Home My WebLink AboutRE: RR tracks/depot Christine Mattson From: Mark Strobel [MStrobel@Primera.com] Sent: Thursday, August 02, 2012 4:31 PM To: Christine Mattson Subject: RE: Train DepoUPlayhouse at 525 Hunter Pass Hi Christine. The model railroad track installation was indeed halted back in 2007 when a city inspector stopped at the house.At that time I never dreamed that a building permit would be needed to put a model train track on the lawn.The path that was going to be used for an expanded track is today nothing but a walking path that I occasionally mow—mostly so the Metropolitan Mosquito Control folks can get to the creek back there.A small circle of track still exists that is simply laid on the ground next to my driveway. It is by no means a permanent installation; in fact, I'd be pleased to disassemble it at any time. It is no longer used but kind of looks nice in the landscape. Please let me know. I do not wish to get into a building permit situation for the train depot and withdraw my request.Thanks for your kind assistance. Best regards, Mark Mark D.

I just left you a VM with more detail. Attached is a sketch of the train depot/playhouse that I'd like to put on a concrete slab in my backyard at 525 Hunter Pass in Orono. I have a hobby company based in Plymouth, MN that makes small riding trains. This building was used a few years ago at the MN State Fair at an exhibit there. It's very well built—in fact, it originally cost $26,000 to construct. The depot has the same roof pitch as my house and identical cedar shake shingles. I think it would look really nice in the backyard. We'd be using it as a playhouse and storage for my grandchildren's trikes, pool toys, etc. The signs indicated on the plan on the roof and the sides would not be used—well, except for the one on the end which now says "SAINT PAUL." I'd for sure change it to say "ORONO" ar maybe "WAYZATA." ;-) I hope that this is OK with the city. Just let me know if any kind of a permit is required. Thanks in advance. Mark Mark D.
