SPECIFY HOW YOUR PROJECT VARIES FROM ORDINANCE REQUIREMENTS. PLEASE BE BRIEF AS THIS WILL BE USED FOR PUBLIC NOTIFICATION. Last fall we were issued a building permit to construct a 30’ X 56’ garage on the back lot of our lake property on the east shore of Little Pine Lake. This lot according to our abstract is 60’X 200’. However, prior to beginning construction, we became aware of a 2002 survey that indicates that the road (Benny Lane) which runs between our lake shore property and back lot is not where the abstract indicates that it should be. It is actually about 8’ farther easL indicating that our main lakeshore property is in reality on the road! It is our intention to maintain a 20’ setback from the road as required by the county ordinance. We feel that a structure any closer to the road would be a hindrance to snow removal. However, to keep a 20’ setback from the actual location of this road, our structure will come within approximately 2’ of the adjacent back property. We are therefore requesting a variance from the 10’ setback in order to construct our garage/storage shed. ^gtSiatTS-r th -.V " •(( I UNDERSTAND THAT ^ MANAGEMENT ORDl/JANCE.'SUBDiyidiO .VE APPLIEQ FOR A VARIANCE FROM THE REQUIREMENTS OF THE SHORELAND ONTROLS ORDINANCE OF OTTER TAIL COUNTY.
