*WING ADMINISTRATOR'S REPORT:
#643 BRUCE CURTISS
1920 FAGERNESS POINT ROAD
VARIANCE
RESOLUTION #2342
Attorney Joseph Christensen was present on behalf of Mr.
& Mrs. Bruce Curtiss. He requested clarification of
Zoning Code Section 10.03 Subdivision 15(c).
Zoning Adm =inistrator Mabusth noted the issue of
structure encroachment /non- encroachment within the 75'
lakeshore setback area for Mr. Christensen. She noted
the issue in the Curtiss application is a variance for
fence structure within the 75' setback area and that
Section 10.03 Subdivision 15(c) only applies to
encroachment of yard requirements not required setbacks.
Mr. Christensen explained that reducing the height of
the 6' fence to 3 -1/2' would eliminate the sight
obstruction and therefore eliminate the need to angle
the fence near the driveway. He also noted that angling
the fence would create a less useable yard area for the
Curtiss'. He noted the issue of the portion of
Eagerness Point Road located on the Curtiss property.
He stated that the Curtiss' would grant the City an
• easement in exchange for not requiring that the fence be
removed out of the road right -of -way.
Staff concurred that if the fence were reduced to 3-
1/2', there would be no need to angle the fence, subject
to no plantings in the sightline area over 3 -1/2' in
height.
•
City Administrator Bernhardson stated that staff
recommended the City easement issue be pursued
independently by the applicant and not tied to any
variance approval. Because of the delay in this
application, staff recommended amending the date for
removal of the panel section of the existing fence to
February 16, 1988.
Mr. Christensen explained that Mr. Curtiss did not plan
on removing any fence panels, just cutting them down.
He requested that the Curtiss' be allowed until
approximately May 1st to complete the modifications to
the fence. He clarified that the Curtiss' would like to
leave the fence as located, reduce height to 3 -1/2',
install a gate and extension of 3 -1/2' fence on east end
up to the 26' wetland setback line.

320 OLD CRYSTAL BAY ROAD
CLASS III SUBDIVISION
PRELIMINARY PLAT
RESOLUTION #2343
Mike Hilbelink and John Vogt were present for this
matter.
City Administrator Bernhardson explained the request for
a plat,of 11 lots served by two private roads providing
future access outlots to the existing platted east and
southern access corridors at the borders of the
• property. Planning Commission recommended a slight
realignment of the road in order to open up the building
envelope of Lot 6 which applicants have done.
Zoning Administrator Mabusth explained that staff
recommends realigning the lot lines between Lots 5, 6 & 7
to conform more with existing physical amenities on the
site that define "real" yard areas for the three lobs.
Mr. Hilbelink and Mr. Vogt felt there would not be a
problem with this realignment. They also requested that
the existing farmhouse be allowed the temporary use of
the existing driveway access onto Old Crystal Bay Road
until December 31, 1988.
It was moved by Councilmember Callahan, seconded by
Mayor Grabek, to adopt Resolution #2343 subject to staff
recommendation to realign lot line between Lots 5, 6 & 7
and allowing the temporary use of existing driveway onto
Old Crystal Bay Road by the existing farmhouse for one
year. Motion, Ayes 4, Nays 0.

151 CONCORDIA STREET
CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT/
VARIANCE
John and Lynn Waldron were present for this matter.
City Administrator Bernhardson explained the request to
repair the lakeshore bank that was damaged during the
1987 storm by lowering the grade to create a walkout
from the existing house, construct a retaining wall
along that cut up to the house, and regrade the slope
and seed it along the lakeshore. Planning Commission
recommended denial of the walkout cut, feeling it was
not related to the stabilization of the bank erosion,
and finding that allowing the walkout cut would set a
precedent in conflict with current City philosophy. He
cited two previous applications where a walkout and /or
grading were allowed within the 0 -75' lakeshore setback
zone, however unique hardships were present in these
cases that are not present in the Waldron application.
Per staff memo, Planning Commission recommended
approval of the ground level deck as proposed subject to
concurrent removal of the existing platform structure
near the lake. Staff generally agreed with Planning
Commission's recommendation.
Mr. Waldron submitted photos of his property and
explained that 2 to 4 feet of level ground at the top of
the slope was last during the storm, and he would like
to restore that area. Addressing the City's concern on
the effect of the quality and quantity of runoff into
the lake, he stated it has been established that his
proposal would not adversely effect the lake.
In response to Mr. Waldron's statement, City Engineer
Cook stated there would be very little difference in the
actual quality of the runoff water with any of the
options used.
Mr. Waldron explained that grading would be required
with any option used. Aesthetically, he felt his
proposal is preferable to the other options. He stated
that his proposal would involve less earth disturbance.
As a safety issue, his proposal would provide a better
view of the lakeshore from the house. He noted that
based on estimates he has obtained, the amount of his
disaster loan would not afford the options of
stabilization fabric, cribbing, or retaining wall.that
would stand up for years. Regarding setting a
precedent, he felt that the storm damage issue deemed
his application unique.

�23 WALDRON CONTINUED
Councilmember Callahan asked Mr. Waldron if the storm
damage could be repaired using his proposal without
creation of the walkout.
Mr. Waldron stated,it could be done to a certain extent
but would create less useable flat yard area.
Mayor Grabek felt it was inappropriate to allow the
creation of the walkout in conjunction with repairing
storm damage.
It was moved by Mayor Grabek, seconded by Councilmember
Callahan, to deny the conditional use permit and
variance as proposed.
Councilmember Peterson asked Mr. Waldron if he would
have made the request for the creation of the walkout
had the storm damage not occurred?
Mr. Waldron stated he would not have made the request
based on the fact that the previous owner made a similar
request for a walkout and was rejected based on the fact
that there was no physical hardship. He felt in his
case at this time, the storm damage presented a definite
• physical hardship.
Councilmember- Sime also felt that a complete alteration
was inappropriate in conjunction with restoration of
storm damage.
