel Number:1711723240016 Land Use Number:LA25-000042 Application Submitted By:Property Owner Owner:Name: SCOTT ERICKSON Address: 1840 SHADYWOOD RD WAYZATA MN 55391 Applicant:Name: Ingrid Erickson Company: Address: 1840 Shadywood Road Orono, MN 55391 igerickson@gmail.com Contact Information:Associated Contact: Associated Contact: Associated Contact: Associated Contact: Project Description:Single family residence Land Use Application Type:Amendmend Application Appeal of Admin Decision Concept Application Conditional Use Permit Site Plan Application Subdivision Application Subdivision Exception Vacation Application Variance Application Applicant Signature: 111 PC Exhibit B Scott and Ingrid Erickson 1840 Shadywood Road Orono, MN 55391 Honorable Mayor and Members of the Plan Commission Re: Variance Request for 1840 Shadywood Rd – Hardcover Variance Dear Mayor and Members of the Commission, We are writing to respectfully request a variance for the replacement of our home at 1840 Shadywood Rd, a property we have owned and cared for more than 20 years. Our family has established deep roots in this neighborhood, and we are committed to maintaining its character while updating our home to meet the needs of our family. We have worked carefully to design a home that is modest in size and scale, appropriate for the lot, and respectful of the surrounding homes. Our property has three unusual characteristics that create a practical difficulty in meeting current hardcover requirements: 1. Lot Shape and Driveway Requirement Our lot is unusually long and narrow, requiring a very long driveway that accounts for nearly as much square footage as the house and garage. Along this section of the street, our property is the longest and narrowest, while most adjacent lots are wider and shorter, providing them greater flexibility for structure placement and coverage. 2. Existing Nonconformities and Setback Improvements The existing home, deck, and paving sit directly against the northern property line, with paving extending into the setback to access the lake. Our proposed design brings the new home fully into compliance with all setbacks. The paving along the side for grill access encroaches four feet less than the existing condition, and we are removing the remaining deck and paving within the setback. This configuration has existed since 1952, long before current zoning standards, yet we are voluntarily improving conformity where possible. 3. Topography and Elevation Challenges The property not only narrows but also rises nearly 11 feet from the street to where the adjacent homes are located. To preserve lake views and align with the elevation of neighboring homes, the proposed house must remain in a similar position. Moving it further from the lake would lower its elevation, causing neighboring homes to obstruct views and disrupting the natural grade of the lot. Our proposed design does not increase the existing hardcover, which has remained unchanged since we purchased the home more than 20 years ago. At the time of purchase, we were unaware that the paving and hardcover slightly exceeded the current ordinance. The new home will modernize the 112 PC Exhibit C property, improve setback compliance, and maintain the same level of coverage that has existed for over 70 years. The proposed home is a one-story rambler with a main-level footprint similar to the existing house, along with an attached garage. It preserves the natural character of the lot, avoids overbuilding, and fits harmoniously within the neighborhood. Practical Difficulty Summary - The property’s long, narrow shape and steep grade make it impractical to meet hardcover limits without eliminating essential driveway and access areas. - The existing hardcover condition originated in 1952, long before current code, and was not created by us. - The new design improves setbacks and reduces nonconformities, showing a good-faith effort toward compliance. - The variance will not alter the essential character of the neighborhood or negatively affect public health or safety. - The request is not based on economic gain, but on maintaining reasonable, continued use of our long-established family property. We believe this proposal meets the intent of the zoning code and represents a responsible, balanced approach to the lot’s unique characteristics. We respectfully ask for your support in granting this variance so we may rebuild a modest, conforming family home that enhances both our property and the neighborhood. Thank you for your time and thoughtful consideration. Respectfully submitted, Scott and Ingrid Erickson 1840 Shadywood Road Orono, MN 55391 113 PRACTICAL DIFFICULTIES DOCUMENTATION FORM LA25-000042 1.

