KRETSCH, 3155 CASCO POINT ROAD, VARIAN CE, 6:48 P.M. -6:55 P.M.
The applicant was not present.
Oakden stated the applicant is requesting an average lakeshore setback variance for a new deck to
encroach 11 '6" into the setback. The applicant is currently constructing a new home on the property and
are proposing a new deck for the home. The new deck will be shorter than the previous deck and slightly
taller. The overall footprint of the new deck is less compared to the original deck. The existing deck
encroached into the average lakeshore setback by roughly 17 feet. The taller height of the deck is what
triggers the new encroachment. Because the new deck is not being built in the exact same location and is
higher than the existing deck, the non-conforming protections do not apply.
While the new deck will be slightly taller than the previous deck, it will have a smaller encroachment into
the average lakeshore setback. The applicant has worked to mitigate the encroachment by proposing a
deck that does not encroach as much compared to the previous deck. The deck will not interfere with the
sightlines of the neighbors.
Staff finds that there are demonstrable practical difficulties supporting the average lakeshore setback
variance request.
Oakden noted Staff received an email from an Orono resident who expressed concerns about the deck.
Planning Staff recommends approval of the variance.
Chair Thiesse opened the public hearing at 6:52 p.m.
There were no public comments relating to this application.
Chair Thiesse continued the public hearing to February 12.
Thiesse noted the two neighbors have submitted letters in support of the deck.
Landgraver stated it is being moved further away from the lakeshore and that they are reducing hardcover
in that area, he would be in favor of it.
Leskinen agreed the applicant is reducing the encroachment going out and that the deck does not appear
to be obstructing any views of the neighbors, which is the objective of the average lakeshore setback.
Leskinen stated since it is not obstructing any views, she would be in favor of it.
Lemke stated the glass railing is also less obtrusive than the current wood railing.
Landgraver asked why this was not caught at the time the application was submitted for the retaining
walls .

Oakden indicated th is is a different builder who is now constructing the home. Oakden stated the house
application was just received this month and the deck was noticed after the variance was granted for the
work to the shore.

app licant is requesting an average lakes hore setback variance. The applic t is
proposing to build addition to his two existing decks. One deck, located off of the mas r bedroom,
currently encroaches the average lakeshore setback by two feet. The addition would · crease the
encroachment to six fee . The other deck, located off of the living room, encroaches 6 feet. The living
room deck is being propos to have a 35-foot encroachment into the average lake ore setback.
The proposed deck addition wil dd seven feet on the living room deck, crea · g a 96.9-foot setback from
the lake. The master bedroom dee ill add 3 .75 feet to the existing deck, reating roughly a 1 OS-foot
setback from the lake. The deck will rginally interfere with the sight · es of the neighbors, meeting
the intent and purpose for the average la hore setback. The view o he most impacted neighbor to the

Michael Ha).: s, Applicant, stated this is not a large deck and would only be 14 feet out from the house.
