Chairman Senkler asked for public comments. Area residents felt that <br /> considering the size of the lots in the area and location of the <br /> construction site in relation to the lake, this was an inappropriate area <br /> for a pole building . Residents felt the esthetic value of the Sunset Lake <br /> area would diminish with the construction of a pole building and it would <br /> set a precedent. Several residents stated they had no objection to <br /> additional sotorage on Mr . Johnson ' s lot but felt it should be further from <br /> the lakeshore and the exterior should be similar to the residence. <br /> Chairman Senkler informed the audience that he and Bob Olson visited the <br /> site and measured the setback from the ordinary high water mark from the <br /> lake. The proposed structure would be 22' from that mark . Commissioners <br /> concurred that a variance to the required setback of 78% was too great to <br /> allow. Members were also concerned that if the structure would be allowed <br /> there would be no space to relocate the septic system should the need <br /> arise. <br /> Motion made by Senkler, seconded by Ellman to recommend denial of the <br /> variance request of Keith Johnson , 12450 Ingersoll Ave. No, to construct a <br /> pole structure to within 22' of the ordinary high water mark of Sunset <br /> Lake for the following reasons; <br /> 1 . Variance request of 80% of the required setback is too great. <br /> 2. The septic system would be only 20' from the structure. <br /> 3. Allowing the structure would set a precedent for future pole <br /> structures in the area. <br /> All aye, motion passed . <br /> Motion made by Ellman , seconded by Semi klcar- to adjourn at 6:47. <br /> All aye, motion passed . <br /> Carole LaBelle, Secretary <br /> Hugo Planning Commission <br />
