FILE NO. 1982 WHEREAS, Daniel S. Perkins (hereinafter "the applicant") is the owner of the property located at 5� Landmark Drive within the Ciry of Orono (hereinafter "City") and legally described as follows: Lot 1, Block 2, Bayside Landing, Hennepin County, Minnesota (hereinafter the "property"); and WHEREAS, per Municipal Zoning Code Section 10.03, Subdivision 19 the applicant has made application to the Ciry of Orono to permit the removal of 200 cubic yards of peat from a 3.2 acre wetland within the property. The wetland is a protected wetland of the City of Orono.

The property is located in the RR-lA, Single Family Rural Residential Zonin� District requiring five acres of area. Two acres of which must be contiguous. The property consists of a total of 10.4 acres, 7.2 acres of dry and 3.2 acres of wet.

Three members of the Orono Planning Commission reviewed this application on November 21, 1994 and recommended approval of the proposed variance and conditional use permit based on the following fmdin�s: A. The excavation of the wetland on a scale limited to 200 cubic yards will have a negligible affect on the 150 acre wetland. B. The excavation of open water areas will enhance wildlife habitat. C. Portions of this wetland have already been excavated for the purposes of retrieving peat for the past thirty years without any negative impact on the wetland or the existing wildlife habitat. D. The excavation of ponding areas will improve water storage and provide a sediment trap. E. The regrading of banks adjacent to the open water areas will encourage more beneficial wetland/aquatic vegetation. 4. 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 =ranting the variance would not adversely affect traffic conditions, light, air nor pose a fire hazard or other danger to neighboring properties; would not merely serve as a convenience to the applicant, but is necessary to alleviate a demonstrable hardship or difficulty; is necessary to preserve a substantial property ri=ht of the applicant; and would be in keepinQ with the spirit and intent of the Zoning Code and Comprehensive Plan of the City. 5. The City Council finds that granting a conditional use permit to allow the annual excavation of 200 cubic yards of peat from the wetland during the winter months of 199� will not be detrimental to the health, safery or general welfare of the public, would not adversely affect light, air nor pose a fire hazard or other danger to nei�hboring properties, nor will its use depreciate surroundin� property values and that the proposed level of use of the property will be in keeping with the intent and objectives of the Zoning Code and Comprehensive Plan of the City.
