The property is described as part of Government Lot 3, Section 3 of Dane Prairie Township by Wall Lake. The audience was polled with no one speaking for or against the request.

To Whom It May Concern: David and Carol Willey 17615 26’^ Ave N. Plymouth, MN 55447 has made application to the Otter Tail County Board of Adjustment for a variance as per requirements of the Otter Tail County Shoreland Management Ordinance and/or the Subdivision Controls Ordinance. The Otter Tail County Board of Adjustment will assemble for this hearing on Thursday, October 5, 2000, at 7:30 p.m.. in the Commissioners’ Room of the Otter Tail County Courthouse, Fergus Falls, MN. (Please use the west Law Enforcement entrance.) Individuals requiring special accommodations should contact the County Auditor’s office prior to the date of the public hearing. The property concerned in the application is legally described as ", ; part of Lot 1, Block 1, Birchwood Shores, Fire # 800 Section 14, Township 134, Range 41 - Township Name - Maine Lake No. 56-475, Lake Name - Pickerel, Class - RD The variance requested is: a variance to enlarge an existing deck on the east and west sides of the existing dwelling, a variance to raise the roof of an existing garage to accommodate a second story for bedrooms and a variance for an addition of 234 square feet to the east side of the existing dwelling to provide a bathroom area and to provide access to the second story bedrooms. It should be noted that the closest point of the addition would be 84’ from the ordinary high water level and that the existing garage is between 99 and 100’ from the ordinary high water level. Board of^djustment SecretaryDate: September 15, 2000 ..V.; Otter Tail County Board of Adjustment Dear Members; The purpose of this letter is to request your consideration of our Application for Variance. The property was built in 1971 and does not meet current shoreland requiremaits. Carol and 1 purchased the property on Pickerel Lake in 1993 with the intention that it would be our family vacation /retirement home. It has served us well, but after 30 years it does need new roofing, siding and windows. Also time has passed and our family has grown. Our four children are now married and have produced three grandchildren with a fourth on the way. We expect to have mwe grandchildren. To accommodate our family visiting us during the year and on special occasions, we need to add a bathroom and two bedrooms. We originally understood that we could not build closer to the lake. We did believe that we could expand into the space between the house and the garage as long as it did not interfere with the line of sight to the lake for our neighbors. We believe that we have two viable alternatives. One is to build a second story on the house. The other is to put a second story on the garage. Since the garage is largely outside the setback and the house is fully within the setback, putting the bedrooms above the garage and using the space between the house and garage for the stairway and bathroom seems to be the best alternative. As well, this approach is agreeable to our neighbors, George and Faye Hess. We hired an architect, prepared plans, found a builder and applied for a building permit but have been instructed to gain a variance before the building permit will be granted. We hope that you will visit the property to see first hand that this approach does not alter the essential nature of the property, is dictated by the circumstances unique to the property and is in substantially compliant with The Shweland Management Ordinance of Otter Tail County. We believe that the additional investment that we are willing to make in this property is of benefit to the area and respectfully ask that you grant our request. David Willey Carol Willey />?.
