Unfortunately the Deck is within 75 feet of the lake where no structures are allowed. Therefore the City must require removal of the Deck or submission of a variance application to see if the City Council will allow it to remain. Please review the enclosed variance application and contact the Zoning Department to discuss submittals. If the deck is not removed or if a complete variance application is not received by 08/18/O1, legal action will be started. If you have any questions feel free to contact me at my office.

This letter is more to give you my understanding of the chronology of this so that we are in agreement on this. My boathouse deck was replaced in April of 2001. I did the wark myself. Cost and materials was approximately$900. I replaced the deck because it was rotting and I believed it to be a danger. The dimensions to the deck were not changed when I replaced it. The deck does have a railing that meets code. I failed to get a permit to replace the existing deck because quite frankly I did not think I needed to get a permit to replace an existing structure that did not change the dimensions. However, because of an inspection by someone in Orono they decided that I needed a permit to do this. In fact I did place an application for a retroactive perrnit in July of 2001. With this I sent a check, which was twice the cost because it was a retroactive permit. I also provided documents, sketches and photograph of the pre-existing deck. I did not hear anything about this until your letter of October 17, 2002. So, in summary, approximately 15 months went between my application for a retroactive permit with check included and this letter that I received from you on October 17. I know you are very busy with all the construction going on and that you are overworked with all the issues under your jurisdiction. I do not have to walk very far from my house to look at houses that are blotting out the sun that have been recently remodeled, so, my question would be, what happened? Again, my position in this matter is that I replaced a pre-existing deck with dimensions ai t'r�e pre-existing ailner�sions and iiie ueck was replaced because it was structurally unsouna. i dici th�work myself and the cost of material was $900. This has now taken 15 months to resolve for actually no change in my property. I would like this resolved at the soonest possible time. Sincerely, ��_..t��fz� S.

A Review of your street file shows the following chronology: 0 6-25-2001 Inspector Marc Davis leaves inspection notice stating a permit is required for deck replacement. 0 7-11-2001 Marc Davis sends letter requesting removal of the deck or contact Building Department. 0 7-12-2001 City received permit application—no check attached(Permit Fee is required when permit when permit is issued). 0 7-18-2001 Letter from me informing you that no structures are allowed within 75' of lake and a variance would be required to keep it. A variance application was included. 0 10-17-2002 Letter from me explaining the issue is unresolved. The City requires Building Permits for constructions of decks per Orono Municipal Code Section 12.02. The City does not allow structures within 75' of the lake per Orono Municipal Code Section 10.56 subd. C.

It has come to the attention of this department that a deck has been constructed onto an accessory structure near the lake. This letter is to notify you that the City of Orono prohibits structures within 75' of Lake Minnetonka. The existing building is grandfathered in and can stay until it needs structural repairs, then may be required to be removed. However, the newly constructed deck must be removed. The previous owner constructed a deck in the same location and applied for an after the fact variance. The variance was denied and the deck was removed. A deadline of March 1, 2005 has been established. If this deadline is not met, the City may initiate legal action. If you have any questions feel free to contact me at my office.

Given the current ice and snow cover, on and around the deck, removal at this time would be very difficult and hazardous. I will however, disassemble and remove the deck as soon as the weather permits, hopefully late March to April 2005. In the meantime, I will call back to set up a time for an on sight inspection and discussion of the variance that was voted on in October 2003. This variance recommended a 4' wide by T long 3' wide stairway to continue serving the existing patio door. Thank you for your patience in allowing me to wait for more favorable weather conditions.

