t <br /> • Little Johanna was reclassified from a General Development Lake to a Recreational <br /> Development Lake due to reclassification by the DNR. <br /> • Several sections of the ordinance were removed that were redundant with regulations <br /> elsewhere in the Zoning Code. <br /> • The regulation pertaining to nonconforming lots was significantly amended due to <br /> changes in State Statute. <br /> • Subd. 5, Exceptions to Structure Setback Requirements,was amended to expressly <br /> include language pertaining to docks, fences, accessory structures, stairways and <br /> landings. More specifically, the draft includes language that would now permit up to <br /> one accessory storage shed within the typical structure setbacks from the lake under <br /> certain circumstances. Additionally staff has offered two different optional regulations <br /> that pertain to setbacks of new construction homes when adjacent lots have already been <br /> developed. Staff requests feedback on which of the two is most appropriate. <br /> • Subd. 6,Maintenance of the Shoreland,was also added and regulates the storage of <br /> items on the lakeshore. The use of docks has been clarified, though not significantly <br /> changed. The biggest change is an added regulation that would require items that are in <br /> a state of disrepair or inoperable to be prohibited from being stored outdoors. Staff <br /> request additional discussion and feedback on this item. <br /> • Shoreland alterations have been clarified and consolidated in to one area of the <br /> ordinance; however, no significant changes have been made. <br /> • • A regulation was added that would allow permeable surfaces that are not used as driving <br /> surfaces,to reduce the amount of landscaped area required in direct proportion to the <br /> permeability of the surface. This is a significant change to existing regulations and Staff <br /> requests additional comment and discussion on this item. <br /> • Detached Accessory Garages would now be permitted in the front yard of Lakeshore lots <br /> under certain circumstances and with Staff approval. This is also a significant change to <br /> the existing regulations ans Staff requests additional discussion and feedback on this <br /> item. <br /> • Staff has also added a section on Wetlands. This item is not yet complete and needs <br /> additional research. Staff is proposing that a wetland buffer and subsequent building <br /> setbacks be created within the Code. This item will require additional review and <br /> discussion at a later date. <br /> • Section 1325.07, Performance Standards, has also been included in the packet <br /> (attachment Q.
