May 29, 2009
Dear Mr. Kalar,
Per our phone discussion on Friday, May 29,1 am addressing this letter to you to inform
you that I will be removing the greenhouse structure from my property on or before June
15,2009.
This greenhouse idea was something we were trying to do to supplement our income due
to the low resort bookings for 2009. Or business is taking a big hit in this economy and
we need to come up with something else to drive some revenue so we can pay our bills.
As of now we £ire seeing about a 30% decline in bookings for 2009. This is going to be
catastrophic, if things do not turn around. Because of this, we have to be creative and do
something else to make money and this was one option.
Our intention was to try it this year and see if it works. It is a temporary business and is
only open from mid-May to mid-June so it fits into the resort when we are not full of
people. We are running the whole operation under the Weslake Resort business so we
can pay our sales tax under this name.
I apologize for not knowing I had to have a conditional use permit to do this and put up a
temporary structure on my property for this short period of time. As I mentioned earlier,
we will remove the structure and discontinue the sales on or before June 15, 2009. If we
decide this is a good strategy and we would like to do this more permanently or every
year, we will complete the proper application process through your office.
Bill as you know I have always been open and honest with you and I am not trying to do
anything improper. Please accept my apology and know that I will follow the proper
channels in the future. Thanks again for your input and understanding.

ConditionsWse Permit- Wes Lake Resort/Tom Masloski: J
Motion by Froemming, second by Nelson, and carried with Mosher abstaining, to approve a
Conditional Use Permit to increase dwelling units on-site from 13 to 15 and construct a
40 X 80 storage building, and replace cabin #12 with a new cabin within 5 years with a
condition as recommended by the Planning Commission.
Conditional Use Permit - Homeland Investment Co. #1:
Land & Resource Director, Bill Kalar, reported that the Planning Commission recommended
tabling this Conditional Use Permit because a citizen's petition had been filed with the
Environmental Quality Board requesting that an Environmental Assessment Worksheet be
completed for this road and driveway project. Mr. Kalar advised the Planning Commission
that they had three choices as follows: 1) the project could be recommended for denial, 2)
the project could be tabled for the preparation of an Environmental Needs Determination, or
3) the project could be tabled for preparation of an EAW.
Commissioner Lee asked if building 800 ft. of road to County specifications requires an EAW.
Mr. Kalar stated that, typically, it would not require an EAW; however, the reason, in this
case, is because a citizen’s petition has been filed with the EQB and the County is required to
respond to the petition. A final approval for the Conditional Use Permit request cannot occur
until after it is determined whether or not an EAW is needed.
Attorney for the Applicant, Paul Jenson, asked to address the Board on several points. He
stated that the applicant was given no notice and the rules of the EQB to file a petition require
specific notice to the applicant or developer. His opinion is that the citizen’s petition is
defective because the rules regarding notice were not followed. His second point was that
the Governmental Unit’s decisions are to require an EAW or deny the petition not the
application. It was not presented this way at the Planning Commission. Mr. Jenson
explained that the Applicant, Mr. Morken, requested that an EAW be completed at the
Planning Commission because he had no advance notice of the petition and an EAW has
already been prepared for the initial large project, so it seems that with a scaled back project
only to build the roads, the current EAW would be sufficient. Thirdly, the petition is assuming
and anticipating things that are not being requested in the CUP.
County Attorney, David Hauser, responded to several points. First, the petition goes to the
EQB and the EQB has directed the County to deal with the petition. If the developer did not
receive notice, that is an issue for the EQB, not the County. He stated that the County is
required to look at cumulative impacts of what might be anticipated. His opinion is that the
County must require an EAW, deny the application, or complete a Needs Analysis to
determine whether an EAW is necessary.
Mr. Jenson disagreed with the County Attorneys’ determination. He read the following rules
from the EQB: The RGU must make a decision about the petition within 30 working days of
the day it was received. The RGU either grants the petition and requires the proposer to
complete an EAW or denies the petition and decides that the Environmental Review is
unneccessary.
Mr. Kalar stated that the reason he made the statements to the Planning Commission is as
follows: 1) if the request to build the road is denied, there is no grounds for the petition,
2) determining the need for an EAW, which was the suggested alternative at the Planning
otter Tail County, Planning Commission

WesBake Resort Conditional Use Permit Application
This request is for multiple improvements to Weslake Resort. We would like to
do this in projects with a final completion within five years.
Project A: Construct a new owner’s home that will also house the office in the
lower level walkout. This will require additional drain-field lines to be added to
the existing drain-field.
Project B: Convert the existing owners home into a cabin.
Project C: Construct a 40 x 80 pole shed to be used for storage of resort
equipment.
Project D: Add on to the existing office and convert it into a cabin. This addition
will only be 15’ x 20’ and will be necessary so we can bury the water and electric
so they come up in the middle of the addition. The addition will be the kitchen
and bathroom fpr the cabin.

Attention: Bill Kalar - Land & Resource Director
Re: Otter Tail County Conditional Use Permit #5981
On September 19, 2002, B J Jensen, LLC dba Weslake Resort, Inc. was issued
Conditional Use Permit #5981 authorizing the addition of two 4-bedroom cabins; Cabin
A to be built winter of 2002/2003 and Cabin B to be built winter of 2003/2004 - single
story with approximately 2000n square feet of footprint. This permit expires on
September 19, 2004.
Cabin A was built during the winter of 2002/2003 and is currently generating revenue
with sales and property tax benefits being paid to the state and county. My wife and I
did a large portion of the work ourselves which caused us to have a very busy and non
stop winter.
Cabin B has not been built as we discovered the enormous amount of time and energy
required to build the first cabin simply drained us of accomplishing such an ambitious
goal of completing two cabins in two years. Therefore, we are requesting an extension
of 2 years to our Conditional Use Permit #5981 which would allow us ample time to
build this second cabin. The success of bookings in the first cabin has excellent, so we
are confident a second cabin can and will be equally successful. We just need a large
enough window of time to build this second unit without draining our energy levels.
Please let us know if there is any other information you need in order to present this
request to the Otter Tail County Board of Commissioners.
Respectfully submitted, .
Paul Jerisen Becky Jensen
