7:00 o'clock p.m.
(#02-2740 JEFFRY AND NANCY TWIDWELL, Continued)
Mr. Switzer and Mrs . Twidwell, Applicant, had nothing to add to Staffs report.
Nygard commented he likes the idea of requiring replacement of the trees .
White moved, Nygard seconded, to approve and adopt RESOLUTION NO. 4792, a Resolution
granting a hardcover variance in the 75-250' zone for the construction of a new residence to replace
the existing residence on the property located at 1865 Concordia Street.
VOTE: Ayes 4, Nays 0.
(#5) #02-2749 THOMAS P. EGAN, 350,360 AND 370 BIG ISLAND -VACATION OF RIGHT-
OF-WAY -RESOLUTION NO. 4796
Thomas Egan, Applicant, was present.
Weinberger stated the applicants have requested vacation of a portion of a platted right-of-way on the
south side of the Island, noting this item was reviewed by the Park Commission at their March 4th
meeting . The Park Commission recommended approval of this particular vacation, with the Commission
finding that the development of public trails may result in over-use of Big Island, finding that there are
very few homes on the island, with the trails possibly causing overuse of Big Island and resulting in
security issues. Staff had noted there are limited police and fire services provided to the Island, with no
developed roads on the island . Weinberger stated trespassing is a problem on Big Island, which was
another reason for the vacation.
The Planning Commission at their March 19 th meeting had discussed the possible value of Massasoit
Avenue in the future . Weinberger noted the Applicant 's cabin is completely wi thin the right-of-way.
Weinberger stated due to the 75 ' lakeshore setback, a number of the cabins would need to be moved out
of the right-of-way should they ever be redeveloped .
Weinberger stated the City does have a policy that right-of-ways not be vacated if they provide access to
the lake , but noted there is no public access to the lake that is being eliminated by this vacation , with all
interior access also being maintained.
Weinberger noted the vacation also does not affect any public utilities.
Nygard inquired whether those lots are legal conforming lots without vacating and whether vacation of
the right-of-way would make them conforming.
Weinberger stated to his knowledge two of the lots ha ve been granted variances to lot area, with the
minimum lot size on Big Island being five acres. Weinberger stated the City in the early 1980s had
chosen to make the lots record lots rather than rezoning . Weinberger stated a concern for rezoning this
area was due to the possible over-development of Big Island.
Gaffron stated this vacation would not significantly change the character of any lot in the area. Gaffron
stated Staff did review whether this access would eliminate any lake access , which this vacation does not.

Monday, April 22, 2002
7:00 o'clock p.m.
(#02-2749 Thomas Egan, Continued)
Gaffron noted the Park Commission did not feel there was a need for a trail in this area. Gaffron stated
there really are no public destinations on Big Island, and construction of a trail raises issues dealing with
trespassing and police protection.
Nygard stated he would like to have one of the adjoining property owners trade some land in exchange for
the vacation.
Weinberger indicated the property owner did not express an interest in wanting to do that.
Gaffron stated the residents of Big Island have a concern about allowing unlimited access to the general
public on Big Island.
Nygard commented he is interested in protecting access on Big Island. Nygard stated he would be in
support of this application if one of the neighbors would be in favor of giving the City some land to allow
the right-of-way to be extended to the lake.
Flint indicated he typically does not vote in favor of vacations, but was satisfied following the review by
the Park Commission that a trail is not needed in this area. Flint inquired whether there is a bluff in this
area.
Gaffron stated access on the southwest side would be difficult due to the topography of the land, and on
the east side of the Island there is some potential for a vehicle to access the Island.
Egan indicated he does not have anything to add to Staffs report.
Flint indicated the comments by Nygard have caused him to rethink the way he feels regarding this
application, but noted that Staff feels there is access on the east side of the Island.
Gaffron stated Massasoit A venue would need to be extended in order to provide access to the lake.
Flint moved, Peterson seconded, to approve and adopt RESOLUTION NO. 4796, a Resolution
vacating a dedicated right-of-way within the plat of Morse Island Park Second Addition.
Nygard reiterated that he would still like to have the property owner donate some land to the City
in exchange for the right-of-way.
Flint inquired what the City would gain by the property owner granting some land to the City.
Nygard stated it would insure access. Nygard stated if the right-of-way is extended to the lake, without
the additional land, there would not be any lakeshore for the property to the west.
White noted the rest of the road is undeveloped.
Gaffron stated the easterly lot is owned in common by another property owner who has indicated he is not
interested in donating land to the City in exchange for the vacation.

