Motion
James A. Gealow - Approved
Motion was made by Cecil Femling, second by David Holmgren and carried with Joe Maske abstaining, to approve a
variance of 10’ from the required lot line setback of 10’ for the placement of a drain field adjacent to the neighbor’s lot
line. Hardship is the lack of depth in the applicant’s lot and the wetlands located in the rear of the lot. It was also
noted that a licensed installer prepared the plan for this system and it is the best location for the drain field.

Jerry Condiff - Approved
Jerry Condiff, Battle Lake, MN, requested a variance of 28.5’ from the required ordinary high water level
setback of 75’ for a single story addition to an existing cabin 46.5’ from the ordinary high water level
and a variance from the required ordinary high water level setback of 75’ for a second story addition.
The property is described as Lot 29, Raddahl Survey, West Battle Lake in Clitherall Township. The
audience was polled with no one speaking for or against the request. After consideration, motion was
made by Randall Mann, seconded by Cecil Femling and carried with Mark Steuart voting no and with
John Everts abstaining, to approve the proposed first and second story development, as depicted on
the applicant’s drawing, with the following conditions: 1) the existing storage shed down by the lake
must be removed, 2) no water oriented accessory structures will be allowed in the future, 3) no more
than 25% of the total lot area can be covered with impervious surface, and 4) the area south of the road
cannot be used when determining the 25% calculation. It was noted that the proposed development
would be no closer to the ordinary high water level than the existing structure.
Linda Bowhall - Approved
Linda Bowhall, Erhard, MN, requested a variance of 15’ from the required ordinary high water level
setback of 100’ for the placement of a 24’ by 30’ utility structure 85’ from the ordinary high water level.
The property is described as Lot 16, Block 1, Tonseth Heights, Tonseth Lake in Friberg Township. The
audience was polled with no one speaking for or against the request. After consideration, motion was
made by Randall Mann, to approve the variance as requested with the condition that the two existing
10’ by 10’ shed must be removed and with the condition that no water oriented accessory structures will
be allowed in the future. This motion died for lack of a second. After additional discussion and '
consideration, motion was made by David Holmgren, second by Joe Maske and unanimously carried to
approve a variance of 15’ from the required ordinary high water level setback of 100’ for the placement
of a 24’ by 30’ utility structure 85’ from the ordinary high water level with the following conditions; 1) the
two existing 10’ by 10’ storage sheds must be removed and 2) no water oriented accessory structures
will be allowed in the future. Hardship is the rough terrain of the applicant’s property making it difficult
for development. It was also noted that this is the best location for the proposed structure and that
placement of the structure in this location will conceal it from the view of the adjacent properties.
