UINN. 1 RRl Box 123 Pelican Rapids, MN 36572 28 April 1985 County Board of Adjustment Otter Tail County Courthouse Fergus Falls, Minnesota 56537 RE: Application for a Variance made by Clifford Treinen, Pelican Rapids Dear County Board of Adjustment: We object to granting the requested vairiance. Minnesota Statutes Chapter 39^*27) subdivision 7 states: Variances shall only be permitted when they are in harmony- with the general purpose and intent of the official control in cases when there are practical difficulties or particular hard­ ship in the way of carrying out the strict letter of any offi­ cial control, and when the terms of the variance are consistent with the comprehensive plan,. "Hardship" as used in connection with the granting of a variance means the property in question cannot be put to a reasonable use if used under the conditions allowed by the official controls; the plight of the landowner is due to circumstances unique to his property not created by the landowner; and the variance, if granted, will not alter the essential character of the locality • • • • • • We intend to show that the "practical difficulties or particular hard­ ship" that Mr. Treinen claims are insufficient grounds to grant a variance based on the law. Mr. Treinen has requested a variance to build at 110 feet fromithe shoreline instead of the required 200 feet based on three things; 1) trees he does not wish to remove 2) a driveway which would be a problem because of the "low" area 3) a hill which drops off 1) The trees in question are basswoods and elms. There is one oak located at about 170 feet which would not have to be harmed if the house were located at 200 feet. Furthermore, there are 400 feet of mature tjorees directly behind the 200 foot site on Mr. Treinen's property and an additional 200 feet of trees behind that on the ad­ jacent property. Removal of the trees would not affect the quality of the site. 1 2) The "problem” with the driveway is inspecific, a) If drainage is the problem being referred to: in order to get to either the 110' site or the 200' site, the driveway has to cross an area as low as the 200' site (see elevation map). If the road can be constructed to pass the first "low" area, it most certainly csin be constructed to get to the 200' site, b) If snow drifting is the problem: we believe a road could be constructed to minimize this. The cost would probably be greater, but it could be done with minimcil aesthetic damage. 3) The hill drops off approximately ten feet from the 110' point to the 200' point. The elevation at the 200' site is well above the water level and would be a suitable house site that would allow reasonable use of the property. We do not believe that Mr. Treinen has established either practical diffi­ culty or particular hardship. Therefore, without this establishment, it is not within the law to grant a variance However, if it is deemed that a hardship does exist, we suggest that Mr. Treinen is creating it himself by choosing this particular site and ig­ noring the many other possibilities his 79 acres with over one half mile of lakeshore offer him. He ,is in no way restricted by a small parcei of land. Other sites are available on his property that would comply with the regulations. The law states specifically that "the variance, if granted, will not alter the essential character of the locality." The essential character of the Lake Jacobs lake and shoreline is like that of Maplewood State Park - hardwood forest interspersed with meadows. It is basically undeveloped. A house located on the requested hill site at 110 feet from the shore v/ould stick out like a sore thumb and could never fit in with that essential character of a natural environment lake. The intent of the law restricting building on natural environment lakes like Lake Jacobs is not only to protect those delicate lakes from pollu­ tion and overcrowding, but also to protect and maintain the beauty of the natural shoreline for the enjoyment of those people using the lake. In this particular instance the natural beauty of the shoreline would be spoiled by allowing a house to be built that violates the regulations. Therefore, we request most sincerely that a variance not be granted.

