Mrs. Bennett stated they were mislead by the former owners and were not · informed about the resolutions. Mayor Jabbour stated he was sympathetic to the Bennetts' problem, and the City is taking steps to ensure that all resolutions in the future will be attached to the title to the property . Peterson inquired whether the City Council would be agreeable to allowing them to construct the garage without the additional lot. Weinberger stated this addition would increase structural coverage to 2,011.67 square feet or 31 percent where 1500 square feet is allowed. · Mayor Jabbour remarked the Applicant has the right to appear before the City Council and request a garage without the additional land . Weinberger noted the Planning Commission was uncomfortable approving this application without the additional land. Goetten moved, Flint moved, to adopt RESOLUTION NO. 4178 approving Application #2413, 500 Hanlon Avenue, granting of variances from side yard adjacent to street setback, rear yard setback, and side yard setback to allow a two car garage with second floor living space to be attached to the existing residence subject to the property owners acquiring the tax forfeit Lot (#24) and joining the lot with Lot (#1) to meet the intent of the Council to limit the structural coverage on the lot.

VOTE: Ayes 4, Nays 0. (#7) #2422 RICHARD GAY, 2735 SHADYWOOD ROAD, VARIANCE Richard Gay was present. Weinberger stated the Applicant is proposing to construct a six foot fence to exceed the maximum 3 1/2 height withi~ the average lakeshore setback to contain his two dogs. The lot has unique topography and contains lots of natural vegetation. The proposed fence would be visible to the adjacent property as it would be located on the property line between the house and the lake. The Planning Commission has determined the desire to keep the dogs on this property is not a hardship and has recommended denial of the application. Gay stated he has recently purchased the property and was unaware of the height restriction on the fence until a couple of weeks ago. Gay commented he has owned the dogs for three years and would like to erect a fence to house the animals as well as provide an access into the house. Gar stated the adjoining neighbor is not opposed to the fence. Gay remarked the property is unique in that there is a steep hill in the back and the lot has only one suitable area for a fenced in area. Gay stated he would be willing to reduce the height of the fence to five feet and plant additional vegetation to screen the fence. Gay stated the fence would actually appear to be 3 1/2 feet to the adjoining residence since his property is 18 to 20 inches below the neighboring lot. Mayor Jabbour inquired whether the Applicant could submit a new application with a revised location for the fence. Van Zomeren stated the Planning Commission is having a work session on Friday and a new application could be discussed at that time. Gay stated he could plant a row of arborvitae along the property line in lieu of a fence, which may be less desirable. Goetten inquired whether the Applicant has considered invisible fencing for these dogs. Gay stated since the dogs are rather large, the fencing would not be a viable option. Peterson remarked that if this application is approved, it might set a dangerous precedent.