VOTE: Ayes 5, Nays 0. (#5) #02-2858 SCOTT STANDA, 2659 CASCO POINT ROAD, VARIANCE, 6:13 - 6:43 P.M. Scott Standa, the Applicant, was present. Gaffron explained that the applicant was requesting after-the-fact hardcover and setback variances to allow the reconstruction of a rotten deck located at the shoreline attached to an existing accessory building. Variances required include: 1. Structure within 0-75' setback zone, extending out over the shoreline (cantilevered 2-3' past the OHWL). 2. Structure encroaching within 1 foot of side lot line. 3. Hardcover in 0-75'zone of 16.24% (no changes proposed). 4. Encroachment of average lakeshore setback Gaffron noted that the deck that was replaced was attached to a 12'x22' accessory building located 5' from the shoreline and nearly abutting the side lot line. The accessory building has been there for many years and has apparently been maintained in relatively good condition. Gaffron asked the Planning Commission to consider 5 key issues: 1. Would the Planning Commission have recommended approval for the replacement of this deck had the application been made before the fact? 2. Does Planning Commission agree with staff that the 1992 photo provided by applicant casts doubt as to whether this deck was 8' deep prior to its replacement? 3. The property has excessive hardcover in both the 0-75' and 75-250' zones. Is there any hardcover on the site that should be considered for removal if the application is approved? The surveyor identified 235 s.f. of landscape areas lined with plastic or fabric that are not included in the hardcover calculations and would be subj ect to removal if the application is approved. 4. Applicant paid the after-the-fact fee for the variance application. If the variance is approved, should an after-the-fact building permit fee be paid? Applicant claims he was unaware that he needed a permit to replace an existing deck on the property. Page 3 of 29 MINUTES OF THE . ORONO PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING Monday, October 20, 2003 6:00 o'clock p.m. � (#S) #02-2858 SCOTT STANDA, 2659 CASCO POINT ROAD, Continued 5. Does Planning Commission have any other issues or concerns with this application? Gaffron indicated that staff recommends denial of the application. In staff's opinion, if this reconstruction had been applied for before-the-fact, the encroachment over the shoreline and within 1 foot of the side lot line would have been questioned and likely not approved. He noted that the apparent expansion of the deck from a depth of 6' to 8' would certainly not have been approved. Gaffron maintained that, while the fact that the approval process has cost the property owner more than the project itself is unfortunate, but should not be a factor in determining whether the approval is granted after-the-fact. Maintenance and/or replacement of existing decks and lakeshore accessory structures is an on�oing issue along Orono's 40 miles of Lake Minnetonka shoreline. Gaffron stated that the Planning Commission may wish to consider whether the current policies and codes are appropriate, or whether they need to be relaxed or strengthened. If approval is granted, Plannin�Commission should address the excessive hardcover on the property and make a recommendation as to removals. An after the fact permit should be applied for so the building inspector can confirm the construction meets pertinent building codes. Chair Smith asked if staff had recommended to the applicant that he consider a lockbox. Gaffron indicated that the discussion had not pursued that far, since it was the applicant's intent to keep what he had. Mr. Standa volunteered to make additional removals of hardcover on the property, including the concrete slab behind the accessory structure, sidewalk along side of the home to the accessory building, and repair or removal of the crumbling lake access steps. Mabusth recommended the lake access steps be replaced for safety sake, since the lot is a steep lake lot. - Mr. Standa pointed out that the retaining walls would also be in need of repair in the near future. Hawn questioned the necessity of the fire pit and flagpole. Mr. Standa indicated that he would prefer to keep both his flabpole and fire pit; however, if it was mandated he could remove the fire pit. Page 4 of 29 , MINUTES OF THE ORONO PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING Monday, October 20, 2003 ' 6:00 o'clock p.m. (#S) #02-2858 SCOTT STANDA, 2659 CASCO POINT ROAD, Continued Mabusth questioned whether the LMCD would have an issue with the s�-ucture protruding over the water. Gaffron stated that the LMCD may want to look at it if the posts are at or belo«�the OHWL. If this application had come before the Commission before the fact, Mabusth asked the Commission what they would have allowed. She noted that she would have asked for the removal of the slab. Hawn questioned whether they would have approved a deck on an accessory structure, and an even bigger deck tfian previously attached to this nonconforming structure. She asked whether it was the Commission's intent to do away with these structures altogether. Hawn asked what record the City has of the previous deck size. While he felt that he probably would not have allowed it, Rahn stated that it was not out of character of what is currently in the neighborhood. Mr. Standa stated that the deck has always been on the structure. Gaffron agreed that, to everyone's knowledge, the deck had always been there. He noted that research could be done to find the original paperwork. Rahn maintained that the cantilevered portion was new, and asked the applicant consider a straight replacement, without the cantilever, and minimum landing. Mr. Standa stated that he would like a deck to allow for safe exit from the slidinQ doors that have always been there as well. y There was no public comment. Fritzler suggested the applicant remove the sliding doors and replace them with a solid window. Mabusth stated that she believed the applicant should be allowed some kind of access platform out of the doors, for safety sake, adding that a second exit is beneficial. Rahn noted that two accesses are not mandatory. � In light of the removals, Mabusth stated that she felt a 4' platform was a fair compromise. Page 5 of 29 MINUTES OF THE • ORONO PLANNING COI�IIVIISSION MEETING Monday, October 20, 2003 , 6:00 o'clock p.m. (#S) #OZ-2858 SCOTT STANDA, 2659 CASCO POINT ROAD, Continued Hawn questioned whether the deck and/or structure could be rnoved further than 1' from the property line. Mr. Standa pointed out that the entire boathouse is just one foot off the line and has always been that way. Mabusth acknowledged that many of the boathouses in the neighborhood are the same way. She reminded the applicant that the City does not approve of major structural repairs to nonconforming structures such as this. Mr. Standa asked how the storm of 1998, which damaged several boathouses in the area, impacted this policy. He questioned if the precedent had already been set allowin�the repair of these structures due to `acts of god', and reasoned that soil erosion etc. are also `acts of god'. While catastrophic events are exempt, Gaffron reiterated that the code limits structural repair. He indicated that painting, new siding, and roofing are allo�vable repairs. Mabusth stated that she felt a 4' landing was reasonable. Gaffron asked for further clarification, whether the deck was to be 4'X4' with 3' �Lzde access steps. Aesthetically,Rahn indicated that the deck should run the entire lenUth of the patio doors, which are approximately 6'. He suggested the Commission approve a 7'X4' deck and access stairs 3' wide to the ground. Mabusth and Chair Smith concurred. Fritzler disagreed, statin�that one exit should be sufficient and the doors should be replaced by a window. Gaffron reviewed the recommendation, which included the removal of the concrete slab, fabric, and sidewalk along the side of the home, reconstruction of the lake path and retaining walls to be permitted at a later date, and the fire pit and flagpole allowed remaining. Chair Smith asked if this was acceptable to the applicant. � Mr. Standa agreed. Pa�e 6 of 29 • MINUTES OF THE ORONO PLANNING COMMISSION NfEETING .

