APPEAL 85-9 - MARCELLA RANSON - Mrs. Hanson appeared before
the Board to request a 25 variance in setback for the purpose of
constructing a house with an attached garage. The hardship is
that she cannot build in a flood plain area. Mr. Simon reported
the proposed dwelling, located in an RS-3 OED district, requires
a 40 foot setback from the base setback line located 30 feet from
the center line of Jewel Crest. The dwelling is proposed to be
15 feet from the base setback line. Also, with the area being in
the flood fringe, the basement floor should be at or above the
flood elevation, which is 796. Mr. Fred Bauer and Mr. Dick
Foster, neighbors, spoke in favor of the new construction saying
they felt it to be an improvement. Mrs. Hanson said she has
lived on the property for 29 years, and has never had a flooding
problem, even when the Linnie Lac dam broke. Mr. Erno said the
house could be moved 8-10 feet closer to the channel, off the
road and have a larger driveway. Mr. Berken pointed out that
Mrs. Hanson might consider another design or placement of the
house on the lot, because the amount of fill needed could be
quite costly. Mr. David Fetter, an adjoing neighbor, said he had
no objection to the fill being placed on his side of Mrs.
Hanson's lot because his slope is just as steep.
The Board remained in open session
APPEAL #85-9 - Chairman Fohr moved to deny the appeal as
submitted, but to grant a 15 foot variance in setback for the
purpose of constructing a house. The hardship due to the slope
of the lot. Mr. Erno seconded and the motion carried.
ADJOURNMENT: Mrs. Nievinski moved to adjourn the meeting at 8:30
P.M. Mr. Berken seconded and the motion carried.
Respectfully submitted,
