Subject: Douglas Treadwater Variance Application
I discussed the above application for a variance from the $500
after-the-fact permit fee with Wally Senyk. Mr. Senyk indicated
that the variance request was not properly before the Board of
Adjustment for several reasons. -*
Firstly, the $500 after-the-fact permit fee was the result of a
Resolution passed by the Otter Tail County Commissioners.
Minnesota Chapter Section 394.23 provides that the County Board
shall have the power and authority to prepare and adopt a
comprehensive plan. In this case, the plan includes an after-
the-fact permit fee in the sum of $500. The amount of the fee is
an issue outside of the scope of the Board of Adjustment's
authority.
Secondly, the amount of the after-the-fact permit fee is not an
issue that relates to a hardship or an exceptional circumstance
that involves the use of the property. Economic considerations
alone shall not constitute a hardship if a reasonable use of the
property exists under the terms of the ordinance. Absent a basis
under the ordinance to grant a variance from the fee schedule
established by the County Board, the Board of Adjustment is
without authority to rule on this issue.
