City Council meeting of February 5, 1990 Page 2 special meeting. It should be noted that a large group of residents residing on Sunset Lake appeared at said meeting, and indicated their objections to allowing a pole barn on the site so close to the lake. The DNR has indicated their concern regarding the issuance of a variance of this magnitude. In a letter from the RCWD, it was noted that the applicant still had not provided the following required for the issuance of a permit: 1. A commitment to install a 2. Provide elevation showinq the proposed garage (must 3. Posting of cash surety in project. sediment -control fence as required. the minimum building opening elevation on be 969.2' or higher). the amount of $250.00 upon completion of the It was also pointed out that the site plan submitted was not drawn to scale, and one cannot get a true perspective of the building size in its relationship to the site. It was also noted that the actual proposed distance from the high-water mark: is 22' and not 50' as requested by the applicant. The Board of Zoning Adjustments, after careful deliberation, unanimously recommended denial of the variance request to construct a pole barn approximately 22' from the ordinary high-water mark of Sunset Lake. McAllister made motion, Jesinsk.i seconded, to deny the request of Keith Johnson of 12450 Ingersoll Avenue for a variance to construct a 24' x 36' pole building 50' from the east shoreline of Sunset Lake. Denial of this application is based on the PC recommendation and the following findings: 1. The variance request of 78% of the required setback from the lake is too great. 2. The ability to expand the septic system in the future would be limited by putting this building 20' from the existing septic system/drainfield. 3. Allowing a structure of this nature that close to the la[. -.'e could set a precedent for future pole barn structures on Sunset Lake. 4. This type of building would be out -of -character with the neighborhood. All Aye. Motion Carried. SITE PLAN APPROVAL (J.R. JOHNSON SUPPLY) On behalf of the J.R. Johnson Supply Company, Mr. Rick: Johnson of 5226 Frenchman Road has made application to the City of Hugo for amended site plan approval for his greenhouses located at the above referenced address. The property in question is zoned CB and contains approximately 70 acres. To date, Mr. Johnson has amended his plan on several occasions, and is now requesting that the site be expanded approximately 120' to the north and that the fuel storage tanks on site be approved by the City. The City staff can see no problem with the expansion of the site 1.20' to the north, and the amendments to building layout previously approved by the City Council in December, 1989. An inspection of the fuel storage facility was made by the City's fire marshal, and copies of the tank: design and State approvals for said storage are on file with the City.