(#02-2749 Thomas Egan, Continued)
Gaffron inquired whether the City should request that an easement be granted by the property owner to
the other residents of the Island.
Nygard stated that would solve the situation.
Peterson commented she would be uncomfortable requesting an easement.
Egan stated to gain access to those properties you would use Lakeland A venue. Egan stated they are not
asking to vacate any portions of Lakeland but are asking to vacate a portion of an interior roadway that is
not currently being used. Egan stated another access that is currently being used is Massasoit A venue.
Egan stated the vacation will not affect access to any of the interior properties but would help free up the
title to his property.
VOTE: Ayes 3, Nays 1, Nygard Opposed.
(#6) #02-2762 TIMOTHY AND MARY SWEEZO, 4480 WATERTOWN ROAD -VARIANCES -
RESOLUTION NO. 4791
Timothy and Mary Sweezo, Applicants, were present.
Weinberger stated the Applicants are requesting several variances that would allow removal of the
existing house and construction of a new three-bedroom residence on the property. The current house
was constructed in approximately 1900. The entire property consists of approximately four acres, with
two-thirds of the property consisting of wetlands. The property is located in the RR-lA zoning district,
which has a minimum lot size of five acres, a front setback of 100 feet, and a side setback of 50 feet.
Weinberger stated there are a number of accessory buildings on the property, with the property being used
as a hobby farm.
Weinberger stated the applicants are proposing a one story, three-bedroom residence, two car attached
garage, which would be built partially within the front setback, 53 feet where 100 feet is required. The
residence would also be located 42 feet from the side property line where 50 feet are required. The
applicants are requesting a number of the accessory buildings remain on the property during the
construction phase, which requires a variance.
The Planning Commission recommended, on a vote of 4 to 3, approval of the application. Weinberger
indicated the building site is limited due to the location of the accessory structures, the well, and the
sewer. The applicants have indicated in their view this location is the best place for the new residence,
with adequate screening in the front from Watertown Road. The Planning Commission also further found
the actual building portion of this property is just under 1.5 acres. Weinberger noted that if this property
were located in a two acre zoning district, it would meet all the required setbacks.

NOTIFICATION OF 60 DAY EXTENSION
RE: Application #02-2749
350, 360 and 370 Big Island
Dear Mr. Egan:
Mailing Address:
P.O. Box 66
Crystal Bay, MN 55323-0066
State law requires that Cities shall decide on zoning applications within 60 days from the date an
application is considered complete. The review period may be extended by notification to the
applicant.
Your application was complete on January 23, 2002. The 60 day review period expires on March 20,
2002. The City Council briefly discussed the application at their meeting on February 25, 2002 and
followed the Planning Commission recommendation to request the Park Commission review
applications for vacations within the City of Orono, including Big Island. The Park Commission will
discuss public land vacations, in general, at their next scheduled meeting. The date of that meeting is
March 4, 2002. The earliest potential date the City Council can review your application will be some
time after the Park Commission has had an opportunity to complete their review. Because the 60 day
review period will likely not be until after March 20 th , the City of Orono has extended the review
period an additional 60 days to May 19, 2002.
Please do not hesitate to contact me should you have questions.