Mayor Jabbour stated he be! ieved it was not the intention of the Council to make Mr. Otten change his screening, have a development agreement, and post a bond. Gaffron stated the wording for item #5 came from staff to enable Mr. Otten to go ahead with the proposed construction absent a plan for additional screening. · Kelley asked if Mr. Otten has complied with the original screening site plan. Gaffron replied that he believes Mr. Otten to be in compliance with the original screening site plan . Kelley questioned the height restriction and if staff has arrived at how many feet is allowed. Gaffron stated he needs to review the plans with the building inspector before the document is finalized. Gaffron stated the canopy existing is less than 18'. Peterson asked if there are other properties in the City which has have undergone an intensification of the property where the City has required more screening around the building. Kelley replied Rick's Super Yalu's loading dock on the west side of the property. Moved by Kelley, seconded by Peterson, t~ approve Amendment Number 1 to Planned Unit Development No. 1 Agreement for East Willow Woods excluding item #5 (additional screening). VOTE: Ayes 5, Nays 0. (#5) #2418 ROBERT LUND ON BEHALF OF GRAYDON AND MICHELLE NEWMAN, 1655 BORN'S POINT ROAD -VARIAN CE Robert Lund was present on behalf of Graydon and Michelle Newman. Weinberger stated he was directed by the City Council at the September 26 meeting to draft a denial resolution . Weinberger reported the Council approved a site plari for a new residence with a gazebo and walkway at 26 .7% hardcover in 1997. Staff approved a revised plan on July 15, 1998 that removed the gazebo from the side yard and a small tower from the lakeside of the residence . The applicant has requested variances from the average lakeshore setback and hardcover to allow a swimming pool and a 30' tower addition to be added to the staff approved plan. The residence is currently under construction. A three story tower is being proposed. The first floor would be a gazebo, with office- Page 3 ORONO CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES FOR OCTOBER 12, 1998 (#5) #2418 ROBERT LUND, 1655 BORN'S POINT ROAD -CONTINUED space on the second floor, _and an observation deck above that. The proposed tower protrudes higher than the existing structure, therefore, the average lakeshore setback variance is required. Mayor Jabbour commented that it looks as if the house has been moved further away from the lake. Lund stated the house is about 500 square feet smaller than the original plan approved by Council. Weinberger stated the current proposal shows the gazebo as originally approved in 1997. The gazebo was removed before the building permit was issued. The property owners have proposed to construct a swimming pool on the west end of the property where the storms have knocked down trees in the same location as the gazebo was originally approved. Weinberger added that the turning radius of the driveway was reviewed by staff, and it was determined that the amount of driveway proposed is adequate to tum any passenger vehicle or passenger truck. Moved by Peterson, seconded by Mayor Jabbour, to reconsidered application #2418. VOTE: Ayes 5, Nays 0. Mayor Jabbour found the additional height on the building objectionable. Goetten asked to review the original hardcover approved verses what is being proposed with the current changes. Weinberger reported the current proposed square footage for the house and attached garage is 5,922 s.f. The original amount approved by the Council for the house and garage is 6,484 s.f. Moved by Kelley, seconded by Goetten, to continue this matter until later in the meeting to enable staff time to gather hardcover information. Weinberger reported back to Council a breakdown of the hardcover for each of the proposed and previously existing conditions on the properties. The total amount of hardcover Lund has requested is 11,605 s.f (26.7%). The Council previously approved 11,603.5 s.f. (26.7%). Peterson questioned the 30' high tower and what the structure is located on the north side of the house. Lund replied that it is a light tower that allows light in to that side of the house with no access to it. Mayor Jabbour opposed the 30' high tower from the lake view. Page4 ORONO CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES FOR OCTOBER 12, 1998 (#5) #2418 ROBERT LUND, 1655 BOHN'S POINT ROAD -CONTINUED Kelley questioned building a house with 6,000 s .f . plus a swimming pool on property located on Lake Minnetonka, with no plans for decks or patios. Kelley was concerned about future proposals to add hardcover for a deck or patio. Lund stated the original home had a small terrace on the lakeside which the Newmans did not use much . The proposed house is designed so that the first floor is 6" above grade. This design is to give you the feeling that you are outside when you are actually inside . They will have a covered deck on the northwest end of the house, from the breakfast room to the gables . Mayor Jabbour voiced concern to Lund that in the future the applicants may be back asking for additional variances for a deck/patio/terracing. Mayor Jabbour felt that a percentage of hardcover should be set aside for additional terracing/decking/patio for future use. Flint expressed concern over the 30' high tower. Flint felt it would look too massive from the lake. Flint stated he would not favor this application with this tower. Lund asked Council for a consensus as to what they would be looking for . Moved by Peterson, seconded by Goetten, to . approve application #2418 removing the gazebo/walkway, adding the pool, the tower to be no higher than the highest point on the south garage side of the home, and to allow hardcover in the 75-250' setback to be 11,605 s.f. (26.7%). Mayor Jabbour asked that the resolution note that Council is concerned with the lack of patios/decking, that and the applicant recognizes this concern, and that the applicant requested Council to approve the application as proposed and acknowledge that he or she may not have the right to add a patio/decking in the future. · (#6) #2420 ROBERT RYAN, JR., 3535 CHRISTINE DRIVE -VARIAN CE -RESOLUTION NO. 4171 The Applicants were not present. Moved by Kelley, seconded by Peterson, to adopt Resolution No. 4171 denying Application #24i0, 3535 Christine Drive. VOTE: Ayes 5, Nays 0. Page 5 ORONO CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES FOR OCTOBER 12, 1998 (#7) TONKA WA SHORES PRIVATE ROAD STANDARDS REVIEW Dan Regan, 3410 North Shore Drive, was present. Allan Stein on behalf of Kenneth Stein of 3400 North Shore Drive was present. Gaffron reported to Council that on September 25, Dan Regan came before Council requesting a primary driveway access to the new road which is going to be constructed for the Tonkawa Shores subdivision being done by James Render. Staff had denied the request based upon the fact that this would be a second access for Regan's property, and he already has one access on North Shore Drive. The road which is being proposed by Render has been approved at a substandard width in a substandard size outlot as a private road to serve three users, and now this is a fourth. Gaffron stated that Council heard from Dan Regan at their September 25 meeting and suggested Regan and James Render devise a proposal for increasing the width of Render's road to accommodate a fourth user, recognizing that the road plan as approved appears to limit Regan's (and his neighbors') ability to continue their occasional use of the old 16' easement. Council also suggested the neighborhood be notified of this request. Gaffron stated the neighborhood was notified. Gaffron noted the existing 16' easement is in question as to who owns it and if it is a public or private easement. Gaffron also noted the existing 20' sewer line easement to the south of the 16' easement is an encroachment into the neighboring properties to the south. Gaffron reported the initial approved proposal is a 16' driveway to serve the three newly developed lots. Gaffron stated that Regan and Render are proposing to construct a 20' road instead of a 16' road, to serve four lots with a potential of up to six users. Mayor Jabbour questioned the cost for the project. Gaffron replied that Regan indicated would accept the additional cost of widening Render's road from 16' to 20', including engineering design, grading, paving, and drainage. Regan would also be responsible for a shared 25% of future maintenance cost. It was also suggested that the covenants be revised such that any additional adjoining property owner who potential would be served by this road (3400 & 3420 North Shore Drive) could come in only after having approval by a majority of all property owners bound by the declaration, and must agree to join the declaration. Regan stated that his title does not show a 16' easement to the City but rather a 16' private easement, and the County easement for County Road 51 along the front of his property, and a 20' easement to the City for sanitary sewer. Barrett stated in his opinion the plat for "Tonkawa Shores" should not be filed until the issue with the easement is resolved. Also, the attorney for Mr. Render should be put on notice and the matter resolved quickly.

