RE: Site Permit Application for Addition, Lots 3 & 4 Hoffman Beach, West McDonald
Lake (56-386)
Dear Mr. Engebretson,
Per our phone conversation today regarding conditions placed on Variance granted on
November 6, 2008 for removal of 2 decks and Impervious coverage must be less than
25%.
I spoke with my Administrator, Bill Kalar, regarding the back wood deck that you
mentioned you would like to keep for approximately 2 weeks before removing it as you
needed it to gain entrance to your dwelling. You also stated that it would be removed when
construction starts as it is in the footprint of your proposed addition. Mr. Kalar has agreed
to your request as long as the deck is removed when construction begins.
As I mentioned during our conversation, our office will need to verify onsite the removal of
all other items mentioned on your drawing and also that you do not exceed the 25%
impervious coverage. Once you have these items removed, other than the back wood
deck, mail Site Permit, Grade & Fill Permit (if needed) and Pre-Application site Inspection
Request to our office and we will send Scott Ellingson, Inspector, to verify removal (Site
Permit, Grade & Fill Permit and Pre-Application Request enclosed).
If you have any questions, please contact me.
Sincerely,
Mavis Samuelson
Permit Tech
End.
MINUTES OF THE MEETING
OF THE
OTTER TAIL COUNTY BOARD OF ADJUSTMENT
Thursday, November 6, 2008
The Otter Tail County Board of Adjustment met Thursday, November 6, 2008, with the following persons in
attendance:
Paul Larson
Steve Schierer
Randall Mann
Carl 2ick
Michael Harris
Joe Maske
Mark Ronning, Land and Resource Management
Bill Kalar, Director - Land and Resource Management Department
David Hauser, Otter Tail County Attorney
Called to Order - Randall Mann Chair called the meeting of the Board of Adjustment to order at 6:00 p.m.
Minutes Approved - The Board of Adjustment approved the minutes of the October 2, 2008 meeting as mailed.
The Board of Adjustment considered the following applications for variance:
Jim Rhoades - Approved the variance application as requested with a condition. (6:02 p.m.)
Jim Rhoades, part of Government Lot 1, Section 5 of Everts Township by Round Lake requested the following;
Requesting to cover patio area facing the lake. Covering this area will be in violation of “String Line Test” by no more
than 8 feet. Being approximately 75’ from the ordinary high water level. The audience was polled with no one
speaking for or against the variance as requested. After consideration and discussion, Paul Larson made a motion,
second by Joe Maske and carried with Steve Schierer abstaining and with Randall Mann voting no, to approve the
variance as requested with the condition that the proposed patio area cannot be enclosed. It was note that the
variance as requested is not a substantial variation from the requirements of the ordinance as the majority of the
proposed patio area is behind the string line. The practical difficulty/hardship is the terrain of the applicant’s property.
The individual voting no stated that a portion of the proposed development is ahead of the string line, that the
applicant could cover approximately 75% of the patio area without a variance and the need for a variance was self
imposed by the applicant placement of the dwelling.
Collin Engebretson - Approved the variance application as requested with conditions. (6:15 p.m.)
Collin Engebretson Et Al, Lots 3 and 4 Hoffman Beach, West McDonald Lake in Dora Township requested a variance
of 6T 8” from the required ordinary high water level setback of 100’, a variance of 1T 8” from the required shore
impact zone setback of 50’, and a variance of 3’ from the required road right-of-way setback of 20’ for the placement
of an addition 38’ 4" from the ordinary high water level and 17’ from the road right-of-way at the northwest corner of
the addition. The audience was polled with no one speaking for or against the variance as requested. After
consideration and discussion, Steve Schierer made a motion, second by Carl Zick and unanimously carried, to
approve a variance of 61 ’ 8” from the required ordinary high water level setback of 100’, a variance of 1T 8” from the
required shore impact zone setback of 50’, and a variance of 3' from the required road right-of-way setback of 20’ for
the placement of an addition 38’ 4” from the ordinary high water level and 17’ from the road right-of-way at the
northwest corner of the addition with the condition that no more than 25% of the total eligible lot area can be covered
with impervious surfaces and with the condition that before a site permit for the proposed development can be issued
the lower lakeside wood deck and back wood deck must be removed. It was noted that the proposed development
will be no closer to the ordinary high water level than the existing development and the variance as requested is very
similar to what was previously granted to another individual in this immediate neighborhood.
Thomas D. Sohns - Approve the variance application as requested. (6:20 p.m.)
Thomas D. Sohns, part of Government Lots 7 and 8, Section 28 of Friberg Township by West Red River Lake
requested the following; This parcel became a lot of record on August 10, 1988. Due to rule change regarding non
riparian lots in February of 1992 this lot does not meet size. Lot is 399.34’ by 350’ or approximately 139,769 square
feet. 160,000 square feet is required, I would like the lot to be declared buildable for residential use. I would like to
replace the existing dwelling. The audience was polled with David Paetow speaking in support of the variance as
requested. After consideration and discussion, Steve Schierer made a motion, second by Joe Maske and
unanimously carried, to approve Parcel No. 28-000-28-0207-001 (part of Government Lots 7 and 8) as a buildable lot
for residential use. It was noted that this property already has a residential use.