NOTES AND SPECIAL CONDITIONS:
0 AGAINST
The Planning Commission reviewed the proposal and noted there may be a public value to Massasoit
A venue as a potential trail. The cabins located within the right of way restricts public pedestrian use
of the corridor. The entire corridor is almost entirely within 75' of the lakeshore. No buildings could
replace the cabins when the time comes for the lots to redevelop. The cabins would have to be
moved back on the property to meet all current setback requirements. To keep the interests of the
public in mind, the Planning Commission noted the right of way may serve a future public use as
island as a future trail corridor.
Also noted was the potential for one or two public access points to the lakeshore. The survey
indicates the existing right of way does not reach the Ordinary High Water Level (929.4') of Lake
Minnetonka. Therefore there is no public lake access at the south end of the peninsula. The
Planning Commission discussed the option of an exchange ofland for the vacation to acquire enough
property to provide public access to the lakeshore.
Based on the potential use of the corridor as a public recreational trail, the Planning Commission felt
they would like the Park Commission to review the proposal. The applicant stated he did not wish to
have the Park Commission review and would prefer to discuss the proposal with the City Council.
The Planning Commission voted 6-0 to recommend denial of the application. Planning Commission
felt the public future use of the right of way as a trail should be reviewed by the Park Commission
before they make a recommendation. The Planning Commission did request the City Council
consider forwarding this application, and all future applications for vacating public property, to the
Park Commission for their review and recommendation.
You are scheduled to appear before the City Council on Monday, February 25, 2002. If you have any
questions please contact the Zoning Department at (952) 249-4600.

Marzan stated in his view the stairway and retaining wall have not been maintained well, and that he
would like to remove the excess debris away from the walls. Marzan indicated they would paint the
shed more of an earth tone color to blend in better with the lakeshore.
Rahn noted the shed is not in anyone 's line of sight.
Mabusth inquired whether the shed could be brought into conformance while construction is going on.
Marzan indicated he would really like to retain the shed and that he would be willing to paint it another
color if possible. Marzan stated if it is not possible to keep the shed, he will comply with whatever the
Planning Commission decides.
Hawn stated it is her impression from the comments that the Planning Commission would like to see the
shed replaced with a lock box.
Smith, Rahn, and Fritzler stated in their view the shed should be reduced in size.
Kluth reiterated he would allow the structure to remain until such time as it needs to be replaced .
Mabusth noted no major structural repairs are allowed on non-conforming structures.
Mabusth moved, Hawn seconded, to recommend approval of Application #02-2748,
Richard A. and Nancy Marzan, 2795 Pheasant Road, granting of a hardcover variance to allow
the existing stairway and 216 square foot deck to remain in the 0-75' setback area, along with the

painted an earth tone color, and further subject to the Applicants being placed on notice that the

10:29 p.m. -11:10 p.m.
Thomas Egan, Applicant, was present.
The Certificate of Mailing and Affidavit of Publication were noted.
Weinberger stated the Applicant has requested that a portion of platted "Massasoit Avenue" be vacated.
Massasoit Avenue is an undeveloped right-of-way on Big Island originally dedicated on the plat of
Morse Island Park. The right-of-way has been used by Big Island residents and guests for interior
pedestrian access to parts of the lakeshore and , periodically, for vehicular traffic for transporting
materials for home construction and septic installation. The right-of-way is also used by utility
companies for electric and phone service to the Island properties .