The applicant also intended to receive a hardcover variance to allow 11,605 s.f. of coverage in the 75-250' lakeshore setback. Mr. Lund will be present at the October 12, 1998 City Council meeting to request clarification of the action taken on September 28, 1998 to deny his request on behalf of Graydon and Michelle Newman. He has submitted several exhibits that are attached to this memo for discussion on Monday night. Lot History: 1. A residence existed on the lot at the time the City Council granted a hardcover variance on July 28, 1997 (DWG-1). The City Council granted a variance for hardcover to not exceed 11,603.5 s.f. (26.7%) meeting the conditions that were legally existing on the property prior to removal of the proposed residence. 2. The City Council granted variances on July 28, 1997 to allow the residence to encroach into the average lakeshore setback, and to allow 11,606 s.f. (26.7%) of hardcover in the 75-250' lakeshore setback where 10,850 s.f. (25%) is allowed and 11,606 s.f. (26. 7%) existed at the time of application. Approval was in accordance with the survey and site plan submitted with Zoning Application #2265 on file with the City of Orono Department of Building and Zoning, dated February 12, 1996 (DWG-2). 3. City Staff approved a site plan change to allow a smaller footprint to be located farther from the lakeshore and issued a building permit on July 15, 1998. Staff determined that the revised plan met the intent of the City Council approval. The new house plan removed a smaller tower structure, and a gazebo with outdoor walkway. The home location was turned slightly to face the lake more directly (Building Permit Approval -Plan A). 5. The request considered at the September 28, 1998 meeting would include adding the tower that was removed from the plan at the time the building permit was issued and adding a swimming pool that would require hardcover and average lakeshore setback variances (DWG-3). The applicants are allowed the hardcover granted by variance on July 28, 1997 (amended 7/15/98) to allow the building envelope and site plan previously approved because a building permit was issued before the variances expired. The building permit is valid until July 15, 1999. Application: The applicants had proposed to construct an addition to the residence with a pool terrace on the property meeting all yard requirements. The house would be located 91' from the lakeshore, encroaching 88' into the average lakeshore setback. The edge of the pool terrace would be located 114' from the lakeshore, encroaching 44' into the average lakeshore setback. A variance is required from the average lakeshore setback to allow for these structures. The property is located on a point causing the average lakeshore setback distance to be pushed back on the lot. This application required the following variances: 1. Average Lakeshore Setback. The house would encroach 88' into the Average Lakeshore Setback and the pool terrace would encroach 44' into the Average Lakeshore Setback. 2. Hardcover within the 75-250' lakeshore setback. Last year the applicant received a variance to allow 26. 7% hardcover. They have presented a revised plan with the same amount of hardcover that was approved last year. They also plan to remove a play house that is located within a required side yard setback. COUNCIL ACTION REQUESTED: To approve or amend the enclosed denial resolution. ATTACHMENTS A.

This application was reviewed as Zoning File #2418. 2. The property is located in the LR-lB, One Family Lakeshore Residential Zoning District. 3. The City Council granted variances on July 28, 1997 to allow the residence to encroach into the average lakeshore setback, and to allow 11,606 s.f. (26. 7%) of hardcover in the 75-250' lakeshore setback where 10,850 s.f. (25%) is allowed and 11,606 s.f. (26. 7%) existed at the time of application. Approval was in accordance with the survey and site plan submitted with Zoning Application #2265 on file with the City of Orono Department of Building and Zoning, dated February 12, 1996. 4. A residence existed on the lot at the time the City Council granted a hardcover variance on July 28, 1997. The City Council granted a variance for hardcover to not exceed 11,603.5 s.f. (26.7%) meeting the conditions that were legally existing on the property prior to removal of the proposed residence. 5. City Staff approved a site plan change to allow a smaller footprint to be located farther from the lakeshore and issued a building permit on July 15, 1998. Staff determined that the revised plan met the intent of the City Council approval. · 6. The City Council finds that the conditions existing on this property have changed since the original house has been removed. The approval to allow 26.7% hardcover was granted due to 26.7% hardcover existing on the property at the time of application. The conditions that existed at the time the hardcover variances were granted have changed. Subsiquently, the home has been removed and the new foundation and a portion of the first level of the new residence are complete. The request for additional hardcover on August 19, 1998 occurred following the removal of the preexisting house. 7. The applicants are allowed the hardcover granted by variance on July 28, 1997 ( amended 7 /15/98) to allow the building envelope and site plan previously approved because a building permit was issued before the variances expired. The building permit is valid until July 15, 1999. Page 2 of 4 8.

Mayor Jabbour stated the City Council usually does not get involved in structural issues but defers those matters to the building inspector. Otteson stated he had a structural engineer review the foundation of the house and he has stated the present foundation is okay to build on, after underpinning along one wall. Mayor Jabbour suggested Mr. Otteson contact the building inspector and work that matter out between the two of them. Moorse stated the building inspector preferred that a new foundation be built. Mayor Jabbour stated the issue before the City Council tonight is if we had understood that this house would be tom down to the foundation would we still have approved these variances. Otteson stated the intent of the project remains the same in his view and he is merely trying to meet current standard constmction practices. Otteson stated they felt they were in a gray area as to what they were allowed to do under the application. Otteson remarked the building inspector has stated the joists are not adequate to build on and need to be replaced which was not kno\\n until some sheetrock was removed from the wall. Kelley commented it is usually hard to predict what will need to be replaced until the project is underway, noting he is in favor of the project going forward. Kelley stated if the foundation needs to be replaced based upon the opinion of the building inspector, then the application should be reviewed. Goetten stated the safety of the occupants needs to be taken into consideration. Mayor Jabbour commented minor repair of the foundation is okay. Van Zomeren stated the Applicants are planning to have the foundation certified and are attempting to comply with the City's requirements. Goetten moved, Peterson seconded, to approve #2368, 710 North Arm Drive, allowing construction to continue as originally approved subject to certification by a structural engineer that the foundation can be built upon.

