1201.03 GENERAL PROVISIONS.
Subd. 1. Nonconforming buildings, structures and uses.
a. Purpose. It is the purpose of this section to regulate nonconforming structures
and uses and to specify those requirements, circumstances and conditions under
which
2010 S-5 1201-22
1201.03 Zoning Regulations 1201.03
nonconforming structures and uses will be operated and maintained. The zoning
ordinance establishes separate uses which are permitted in that district. It is
necessary and consistent with the establishment of these districts that
nonconforming structures and uses not be permitted to continue without
restriction. Furthermore, it is the intent of this section that all nonconforming
uses shall be eventually brought into conformity.
b. Any structure or use lawfully existing upon the effective date of this chapter
shall not be expanded, but may be continued at the size and in the manner of
operation existing upon the date except as hereinafter specified or subsequently
amended.
c. Nothing in this chapter shall prevent the placing of a nonconforming structure
into safe condition when the structure is declared unsafe by the Building
Official, unless the use is destroyed by fire or other peril to the extent of 50% of
its market value, and no building permit has been applied for within 180 days of
when the property is damaged. The market value shall be determined by the City
Assessor.
d. In instances where complete compliance cannot be achieved, nonconforming
structures may be moved or rebuilt, when it can be demonstrated that the
structure has less impact on adjacent properties, and conforms substantially
better with current zoning requirements. Approval of such cases shall take into
consideration existing and proposed landscaping,sight lines, and site drainage,
and shall be subject to review and recommendation by the Planning Commission
and approval by the City Council.
e. When any lawful nonconforming use of any structure or land in any district has
been changed to a conforming use, it shall not thereafter be changed to any
nonconforming use.
f. A lawful nonconforming use of a structure or parcel of land may be changed to
lessen the nonconformity of use. Once a nonconforming structure or parcel of
land has been changed, it shall not thereafter be so altered to increase the
nonconformity.
g. Any structure or use lawfully existing upon the effective date of this chapter may
be continued, including through repair, replacement, restoration, maintenance, or
improvement, but not including expansion, unless the structure is removed or the
use discontinued for a period of more than one year, after which the land on
which the nonconformity is located shall be subject to all of the regulations
specified by these zoning regulations for the district in which the land and
structures are located.
1201-23
2011 S-6
1201.03 Shorewood - Zoning and Subdivision Regulations 1201.03
h. Alterations may be made to a building containing lawful nonconforming
residential units when they will improve the livability thereof,provided they will
not increase the number of dwelling units or the nonconformity.
Lawful nonconforming, single-family residential units may be expanded,
provided:
(1) That the expansion does not increase the nonconformity and complies
with height and setback requirements of the district in which it is located;
(2) That if the nonconformity exists because the lot area does not meet the
minimum requirement for the district in which it is located, the expansion
shall not increase the floor area of all structures to lot area ratio to greater
than 30%.
(3) That the granting of the expansion shall not adversely affect the
aesthetics or character of the adjacent property.
(4) That any expansion shall take into consideration the protection of light
and air to the adjacent property.
(5) That in cases where a structure is too close to a lot line,the city may
require that the discrepancy be made up by enlarging the opposite
required yard space. (Example: where a building is eight feet from a side
lot line in a district in which a ten foot setback is required,the city may
require a 12 foot setback on the other side.)
Subd. 2. General building and performance requirements.
a. Purpose. The purpose of this section of the zoning ordinance is to establish
general development performance standards. These standards are intended and
designated to assure compatibility of uses; to prevent urban blight, deterioration
and decay; and to enhance the health, safety and general welfare of the residents
of the community.
b. Dwelling unit restriction.
(1) No cellar, basement, garage, tent or accessory building shall at any time
be used as an independent residence or dwelling unit, temporarily or
permanently. In residential districts recreational vehicles or equipment
1201-24
2011 S-6
1201.03 Zoning Regulations 1201.03
may be used as temporary living quarters, on property where an occupied
residence exists, for no more than 14 days in any calendar year. There
shall be no open discharge of sanitary waste from the vehicle or
equipment.
(2) Basements may be used as living quarters or rooms as a portion of
residential dwellings.
(3) Earth-sheltered housing shall not be considered as a basement or cellar.
(4) Tents, playhouses or similar structures may be used for play or
recreational purposes.
(5) All dwelling units shall be serviced with sanitary sewer, water supply and

c. Property development.
(1) Any person desiring to improve property for which a building permit is
required shall submit to the Building Official a survey prepared by a
registered surveyor of the property showing the location and dimensions
of existing and proposed structures, location of easements crossing the
property, encroachments and any other information which may be
necessary to ensure conformance to city ordinances. The Building
Official may waive the requirement of a survey in cases where it is
deemed unnecessary or where the location of property boundaries can be
verified.
(2) All structures shall be so placed so that they will not obstruct future
streets which may be constructed by the city in conformity with existing
streets and according to the system and standards employed by the city.
(3) A lot of record existing upon the effective date of this chapter in a
residential district which does not meet the requirements of this chapter
as to area or width may be utilized for a single-family detached dwelling
purpose, provided that:
(a) The lot must be in separate ownership and not of continuous
frontage with other lots in the same ownership;
(b) The measurement of the area and width are within 70%of the
requirements of this chapter;

family residential dwelling to remain on a lot while a new dwelling is
being constructed on the same lot, provided that:
(a) The new dwelling shall conform to the setback requirements of
the zoning district in which it is located;
(b) Construction of the new dwelling shall not result in substantially
greater site alteration(for example, tree removal or grading)than
if the original house is first removed;
(c) The property owner must provide an estimate from a licensed
contractor for the cost of removing the original dwelling and
restoring the site. From this estimate the city shall require a cash
escrow or letter of credit in the amount of 150% of the estimate to
ensure that the original dwelling will be removed within six
months of the date the building permit is issued for the new
dwelling.
(d) The property owner shall provide the cash escrow or letter of
credit referenced in(c) above at the time a building permit is
issued for the new dwelling. The new dwelling shall not be
occupied until a certificate of occupancy has been issued.
