New addition will not be closer to the lake than existing structure. Amber appeared on behalf of the applicants. The audience was polled with no one speaking for or against the variance as requested. After consideration and discussion, Thomas Lee made a motion, second by Robert Schwartz and carried with Steve Schierer voting no, to approve a variance of 52’ from the required ordinary high water level setback of 100’ for the placement of the proposed development as described in the variance application dated September 17, 2014 48’ from the ordinary high water level.

(7:40 p.m.) Steven Berndt, Lot 3 Block 2 Jacobson’s Pelican View Subdivision, Big Pelican Lake in Dunn Township, requested the following: Property as purchased currently has 29.6% impervious surface. Proposed additions to covered porch add 240 square feet. Removal of part of lakeside deck and some sidewalks removes 321 square feet. Net result would be 29.2% Impervious surface. Proposed addition decreases setback from ordinary high water level to 70’. The audience was polled with no one speaking for or against the variance as requested. It was noted that the applicant’s proposed development would be 68’ from the ordinary high water level as determined by the Land and Resource Department instead of the requested 70’. The applicant noted that as a result of the Land and Resource determination, the proposed 8’ by 20’ addition will be reduced to 6’ by 20’ to keep the proposed development 70’ from the ordinary high water level. After consideration and discussion, Paul Larson made a motion, second by Thomas Lee and unanimously carried to approve the variances for the proposed development as described in the variance application dated September 14, 2014 and as depicted on the drawing submitted with the application noting the reduction in size from 8’ by 20’ to 6’ by 20’ with the condition that before a permit can be issued for the new development the portion of the lake side deck identified for removal must be removed.

In the case that this variance is granted I would be turning in a request to the Planning Commission asking for a permit for a cluster development allowing me to construct the home without the removal of the existing cabin. The audience was polled with no one speaking for or against the variance as requested. After consideration and discussion and with the applicant’s verbal consent, Thomas Lee made a motion, second by Steve Schierer and unanimously carried, to table this hearing until a future meeting date to allow the applicant an opportunity to consider other alternatives, for example - platting.

The variance is necessary to fulfill an agreement with neighbors, Don and Sue Swenson, for an exchange of property to which applicant is bound.
