AGENDA ITEM: CONTINUATION OF ITEM TO CONSIDER A RESOLUTION APPROVING A VARI-
ANCE FROM THE MINIMUM LAKE SETBACK ON A PROPERTY LOCATED IN THE
R-1 (LOW DENSITY RESIDENTIAL) ZONING DISTRICT AND SHORELAND OVER-
LAY DISTRICT AT LOT 11, SEVEN ACRES AND LOTS 1, 2, AND 3, KNEAFSEY’S
COVE, 14756 COVE AVENUE SE
DISCUSSION: Introduction
Highmark Builders, on behalf of property owner Jamie A Belzer Revocable Trust, is
requesting a variance from the minimum lake setback to construct a pool. The property
is located at 14756 Cove Avenue SE along the eastern shores of Lower Prior Lake.
The requested variance is listed below and illustrated on the attached survey:
• A 1.9-foot variance from the minimum 75-foot lake setback. (Subsection
1130.402(4))
Regulation Requirement Proposed Current Variance
Shoreland Setback* 75 ft. 73.1 ft. 75 ft. 1.9ft.
History
The property is zoned R-1 (Low Density Residential), is guided R-LD (Urban Low Den-
sity) on the 2040 Comprehensive Plan Land Use Map, and is located in the Shoreland
Overlay District of Lower Prior Lake. The property owner purchased two adjoining lots
in recent years and combined them into one lot, then demolished the southern home
to allow for an addition to the existing single-family home.
The Board of Adjustment held a hearing on the application on July 8th, 2024. At the
meeting staff presented the variance application and the Board of Adjustment heard
from the applicant’s representative and opened the hearing and provided an oppor-
tunity for public comment. The Board of Adjustment closed the hearing and after dis-
cussion related to the project, and with outstanding issues and questions, tabled the
item for the next available meeting.
Staff has been in communication with the applicant regarding their plans for the pool.
The applicant feels their practical difficulties are still valid and have provided additional
information to support their position the shoreline has been altered. In addition, the
applicant has revised their designs to reduce the impact of the variance. The applicant
is proposing to remove the squared, south-west, corner of the pool and instead clip the
corner to minimize the requested variance from 68 feet to 73.1 feet. This was accom-
plished through shortening the pool sides on the west by 10.4 feet and on the south by
7 feet.
2
The plan as presented requires a variance to proceed as the proposed pool is located
within 75 feet of the identified (current) ordinary high water level of Prior Lake. If the
Board of Adjustment deems practical difficulties exist they may approve the variance
request. If the Board of Adjustment does not find practical difficulties have been pre-
sented the Board shall establish findings of fact for denial.
Current Circumstances
The applicant originally requested to build a pool in conjunction with the home addition
that was proposed to be 20 ft. X 40 ft. The new pool is 13ft (south) x 29.6 ft. (west) x
40 ft. (east) x 20 ft. (north) pool, as shown on the survey, does meet the required 904
ft. ordinary high water (OHW) setback on the subject property, but the proposed loca-
tion does not meet the required OHW setback when the distance is measured across
the property line to the south.
According to the applicant, the shoreline on the adjacent property to the south was
augmented by the addition of a retaining wall and expansion of the sand/beach area
several years ago that changed the 904 ft. contour and impacts the OHW setback on
their lot. Staff is not able to verify the 904 ft. contour was altered, but review of available
aerial photographs do seem to support the applicants claim. In addition, the applicants
surveyor identified elevations in the field and the spot elevations do not match the lo-
cation of the 904 ft. contour on the Scott County GIS website. If the historic OHW ele-
vations which were identified based on surrounding parcel surveys were used, as op-
posed to in the field elevations, a variance would not be required as the proposed pool
location would meet the 75 ft. setback requirement.
The shoreline is located on the west side of the property. The lot area above the 904
elevation is 119,399 square feet with a large pond to the east. The existing single-
family residence was constructed in 2007 and does not meet standard lakeside set-
backs; the closest point of the existing residence is on the north corner at 71.4 feet.
The proposed pool location is greater than 75’ from the 904 elevation on the subject
property but is 73.1 feet from the 904 elevation at its closest point on the adjacent
parcel. The proposed pool meets the front and side yard setback requirements and is
below the maximum 30% impervious surface. If approved, the total impervious surface
area for the property would be 11.4%.
Lake Setback: Subsection 1130.40 (4) lists the setback requirements for riparian lots.