Stevan Wa�er, the Applicant, and Martin Woody, the Architect, were present. Foth reported that the applicant has submitted an application for a building expansion and remodel in the B-1 Zonin�District. As per City Code Section 78-642 any application for a commercial building permit prompts a site review by the PlanninJ Commission and City Council. The applicant has requested the following: 1) Commercial site plan review in order to obtain a building permit to remodel and expand an existing 2310 s.f. concrete block building on the property to a 4080 s.f. buildin�, a 1,770 s.f. total expansion. 2) A setback variance in order to re-use the existing si�pole which is setback 8' from the front property line where 10' is required. The si�nage itself w�ll extend an additional4' into the setback area for a sign setback of 4' when 10' is required.* 3) Hardcover variance to allow existin� driveway hardcover to become structural hardcover.* *Foth noted that each of these items would be revie�ved in part with the overall commercial site review Foth e�plained that the property located at 3607 Shoreline Drive has historically served as an equipment rental business. While law�n and garden equipment rental is a permitted use in the district, there is a great deal of outdoor storage associated with this business. Outdoor storage is a conditional use in the I�tdttstrial district only. While the e�istin� sign is located 8' from the front property line, where a 10' setback is required, Foth stated that the applicant is proposin� to re-use this si�n in part including the non-conformin� setback. The property is allo�ved si�a�e up to 250 s.f.; therefore, the proposed si�a�e of 150 s.f. is in compliance with Zoning Ordinance requirements.