This application includes a reconfiguration of the existing driveway to the garage, a new sidewalk, a redesign of the roof, a reconfiguration of the deck, a new retaining wall, and new building additions of the main and upper levels including the kitchen/dining room and primary bedroom/bathroom. Additionally, the applicant is adding elements to the site that are conforming the city code including, new balconies within the roofline, new chimney, a new pool and driveway expansion on the site. The property is located on a peninsula between Stubbs and Maxwell Bays, and has the 75-foot lakeshore setback cover a majority of the northern and southern sides of the property. The existing house is located partially within the legal building envelope of the site, and the applicant’s proposal includes the utilization of the remainder of this envelope to include a new patio and pool, and a driveway turnaround. The proposed is accessed across a private property to get to Partenwood Road. The applicant should provide additional testimony regarding easements or permissions to allow for the driveway to remain and expand outside of the property boundaries. Additionally, the applicant requests a conditional use permit (CUP) to rebuild and expand the existing retaining wall on the northeast side of the house, behind the garage, to stabilize the existing grade and reduce runoff directed towards the building. Practical Difficulties Analysis Applicant Submittal Information: The applicant has provided a detailed cover letter (Exhibit D) with responses to the practical difficulty criteria. The house is of architectural significance and the preservation and enhancement of the existing features and conditions is desired by the homeowner. The lakeshore restricts even the most modest of modifications to this house, and the changes proposed are minimal in nature to improve the aesthetic and functionality of the house. Planning Staff Practical Difficulty Analysis: The location of the property on a peninsula, where the 75’ lakeshore setback is applied on three-sides creates a limited building envelope where conformance with the city’s shoreland regulations is extreme. Staff acknowledges the home is in a central location on the property, partially within this Application Summary: The applicant is proposing to remodel the existing home and requests variances for building within the 75-foot lake setback and hardcover within the 75-foot lake setback, as well as a conditional use permit for new retaining walls in the 75-foot lakeshore setback. Staff Recommendation: Planning Staff recommends approval as applied. 133 LA25-000043 20 October 2025 Page 2 of 8 envelope, which required many of the exterior modifications or expansions would be within the lakeshore setback. The applicant’s requests are minimal for the site, as they are proposing to rebuild and improve the existing conditions, opposed to demolition and new construction. The project includes a 1,152 square foot decrease in hardcover in the 75-foot lakeshore, and a general shifting of the driveway location away from the OHWL. The proposed massing additions to the home are minimal in nature including small additions on the non-lake side of the home and a new roof configuration. The property is well below the structural and hardcover limits for the site. the project overall decreases the hardcover within the lakeshore setback which is a positive improvement for the property, in light of the difficulties facing the homeowner. Conditional Use Permit Analysis: A CUP is required in instances where new walls are proposed or replacement walls are proposed that are greater than four (4) feet in height within the lakeshore setback. There is an existing timber retaining wall in deteriorating condition within the lakeshore that the applicant requests to replace with a limestone retaining wall 2.4 feet further in length. The existing wall contained the slope around a staircase to the second story of the house, which is proposed to be removed in favor of a second story balcony. There is an embankment that separates the home from the channel which slopes back down towards the building. Reconstructing the retaining is necessary to provide slope stability and will protect the current embankment of the site due to the current wall failing. The walls will be screened from the lakeview as they are interior of the embankment and the landscape plan indicates new planting in the area which provides screening.

All existing and proposed improvements do not impact the average lakeshore setback. 134 LA25-000043 20 October 2025 Page 3 of 8 Applicable Regulations: Building within the 75-foot lakeshore (Section 6.12.6240) No buildings are permitted within 75-foot lakeshore setback. The 75-foot lakeshore setback impacts the property on three sides and significantly impacts the existing house. The building expansions include a new roof design, two small additions (16 sq ft and 35 sq ft) on the west side of the home. The expansions of the existing footprint fall within the lakeshore and require relief through the variance process, outside of in-kind work. Hardcover within the 75-foot lakeshore (Section 6.12.9110) No hardcover is permitted within the 75-foot lakeshore setback. Similar to the conditions regarding the house, the existing hardcover on the site is located within the lakeshore setback. The driveway cannot be altered administratively as it falls entirely within the lakeshore. The new driveway is pulled back away from the OHWL compared to the existing driveway location. The applicant proposes a new driveway turnaround, and patio/pool area outside of the lakeshore, however, the sidewalk connecting this area to the front entry of the house would result in new hardcover within the lakeshore. A sidewalk to the front door is required. Lastly, the applicant is proposed a new deck configuration. A previous LA application was approved for a new deck on this property (LA24-000046). That deck was not installed. The applicant is proposed a new deck roughly 2 feet above grade as part of this application. The deck is proposed over an existing patio. Variance (Section 6.12.530) 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: The requested variances are in harmony with the intent and purpose of the ordinance. The lakeshore setback significantly impacts the house and property, and the applicant’s proposal involves the decrease of hardcover within the lakeshore at the expense of minor expansions to the existing house within the lakeshore. This criterion is met. 2. The variance is consistent with the comprehensive plan: The proposed variance to add on to maintain and improve an existing single-family residential use is consistent with the Plan. This criterion is met. 135 LA25-000043 20 October 2025 Page 4 of 8 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 proposal to improve the existing conditions with minimal expansions in the lakeshore is reasonable. This criterion is met. b. There are circumstances unique to the property not created by the landowner: The property has a buildable envelope less than the width of the existing house, making most improvements to the home expansions within the lakeshore. This criterion is met. c. The variance will not alter the essential character of the locality: The character of the locality will not be altered, as the proposed work improves the existing conditions of the site and involves the rehabilitation of an existing house, in place of demolishing and replacing the house. 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 are not a practical difficulty supporting the applicant’s request. This criterion is met. 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: A single-family residence is permitted within LR-1B zoning. This criterion is met. 