Motion
David J and Lynn M. Quincer - Approved a side lot line variance.
Motion was made by David Holmgren, second by Randall Mann and carried with Mark Steuart voting no, to approve a
variance of 6.T from the required side lot line setback of 10’ for the present location of an existing dwelling 3.9’ from
the lot line at its nearest point. It was noted that the applicants have been unsuccessful in their attempts to acquire all
or part of the adjacent property and that the estimates have indicated that it would be very costly to move the dwelling
the additional 6.1 ’ needed to meet the required side lot line setback. Therefore, the granting of a side lot line variance
by the Board of Adjustment is justifiable when considering the applicants’ attempts to obtain additional property and
the prohibitive cost to move the dwelling the additional 6.T. Hardship is the terrain of the property.

Darlene Kalenda - Approved as requested with a condition.
Darlene Kalenda, St. Francis, MN, requested a variance of approximately 100’ from the required ordinary
high water level setback of 200’ for the construction of a 30’ by 48’ storage structure approximately 100’
from the ordinary high water level. The property is described as a 9.5-acre parcel in Government Lot 12,
Section 18 of Parkers Prairie Township by Nelson Lake. A letter from Lloyd W. and Severty M. Paulson in
support of the variance as requested was read for the record. Don Beltram appeared along with the
applicant at the public hearing. The audience was polled with no one speaking for or against the request.
After discussion and consideration, motion was made by Steve Schierer, second by David Holmgren and
unanimously carried, to approve a variance of approximately 100’ from the required ordinary high water
level setback of 200’ for the completion of the construction of a 30’ by 48’ storage structure in it present
location which is assumed to be approximately 100’ from the ordinary high water level with the condition
that the existing machine shed, identified as structure “E” on the applicant’s drawing must be removed on
or before June 1, 2002. Hardship is the terrain of the applicant’s property, which has water on three sides.
It was noted that the variance as approved is an improvement as it does eliminate a structure, which is
closer to the water than the proposed structure.
Carol J. Weis - Approved as requested.
Carol J. Weis, Perham, MN, requested the installation of a mound system on Martin’s Perfect Beach 250’
from Big Pine Lake, 25’ from the road right-of-away and 20’ from the lot line. A 20’ by 50’ area 6” deep will
be filled with 60 yards of fill to create the 2’ separation required for a mound system. Requesting a
variance of 6” from Otter Tail County’s Sanitation Code requirement of a 2’ separation between existing
elevation and water table/mottling or ordinary high water level. It should be noted that the State of
Minnesota requires only a T separation. The property is described as Lot 4, Block 1 Nelson’s Perfect
Beach and Part of Reserve Lot A, Martin’s Perfect Beach, Big Pine Lake in Corliss Township. The
audience was polled with no one speaking for or against the request. After discussion and consideration,
motion was made by Randall Mann, second by Steve Schierer and unanimously carried, to approve a
variance of 6” from the Otter Tail County’s Sanitation Code requirement of a 2’ separation between existing
elevation and water table/mottling or ordinary high water level for the purpose of installing a mound system
by the filing of a 20’ by 50’ area 6” deep with 60 yards of fill to create the required 2’ separation. It was
noted that the granting of the variance as requested will provide the applicant with the ability to enjoy the
same rights and privileges as others in the immediate area and will also provide the applicant with a
reasonable use of her property.
Janice E. Michels - Approved as requested.
Janice E. Michels, Breckenridge, MN, requested a variance of 43’ from the required ordinary high water
level setback of 100’ for a second level addition to an existing cabin 57’ from the ordinary high water level.

Bergerud and unanimously carried, to approve a variance of 43’ from the required ordinary high water level
setback of 100’ for a second level addition to an existing cabin 57’ from the ordinary high water level.

impact by the current high water level.

