ITEM I - REVIEW MINUTES OF PREVIOUS MEETING
MOTION BY ROSETH, SECOND BY LOFTUS TO APPROVE THE MINUTES AS
WRITTEN.
Vote taken signified ayes by Kedrowski, Loftus, Arnold, and
Roseth. MOTION CARRIED.
ITEM II - BRADLEY KING - SIDE -YARD VARIANCE
Bradley King, 15271 Fairbanks Trail, stated he is requesting a 5
foot east side yard variance to construct a three season porch
and deck to enjoy the lake and for additional room.
Terris Sandbeck, Associate Planner, presented the information as
per memo on April 4, 1991. In 1984 a 5 foot variance was for
construction of an addition. The proposed deck and porch
addition would increase the lot ratio from 11% to 17% which is
within the Shoreland District's lot coverage limitation of 30 %.
Two retaining walls have been constructed adjacent to the
lakeshore. Upon inspection of the site by the Building Official,
it is his recommendation that immediate erosion control be
installed until permanent ground cover can be established.
Staff has reviewed this proposal in terms of the four variance
standards of the zoning ordinance and these requirements have
been met. Since the location of the house was at a legal
non - conforming setback, the structure's location was not the
result of the current homeowners nor the City of Prior Lake. The
proposed addition would preserve the exterior conformity of the
home; would not be out of character of the neighborhood nor
encroach closer to the side property line than the legal
non- conformiNg setback of the existing home.

Comments from the Commissioners were that they could ses no
problem with the variance only that the erosion problem should be
addressed.
Mr. King stated that as soon as the building is done he would be
sodding the area in question.
MOTION BY KEDROWSKI, SECOND BY LOFTUS, TO APPROVE A 5 FOOT EAST
SIDE YARD VARIANCE FOR 15271 FAIRBANKS TRAIL WITH THE CONTINGENCY
THAT A SILT FENCE BE INSTALLED ON BOTH LEVELS OF THE RETAINING
WALLS UNTIL PERMANENT GROUND COVER IS ESTABLISHED, RATIONAL BEING
THE PROPOSED CONSTRUCTION WILL NOT BE CLOSER TO THE PROPERTY LINE
THAN THE EXISTING LEGAL NON - CONFORMING SETBACK OF THE HOME AND
THE APPLICATION IS CONSISTENT WITH PAST POLICY AND WILL NOT BE
DETRIMENTAL TO THE HFALTH AND WELFARE OF THE NEIGHBORHOOD.
Vote taken signified ayes by Kedrowski, Loftus, Roseth, and
Arnold. MOTION CARRIED.
Discussion followed on the Tim Connors home occupation
that will be appealed before the City Council.
