recent survey found the lot lines to be.When the porch was built and permit

looks, there is only about a foot of land along side of the cabin that is mine.
Along with the cabin is the porch in question. The porch was added on to the
back side of the cabin (away from the lake) and straight behind existing cabin,
not changing the 16 foot width. The general thought of many of the neighbors is
that this pohoh is aesthetically pleasing. ^ *. ,4
issued, the line seemed to be at least 10 feet from the cabin.

Mr. Wayne Stein
County Auditor
Fergus Falls, MN 56537
Mr. Stein:
1 just received your letter for a variance application for Les Thorstenson of Rush Lake Township,
Marion Lake Lots 9 and 10.
Mr. Thorstenson built an addition onto his house on someone else's land, without the proper
permit and with a stop work order in place. It is my opinion that he knowingly placed this
project in jeopardy.
For this reason, I feel the variance should not be granted.
Sincerely,
LanyFuller