Depending on the outcome of this variance application my neighbor will grant me an easement as shown
on the drawing on file, which will allow me to extend, by 10’ side yard into his property. I have been given
estimates of between $10,000 and $15,000 to move my cabin the 6.1’ to the east. My request is a
variance to allow the easement to be calculated into the 10’ side yard calculation. The property is
described as Lot 4, Block 1, Juniper Hill, Marion Lake in Dead Lake Township. Luther P. Nervig, Attorney,
appeared along with the applicant at the public hearing. A letter from Virginia Grabarkewitz in support of
the variance as requested was read for the record. A letter from Marvin and Jean Donlan was read for the
record. The letter noted that the applicants have not been granted an easement and that they have no
plans to grant the applicants an easement. The audience was polled with no one speaking for or against
the request. After discussion and consideration, motion was made by David Holmgren, second by Randall
Mann and carried with Mark Steuart voting no, to approve a variance of 6.T from the required side lot line
setback of 10’ for the present location of an existing dwelling 3.9’ from the lot line at its nearest point. It
was noted that the applicants have been unsuccessful in their attempts to acquire all or part of the adjacent
property and that the estimates have indicated that it would be very costly to move the dwelling the
additional 6.T needed to meet the required side lot line setback. Therefore, the granting of a side lot line
variance by the Board of Adjustment is justifiable when considering the applicants’ attempts to obtain
additional property and the prohibitive cost to move the dwelling the additional 6.1 ’. Hardship is the terrain
of the property.
Lorraine Hicks - Tabled
Lorraine Hicks, Fergus Falls, MN, requested the following: as shown in the site plan drawing on file with the
County we wish to add onto the existing structure, which was built pre-ordinance in 1935. The new
addition shall be no closer to the ordinary high water level than the existing structure, or approximately, 38’,
therefore, requiring a variance of 162’ from the required ordinary high water level setback of 200’. It should
be noted that the applicant owns approximately 360’ of shoreline covering six lots, the plot contains a
wetland and the site of the septic system leaves little choice on the placement of this request. The
applicant would like to develop the wetland area into a natural habitat area and is prepared to consider
making part of the shoreline into a natural frontage. The property is described as Lots 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 and 9,
Fish Lake Beach, Fish Lake in Aurdal Township. Anthony Hicks appeared along with the applicant at the
public hearing. The audience was polled with Clifford and Margie Ringquist speaking in favor of the
applicant’s request. After discussion and consideration, motion was made by Steve Schierer, second by
Cecil Femling and unanimously carried, to table, with the verbal agreement of the applicant, this public
hearing until the next scheduled meeting of the Board of Adjustment so that the applicant will have an
opportunity to consider other possible alternatives for the proposed development.
Thomas O’Donnell - Approved as modified.
Thomas O’Donnell, Port Richey, FL, requested a variance for 12” to 0” in about 15 running feet for a
garage foundation that is already installed. The existing house was at a slight angle, which caused this
problem. The corner of new foundation towards the lake is over IT. The property is described as Lots 2
and 3, Klein and Adams Point, Marion Lake in Dead Lake Township. Floyd Barrett represented the
applicant at the public hearing. The audience was not polled, as there was no one in attendance at the
time of this variance hearing. After discussion and consideration, motion was made by David Holmgren,
second by Steve Schierer and unanimously carried, to approve a variance of 10” from the required side lot
line setback of 10’ for the placement of the garage foundation 9’ 2” from the lot line. It should be noted that
only a portion of the garage foundation is within the 10’ setback area. Hardship is a substandard lot of
record.

Hearing for David & Lynn Quincer concerning Lot 4, Block 1
Juniper Hills - 1-135-40, Dead Lake Twp.
on Thursday, December 13 at 7:30 p.m.
Re:
Copy: Luther Nervig, Atty.
David & Lynn Quincer
I am the owner of the adjacent Lot 5 on Marion Lake. David and Lynn Quincer and their
four children are a very amiable and concerned family who have worked very hard to
establish a home on Marion Lake. Because of the configuration of the lots in our area (in
that some of the side property lines run at an acute angle to the road rather than at a right
angle) an honest mistake was made in the placement of their home. It would indeed be a
disservice to them to require that this two-story home be removed and a new foundation
and necessary hook-ups done for such a small iniraction.. They have tried very hard to do
all they can to rectify this problem; their home is not creating a problem for any other
homes and the cost would be too prohibitive to justify this move.
The Quincers are very good people and we certainly welcome them to our
neighborthood. I would request that you give careful consideration to granting a variance
to allow this home to remain in its present location so they can get on with the necessary
settling and finishing to their property.
Sincerely,
Virginia Grabarkewitz