MINUTES OF THE
ORONO PLANNING COMMISSION
Tuesday, February 19, 2002
6:30 o'clock p.m.
(#02-2749 Thomas Egan, Continued)
Weinberger indicated the City of Orono maintains public access to the Island for pedestrian and other
types of use. Weinberger stated the City does have a policy not to vacate any public accesses to the
lake.
Weinberger stated the portion of the right-of-way requested for vacation is not a right-of-way that
provides access to the public waters. The City of Orono has notified all public utilities of the vacation
request, and Reliant Energy/Minnegasco has responded that they have no facilities in the right-of-way.
Qwest did notify the City that they do have existing facilities within the right-of-way and stated they
respectfully decline the right-of-way vacation request.
Weinberger noted included with the Planning Commission packet is a letter from Rick Jorgenson with
Qwest stating that they respectfully decline the vacation request. Weinberger indicated he has spoken
with Mr. Jorgenson who indicated that Qwest would not be opposed to the vacation of the right-of-way
if it is determined that utility lines are located within the public land and adequate easements are put in
place for the utilities. Weinberger stated it is anticipated that location of the lines will be verified this
Thursday by Gopher One.
Weinberger stated the Public Works Director has reviewed this request, and has no objection to the
vacation of the right-of-way. Weinberger stated the City at this time has no intention to ever use that
portion of the right-of-way for any public purpose.
Weinberger stated the City likes to insure that access is maintained to each individual island over public
land. Weinberger stated public access remains open with the proposed vacation.
Egan presented pictures of the cabin, noting there are trees located on both sides of the cabin. Egan
stated he has a concern that the City may in the future request that the cabin be moved since it is located
within a right-of-way. Egan stated if something happened to the cabin, they would not be able to
rebuild since it is located within the setback and would need to be relocated. Egan stated he is
attempting to avoid any conflicts in the future, and that due to the trees in the area, the road is basically
unusable. Egan noted he has spoken with all the neighbors and he is unaware of any objections to the
vacation.
Smith questioned whether Qwest knows where their utility lines are located .
. Egan stated Qwest did supply a drawing showing that their lines are located down the road. Egan stated
he personally does not feel those are correct, noting there is a junction box that is approximately three
feet tall located in the area where the lines come from, which is different than what Qwest' s drawing
depicts. Egan noted the cabin was constructed sometime in the 1960s.
John Burch, 380 Big Island, indicated he owns the property to the left. Burch stated to his knowledge
the phone lines were put in about 15 years ago and come up to the individual cabins from poles that are
along Lakeview Avenue.
There were no further public comments relating to this application.

(#02-2749 Thomas Egan, Continued)
Gaffron inquired whether the residents were surprised after the survey was done in terms of the actual
location of the cabins in relation to lot lines.
Egan stated before he purchased the property, a survey had been completed which showed the property
as depicted on the new survey. Egan stated the surveyor is also the same on both surveys.
Hawn inquired whether there was further public comment regarding this application.
Egan stated Rick Hanson, 340 Big Island, had to leave the meeting, but requested that the vacation be
taken all the way to the edge of the road and up the adjacent road.
Hawn stated she has one reservation regarding this. Hawn stated there may come a time in the future
when some members of the general public would like to walk on Big Island, and if this easement is
vacated, they would no longer have that right. Hawn stated the Planning Commission should discuss
preserving the right of pedestrians to walk somewhere in this area.
Egan asked if public meant landowners in the area.
Hawn stated she means any person.
Egan stated the landowners in the area do not want members of the general public walking around Big
Island, noting some of the roads have been closed to prevent people from walking around their cabins in
the wintertime and summertime. Egan stated he is unsure what the intent of the platted roads were at
the time they were originally platted, but that the property owners would prefer that members of the
general public not walk through their properties on Big Island.
Hawn noted they are public roads, and if they are vacated, the general public would not be allowed to
access certain parts of Big Island.
Egan stated the public has not been able to use that road since approximately 1960, when the cabin was
originally built.
Hawn stated theoretically the public has the right to use that right-of-way. Hawn stated she would like
the Planning Commission to look at ways to preserve the public's right to walk in that area.
Egan stated there is a road located behind the cabin that touches every one of the lots, so there would
still be access available to the general public. Egan stated in his view those platted roads were not
designed to allow members of the general public access to every lot of the island but rather were
designed to allow the property owners the ability to travel around the island.
Hawn stated all public roads in Orono are open to the general public.
Egan stated since these are not developed roads and are difficult to recognize, he personally would not
be comfortable with the general public walking around Big Island.