RRl Box 123 Pelican Rapids, MN 2 June 1985 County Board of Adjustment Otter Tail County Courthouse Fergus Falls, Minnesota 56537 RE: Application for a Variance made by Clifford Treinen, Pelican Rapids Dear County Board of Adjustment: We object to granting the requested variance. Minnesota Environmental Rights Law (MERE) Chapter 116B.01 states the purpose of the legislation to be: The legislature finds and declares that each person is entitled by right to the protection, preservation, and enhancement of air, water, land, and other natural resources located within the state and that each person has the responsibility to contribute to the protec­ tion, preservation, and enhancement thereof. The legislature further declares its policy to create and maintain within the state conditions under which man and nature can exist in productive harmony in order that present and future generations may enjoy clean air and water, productive land, and other natural resources with which this state has been endowed. Accordingly, it is in the public interest to provide an adequate civil remedy to protect air, water, land and other natural resources located within the state from pollution, impairment, or des­ truction. Minnesota Environmental Rights Law Chapter 116B.07, Subd. 2 states: In any such administrative, licensing, or similar proceedings, the agency shall consider the alleged impairment, pollution, or des­ truction of the air, water, land, or other natural resources located within the state and no conduct shall be authorized or approved which does, or is likely to have such effect so long as there is a feasible and prudent alternative consistent with the reasonable requirement of the public health, safety, and welfare and the state's paramount concern for the protection of its air, water, land, and other natural resources from pollution, impairment, or destruction, siderations alone shall not justify such conduct. Economic con- "Scenic and esthetic resources" (MERL 116B.02 Subd. 4) are natural resources that the state feels worthy of protection. Regulations specifically protecting these resources are the 200' setback and the 30' height limitation on buildings. Mr. Treinen has applied for a variance on approximately 80 acres with approximately .6 mile of lakeshore. On his lakeshore, there are many "prudent and reasonable alternatives" (to the proposed building site) consistent with the building regu­ lations . Due to the facts that 1) the proposed site i® on an outjutting exposed hill with only a single row of small trees on the lakeshore side and 2) consequently, the L-shaped 50' X 50' structure will have lake exposure on both 50' sides, the house will definitely impair the lakeshore's natural scenic beauty. (See photo, elevation map and aerial view.) It would also provide a precedent for future variances which would further impair that natural resource. Minnesota Statutes Chapter 394.27, Subdivision 7 states: ... Variances shall only be permitted when they are in harmony with the general purpose and intent of the official control in cases when there practical difficulties or particular hardship in the way of carrying out the strict letter of any official control and when the terms of the var­ iance are consistent with the comprehensive plan ... the plight of the landowner is due to circumstances unique to his property not created by the landowner; and the variance, if granted, will not alter the essential character of the locality... No variance may be granted that would allow any use that is prohibited in the zoning district in which the subject property is located... This variance would not be "in harmony with the general purposes and intent of the official control". It would impair the scenic beauty of the area. The essential character of Lake Jacobs lake and shoreline is like that of Maplewood State Park - hardwood forest interspersed with meadows. It is basically undeveloped. A house located on the requested hill site would spoil the natural beauty of the shoreline and never fit in with the essential character of a natural environment lake. The law also states: "No variance may be granted that would allow any use that is prohibited in the zoning district in which the subject property is located." The Otter Tail County Subdivisions Control Ordinance Chapter 111, Subdivision 2d states: "No lot on the preliminary plat shall be approved if in the opinion of the Planning Commission the lot roes not provide adequate access or an adequate building site meeting the requirements of all rules and regulations in the Ordinance and the Shoreline Management Ordinance of Otter Tail County." If this variance is granted, it will allow a lot to be created that is prohibited by County ordinance. In summary: 1) Alternatives are available to the proposed building site (MERL Ch. 116B.07, sub.2) 2) A building on the proposed site would impair the natural resource of scenic beauty of the lakeshore and provide a precedent for future variances that would further im­ pair that beauty. (MERL Ch. 116B.07, sub.2; MERL 116B.01) 3) The variance is not in harmony with the general purpose and intent of the official control and would alter the essential character of the natural environment lake. (MN Statutes Ch. 394.27 sub. 7) 4) Granting this variance would allow a use that is specifically prohibited in the Otter Tail County Subdivisions Ordinance. (MN Statutes Ch. 394.27 sub. 7; Otter Tail County Sub. Ord. Ch. Ill, sub. 2d) Based on these points, it is not within the law to grant this variance and we res­ pectfully request that it not be granted.