Kelley stated he is not opposed to the application, but has concerns about the other property owner wanting to build a shed on the property in the future. Kelley stated the neighbor should be allowed to construct a similar shed on the property if he so desires.

Weinberger stated the Planning Commission has recommended approval of this application which calls for a variance to the average lakeshore setback and a variance to the hardcover within the 75'-250' lakeshore setback. Goetten inquired whether the residence was existing at the time the 26.7 percent hardcover was, approved. Weinberger stated the house was not tom down at that time. Goetten commented when a residence is tom down and a new residence constructed, it is the policy of the City Council to have the new residence conform to the 25 percent hardcover limit. Goetten inquired whether the guest house still exists. Hoff replied that the guest house still exists. Weinberger stated there is no conditional use permit for the guest house. Hoff stated the variance to the hardcover has already been granted and the Applicants are requesting to revise their plan. Mayor Jabbour stated the house was removed in October, 1997. Kelley stated he agreed with Mayor Jabbour and Goetten in their view that hardcover should be limited to 25 percent on the new residence. Kelley inquired why the guest house was not included in the application when the Applicants applied for a building permit to construct a new residence. Weinberger indicated the guest house is an existing structure. Goetten inquired whether the proposed driveway will be adequate.

(#13) ZONING CODE AMENDMENT -PLUMBING IN ACCESSORY STRUCTURES Kelley inquired why the City Council was wishing to change the zoning code. McMillan, Planning Commission Representative, stated the Planning Commission has been working on this issue in an attempt to give City Staff some direction on how to deal with these applications. Moorse commented City Staff had requested some guidelines on how to regulate plumbing fixtures in accessory structures. Gaffron stated City Staff wanted direction on how to deal with applications requesting the installation of plumbing fixtures in accessory buildings. Gaffron stated this amendment allows City Staff to issue permits without restrictions for certain items, issue permits subject to specific restrictions or covenants for others, and to seek City Council approval whenever a conditional use permit is required. Mayor Jabbour inquired whether it is the City Council's intent to allow accessory structures with plumbing. Daniel Kluth, 2801 Fox Street, commented he understands the City Council's desire to regulate these type of structures. Mayor Jabbour stated this amendment would allow those non-confom1ing legal accessory structures that have had the plumbing removed previously to re-install the plumbing. McMillan stated overall accessory structures pose a problem to the Planning Commission and City Staff and guidelines need to be established for the City to follow. Page 10 CITY OF ORONO P.O.

McMillan stated there were hardships that exist for this property. Lindquist stated he has a problem with increasing structural coverage on this property. Chair Smith commented the Planning Commission was attempting to find ways to reduce structural coverage. Bennett stated structural coverage was being increased by 450 square feet, noting the deck could be reduced somewhat. Chair Smith inquired whether the deck and kitchen could be reduced. Stoddard noted this is a substandard lot comprising of .15 acres, and recommended pursuing purchase of the tax forfeited piece of property. Stoddard stated he typically looks favorably upon applications for garages but would like to see hardcover reduced somewhat. . McMillan remarked the Applicant could consider construction of a one-car garage as an option. Schroeder stated he would be in favor of this application if the two lots were combined. Chair Smith recommended the application be tabled. Schroeder stated it is not the Planning Commission's suggestion that you purchase the property but merely to look into the possible purchase. Stoddard concurred. Bennett agreed to tabling the application. Smith moved, Lindquist seconded, to table Application #2413, 500 Hanlon Avenue, to allow the Applicant time to submit revised plans.

(#7) TERRY SANDERS ON BEHALF OF KEVIN KENNEFICK, 3241 CASCO CIRCLE - CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT AND VARIANCES, 7:56 p.m. -8:07 p.m. The Certificate of Mailing and Affidavit of Publication were noted. Kevin Kennefick and Terry Sanders were present. Weinberger stated the applicants are applying for an after-the-fact variance and an after-the-fact conditional use permit to allow the replacement of a deck on the lakeshore side of the home and land alteration within 75' of the lakeshore for landscaping and rock. The applicants have constructed a new deck in the same location as the previous deck with a changed footprint. The newly constructed deck requires a variance from the allowed hardcover in the 75-250' lakeshore setback. The hardcover is being reduced from 42.5 percent to 39.8 percent. Weinberger stated the Applicants have also done some landscaping work which involved installing boulder outcroppings on a steep hill towards the lakeshore to alleviate the dangerous situation with attempting to mow the steep hill. Page 7 ORONO PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING MINUTES FOR SEPTEMBER 21, 1998 (#2418 Robert Lund on behalf of Graydon and Michelle Newman, continued) Lund noted there was a typographical error on page two of the Planner's Report. Weinberger stated it should read within the 75-250' lakeshore setb.ack. Stoddard moved, Schroeder seconded, to approve Application #2418, 1655 Bohn's Point Road, granting of a variance from average lakeshore setback requirements and a variance from the hardcover requirements as outlined in the August 10, 1998 Planner's Report.