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: Most properties the 75-foot lakeshore setback impacts only on one side, whereas the subject property is impacted by this setback on three sides. The buildable envelope is as narrow as 22-feet and 37% of the existing house footprint is within this envelope. Based on the configuration of the house on the property, even minor expansions are within the lakeshore, making the improvement of the site challenging. This criterion is met. 136 LA25-000043 20 October 2025 Page 5 of 8 9. The conditions do not apply generally to other land or structures in the district in which the land is located: The conditions of the property are unique and generally do not apply to other properties where the lakeshore setback surrounds a property as significantly. The driveway to the house is fully within the lakeshore and hardcover modifications at this location are limited, in this case the driveway is being shifted further from the OHWL. 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 granting of variances for the homeowner is necessary for the preservation and enjoyment of a substantial property right. Without relief from the shoreland overlay standards, the house cannot be substantially improved or altered, nor the driveway relocated further inland. 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: The granting of variances will not be contrary to the intent of the zoning code, nor impact the health, safety, comfort, and morals of the community. The applicant’s request involves minimal expansions of the existing home and results in a net reduction in hardcover in the lakeshore, which is an improvement for the property given the substantial lake frontage it has. 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: Staff finds the granting of the requested variances for both the house modifications and hardcover alteration would be reasonable given the practical difficulties of the lakeshore impacting the property. 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. Conditional Use Permit (Sections 6.12.6240 and 6.12.4090) Section 6.12.6240(5)c states: “A wall in the shore setback zone, within a defined bluff and bluff setback; and/or a replacement wall 4 feet in height or greater; and/or any new walls shall require a conditional use permit. New walls and replacement walls greater than 4 feet in height must meet the following conditions. The wall must be…”: 1. Designed to correct an established erosion problem: The existing timber walls have deteriorated significantly and have failed to adequately provide soil stability in this area. The change in material to limestone and the 2.4-foot extension will better address the existing conditions of the failed wall and prevent stormwater from impacting the building. 2. Suitable given the demonstrated need: The proposed walls are suitable and have been articulated to address the conditions the existing walls failed to contain. 137 LA25-000043 20 October 2025 Page 6 of 8 3. Designed by a registered engineer or landscape architect, depending on the project scope: The applicant has provided a licensed engineer’s letter attesting to the need for the new retaining wall. 4. Designed to be the minimum size necessary to control the erosion problem: The size increase of the proposed wall compared to the existing wall can provide better soil retention and help reduce the impacts of stormwater on the building. In addition to the conditions listed in Section 6.12.6240, Section 6.12.4090 provides a list of conditions supporting Conditional Use Permit (CUP) issuance. The Planning Commission may recommend and the Council may grant a CUP as the use permit was applied for or in modified form. Based on the application and the evidence submitted, the city must find that the proposed use at the proposed location is or will be: 1. Consistent with the community management plan: The walls are proposed to address existing and persistent slope stability and soil retention issues, an aspect consistent with the Plan. This criterion is met. 2. 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 a slope. The existing wall has deteriorated and the conditions of the slope are negatively impacting the building. This criterion is met. 3. Adequately served by police, fire, roads, and stormwater management: The property meets this standard. 4. Provided with an adequate water supply and sewage disposal system: The property meets this standard. 5. Not expected to generate excessive demand for public services at public cost: This proposal is not anticipated to impact public services. 6. Compatible with the surrounding area as the area is used both presently and as it is planned to be used in the future: The proposed wall is replacing a wall in poor condition and will better retain soil of the slope that sits above the channel between Maxwell and Stubbs Bays. The proposed wall is compatible with the area, and is better suited for the conditions of the slope than the existing wall. This criterion is met. 7. Consistent with the character of the surrounding area, unless a change of character is called for in the community management plan: The proposed walls are consistent with the character of the surrounding area, as they are only extended to better address the conditions and drainage patterns of the slopes. The walls will be screened from the lake view as they are interior to the current embankment on the property. This criterion is met. 138 LA25-000043 20 October 2025 Page 7 of 8 8. 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 walls are compatible with the character of other lakeshore improvements in the surrounding area. This criterion is met. 9. 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: The improvements to the slope with grading and the proposed retaining walls should not adversely impact other properties in the neighborhood. This criterion is met. 10. Provided with screening and buffering adequate to mitigate undesirable views and activities likely to disturb surrounding uses: The proposed walls are providing stability on the inland side of the slope, where the walls would be hidden from the adjacent channel. Landscaping has been proposed above the walls, but would impede access to the building if located near the bottom of wall. The building partially screens the wall from the northwest, and a majority of the wall is perpendicular to the north with some new trees proposed, adequately screening the wall from the lake. This criterion is met. 11. Not create a nuisance which generates smoke, noise, glare, vibration, odors, fumes, dust, electrical interference, general unsightliness, or other means: The proposal is not anticipated to create a nuisance. 12. 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 proposal will not create excessive traffic burdens on the nearby road network. 13. Designed to take into account the natural, scenic, and historic features of the area and to minimize environmental impact: The proposed limestone wall is designed to be a small extension of the existing, deteriorated timber wall and will be supporting the slope around the building. The increase in size of the wall is to limit future environmental impact with better soil retention and stormwater flow away from the building. This criterion is met. 14. 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 proposal does not include the installation of any exterior lighting. 15. Not detrimental to the public health, public safety, or general welfare: Staff finds the proposal does not come at a detriment to the public health, safety, or welfare of residents and landowners of the City of Orono. This criterion is met. A CUP may be granted subject to such conditions as the Council may prescribe. Additionally, a CUP shall remain in effect as long as the conditions imposed by the City Council are observed, but nothing in this section shall prevent the city from enacting or amending official controls to change the status of conditional uses. 139 LA25-000043 20 October 2025 Page 8 of 8 Public Comments No public comments have been received as of the submittal of this report.

