James W and Patricia Clarke - Approved as requested (8:25 p.m.)
James W and Patricia Clarke, Iowa City, lA, requested a variance for the construction of a new roof (i.e.
roof replacement) on an existing cabin. From the notes contained within the applicants’ file it appears that
the roof has been replaced and that the replacement was done prior to obtaining a site permit. It also
appears from the applicants’ drawing and from the notes that a portion of the replacement roof is both
ahead of the string line and less than 10’ from the side lot line. The property is described as Lot 6, Lucky
Horseshoe Bay, Lake Lida in Lida Township. The audience was polled with Robert Brungardt speaking for
the variance as requested. After consideration, motion was made by Randall Mann, second by Cecil
Femling and unanimously carried, to approve the roof replacement project as already completed by the
applicants. The granting of the variance provided the applicants with an opportunity to maintain their
property. It should be noted that the building size remained the same and that the only change resulted
from the overhang on the new roof.
John L and Cheryl M. Czech - Approved with condition - (8:34 p.m.)
John L. and Cheryl M. Czech, Circle Pines, MN, requested the following: “The north east corner of our
home is sinking from the weight of the upper floor. We believe this 12’ by 24’ room used to be a boathouse
in the past, which at some point became part of the basement. The footings that are under the end of the
house 12’ by 24’ area are not thick enough to handle the upper floor, which is the kitchen and dining room.
The floor heaves up real bad, we have large cracks in the back wall, also our roof sags badly from this
problem. We would raise the house, take out the walls, floor, and footing in this area. We would also like
to put the proper footings in and rebuild the three walls with treated lumber, plus add some windows. The
basement is only 6’ tall. We would like to add 3’ to the top of the existing brick walls all around the
basement and also put windows in. The plumbing goes through the floor joist all across the back wall, we
will have to replace it. We will also have to redo plumbing, rewire, and redo the heating in the basement.
We share our septic system with two houses to the south of us. We would like to be approved to be able to
have our own septic system if all possible.’’ It appears from the applicants’ drawing that variances are
needed from the shore impact zone, from the ordinary high water level setbacks, from the side lot line
setback and from the maximum impervious surface coverage of 25%. The property is described as part of
Lot 6 and all of Lot 7, Albrecht's Addition to Nirvana, Section 34 of Girard Township and Section 3 of
Nidaros Township by Stuart and East Battle Lakes. A letter from Denton 0. Baumbarger in support of the
applicants’ request was read for the record. Mr. Baumbarger noted that he had no objection to their
request for a septic system of their own provided that the action would not adversely impact the current
septic system used by our neighbors and us. A letter form John and Sara Bowling expressing three
concerns with the applicant’s request was read 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 unanimously carried, to approve the applicants’ request as stated in the applicants’
application, in the applicants attachments to the application and as depicted in the applicants’ drawings,
which were submitted with the application with the condition that 10’ by 12’ shed near the lake and near the
side lot line must be removed on or before September 1,2002.
^ Dennis and Torrie Angland - Denied - (8:45 p.m.)
Dennis and Torrie Angland, Des Moines, lA, requested a variance of 100’ from the required ordinary high
water level setback of 200’ for the construction of a 28’ by 32’ hunting cabin 100’ from the ordinary high
water level and a variance of 100’ from the required ordinary high water level setback of 150’ for the
placement of a sewer system (tank and mound) 50’ from the ordinary high water level. It should be noted
that the proposed system would be 50’ from the existing wetland. The property is described as part of
Government Lot 4, Section 22 of Eastern Township by Mary Lake. The audience was polled with Tom
Guse and Warner Clark speaking against the variance as requested. After consideration, motion was
made by Cecil Femling, second by Steve Schierer and unanimously carried, to deny the variance as
requested noting that the granting of the variance as requested would establish a precedence for this lake
which has very little development. _ iSCANNED

John and LaVonne - Approved as requested with condition - (8:12 p.m.)
