Re: Fagerness Marsh, 1800 Fagerness Point Road
Dear Mr. Nelson:
Your letter of July 18, 1978 to Mayor Van Nest was discussed at
the August 15, 1978 City Council meeting. The Council declined
your offer of the land finding it to be apparently encumbered
with private easements v.!,ich would be of no benefit to the public.
In addition, the Counci termined that Eberhardt Company as
land owner is responsil- or complying with those ordinances
which require annual lit:.asing of joint use or multiple docks.
Licenses are required from the City and from the Lake Minnetonka
Conservation District. Refer to the attached application form
and copy of Orono Municipal Code Chapter 74.
Be advised that such multiple docks are no longer permitted in
this zoning district. The burden of proof will be on Eberhardt
Company to show that the easements were properly created and
recorded prior to adoption of the current code. Eberhardt Company
will be responsible for removing the docks or for obtaining the
required licenses prior to March -5, 1979.
Please contact me if you have any questions.
Sincerely,
tnP. Olson
Village Planner