The proposed design of the site, house and plantings offer an integrated solution – aiming to improve the lot’s relationship with the shoreline and Lake Minnetonka waters. Prior to summarizing the challenges and proposed solutions, the project goals will be summarized. The existing home was designed by John Howe – a famed former lead of Frank Lloyd Wright’s studio and historically admired continuum of Prairie Style’s transitional aspects in mid-century modernity. This 1975 house is an archetypal model of that aesthetic transition; and the new Owner purchased it with no intention of demolishing and rebuilding on the lot. Much like Howe’s architectural homage to Prairie Style with ebb-and-flow into transitional modernity; the new 865 Partenwood Owner & project team were committed to evolving aspects of the home as-built while preserving the existing general aesthetic. The exterior massing and earthen material palate of the exterior are of the same naturally-harmonic order with the existing. The proposed volume of the new home utilizes almost the exact footprint of the existing while adding three modest and longitudinal cupolas and hallway dormers. These illuminating masses peek above the existing rooflines only a few feet while providing excellent daylight and tripane efficiency to elevate the health of the family and reduce use of electric lighting. The north face of the kitchen will be removed and the foundation below this and the porches will dialed back 18” further from the shore for the proposed Kitchen “addition” (item #1. In drawings) that will better accommodate hungry four-bedroom house family and guests; while the modest accompanying Dining area extension provides a Prairie Style- esque “node” for dining that is intimate – allowing the exterior of new “Robie House” brick to alleviate the oblong angle that ties the existing home’s kitchen and living spaces. The solution of the Dining extension (item #2) does not extend further west than the existing westernmost foundation for the existing kitchen and 2nd level structure. It is an architecturally correct and modest spatial proposal. Atop the Kitchen on the upper level is the proposed “extension” of the Primary Bedroom 1 (item #3) which occupies the area of the existing deck. Note the accompanying Bathroom extension (item #4). Down the dormer-lit Upper Level Hall on the northeast end of the home is the Primary Suite 2 which offers a new small 24sf balcony off the bedroom that mimics the existing two balconies to the southwest; and resolve an otherwise flat and pillar- like elevation in this corner from the exterior. The accompanying overhang and the balcony are more harmonic with the existing home elements and overhangs. This corner of the home is nestled along and behind much existing foliage and trees to the east and north- 147 northeast; and the roof directs rain away from the house better than the existing troublesome condition (more on the Roof item #8, later). A balcony off of the Suite bathroom is completely beneath both the existing and proposed roof overhang. The existing area of the Primary suite #2 contained structurally unstable and deteriorating stairs from the upper level to grade; and this condition is removed. By removing it, the head clearance from the garage’s back door to the north shore is made safe. The existing stair is as low as 5.5’. The proposed condition in this area includes replacing the dilapidated timber retaining wall (designed to accompany the stairs) with 30” x 40” limestone blocks. The proposed limestone increases the lineal distance (of the timber walls) by three feet; and the extra square footage will provide robust and lasting divergent for stormwater and earth management, protruding northbound past much of the deck face to accommodate the eastern ridge’s flow of rain water and snow melt towards the existing home and proposed deck. Rain and snowmelt have been a hindrance on the existing home due to the existing rooflines that are not adequate for keeping rain, ice dams, snowmelt from the face of the home and foundation – particularly in a north-facing (and south-facing) shoreline condition. 148 Note the oblong and awkward roof conditions in the images. The new roof’s aesthetic and occupant well-being advantages are less important than the necessary improvements to the roof’s management of water on site that direct runoff in the same directions as the existing, but more substantially away from the home. The roof eave penetrations offer further means of indirect sunlight for home occupants, a stunning nod to prairie style and modernist practices, and a gentle improvement to the experience of the home from those passing by on the lake. Folks will also observe brick pillars on the north that are in-line with John Howe’s existing pillars to the south and west. Otherwise, the existing north elevation is flat, drab, and surely nothing that Frank Lloyd Wright would complement Howe and the original owners for. The primary site redesign goals were to lessen the distances and methods of access to the house, to improve the access from the garage to the north shore (dock/boat), to reduce hardscape near the shoreline while providing more trees and extents of native plantings than existing. Note how the driveway has been moved further from the south shore. This accompanies a 17% reduction of hardscape within the setback. The design utilizes the narrow +-22’ strip of buildable land (and the easement) for the driveway turnaround – developed for eliminating (large) family and friend groups from parking on the City street, for respect to the sounds and views of neighbors near the culdesac, and ability for service teams to access the lot and dock. Please explore the two Site and House documents to further consider our proposed design. The design may well be an integrated improvement to the existing conditions, character and health of the lot, it’s surrounding ecology and experiences. Please approve all aspects of the proposed design. 