John and LaVonne Leick, Vergas, MN, requested the following: “Currently we have a 2.25 acre parcel and
a 4.75 acre parcel. We want to relocate an existing iine. Current lot line runs through existing structure.
Propose a 3.2 acre parcel and a 3.8 acre parcel without platting.” The property is described as the North
280’ of the West 350’ of Government Lot 3 Easterly of Highway and the South 591.2’ of the North 871.2’ of
the West 350’ of Government Lot 3 East of the Highway, Section 26 of Dunn Township by Franklin Lake.
The audience was polled with no one speaking for or against the request. After consideration, motion was
made by Cecil Femling, second by Bert Olson and unanimously carried, to approve the relocation of the
existing lot line which will result in the creation of a 3.2 acre parcel and a 3.8 acre parcel with the condition
that a registered surveyor’s drawing must be presented at the time of conveyance. Hardship is that the
existing lot line runs through existing structures.
Ann Marie Eckert - Approved as requested - (8:14 p.m.)
Ann Marie Eckert, Joseph Eckert and Bob L. Eckert Jr., Point Venture, TX, requested the following: “jack
up existing structure, repair and raise foundation 16”. Reason for work is existing structure is too low and
is rotting at the perimeter. Guest house is less than 2’ beyond the string line." The property is described
as Lots 22 and 23, Augustana Beach First Addition, Otter Tail Lake in Amor Township. Dorothy Eckert
represented the applicant at the public hearing. The audience was polled with Sue Swenson speaking on
behalf of Jean Reynolds and she noted Jean Reynold’s support of the variance as requested. After
consideration, motion was made by Cecil Femling second by Steve Schierer and unanimously carried, to
allow the applicant to raise the existing structure by 16” as stated in the application and in the area as
depicted on the applicant’s drawing. It should be noted that the cabin would remain in the current footprint.
It was also noted that this variance approval is consistent with past actions of the Board of Adjustment and
the granting of the variance as requested will provide the applicant with an adequate opportunity to
maintain her property.
David and Carol Place - Approved as requested (8:24 p.m.)
David and Carol Place, Monterey, CA, requested the following: “We had a variance approved on 8/3/2000
to build an addition to our cabin on Eagle Lake, a 10-ft by 40-ft addition to the backside away from the lake.
We are now planning to add only a 10-ft by 28-ft addition along the length of the cabin but not including the
screened porch. The entrance to the cabin will be from the new addition side, and through the screened
porch. In order to avoid the addition looking line a “lean-to”, we need to replace the roof (which soon would
need replacing because of age) over the cabin and to include the roof over the new addition, raising the
ridge higher than it currently is. Our builder suggested that we rotate the roof 90 degrees to be able to
have a loft facing the lake (see diagrams). It would position the ridge of the roof perpendicular to the lake
rather than parallel. The ridge of the roof would be 16 ft high above the cabin. The construction will be
12/12 pitch, pre-built attic trusses. Since we have only a steep/high bank behind the cabin, and open
space to the east, and only one cabin directly west of us (and that cabin does not open toward our cabin
and they spend their outdoor time west of their cabin), our roof construction will not affect the view of any
other cabin or dwelling. The space between our cabins is used mainly for parking vehicles. Because of ‘
the small size of our cabin we have only space for one bedroom in the cabin without diminishing the living
space, and this change would give us an attic loft for sleeping purposes when our five grandchildren visit,
or other guests. It would greatly increase the functionality of our modest cabin.” The property is described
as part of Government Lot 4, Section 11 and part of Government Lot 1, Section 14 of Eagle Lake Township
by Eagle Lake. The audience was polled with no one speaking for or against the request. After
consideration, motion was made by Cecil Femling, second by Bert Olson and unanimously carried, to
approve the applicant’s request as stated in the applicants’ application, in the applicants attachments to the
application and as depicted in the applicants’ drawings, which were submitted with the application. It
should be noted that the applicants’ proposal will not obstruct the view from the adjacent properties and
that the existing cabin will remain in the same footprint.