(#02-2749 Thomas Egan, Continued)
Hawn stated at the current time they possibly are not easily recognizable by the general public, but the
question is whether they are taking away someone's right to have access to certain parts of the island in
the future.
Kluth commented if the right-of-way is vacated, it would no longer be public land.
Egan stated vacation of this right-of-way would not affect access to any of the individual lots.
Rahn stated the reality is that the Applicant's situation will probably not change whether the road is
vacated or not, but that the Planning Commission needs to look at whether they are denying access to
the general public if the vacation is approved.
Gaffron suggested in exchange for this vacation that the City request a strip ofland to the lake. Gaffron
noted the road corridor stops 20 feet from the lakeshore, and that this might be an ideal place to request
a dedication of land to the shoreline.
Egan stated he does not own that piece of land, and that is it his understanding that piece of land is tied
up in a lease.
Gaffron commented this area of land might have been intended as a swimming beach at the time it was
platted.
Hawn reiterated that the Planning Commission has to insure that the general public has access to
Big Island.
Egan stated in his view there might be a problem with granting that piece of land to the shoreline, and
that the public can use Lakeview A venue. Egan stated he is unable to obtain a mortgage on this cabin
because it is located in the right-of-way, and that in his view it would not be a problem for the City to
vacate that right-of-way, noting that it is usable at this point for a road or a pedestrian trail. Egan stated
the road has not been utilized for a significant number of years.
Kluth recommended that this right-of-way not be vacated since they are unable to know what future use
this piece ofland might be needed for and that the City needs to preserve the right to use that piece of
land.
Hawn stated she would be in favor of vacating the right-of-way if an alternative is provided.
Egan commented the general public can still access Lakeview, which is a used pathway and does
contain utility lines. Egan stated Lakeview also has vehicular traffic. Egan commented these are
seasonal cabins and that most of the platted roads on Big Island are unrecognizable by the general
public.
Hawn stated the Planning Commission needs to protect access on Big Island for use in the future.
Kluth agreed with Hawn.

(#02-2749 Thomas Egan, Continued)
Egan stated the current situation is the fact that the City through the years has allowed structures to be
built in the right-of-ways, which prevents him from being able to obtain a mortgage today.
Hawn stated she would like to see a pedestrian walkway somewhere in this area.
Mabusth suggested this application be tabled to allow the Park Commission time to review Big Island
for possible trail use.
Hawn agreed that the Park Commission should review this application. .
Kluth commented that there is a value to this land that the City should recognize, and that it is the
Planning Commission's duty to make decisions based on what is good for the public.
Egan stated he understands that but does not feel vacation of this portion of right-of-way would affect
the general public.
Mabusth stated in her view perhaps this should become a policy of the City that the Park Commission
reviews any vacation ofland to determine ifthere is some public purpose for the land.
Egan indicated he would not be in favor of this going to the Park Commission. Egan stated legally he
cannot get clean title until the right-of-way is vacated, and he would like to proceed forward to the
Council.
Hawn stated in her view it appears this application may be denied by the Planning Commission, and
inquired whether Egan would like to have his application tabled or proceed before the Council.
Egan stated he would like the Planning Commission to act on this application. Egan stated he is unsure
what benefit would be gained by sending this application to the Park Commission.
Hawn moved, Kluth seconded, to recommend denial of Application #02-2749, Thomas P. Egan,
350, 360, and 370 Big Island, vacation of a portion of platted "Massasoit A venue", without further
input from the Park Commission on possible trail use. VOTE: Ayes 5, Nays 1, Mabusth opposed.
Mabusth indicated she would prefer the City follow a procedure of having the Park Commission review
applications requesting vacation of public land. Mabusth recommended the Council send this
application to the Park Commission.
Kluth moved, Hawn seconded, to recommend that all vacations of platted public roads be sent to
the Park Commission for their review as well as the Planning Commission.
VOTE: Ayes 6, Nays 0.

