Land Services: stop‑work order issued after structure exceeded 2024 variance
Summary
Morrison County Land Services told the Board of Adjustment that inspections found floor trusses and walkable flooring consistent with a story and a half, prompting a stop‑work order and notice of violation; the applicant now seeks after‑the‑fact variances for the dwelling and a lakeside deck.
Amy of Morrison County Land Services presented photos, aerials and the property's survey history and told the board that staff observed framing and floor joists sufficient for living space on a second level. The county consulted the assessor and concluded the building would be valued as a story and a half, which prompted a stop‑work order and a first notice of violation.
Amy summarized the application as an after‑the‑fact request to continue a 28×24 1.5‑story dwelling at about 40 feet from the lake and to place a 459‑square‑foot deck 33 feet from the ordinary high‑water mark. She explained an updated survey changed the measured distances from the lake compared with the 2024 application; the current survey shows the lot at 10,370 square feet.
