• <br />f <br />Shoreland Management Overlay <br />4. Exceptions to structure setback requirements. <br />a. Accessory structures may be located in the front yard of lakeshore <br />properties upon approval of a riparian lot variance. <br />(b) Design criteria for structures. <br />1. High water elevations. <br />a. Structures must be placed with the lowest floor 3 feet above the (OHW) <br />ordinary high water level in accordance with the local water management plan for the City of Lino <br />Lakes. <br />b. Water- oriented structures may have the lowest floor placed lower than the <br />elevation determined in the local water management plan if the structure is constructed of <br />flood- resistant materials to the elevation, electrical and mechanical equipment is placed above <br />the elevation and, if long duration flooding is anticipated, the structure is built to withstand ice <br />action and wind - driven waves and debris. <br />2. Water - oriented accessory structures. Each lot may have 1 water - oriented <br />accessory structure not meeting the normal structure setback in division (2)(a) above of this <br />chapter if this water - oriented structure complies with the following provisions: <br />a. The structure or facility must not exceed 10 feet in height, exclusive of safety <br />rails, and cannot occupy an area greater than 250 square feet. Detached decks must not exceed <br />8 feet above grade at any point; <br />b. The setback of the structure or facility from the ordinary high water level <br />must be at least 10 feet; <br />c. The structure or facility must be treated to reduce visibility as viewed from <br />public waters and adjacent shorelands by vegetation, topography, increased setbacks or color, <br />assuming summer, leaf -on conditions; <br />d. The roof may be used as a deck with safety rails, but must not be enclosed <br />or used as a storage area; <br />e. The structure or facility must not be designed or used for human habitation <br />and must not contain water supply or sewage treatment facilities; and <br />f. Within the shoreland areas of general development and recreational <br />development waterbodies, water - oriented accessory structures used solely for watercraft <br />storage, and including storage or related boating and water - oriented sporting equipment, may <br />occupy an area up to 400 square feet provided the maximum width of the structure is 20 feet as <br />measured parallel to the configuration of the shoreline. <br />
