Box 66 ��=5=� Orono, MN 55356 Crystal Bay, MN 55323-0066 February 20, 2003 Janiece Hagland 4590 North Arm Drive W Orono, MN 55364 Re: Regulations for a guest apartment Dear Janiece: The purpose of this letter is to provide you with the information requested to potentially add a guest apartment to your home or to add onto your home to accommodate additional members of your family. As discussed in our phone conversation today, adding onto the existing detached garage to create a"guest house" would not meet the City's minimum lot area requirement. A guest house requires double the minimum lot area required in a zoning district. Since your property is located within the LR-lA zoning district, a minimum lot area of 2 acres is required. Therefore, a guest house would require a lot area of 4 acres ��•hereas your property is approximately 2.488 acres in area. However, instead of adding onto the detached garage, an addition onto your principal structure with a non-rental guest apartment is a permitted conditional use within the zoning district. Any addition onto your principal structure would be required to meet the following requirements: Front Yard Setback (from North Arm Drive) 50' Rear Yard Setback 50' Side Yard Setback (from property to the west) 30' Side Yard Street Setback (from North Arm Lane) 50' From other structures on the property 10' From septic systems 20' From wells 3' From wetlands 2G' Height of structure 30' or 2 '/z stories A non-rental guest apartment is for use of the occupants of the principal residence, including domestic employees or non-paying guests. At least one access door to the Telephone(952)249-4600 • Fax(952)249-4616 www.ci.orono.mn.us � ' apartment from within the principal structure is required and it must serve as the primary access to the apartment. The guest apartment can not have utilities that are separately metered from the principal residence utilities or a separate street address. A non-rental guest apartment requires a Conditional Use Permit(CUP) from the City. The application must address parking, sewage treatment,entryway to the guest apartment and the method of interior access. CUPs require Planning Commission and City Council review. Attached is a CUP application, including application deadline dates, for your information. If you choose to add onto the principal structure with additional living space instead of a . non-rental guest apartment and the plan is able to meet the required setbacks, sewage treatment requirements, etc. only a building permit will be required. Please note that the addition of a separate'/4 bathroom or full bathroom, kitchen area and bedroom may constitute an apartment. For more information regarding building permits,please contact a City Building Inspector. If you have any questions regarding the information in this letter, please do not hesitate to contact me at(952) 249-4600. ince ely, J nnifer Cha ut City Planner Attachments 2 � ' _ �2nvIlVIUM STANDARDS CITY OF ORONO Sin�le Family Residential Zoning Districts (See Zoning District Map on Page 8) � I.