Robert Lund on behalf of the Hoefts was present. Weinberger stated the Applicants are proposing to construct a new residence on the property meeting all yard requirements. A variance is required from the average lakeshore setback requirements. Staff recommends approval of the application due to a hardship since the property is located on a pennisula. Chair Smith inquired whether terrace implied a roof or above-ground structure. Lund commented the pool terrace is located several feet below the first floor of the residence, noting the primary reason for the variance is to avoid putting the house on the hill to blend in with the neighboring properties. Lindquist stated he has no problem with the application. McMillan concurred. There were no public comments. Stoddard inquired of the history of the previous residence. Weinberger stated the old residence was razed last year. Lindquist moved, McMillan seconded, to approve Application #2419, 1725 Bohn's Point Road, granting of a variance to the average lakeshore setback. VOTE: Ayes 6, Nays 0. (#10) #2420 ROBERT RYAN JR., 3535 CHRISTINE DRIVE -VARIANCE, 8:18 p.m. -8:43 p.m. The Certificate of Mailing and Affidavit of Publication were noted. Mr. and Mrs. Ryan, Jr., was present. Weinberger stated the Applicant is proposing to construct a 90 foot wind tower as an additional source for electricity to serve his property due to periodic NSP power outages, sometimes days at a time. Weinberger remarked the Applicant has experienced ten power outages since July, 1997. Page 9 ORONO PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING MINUTES FOR SEPTEMBER 21, 1998 (#2420 Robert Ryan, Jr., continued) This property lies within the RR-1 B zoning district, and is comprised of 1.62 acres. The neighborhood is developed as a residential cul-de-sc neighborhood of lots approximately two acres in size. The neighborhood also has a covenant in place restricting any out buildings or structures from being built without approval of an Architectural Review Committee established in the covenant. The Applicant is proposing to locate the tower closer than 90 feet to the lot lines, which may pose a potential public safety issue and would be visible to the neighbors as well. The Zoning Code does not allow structures to exceed 30 feet in height, which would require a height variance from the 30 feet maximum allowed. Staff recommends denial of the application. Mr. Ryan stated they are unsure at this time of the exact height of the tower, noting the tower needs to clear the trees to order to be effective. Ryan commented that neighboring properties have CB towers, which average 60 feet, and this wind tower should pose no hazard to the neighbors as it is recommended for home use and there are no structures nearby. Ryan also stated the committee outlined in the covenant has been non-existent for the past four years. Chair Smith noted a letter dated September 20, 1998, has been received from Susan Manikowski, a resident in the neighborhood, and presented a copy of the letter to the Applicants. Clem Kroll, 60 South Stubbs Bay Road, stated he currently owns nine acres which can be subdivided into four lots, and has concerns with the height, location, and reduction in property values should the tower be installed. Chair Smith inquired whether the committee was active in the neighborhood. Kroll stated the members of the committee were in attendance at tonight's meeting. Schroeder noted the problem lies with NSP and the tower should not be allowed at the expense of the neighbors. McMillan stated the wind tower is not allowed under Orono's Codes. Schroeder suggested the Applicant purchase a portable generator to help solve the outage problems. Ryan stated he has a portable generator, which has not resolved the outage problem, and expressed concerns over possible outages due to the year 2000 problem. Susan Manikowski, 3505 Christine Drive, stated they moved to this quiet neighborhood about three and a half years ago and would like to keep the area rural as much as possible. Manikowski raised concerns about the wildlife, lightning strikes, noise from the generator, and the possible danger to the neighboring properties should the tower fall. Manikowski requested the Planning Commission deny the request. Ryan stated he has spoken with the Homeowners Association and said he would be willing to put the wind tower in temporarily until after the power outage problem is resolved. Ryan commented he felt the City will be having more requests of this nature in the future. Berg inquired why he felt that way. Ryan remarked that he doesn't feel NSP will be able to adequately supply electricity, especially Page 10 TO: Chair Smith and Orono Planning Commission Members Ron Moorse, City Administrator FROM: Paul Weinberger, Assistant Zoning Administrator DATE: August 16, 1998 SUBJECT: #2418 Robert Lund on behalf of Graydon and Michelle Newman 1655 Bohn's Point Road Variances--Public Hearing Zoning District: LR-lB One Family Rural Residential District (1 Acre) Lot Area: Irregular Application: The applicants have proposed to construct a new residence with a pool terrace on the property meeting all yard requirements. The house would be located 91' from the lakeshore, encroaching 88' into the average lakeshore setback. The edge of the pool terrace would be located 114' from the lakeshore, encroaching 44' into the average lakeshore setback. A variance is required from the average lakeshore setback requirement for these structures. The property is located on a point causing the average lakeshore setback distance to be pushed back on the lot. Last year the applicants received variances from the average lakeshore setback and hardcover to construct a new home. The applicants are requesting to maintain the 26.7% hardcover allowed in the 75-250' setback although the site plan has changed. They have downsized the driveway and have a new house footprint, also they have added a pool. This application requires the following variances: I. Average Lakeshore Setback. The house would encroach 88' into the Average Lakeshore Setback and the pool terrace would encroach 44' into the Average Lakeshore Setback. 2. Hardcover within the 75-250' lakeshore setback. Last year the applicant received a variance to allow 26.7% hardcover. They have presented a revised plan with the same amount of hardcover that was approved last year. They also plan to remove a play house that is located within a required side yard setback. Lot History: In July 1997 the City Council adopted Resolution No. 3939 allowing an Average Lakeshore Setback variance that would allow a new residence to be constructed on the lot. The proposed house would have been approximately 1 O' closer to the lake than the new plan. #2420 Robert C. Ryan Jr. 3535 Christine Drive Variance 9/21/98 Pagel The resolution also approved variances to allow hardcover of 12.3% in the 0-75' setback and a variance to allow 26.7% hardcover in the 75-250' setback. The applicants wish to maintain the 12.3% existing hardcover in the 0-75' setback to include a deck, walkway, retaining wall and stone block. Previous variances have been approved on October 9, 1995 (Resolution No. 3618) for the property to allow hardcover for concrete walks and retaining walls along the lakeshore. A conditional use permit was granted at that time to allow filling and grading to stabilize the lakeshore. The applicant does not intend to make any changes within the 0-75' lakeshore setback. Pertinent Ordinances: • Section 10.56, Subd. 16(C)(6): Average Lakeshore Setback • Section 10.22, Subd. l(B): Average Lakeshore Setback • Section 10.56, Subd. 16(L)(2): Hardcover Regulations • Section 10.22, Subd. 2: Hardcover Regulations #2419 Graydon and Michelle Newman 1655 Bohn's Point Road Variances 9/21/98 Page 2 ANALYSIS Lot Area and Yards LR-lB Lot Area Lot Width Lakeside Yard Side Yard Street Yard (1 acre) Required 43,560 s.f. 140' 75' 10' 35' The property does meet lot area and width requirements for the LR-lB zoning district. However, the house and pool structure would not meet the required Average Lakeshore Setback. The residence would encroach 88' and the pool terrace would encroach 44'.