149 12 Criteria for Practical Difficulties addressed: 1. The Variance is in harmony with the general intent and purposes of the Ordinance. The site and house renovation design decreases the hardcover within the setback by 17 %. An existing asphalt driveway will be removed and replaced with a driveway up to 12 feet further from the south lakeshore than the existing, while providing over 4000sf of dense native plantings to improve the site’s ability to filter stormwater. The new site design moves hardscape away from the shorelands and aims to improve the natural characteristics of the site to support shoreline soil health and stability. 2. The variance is consistent with Orono’s comprehensive plan – supporting the City’s principal goal of protecting the water quality of Lake Minnetonka. In harmony with criteria item 1. above, the new roof design and minimal changes to grade near the home mimic the existing flow of stormwater off the house and site in an almost precisely similar manner as the existing house and site. The proposed increase of total lot hardscape of less than 1% is minimal compared to the improvement of conditions and hardscape within the setback that aspire to support Maxwell Bay and Stubbs Bay shorelines and the greater Lake Minnetonka’s water health. 3. A.) the functional purposes of the lot and home use are reasonable for a single family lifestyle on the lake – including safe egress and access to and from the garage to the lakeshore with the existing dock (Stubbs Bay) and existing deck (to be replaced). B.) There is less than 8% of the lot that is outside of the setback, and the majority of the existing home existing within the setback. The Owner’s goals of renovating rather than demolishing and rebuilding offer difficulties. The modest expansions of the house footprint (by less than 5sf) and the reductions of setback hardscape aim are the proposed solutions to the challenges inherent to the site and the existing home. The roof’s dimension from the top plate of the walls is less than 6” and not amenable to adequate insulation to provide a minimally comfortable, hardly condensation resistant, and code compliant R10 of insulation while also properly ventilating the roof and circulating air – namely to the upper north-facing areas of the home. To improve the house energy efficiency, thermal comfort, and to alleviate long term air infiltration, circulation, and condensation: the most sustainable solution for the 100- year health of the house and it’s occupants is to remove and replace it; and the design accounts for substantial Structural Engineering proposed by Craig Schaper (included in drawings). The improvements and expansion of natural light via new windows and the cupolas pay homage to Howe & Wright’s architecture while beautifying the views from the lake on the lot in a modest manner and providing 150 daylight to the family within the home to improve mental health and connection to nature. C.) the variance will not alter the essential character of the locality. The views from Maxwell Bay, Stubbs Bay, the Channel, and neighboring homes will be in harmony with the existing views; and the general aesthetic improvements to the home and site are of a similar mid-century modern aesthetic. The increase in height of the roof is no more than 17” taller than the highest point of the existing roof; and the anchoring visual element of the existing chimney (the highest point of the existing home will remain and be restored with a new cap. 4. The Owner and project team’s goals of maintaining the existing house footprint with limited alterations to the footprint of the house has its cost-saving advantages compared to proposing to demolish and rebuild the home in a reasonable manner for the site. However, the hypothetical challenges of demo and rebuilding on the site in a reasonable manner offer the same (or even more) practical difficulties concerning the nature of the site and the limited area outside of the setback. Renovation offers the principal of maintaining the aesthetic and experiential views for those looking in on the lot and those living on it. Preserving the general character of the lot and house - while potentially improving shoreline health by eliminating hardscape within the setback – among others - are more noteworthy than the economic advantages. 5. Access to sunlight and solar energy is not a goal of the site and home renovation. 6. The use of the home and site do not conflict with any Chapter 78 zoning regulations – including sections 1367, 1368,1369, nor 1370 7. The home is a single family dwelling. There is no intention of the home being a two- family dwelling. 8. The nature of the peninsula lot, the minimal available land outside of the setback, and the existing house footprint are combined variables that offer peculiar challenges for even modest alterations to the house footprint, and for reductions of hardscape within the setback. 9. The nature of peninsula lots in Orono offer similar challenges on lots where two shorelines flanking an existing home are as little as 175 feet apart – offering as narrow of a 22 foot strip of buildable land without Variance approval. 10. The Owner and project team’s proposed design serves to offer reasonable solutions to the practical difficulties while accommodating the Owners property rights. 11. The proposed design – where constructed and completed – will not in any way impair the health of the community. In fact, it offers the Owner and visitors to the owner more accessible and safe access to the home (via the new driveway and walkway, and the improved access from the garage to the north shore and dock). The design does not disrupt the safety of the community in anyway; and for the owner and visitors of the lot. The aesthetic of the proposed design aims to be comfortable on 151 the views from the lake, neighbors, and culdesac in a manner varying little from the existing comfort of the lot experience. 12. The descriptions provided outline how the approval of the variance alleviates the difficulties inherent to the site, existing house, and setback prescriptions. Solutions to these difficulties are relatively modest and intend to foster the principles of Orono to protect Lake Minnetonka’s health while altering the community experience of the lot minimally (and attempting to improve it). 152 153 S I T E D R A W I N G S & D O C S 865 PARTENWOOD ROAD ORONO 1...........................

