January 2 4, 3.990 Chairman Senkler called the meeting to order at 6: 15PVI . Present: Bob Ellman , Bob Olson , Senkler Motion made by Senkler, seconded by Olson to approve the minutes of June 28, 1989 as amended . All aye, motion passed . Chairman Senkler reviewed the application with members of the board . He stated that Mr. Keith Johnson of 12450 Ingersoll Ave. No. , has made application to the City of Hugo for a variance to construct a 24' X 36' pole building , 50' from the east shoreline of Sunset Lake. The property in question is zoned RR2 and approximately one acre in size. The City stic)reland regulation requires a minimum 100' setback from the shoreline of the lake for structures of this nature on recreational lakes. The drawing as shown appears to meet the 40' setback requirement from the front property line, however, it is 50' short of the requirement from the lake. We have requested that Mr. Johnson stake the building site in question to afford you an opportunity to view the site and get a perspective as to the buildings location from the road , lakeshore, and other buildings in the area. On Mr. Johnson ' s site plan he indicates that the mound septic system and several trees limit the placement of this building on site. Accessory buildings under 1800 sq . ft. in size are permitted in RR2 zoning district subject to site plan approval by the city council . It should be noted that the site plan is not drawn to scale and if the lot dimensions are correct, the size of the building and it' s placement on site is not proportionate to the size of the site, making the building size look smaller than it actually is. It should also be noted that the Department of Natural Resources has been in contact with the city indicating their concern regarding this variance request. The DNR has been notified of this evenings meeting of the Board of Zoning Adjustments. It would appear that they do not like the variance from the lake and would rather see the city approve a variance from the road setback and the principal residence on site. The city still has not received approval from the Rice Creek Watershed District, nor copies of the information requested in the watershed districts letter dated December 19, l989. Notices of this variance request have been sent to the property owners within 300' of the property in question , as well as, the Sunset Lake Homeowners Association . Mr., Keith Johnson informed the commission and the audience that the proposed structure would have metal siding and roof , the same color or similar to the existing home. Mr. Johnson plans to hire a contractor for the construction . ��
