CITY of ORONO <br /> Post Office Box 66•Crystal Bay,Minneeota 55323•Municipal O�o� <br /> • <br /> � . � � On the North Shore of Lake Minnetonka <br /> May 17, 1990 <br /> Harry Paasch <br /> 2150 Renwood Way <br /> Wayzata, MN 55391 <br /> RE: Proposed Additions <br /> Dear Mr. Paasch: <br /> As a fol low-up to our discussion regarding the proposed additions <br /> to your residence and garage, I would make the following <br /> comments: <br /> 1. Your lot area is about 8500 s.f., and is located in the <br /> 250-500' lakeshore setback zone, which is limited to <br /> 30$ hardcover. This would allow about 2550 s.f. of <br /> hardcover on the property. Based on the long driveway <br /> necessary to serve the existing garage to the rear of <br /> the lot, it appears that your property is likely <br /> already well above the 30$ hard surface limit, and this <br /> would increase as a result of your additions. It seems <br /> clear that a hardcover variance would be needed. <br /> 2. Required side setback for the house is 10'. From your <br /> drawing, it appears that the house addition might not <br /> meet this setback requirement. <br /> 3. Any detached garage must be 10 ' from any other <br /> structures and 10' from all lot lines. However, any <br /> garage between 750 and 1000 s.f. floor area must be <br /> located at least 15' from the side and rear lot lines. <br /> The proposed garage addition falls in this range, hence <br /> the proposed 5' rear lot line setback and the 12-13' <br /> side setback, would both need variances. <br /> 4. All properties in Orono less than 2 acres in area are <br /> limited to 15$ of the lot area in structural coverage. <br /> 15� of 8500 s.f. is about 1275 s.f. Your existing <br /> garage and house total about 1280 s.f. or just over the <br /> limit. Your proposed house addition and garage <br /> addition would increase lot coverage to approximately <br /> 2200 s.f. or about 26$. Again, a variance would be <br /> required. <br /> BUILDING&ZONING-473-7357 • ADMINISTRATION&FINANCE-473-7358 • PUBLIC WORKS-473-7359 <br /> ASSESSING FAX-473-0510 <br />