Specifically, elements related to the retaining wall replacement and grading improvements on the east side of the house. Information reviewed included the following documents prepared by you dated October 7, 2025: 1. Site Drawings & Documents 2. Architectural House Plans 3. Variance Submittal In my professional opinion, the proposed retaining wall replacement and grading corrections are required for the long-term performance of the project. 1. The existing retaining wall is not structurally adequate due to its deteriorated condition. Replacement is required to re-establish retention of the backfill soils on the east side of the house. The proposed stone retaining wall will help to provide sufficient soil retention. Refer to the retaining wall design submitted separately. 2. The existing grading on the east side of the house should be corrected as proposed to better direct surface water away from the house foundation and replacement retaining wall. As part of this work, the replacement retaining wall should be extended several feet as proposed. Please call with any additional questions you may have.

This design is based on wall layout information provided by you in an email dated October 9, 2025, and subsequent dates including Site Drawings & Documents, Architectural House Plans, and a Variance Submittal prepared by Takka Day Design dated October 7, 2025. The attached typical section(s) should be referenced for construction details. Special note should be made of the wall embedment depth and the geosynthetic fabric (geogrid) length as measured from the front face of the wall, if applicable. Refer to industry standard practice references for installation information, specifications, and details. - Boulders shall be placed to avoid continuous joint planes in vertical directions. - Each stone shall bear on two or more rocks below it with good flat-to-flat contact. - Compact any structural fill place behind the drainage zone to 95% standard proctor. - Install non-woven landscape fabric behind the stone to limit soil migration through the wall face. - Drainage stone shall consist of clean sand or 3/4” to 1.5” crushed stone. The design of the wall system is specific to the following parameters:  Location: Replacement of the deteriorated existing retaining wall and necessary improvements to the grading on the east side of the house as stated in your Variance Submittal.  Maximum exposed height(s): 5.5 feet  Minimum embedment depth = 6“, or as noted  Soil conditions: Silty/clayey sand, friction angle = 30.0 degrees, unit weight of 120.0 lb/ft3  Required soil bearing capacity = 1500 psf  Surcharge load behind the wall: 50 psf  5:1 maximum slope at top of wall; 5:1 maximum slope at bottom of wall  Boulder sizes: see cross section drawing  Geosynthetic Reinforcement Fabric Type: Not required  Drainage pipe: Required This wall system has not been designed for ground water surcharge loads. Direct all surface drainage away from the wall. Methods to do so include but are not limited to the following: drainage swale, site grading, retention ponds, etc. Details of water control are left to the wall contractor. Additional information requested by Criterium-Twin Cities Engineers but not available includes: geotechnical site survey and soil data. Please contact Criterium-Twin Cities to provide additional site assessment services if desired. 188 865 Partenwood Avenue, Orono, Minnesota October 13, 2025 Page | 2    The wall design was performed using the design guidelines presented in the third edition of the “Design Manual for Segmental Retaining Walls” (DMSRW) published by NCMA in 2009 and FHWA Rockery Design and Construction Guidelines. If soil conditions, proposed wall layouts, or any other design parameters vary from those stated above, contact me for a revised design. Please call me if you have any questions or need more information. Thank you. This design has been prepared in strict confidence with you as our client.