The applicants have proposed to remove portions of the driveway and an accessory building located within a required side yard setback to add a gazebo to the lakeside of the home and a pool. A building permit has been issued and the foundation installed for the house. At the time of this report the main floor of the home construction has begun. The applicants have not applied for a building permit to construct the pool at this time. #2419 Graydon and Michelle Newman 1655 Bohn's Point Road Variances 9/21/98 Page3 Structural Coverage The lot does not exceed the allowed lot coverage of 15%. ANALYSIS Variance STATEMENT OF HARDSHIP The applicant's have included their statement of hardship in Exhibit B. The applicant should also be asked for their testimony regarding this issue. Criteria for Determining Undue Hardship 1. The property in question cannot be put to a reasonable use if used under conditions allowed by the official controls. The applicants have begun construction of the home as per the approved hardcover and average lakeshore setback. As a result of obtaining a building permit within one year of the variance approval they can utilize the 26.7% hardcover for the plan as presented in Zoning Application #2265. The new site plan would require an average lakeshore setback variance to allow the revised house plan and the pool. A hardcover variance would have to be approved to allow the construction of the pool. 2. The plight of the landowner is due to circumstances unique to his property not created by the landowner. The property's sight lines are not affected by placing the home closer to the lake than the Average Lakeshore Setback. The setback line is pushed back on the lot as a result of being located on a peninsula. The hardcover variance for the same amount of hardcover was approved last year, but the plan change to allow a pool would require another variance. It should be noted the lot is pie shaped limiting the land located within the 75-250' setback. 3. The variance, if granted, will not alter the essential character of the locality. #2419 Graydon and Michelle Newman 1655 Bohn's Point Road Variances 9/21/98 Page4 The variance would not change the locality. The property would be used as a single family residential lot with a swimming pool as a permitted accessory structure. 4. Economic considerations alone shall not constitute an undue hardship ifreasonable use for the property exists under the terms of this chapter. Economic factors are not a consideration with this application. 5. The Board of Appeals and Adjustments or the Council may not permit as a variance for any use that is not permitted under this Chapter for the property in the zone where the affected person's land is located. The use of the property would remain residential, which is consistent with the zoning. A swimming pool is allowed as an accessory structure in the zoning district. 6. The special conditions applying to the structure of land in question are peculiar to such property or immediately adjoining property. The lot is located on Bohn's Point. The properties do not entirely face the same direction. The subject property is located on a curve creating a lakeshore view to the southwest. The easterly property would have a lakeshore view to the south. The topography of the land and vegetation also creates a visual barrier between all affected lots. The applicant's lot is pie shaped resulting in the 75-250' setback not being representative for an average lot in the zoning district. 7. The conditions do not apply generally to other land or structures in the district in which said land is located. The lots are located on a point resulting in an Average Lakeshore Setback line being pushed towards the back of the applicant's property. 8. The granting of the application is necessary for the preservation and enjoyment of a substantial property right of the applicant. The applicants are exceeding the lakeshore setback by approximately 44'. The proposed location of the structure on the property was approved as part of the variances last year. The applicant is requesting trading approved hardcover from the driveway for a swimming pool. 9. The granting of the proposed variance will not in any way impair health, safety, #2419 Graydon and Michelle Newman 1655 Bo/m's Point Road Variances 9/21/98 Page 5 comfort, morals, or in any other respect be contrary to the intent of the Zoning Code. · The granting of variances would not be a public hazard or contrary to the intent of the Zoning Code. 10. The granting of such variance will not merely serve as a convenience to the applicant, but is necessary to alleviate demonstrable hardship or difficulty. The applicant's have demonstrated a hardship by the location of the lot on a point affecting the location of the Average Lakeshore Setback. It has also been demonstrated there would be minimal visual impact on the neighborhood. I . The applicants are requesting a variance from Average Lakeshore Setback requirements to allow a slight plan change to the residence and adding a swimming pool on the north side of the property. 2. The lots are not consistent in the direction they face the lake. 3. All lot requirements would be met by the proposal. 4. On July 28, 1997 the City Council issued a variance from allowed hardcover in the 75- 250' lakeshore setback to allow the construction of a new residence with additional driveway space. The new proposal would permit trading hardcover from the driveway for the swimming pool. 5. As a conditional of the approval for hardcover of26.7% in the 75-250' setback the applicants would remove a structure that encroaches into the side yard setback. 6. The property contains a small guest house that would remain on the property. STAFF RECOMMENDATION • Staff recommends approval of the variance from Average Lakeshore Setback requirements based on prior approvals for average lakeshore setback and to allow hardcover of 26. 7%. #2419 Graydon and Michelle Newman 1655 Bohn's Point Road Variances 9/21/98 Page 6 Attachments A Application B Statement of Hardship C Plat Map D Location Map E Survey/Site Plan F Hardcover Calculations G Approved Site Plan H Minutes from the 7 /28/97 City Council Meeting I Resolution No. 3939 J Property Owners List K Permit Record for 1655 Bohns Point Road L Resolution No. 3618 #2419 Graydon and Michelle Newman 1655 Balm's Point Road Variances 9/21/98 Page 7 ..

