Practical Difficulties Responses
1. "The property owner proposes to use the properly in a reasonable manner
not permitted by the Zoning Chapter"
The property is a single family residence, use of the property will not
change from it's current farm
2. "The plight of the landowner is due to circumstances unique to his/her
property not created by the landowner"
The current location of the property is on Big Island, and the contour of the
land is such that any other appropriate spot for the ancillary structure
would then become more visible from the lake, which we are trying to
avoid. The goal is to minimize the visual impact of the ancillary structure
from the lake, thus making the island more rustic as is the current status.
3. "The variance, if granted, will not alter the essential character of the
locality"
If granted the variance will enhance the character of the property. The
more collected the structures are the more rustic the island remains.
4. "Economic consideration alone do not constitute practical difficulties if
reasonable use of the property existing under the terms of the Zoning
Chapter"
There is no financial gain by this request. Financial concerns do not have
any impact on this request. It is solely for environmental and safety
reasons.
5. "Practical difficulties include, but are not limited to, inadequate access to
direct sunlight for solar energy systems. Variance shall be granted for
earth sheltered construction as defined in Minnesota Statutes, Section
116J.06 Subd. 2, when in harmony with this Chapter.
No applicable
6. "The Board of Appleals 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 property will be used as directed if this variance is granted

7 "The Board or Council may permit as a variance the temporary use of a
single-family dwelling as a two-family dwelling"
The proposed/existing will only be used as a single-family dwelling.
8. "The special conditions applying to the structure or land in question are
peculiar to such property or immediate adjoining property"
The adjoining properties are not visible and will not be affected
9. "The conditions do not apply generally to other land or structures in the
district in which said land is located"
NA
10. "The granting of the application is necessary for the preservation and
enjoyment of a substantial property right of the applicant"
Yes, by grouping the structures we are preserving the natural beauty of
the land.
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"
There will be no adverse affect
12."The granting of such variance will not merely serve as a convenience to
the applicant, but is necessary to alleviate demonstrable difficulty"
Without creating a visual affect from the lake there is no other location
applicable.