Services performed by CTCE under this agreement will be conducted in a manner consistent with that level of care and skill that is ordinarily exercised by members of the profession currently practicing under similar conditions at the time the services are performed. No other warranty, express or implied, is made. Client recognizes that interpretations and recommendations of CTCE are based solely on the information available to the company. CTCE will be responsible for those data, interpretations and recommendations, but shall not be responsible for the interpretation by others of the information developed. Section 2: Charges Services are generally provided on a lump sum or an hourly basis plus necessary out-of-pocket costs. Where appropriate, company and personal vehicles used in conjunction with project work will be charged at the current IRS rate or other stated rate per mile. Vehicle rental or special vehicle requirements will be charged directly to the client. Out-of-pocket costs such as printing, word processing, reproduction, special consultant fees, permits, special equipment, extraordinary insurance, fares, telephone, overnight lodging or meals expense, and other similar project-related costs are billed at cost plus 10 percent. In the event that CTCE shall be charged more than a nominal fee to obtain public information or documents of record from government offices and public agencies CTCE may pass those costs along to you, our client, at cost plus 10 percent in addition to all other fees in our proposal. Section 3: Terms of Payment, Invoice Submittals CTCE requires a retainer fee to be paid before commencing any project. Extended engagements may require interim invoicing on a weekly, monthly, or other basis. At the completion of the project, we will issue a final invoice.

Unless otherwise agreed to in writing, invoices issued to clients with established credit will be due upon receipt. Failure to pay invoices within the allotted time period will constitute a breach of contract and may result in suspension of work until such time as all overdue payments are made in full. Should any suspension occur because of overdue payments, the time for contract completion, if any is stated, shall be extended by the period of the suspension. All outstanding invoiced balances remaining unpaid for thirty (30) days after date of invoice will be charged a finance charge in the amount of 1½ percent per month from the date of invoice, with the annual percentage rate being 18 percent, computed on a monthly basis. In the event that any invoice remains unpaid and it becomes necessary, in the opinion of CTCE, to initiate collection procedures, the client hereby agrees to pay all collection costs including, but not limited to, reasonable fees for attorneys retained by CTCE and court costs at our standard billing rate for time necessitated in court appearances or presentation of claim to the appropriate court jurisdiction. Exceptions to the foregoing “Terms of Payment, Invoice Submittal” must be specified in writing as part of our confirmation letter or project agreement.

The 60-day review period expires on December 2, 2025. 3.Background: The Wayzata Country Club request approval for a new accessory pavilion building internal to the site, near the green of the ninth hole. The building will serve as an amenity for country club members as an outdoor event space, provide restrooms and food/beverage operations, and overall provide services on the golf course itself, opposed to having patrons traverse back to the clubhouse. A conditional use permit is required as the new building is a new expansion on the property which is current operating under a conditional use permit. The proposed building is located to the rear of the main club house and over 700 feet from the nearest adjacent neighbor. 4.Public Comment: No public comments have been received. 5.Staff Recommendation: Planning Staff recommends approval of the conditional use permit as applied. 6.Planning Commission Action Requested: If the commission agrees with staff's analysis; a motion should be made for approval of the application.

The golf course or country club uses are conforming with the underlying RR-1B zoning with a Conditional Use Permit (CUP). The applicant proposes a new accessory building, a pavilion, that will be located near the green of the ninth hole, and will serve as an amenity for the country club’s members. The pavilion will allow for the country club to better host events, provide service closer to the course, and to facilitate use of a putting course. The proposed building will contain restrooms, with water and sewer connections, and contain a bar serving alcoholic beverages and some food options. Conditional Use Permit Analysis: The applicant has provided a cover letter, a site plan, building details/renderings, and a note from the country club regarding lighting. The site plan submitted shows the existing tree canopy around the internal location of the proposed building, indicating there is sufficient screening of the building off-site. An amended CUP is required when there is an intensification of the land use subject to the CUP, this includes an increase in building square footage. The applicant has indicated that the proposed building will be used as an amenity for the country club members and that the building itself will not draw additional traffic to the site than the existing use would. Per City Code Section 6.12.1830(1), golf courses and country clubs are permitted in RR-1B zoning district by CUP, provided all principal buildings are at least 100 feet from adjacent properties zoned for residential use, and all accessory buildings and structures more than six feet in height are located at least 50 feet from any adjacent property zoned for residential use. The proposed building location is over 700 feet from the nearest adjacent residence. Conditional Use Permit (Section 6.12.1830) The Planning Commission may recommend and the Council may grant a CUP as the use permit was applied for or in modified form. Based on the application and the evidence submitted, the city must find that the proposed use at the proposed location is or will be: Application Summary: The applicant requests an amendment to an existing conditional use permit to construct a new accessory pavilion building. Staff Recommendation: Planning Staff recommends approval of the request as applied. 201 LA25-000045 20 October 2025 Page 2 of 4 1. Consistent with the community management plan: The ongoing use of the property as a golf course is a conditional use that conforms with the Plan. This criterion is met. 2. Compliant with the zoning code, including any conditions imposed on specific uses as required by Article V, Division 3 of the City Code: The proposal is compliant with the zoning code and is not subject to additional conditions imposed based on the existing and proposed land uses. This criterion is met. 3. Adequately served by police, fire, roads, and stormwater management: The property meets this standard. 