Variances were previously granted for hardcover and average lakeshore setback. 5. The City Council finds that the conditions existing on this property are peculiar to it and do not apply generally to other property in this zoning district; that granting the variance would not adversely affect traffic conditions, light, air nor pose a fire hazard or other danger to neighboring property; would not merely serve as a convenience to the applicants, but is necessary to alleviate a demonstrable hardship or difficulty; is necessary to preserve a substantial property right of the applicants; and would be in keeping with the spirit and intent of the Zoning Code and Comprehensive Plan of the City. 6.

The house would be located 91' from the lakeshore, encroaching 88' into the average lakeshore setback. The edge of the pool terrace would be located 114' from the lakeshore, encroaching 44' into the average lakeshore setback. A variance is required from the average lakeshore setback to allow for these structures. The property is located on a point causing the average lakeshore setback distance to be pushed back on the lot. Last year the applicants received variances from the average lakeshore setback and hardcover to construct a new home. The applicants are requesting to maintain the 26.7% hardcover allowed in the 75-250' setback although the site plan has changed slightly. They have downsized the driveway and have modified the house footprint, also they have added a pool. This application requires the following variances: 1. Average Lakeshore Setback. The house would encroach 88' into the Average Lakeshore Setback and the pool tenace would encroach 44' into the Average Lakeshore Setback. 2 . Hardcover within the 75-250' lakeshore setback. Last year the applicant received a variance to allow 26.7% hardcover. They have presented a revised plan with the same amount of hardcover that was approved last year. They also plan to remove a play house that is located within a required side yard setback.

