feet of habitable space. Part of the addition will be used for guest quarters and part for <br /> storage. <br /> Mr. Steenholdt stated the application included estimates for the addition and guest <br /> quarters size. The actual existing e�erior measurements are approximately 2g'X 38' <br /> and 75o square feet for the guest quarters was a worst case scenario; he doesn't have an <br /> issue with �oo square foot maximum. The actual size could be less. He is still working <br /> with an architect. <br /> Mr. Steenholdt further explained the existing garage measures i4.5 feet in height. The <br /> garage is built into the hillside, so the rear of the structure walks out from the <br /> bunkhouse onto the hillside from the rear, measuring approximately�feet in height. <br /> The average of those heights would be less than i3 feet. <br /> Chair Hallan questioned the size of the existing accessory structure. Discussion ensued <br /> and it was determined there was a typo on the first page of the Staff Report which <br /> should have stated i,800 square feet of accessory structure was requested, not i,600. <br /> Planning Commission Member Paulbeck asked if the �oo square foot limit had to do <br /> with the view from the lake. Mr. Burslie stated the �oo square foot limit is a Shoreland <br /> Standard and the DNR does not want to saturate shoreline properties with activity. <br /> Planning Commission Member Paulbeck stated the addition will not change the view <br /> from the lake. <br /> Chair Hallan stated there currently is an exit from the upper floor at the walkout and a <br /> set of stairs. When asked, Mr. Steenholdt stated there would not be an additional <br /> stairway exit from the guest quarters or addition. <br /> Mr. Steenholdt added that the ground floor of the addition will be used only for storage. <br /> When asked by Chair Hallan, Mr. Steenholdt stated the 20' addition will be north and <br /> south and the 30' addition will be east and west. <br /> Planning Commission Member Birch asked to clarify the remaining requests since the <br /> applicant has agreed not to exceed�oo square feet for the guest quarters and the <br /> building height is not exceeding i3 feet. <br /> Mr. Steenholdt amended his application to not exceed�oo square feet total for the guest <br /> quarters. Mr. Burslie stated the request to exceed�oo square feet has been eliminated <br /> and the request to exceed the maximum building height is no longer relevant. The <br /> Planning Commission will only be acting on the second and third request. <br /> PUBLIC COMMENT OPENED: <br /> No public comment. <br /> MINUTES 2 <br /> Pequot Lakes Planning Commission <br /> November 2i, 2oi9 <br />