Setbacks are measured from the Ordinary High Water (OHW) mark (904 elevation) of
Lower Prior Lake. This property does not qualify for setback averaging due to a lack of
two adjacent lots within 150 feet with existing principal structures. Therefore, the mini-
mum setback of 75 feet from the OHW applies.
A site visit was conducted on July 3, 2024.
ISSUES: This project includes a request for a variance. Below are the findings recommended by
staff from the July 8, 2024 Board of Adjustment meeting. Section 1152 states that the
Board of Adjustment may grant a variance from the strict application of the provisions
of the Zoning Ordinance, provided that:
o Variances shall only be permitted when they are in harmony with the general
purposes and intent of the Zoning Code.
3
The granting of the variance is in harmony with the general purposes of the
Ordinance and Comprehensive Plan. The purpose of the Zoning Ordinance is to
“Promote the most appropriate and orderly development of the residential,
business, industrial, public land, and public areas”. Furthermore, the Shoreland
Ordinance (Section 1130) policy’s intent is “in the best interests of the public health,
safety, and welfare to provide for the wise development of shoreland of public
waters.”
o Variances shall only be permitted when they are consistent with the
Comprehensive Plan.
The granting of the variance is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan and its goal
to maintain and improve physical character and identity. This is accomplished by
achieving compatible relationships between different types of land uses by utilizing
design standards, appropriate buffers, land use transitions, and high-quality design.
o Variances may be granted when the applicant for the variance establishes
that there are practical difficulties in complying with the Zoning Code.
“Practical difficulties,” as used in connection with the granting of a variance,
means the property owner proposes to use the property in a reasonable
manner not permitted by the Zoning Code, the plight of the landowner is due
to circumstances unique to the property not created by the landowner, and
the variance, if granted, will not alter the essential character of the locality.
Although a smaller pool could be installed which would meet the required setback,
the applicant identifies an adjustment to the 904’ contour on an adjacent parcel as
a practical difficulty in complying with the strict adherence to the Ordinance. The
pool, as proposed, cannot meet the required 75-foot OHW setback on the adjacent
parcel due to the addition of a retaining wall and expansion of the beach on the
adjacent property. The condition that creates the practical difficulty was not created
by the landowner, and if approved, will not alter the essential character of the
property.
o Economic considerations alone do not constitute practical difficulties.
Economic considerations alone are not the reason for the variance request.
Conclusion
As was discussed during the July 8, 2024 meeting, staff believed the variance re-
quested had merit in that the variance appears to be necessary only due to the con-
struction of a retaining wall and expansion of the beach which adjusted the 904 ft.
elevation on the adjacent parcel; however, staff also acknowledged there is discretion
regarding the size of the pool and the minimum design necessary to achieve the de-
sires of the applicant and owners and a smaller pool design would not require variance
approval. The applicant has revised their pool design since the July 8, 2024 meeting
to come closer into conformance with City Code requirements. The city of Prior Lake
uses existing contours when determining structure setbacks; however, it is noted the
proposed pool design would not require a variance if the historic OHW identified on the
applicants updated survey were used.
4
If the Planning Commission, acting as the Board of Adjustment, finds the requested
variance is warranted due to the 904 ft. contour being artificially adjusted on the adja-
cent parcel, staff has prepared a resolution for approval with the following conditions:
➢ The variance resolution shall be recorded at Scott County.
➢ All necessary permits shall be obtained prior to the commencement of construction.
➢ An as-built survey shall be submitted to the Building Department prior to the issu-
ance of a Certificate of Occupancy.
If the Planning Commission, acting as the Board of Adjustment, finds the requested
variance is not warranted, the commission shall direct staff to prepare a resolution for
denial to be considered at the next meeting.
ALTERNATIVES: 1. If the Board of Adjustment finds the requested variance is warranted in this case, a
motion and a second to adopt a resolution approving the variance requested for
14756 Cove Avenue SE with the listed conditions.
2. If the Board of Adjustment finds the requested variance is not warranted in this
case, a motion and a second to deny the variance and direct staff to prepare a
resolution of denial.
RECOMMENDED
MOTIONS:
3. If the Board of Adjustment would like additional information from the applicant about
the requested variance, a motion and a second to table or continue discussion of
the item for specific purpose as directed by the Board.