NO"\.V, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of Orono, Minnesota: FINDINGS 1. This application was reviewed as Zoning File #2072. 2. Toe property is located in the LR-lB, Single Family Lak::eshore Residential Zoning District. 3. The Orono Planning Commission reviewed this application on September 18, 1995 and recommended approval of the proposed variances and conditional use permit based upon the following findings: Page 1 of 7 CITY of ORONO RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL N 3618 o. -------- A. The existing 604 s.f. deck platform located at the shoreline encroaches into the neighboring property and is proposed to be removed, resulting in significant decrease in hardcover near the lakeshore. The net decrease in 0-75' hardcover from 14.4% to 12.5% is a positive improvement to the property. · B. Applicant's dock similarly encroached the neighboring property line extended and is proposed to be moved to meet LMCD requirements, thereby creating an access point offset by approximately 30' from the existing concrete stairway which leads down the lakeshore bank and provides access to the shoreline for the applicant. C. Planning Commission finds that it is appropriate to allow a 4' walkway laterally along the shoreline to connect the new dock access point to the existing concrete stairway, thereby avoiding an additional cut into the lakeshore bank. D. The proposed addition of boulders adjacent to the existing retaining wall approximately 10-15' back from the shoreline is appropriate to provide additional support for the lakeshore bank, and the addition of 6-12" in height of riprap at the shoreline is appropriate to protect the shoreline. The proposed 12 11 depth of sand between the riprap and the retaining wall has been reviewed by the City Engineer who finds it acceptable from an engineering standpoint. The majority of the sand area is proposed to be revegetated with native grasses, leaving approximately a l0'x.20' area of sand exposed to provide a "beach" character. Planning Commission finds that leaving patio blocks in place underneath the sand layer may provide additional stability for the shoreline and therefore it is appropriate to leave the patio blocks in place. 4. The City Council has considered this application including the findings and recommendations of the Planning Commission, reports by City staff, comments by the applicants and the effect of the proposed variance on the health, safety and welfare of the community. · Page 2 of 7 CITY of ORONO RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL NO •. 13·H l 8 S. The City Council finds that the conditions existing on this property are peculiar to it and do not apply generally to other property in this zoning district; that granting the variances and conditional use permit would not .adversely affect traffic conditions, light, air nor pose a fire hazard or other danger to neighboring property; would not merely serve as a convenience to the applicants, but is necessary to alleviate a demonstrable hardship or difficulty; is necessary to preserve a substantial property right of the applicant; and would be in keeping with the spirit and intent of the Zoning Code and Comprehensive Plan of the City. CONCLUSIONS, ORDER AND CONDITIONS Based upon the above findings, the Orono City Council hereby grants variances to Municipal Zoning Code Section 10.22, Subdivisions 1 and 2, Section 10.55, Subdivision 8, and Section 10.56, Subdivision 16 (L) for the construction of a 4' wide walkway parallel to the shoreline for a distance of approximately 30' and within the 0-75' zone where no hardcover or structure is normally allowed, and a variance to Section 10.22, Subdivision 1, Section 10.55, Subdivision 8, and Section 10.56, Subdivision 16 (J) to allow filling and grading in the 0-75' lakeshore setback zone where such work normally is not allowed, and grants a conditional use permit per Section 10.03, Subdivision 19 for land alteration in the 0-75' lakeshore setback zone, subject to the following conditions: 1. The shoreline maintenance work including boulder wall improvement, riprap improvement and sand fill shall follow the plans submitted by the applicant's landscape designer. 2. The existing patio blocks shall be removed prior to placement of the sand layer. 3. The platform deck shall be removed as proposed. 4. The walkway constructed from the base of the existing concrete stairway to the new dock location shall not exceed a width of 4'. 5. Applicant is advised that hardcover in the 0-75' zone shall not exceed 12.3% per the sketch and listing attached to this resolution as'Exhibit B. Applicant is advised that any future proposal to add hardcover in the 0-75' zone will likely not be approved, but might be approved only in conjunction with the removal of equivalent or greater square footages of hardcover in that zone.

Authorities granted by this resolution run with the property not with the applicant, but are permissive only and must be exercised by application for a building permit within one year of the date of Council approval or the special conditions of this resolution will expire on that date (October 9, 1996). 7.

Box 66 Crystal Bay, MN 55323-0066 HARDCOVER ORDINANCE -In 1975, the Orono City Council adopted an ordinance limiting the percentage of lot area that can be covered with impervious .surface ("hardcover") such as roofs, driveways, sidewalks, etc. on properties located within 1,000 feet of a lake. Studies have shown that sediments, oils, and debris carried into the lake from highly urbanized areas have a detrimental impact on the quality of water in the lake. The intent of Orono's ordinance is to ensure that rainfall run-off will be cleansed by filtering through grassed or vegetated yard areas before entering the lake. Hardcover Zones -Allowed Percentages: 0-75 0% 75-250' 25% 250-500' 30% 500-1000' 35% Hardcover includes: -Roofs -Sidewalks -Paved or gravel driveways -Patios & decks (includes slatted decks) -Tops of retaining walls & rock walls -Decorative landscape areas underlain by plastic sheeting or fabric -Any other surface that does not allow direct absorption of rainfall into the ground INSTRUCTIONS FOR COMPLETING HARDCOVER CALCULATION WORKSHEET 1. Circle which setback zone (0-75', 75-250', etc.) the calculation is for. 2. For each item of hardcover within that zone, enter the length and width, and multiply to get square footage (s.f.). 3. Add up all the square footages to get total square footage of hardcover. 4. Divide by the total area of property within the zone and multiply by 100 to get percentage of hardcover in the zone. 5. If changes in hardcover are proposed, you should do a "before" worksheet and "after worksheet. If either results in percentages greater than those allowed, contact City staff before proceeding with your project planning! Telephone (612) 473-7357 • FAX 473-0510 12 Graydon K. and Michelle M.

Newman -Continued) the average lakeshore setback request. The adjacent residences are behind the proposed structure. The proposed structure would be more than 100' from the lakeshore. Goetten asked for more visual details of the property. The 12.3% hardcover in the 0-75' setback was clarified. Goetten had questioned whether the Planning Commission had discussed any removals in that area. Van Zomeren said there is currently 313 2 s.f. of hardcover in the 0-75' and is proposed at 3120 s.f. A deck platform was removed by the lakeshore to allow for approval of a prior variance request. Lund said there is 12' of terrace around the house that is being removed. Goetten noted that the packet did not include any information regarding what was included in the 12.5% of hardcover. Gaffron reported that the hardcover includes a deck, walkway, retaining wall and terrace area and stone block. Jabbour asked if it exists now. Gaffron said some was taken out and a different walkway installed. Lund said the walkway consists of broken up rubble. Jabbour noted the explanation why a seawall was required during the last discussion of the property. Jabbour said the existing structure includes riprap and a retaining wall. Gaffron said this was not an issue from Staffs viewpoint. Goetten moved, Peterson seconded, to adopt Resolution No. 3939. Vote: Ayes 5, Nays 0.
