Township by Devils Lake, requested a variance to construct a 24’ by 26’ detached garage 40’ from the
ordinary high water level and 15' from the road right-of-way. The audience was polled with no one speaking
for or against the request. After consideration and discussion, motion was made by Paul Larson, second

George and Dorothy Ford, part of Government Lot 1, Section 34 of Candor Township by Loon Lake,
requested a variance to subdivide, by metes and bounds description, an existing 3.1-acre parcel into two
residential parcels. One parcel would be 40,300 square feet and the other parcel would be 94,500 square
feet. The proposed parcels would meet the minimum size requirements for platted lot on a recreational
development lake. The minimum size for metes and bounds parcels within the shoreland area is 5 acres.
Chris, a Surveyor with Meadowland Surveying, Inc., appeared along with the applicant at the public
hearing. The audience was polled with no one speaking for or against the request. After consideration and
discussion, motion was made by Mark Steuart, second by Steve Schierer and unanimously carried, to deny
the variance as requested as no adequate hardship unique to the property had been shown that would
allow for the granting of the variance as requested. It was noted that the applicants do have the ability to
plat their property.

setback of 100’ for the placement of a 30’ by 36’ house 50’ from the ordinary high water level. The
audience was polled with no one speaking for or against the request. After consideration and discussion,
motion was made by Steve Schierer, second by Randall Mann and unanimously carried, to approve the
placement of a 30' by 36' dwelling no closer to the ordinary high water level than the existing sunroom,
which is assumed to be 50’ from the ordinary high water level. It was noted that the same footprint is being
used to replace an existing trailer and attached sunroom with a 30' by 36’ dwelling. It was also noted that
the proposed development would be smaller than the existing development by 160 square feet, however,
the applicants were cautioned to be very careful not to cover more than 25% of their total lot area with
impervious surfaces. Hardship is a substandard lot of record.

100' for the construction of a two bedroom cottage on an existing 40’ by 32’ foundation located 77’ from the
ordinary high water level. It was noted that the property has been greatly improved. Hardship is the
existing foundation on the applicant’s property.