(#12) #02-2751 MARK WELCH, 3625 NORTH SHORE DRIVE, VARIANCES,
11:11 p.m. -11:29 p.m.
Linda Welch, Sister, appeared on behalf of Mark Welch.
The Certificate of Mailing and Affidavit of Publication were noted.
Weinberger stated the Applicant is requesting variances that would permit removal of an existing house
and construction of a new house on the property. Weinberger stated the property is located in the
LR-IC zoning district and consists of 6,615 square feet. Access to this property and five others is via a
private, shared driveway that accesses North Shore Drive. The private driveway is located across the
back of the individual lots. The driveway is required because the public road is located at a much higher
elevation than the properties below.
Weinberger stated the existing house consists of 599 square feet, with the Applicant proposing to
construct a two-bedroom/two bathroom home with a one-stall "tuck-under" garage. The new house
would allow the property owners to have additional living space and one garage stall. Currently the
property does not have a garage and was constructed in 1920. The proposed house would be located the
same distance from the driveway as the current house.
A number of variances are required for the new residence due to the small size of the lot, the driveway
location, and elevation change. The Applicant is requesting variances to lot area and lot width to permit
construction of a new residence. The defined lot area, minus the private driveway area, consists of
5,462 square feet. The defined lot width is approximately 50' at the lakeshore, with the requirement
being 100' width at the lakeshore.
Weinberger stated the proposed house would be located approximately 53' from the lakeshore, which
exceeds the existing setback of the neighboring two houses. Weinberger noted a 75' setback is required.
Weinberger stated the proposed building pad is located between the driveway and the 50' setback. The
Applicants are also requesting a variance to allow the house to be constructed five feet from the west
property line where a 10' setback is required. The 5' side setback has been requested to provide one
additional parking space on the property. The City's zoning code requires residential properties have
two off-street parking spaces. Weinberger noted no parking is available on the opposite side of the
shared driveway due to the topography of the land.
A variance is also needed to allow the house to be built within 7 5' of the lakeshore and a variance to
permit greater than 25 percent hardcover in the 75-250' of the lakeshore. The Applicants are proposing
16.4 percent hardcover where currently 17 .6 percent exists in the 0-75' setback area and 51.6 percent
hardcover in the 75-250' setback area where 54.4 percent currently exists. The proposed house would
consist of 1,176 square feet and would not contain a basement due to the high water level in this area.
Weinberger stated a variance is also required to permit one off-street parking stall to be located three
feet from an interior side property line where off-street parking is required to be located ten feet from a
side property line.
Weinberger noted the Applicant has submitted a statement of hardship. Weinberger stated the well
would need to be relocated if the house is rebuilt in this area.

Application: Property owners have requested to vacate of a portion of platted "Massasoit A venue".
Massasoit A venue is undeveloped right of way on Big Island originally dedicated on the plat of
Morse Island Park.
Right of way has been used by Big Island residents and guests for interior pedestrian access to parts
of the lakeshore and, periodically, for vehicular traffic for transporting materials for home
construction and septic installation. The right of way is also used by utility companies for electric
and phone service to the Island properties.
There are two houses either fully inside or partially inside the Massasoit A venue right of way that
is proposed for vacation. Attached Exhibit C is a survey document the indicates the location of the
right of way and structures.
The City notifies all public utilities of the vacation request since they reserve the right to use public
right of way for their facilities. Reliant Energy/Minnegasco responded that they have no facilities
in the right-of-way. Qwest did notify the City that they do have existing facilities within the right
of way and stated they respectfully decline the right of way vacation request. Please review the
attached letter, dated February 6, 2002, and maps provided by Qwest.