RESOLUTION 24-07PC
VARIANCE FROM THE MINIMUM LAKE SETBACK FOR A PROPERTY IN THE
R-1 SD (LOW DENSITY RESIDENTIAL SHORELAND) ZONING DISTRICT
Motion By: Second By:
WHEREAS, The Prior Lake Planning Commission, acting as the Board of Adjustment, conducted a
public hearing on July 8, 2024, to consider a request from Jeff and Jamie Belzer,
property owners, to approve a variance for a reduced lake setback to allow the
construction of a pool on a lot located in the R-1 SD (Low Density Residential Shoreland)
Zoning District at the following property:
14756 Cove Avenue Southeast, Prior Lake, MN 55372 (PID 258010620)
Legal Description: LOT 11, SEVEN ACRES AND LOTS 1, 2, AND 3 KNEAFSEY’S
COVE, 14756 COVE AVENUE SE.
WHEREAS, Notice of the public hearing on said variance request was duly published in accordance
with the applicable Prior Lake Ordinances; and
WHEREAS, The Planning Commission proceeded to hear all persons interested in this variance
request, and persons interested were afforded the opportunity to present their views and
objections related to the variance request; and
WHEREAS,
WHEREAS,
WHEREAS,
The Planning Commission has reviewed the application for the variance as contained in
PDEV24-000011 and held a hearing thereon on July 8, 2024; and
The Planning Commission, with a motion and a second, tabled the time for further
consideration by the applicant and staff.
The Planning Commission continued the item on August 26, 2024, and received the
applicant’s updated proposal.
WHEREAS, The Planning Commission has considered the effect of the proposed variance upon the
health, safety, and welfare of the community, the existing and anticipated traffic
conditions, light and air, danger of fire, risk to the public safety, the effect on property
values in the surrounding area and the effect of the proposed variance on the
Comprehensive Plan.
NOW THEREFORE, BE IT HEREBY RESOLVED BY THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF PRIOR
LAKE, MINNESOTA as follows:
1. The recitals set forth above are incorporated herein.
2. The Planning Commission hereby adopts the following findings:
a. Variances shall only be permitted when they are in harmony with the general
purposes and intent of the Zoning Code.
2
The granting of the variance is in harmony with the general purposes of the Ordinance and
Comprehensive Plan. The purpose of the Zoning Ordinance is to “Promote the most
appropriate and orderly development of the residential, business, industrial, public land, and
public areas”. Furthermore, the Shoreland Ordinance (Section 1130) policy’s intent is “in the
best interests of the public health, safety, and welfare to provide for the wise development
of shoreland of public waters.”
b. Variances shall only be permitted when they are consistent with the Comprehensive
Plan.
The granting of the variance is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan and its goal to
maintain and improve physical character and identity. This is accomplished by achieving
compatible relationships between different types of land uses by utilizing design standards,
appropriate buffers, land use transitions, and high-quality design.
c. Variances may be granted when the applicant for the variance establishes that there
are practical difficulties in complying with the Zoning Code. “Practical difficulties,”
as used in connection with the granting of a variance, means the property owner
proposes to use the property in a reasonable manner not permitted by the Zoning
Code, the plight of the landowner is due to circumstances unique to the property not
created by the landowner, and the variance, if granted, will not alter the essential
character of the locality.
Although a smaller pool could be installed which would meet the required setback, the
applicant identifies an adjustment to the 904’ contour on an adjacent parcel as a practical
difficulty in complying with the strict adherence to the Ordinance. The pool, as proposed,
cannot meet the required 75-foot OHW setback on the adjacent parcel due to the addition
of a retaining wall and expansion of the beach on the adjacent property. The condition that
creates the practical difficulty was not created by the landowner, and if approved, will not
alter the essential character of the property. The applicant has reduced the pool size to
minimize the requested varaince.
d. Economic considerations alone do not constitute practical difficulties.
Economic considerations are not the reason for the variance request.
3. Based upon the findings set forth herein, the Planning Commission hereby approves the
following variances to allow the construction of a pool in the R-1 SD (Low Density Residential
Shoreland) Zoning District:
a. A 1.9-foot variance from the required minimum 75-foot lake setback (Section 1130.402 (4))
4. The variances are subject to the following conditions of approval:
a. The variance resolution shall be recorded at Scott County.
b. A Building Permit and any other necessary permits shall be obtained from the Community
Development Department prior to the commencement of construction.
c. An as-built survey shall be submitted to the Building Department prior to the issuance of a
Certificate of Occupancy.
PASSED AND ADOPTED THIS 26th DAY OF AUGUST 2024.
