1,We are Marc and Kathy Gruenenwald and we are the new owners of Barky’s Resort as of
August We are requesting a variance on the side and high water setbacks on the
existing property to make our resort more economically viable. The resort has been in
business for decades. The units were placed on the property in the early 60’s and are now
is need of updating and repairs to keep up with our guests changing expectations.
Attachment A shows the property as it is situated now with the current setbacks. Due to
the unique shape of our parcel of land we are requesting the following variances.
The current setback on the north line is 7’. Under the requested variance we would like
the setback to be 17’ which is less than the required 50’, asking for a variance of 33’.
The current setback on the south line is 17’. Under the requested variance we would like
the setback to be 18’ which is less than the required 50’, asking for a variance of 32’.
The units as situated right now are within approximately 25’ of the high water mark. We
are proposing to situate the new units at least 37.5’ from the high water mark. This is
closer than the required 75’, asking for a variance of 37.5’, but further back than the
current units.
Attachment B shows the proposed renovations.
We will not be in code by requesting these variances, but we will be closer to code
compliance than we are currently. We are asking your flexibility so that we may improve
our resort and be competitive in today’s market keeping it a year round business in Otter
Tail County for our family.