4. Provided with an adequate water supply and sewage disposal system: The property meets this standard. 5. Not expected to generate excessive demand for public services at public cost: This proposal is not anticipated to impact public services. 6. Compatible with the surrounding area as the area is used both presently and as it is planned to be used in the future: The use of the property is not changing with the addition of the proposed accessory building, and this use is compatible with the surrounding area. This criterion is met. 7. Consistent with the character of the surrounding area, unless a change of character is called for in the community management plan: The character of the area is defined by golf courses, and the proposed building, as a golf course amenity, supports this use. This criterion is met. 8. 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: There are few, if any, buildings or site improvements in the area outside of the golf course itself. The proposed building will be compatible with the existing principal clubhouse building within the country club. This criterion is met. 9. 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: The proposed building will not impair the use and enjoyment of property in the area. The proposed building is in a centralized location on the property and is to serve as an additional amenity for the existing golf course use. This criterion is met. 202 LA25-000045 20 October 2025 Page 3 of 4 10. Provided with screening and buffering adequate to mitigate undesirable views and activities likely to disturb surrounding uses: The proposed building is over 300 feet from Old Long Lake Road and over 700 feet from the nearest residence, and is in a location that is adequately screened by the existing inventory of trees on the site. This criterion is met. 11. Not create a nuisance which generates smoke, noise, glare, vibration, odors, fumes, dust, electrical interference, general unsightliness, or other means: The proposal is not anticipated to create a nuisance. The proposed building location is internal to the site and is only to be used during country club business hours. This criterion is met. 12. 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 proposed building is planned to be used as an additional amenity for the existing members of the country club. An increase in traffic to and from the site for this accessory building is not anticipated. This criterion is met. 13. Designed to take into account the natural, scenic, and historic features of the area and to minimize environmental impact: The location of the proposed building is for accessibility and convenience of members of the golf course. This location is on the course itself and utilizes an existing level location with ample screening, where grading and site work would be minimal. This criterion is met. 14. 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 proposal will provide exterior lighting. The applicant has indicated the lighting for the building will be downcast and a lighting plan will be provided with the building permit submittal. The proposed building is in an internal location on the site where off-site glare should be minimal, if at all. This criterion is met. 15. Not detrimental to the public health, public safety, or general welfare: Staff does not anticipate the new accessory building to come at a detriment to public health, safety, or welfare. This criterion is met. A CUP may be granted subject to such conditions as the Council may prescribe. Additionally, a CUP shall remain in effect as long as the conditions imposed by the City Council are observed, but nothing in this section shall prevent the city from enacting or amending official controls to change the status of conditional uses. Public Comments No public comments have been submitted as of the writing of this report. Planning Staff Recommendation Staff recommends approval of the Conditional Use Permit as applied. 203 LA25-000045 20 October 2025 Page 4 of 4 List of Exhibits Exhibit A. Staff Report Exhibit B.

This will be a multi-purpose facility that will serve our Club members in a variety of ways, most notably: ● The Club hosts many outdoor events for our members and this structure will provide restrooms, outdoor seating, a bar for beverage service, and limited food offerings. It will not be possible to provide food and beverage service from the main Clubhouse to our event lawn so the proposed structure will be a key amenity to serve our members. ● Part of our golf course renovation project was the construction of a large putting course that is adjacent to our event lawn. The proposed structure will provide a facility to serve our members while they enjoy the putting course and restrooms to use instead of having to walk all the way back to the Clubhouse. ● This facility will also act as a “halfway house” for our golfers as it will be in close proximity to the 9th green and this will allow members to get food and beverages and use the restrooms before heading to the back nine. We understand that Club use is located within the RR-1B, 2-acre One-Family Residential District and is permitted through a Conditional Use Permit (CUP). Improvements and changes to the site and use must be addressed through the CUP process. The CUP requires an amendment to permit and approve this project. Please consider the attached information and contact us with any questions. We have enjoyed a wonderful relationship with the City of Orono and our neighbors around the golf course and are confident that this structure will not only be a great new amenity for our members but also something that is in keeping with the high standards of both WCC and the City of Orono. Thank you very much.

Designed to be the minimum size necessary to control the erosion problem.If the project includes work at or below the OHWL or within WCA jurisdictional wetland, that portion of the project must be approved and/or permitted by the appropriate governing agency. (6) Average lakeshore setback. No principal or accessory building shall be located closer to the ordinary high-water line (OHWL) on a lakeshore lot than the average distance from the shoreline of existing principal buildings on adjacent lots; this does not apply to patios and other accessory structures less than 42 inches above existing grade and/or stairways, lifts, landings, lockboxes, flagpoles and pump houses. Further, the average lakeshore setback shall apply only to classified lakes and shall not apply to tributaries. The average lakeshore setback line shall be a straight line connecting the most lakeward protrusions of the principal buildings on the immediately adjacent lakeshore lots. a. In situations where improvement is proposed on a lot adjacent to a vacant lot or right-of-way, the average lake shore setback shall be equivalent to the setback of the most lakeward protrusion of the principal building on the immediately adjacent improved lakeshore lot.
