Commission deadlocks 3-3 and denies variance for enclosed porch on Ten Mile Lake
Summary
A 3-3 split resulted in denial of Eric and Rebekah Nesvig’s request to enclose a 10'x24' deck as a porch at a 67-foot setback on Ten Mile Lake. Commissioners cited other options to meet the setback and concerns the request was not in harmony with official controls.
Eric and Rebekah Nesvig sought permission to convert an existing 10-by-24-foot deck into an enclosed screen porch at a 67-foot setback from the OHWL of Ten Mile Lake. The commission vote was recorded as a 3-3 tie, which the minutes state resulted in denial; the commission’s findings said the applicants had alternatives that would meet setback requirements and that the request was not in harmony with the county’s official controls.
The minutes note a SRAM score of 16 for the property and that the septic system serves two 2-bedroom structures with combined sizing noted in the record. Because the motion failed, no permit conditions were granted; the minutes provide findings describing why a practical difficulty was not established.
