Mr. John Hancock has made application to the City of Hugo for a variance from the City shoreland regulations requiring a 200' setback for structures from the high water mark on the shore of Horseshoe Lake. The property in question was a separate lot of record in 1958, and currently cannot meet the setback requirements of the City's zoning regulations. The applicant is requesting a variance from the 200' setback requirement that will allow the principal structure to be constructed 150' from the high water mark on shoreline. The property in question is located on the western shore of Horseshoe Lake just north of 170th Street. The site is served by a private road easement, is zoned agriculture, and consists of approximately 1.42 acres. The applicant is requesting this variance to construct a single family residence on said site. The Board of Zoning Adjustments has recommended approval of the variance in question with the understanding that no structures on site will be located closer than 150' from the high water mark of Horseshoe Lake. The property in question is identified as Parcel No. 93004-0060. Mr. Chester Buchanan was present at the meeting and stated that he was unaware that the variance requested was from the high water on the shore of Horseshoe Lake. He had assumed the variance was from the existing shoreline on the day that he measured the distance' The high water mark for Horseshoe Lake had not been determined. Mr. Buchanan was concerned that he would be in violation of the variance should the area receive a great deal of moisture and the shoreline change after City approval. Atkinson made motion, McAllister seconded, to approve the request of Mr' John Hancock and Mr' Chester Buchanan for a variance from the City's shoreland regulations requiring a 200' setback from the high water mark on the shore of Horseshoe Lake that will allow the principal structure to be constructed 150' from the existing shoreline of Horseshoe Lake on the property identified as Parcel No. 93004-0060.
