(6:48 p.m.) Victoria Winters, Champlin, MN, requested a variance to have a substandard back lot declared a buildable lot for residential purposes. The property is described as Lot 9, Block 2, Woodland Acres, Loon Lake in Candor Township. The audience was polled with no one speaking for or against the request. After consideration, motion was made by Paul Larson, second by Steve Schierer and unanimously carried, to declare Lot 9, Block 2, Woodland Acres a buildable lot for residential purposes. It was noted that this is a very large lot that had been residentially developed prior to the 1992 ordinance change that required back lots created after 1972 to be double the size of a front lot in order to be a buildable lot. Hardship is a back lot which, was platted in 1980 and which met the minimum size standards when platted, but has since been declared a non buildable lot because of a 1992 ordinance change. Harley L. Olson -Approved as requested. (6:53 p.m.) Harley L. Olson, Fergus Falls, MN, requested a variance of 3 to 5’ from the required ordinary high water level setback of 75’ for the placement of a new roof on an existing structure located 70 to 72’ from the ordinary high water level. The property is described as Lot 1, Sunset Beach and part of Government Lot 3, Section 24 of Elizabeth Township by Jewett Lake. The audience was polled with no one speaking for or against the request. After consideration, motion was made by Steve Schierer, second by Paul Larson and unanimously carried, to approve a variance of 3 to 5’ from the required ordinary high water level setback of 75’ for the placement of a new roof on an existing structure located 70 to 72’ from the ordinary high water level. It was noted that the proposed project is a roof replacement project and not a roof repair project, thereby, requiring a variance since the structure is ahead of the string line, however the roof replacement project is necessary maintenance for this structure. Hardship is a substandard lot of record. Luverne and Barbara Lovaasen - Approved as requested with a condition. (6:56 p.m.) Luverne and Barbara Lovaasen, Verges, MN, requested a variance to subdivide a 2.5-acre tract from and existing 60.25-acre parcel. The property is described as part of Government Lot 2, Section 11 of Dora Township by Sybil Lake. Letters from Burnell and Scott Lovaasen, Tom, Falk. Bertha Sonnenberg, Donald Greenwood and John and Janet Turgeon in support of the applicants’ request were read in summary for the record. The audience was polled with no one speaking for or against the request. After consideration, motion was made by Randall Mann, second by Steve Schierer and carried with Mark Steuart voting no, to approve the proposed subdivision of a 2.5 acre parcel from an existing 60.25 acre tract with the condition that a registered survey must be presented at the time of conveyance. It was noted that the proposed parcel does have room for two onsite septic systems and does have access to a public road. It was also noted that the granting of the variance would allow the applicants the ability to separate there home from the remaining building on this farm site and that the granting of this variance is consistent with previous actions of the Board of Adjustment in similar situations. Lois Ringquist, Minneapolis, MN, requested the following: “In order to build a second floor on my cottage, using the identical footprint, I request: 1. Lot be declared buildable, 2. Setback from OHWL, neighboring structure and lot line and perhaps, road right-of-way variances, 3. Impervious surface variance.” It should be noted that the structure is 13’ from the ordinary high water level, 19.5’ from the Northeast lot line, 0’ from the southwest lot line and 25’ from the road right of way. It should also be noted that currently 29% of the total lot area is covered with impervious surfaces. The property is described as the Northeast 55’ of the Reserve Lot, Camp Corliss, Clitherall Lake in Clitherall Township. The audience was polled with Donald Myers speaking in support of the variance as requested. After consideration, motion was made by Steve Schierer, second by Cecil Femling and unanimously carried, to declared the lot a buildable lot and to grant the variances as requested from the ordinary high water level, the lot lines and the road right-of-way for the construction of a second floor within the existing footprint, which will increase the overall height of the" existing structure by no more than 8', with the condition that no more than 25% of the total lot area can be covered with impervious surfaces, as determined by the Land and Resource Department, after completion of the proposed development. Hardship is a substandard lot of record. It was noted that the impervious surface coverage is the only issue that can be brought into compliance with the ordinance.