Lake and Interior Land Access
Individual access to public right of way is necessary to Big Island properties. The vacation of the
right of way does not eliminate public access to each lot because each lot has access to the lakeshore
and access to other right of way. The plat map shows each of the lots adjacent to other public land.
Access to public right of way for other lots on the island would not change.
According to information available to the City, property surveys and City topo maps, it does not
appear any part of Massasoit A venue or Metacomet A venue have direct public access to the
lakeshore.
Staff Recommendation
The property owners have the opportunity to negociate with Qwest to allow Qwest to use and access
their facilities. Staff cannot support vacation of the Massasoit A venue until Qwest and the property
owners reach an agreement on how to allow continued access to the telephone facilities. This could
be done by the property owners granting a public utility and access easement along the utility lines,
or provide a private easement for Qwest for the service lines.
The second option would be to have utilities relocated out of Massasoit A venue. Either option
would require all property owners and Qwest agreeing on a solution. Final approval of a vacation
could be considered by the City only after resolution of the issue.
Staff recommends the application be tabled until the issue with Qwest is resolved.
Any future redevelopment of the properties would require new structures to have a minimum setback
of75' to the lakeshore. The survey indicates nearly all of Massasoit Avenue, proposed for vacation,
is located within 7 5' of the lakeshore. Vacating the right of way will not allow further development
on those portions of the property.
Public Hearing Required
Staff did notice the hearing for the vacation request, for the February 19, 2002 meeting of the
Planning Commission. Notices were also mailed to all property owners within 350' of the property.
Staff requests the Planning Commission open a public hearing for public comment. If the request
is tabled the hearing will be continued to a future meeting.

Re: Big Island Petition
The property owners of 350, 360 and 370 Big Island have made an application to the City of Orono
requesting to vacate a portion of dedicated right of way.
I can either fax you a copy or send you a scanned image of a plat map that will highlight the area
proposed for vacation. The proposed vacation is a portion of platted "Massasoit Avenue" located near the
lakeshore at the end of the peninsula.
Please let me know how you would like to receive the information.
Thanks,

Mr. Weinberger, I was sent a copy of the agenda for next Tuesday's planning commission meeting. It
appears that Mr. Thomas P Egan is petitioning to city to vacate some land that apparently impacts my
property. I am on vacation in Palm Desert as I write this and therefore do not have access to any of the
property information that is in Minnesota.
I left a voice mail for you and am following up with an email as it might be easier to contact one another
this way rather than telephone tag. If you could enlighten me in any way on what is being petitioned for
and it's impact on my property, I'd appreciate it as I won't be back in Minnesota until Sunday night.
I plan to attend next Tuesday night's planning meeting, but I won't have any time to research what is going
on before I get to the meeting.
Thanks for your help, Richard (Rick) G Hanson

to be stored shall be as set forth in this section.
Subd. 2. Information required to be given individual. An individual asked to supply
private or confidential data concerning himself shall be informed of: (a) the purpose and
intended use of the requested data within the collecting state agency, political subdivision, or
statewide system; (b) whether he may refuse or is legally required to supply the requested data;
( c) any known consequence arising from his supplying or refusing to supply private or
confidential data; and ( d) the identity of other persons or entities authorized by state or federal

the individual income tax or property tax refund instructions instead of on those forms.
Subd. 3. Access to data by individual. Upon request to a responsible authority, an
individual shall be informed whether he is the subject of stored data on individuals, and
whether it is classified as public, private or confidential. Upon his further request, an
individual who is the subject of stored private or public data on individuals shall be shown the
data without any charge to him and, if he desires, shall be informed of the content and
meaning of that data. After an individual has been shown the private data and informed of
its meaning, the data need not be disclosed to him for six months thereafter unless a dispute
or action pursuant to this section is pending or additional data on the individual has been
collected or created. The responsible authority shall provide copies of the private or public

pursuant to this subdivision, or within five days of the date of the request, excluding Saturdays,
Sundays and legal holidays, if immediate compliance is not possible. If he cannot comply with
the request within that time, he shall so inform the individual, and may have an additional five
days within which to comply with the request, excluding Saturdays, Sundays and legal
holidays.
Subd. 4. Procedure when data is not accurate or complete. An individual may
contest the accuracy or completeness of public or private data concerning himself To exercise
this right, an individual shall notify in writing the responsible authority describing the nature
of the disagreement. The responsible authority shall within 30 days either: (a) correct the data
found to be inaccurate or incomplete and attempt to notify past recipients of inaccurate or
incomplete data, including recipients named by the individual; or (b) notify the individual that
he believes the data to be correct. Data in dispute shall be disclosed only if the individual's
statement of disagreement is included with the disclosed data.
The determination of the responsible authority may be appealed pursuant to the
provisions of the administrative procedure act relating to contested cases.
