Studies have shown that sediments, oils, and debris carried into the lake <br /> from highly urbanized areas have a detrimental impact on the quality of water in the lake. <br /> The intent of Orono's ordinance is to ensure that rainfall run-off will be cleansed by <br /> filtering through grassed or vegetated yard areas before entering the lake. <br /> Hardcover Zones - Allowed Percentages: <br /> 0-75 0% <br /> 75-250' 25% <br /> 250-500' 30% <br /> 500-1000' 35% <br /> Hardcover includes: <br /> - Roofs <br /> - Sidewalks <br /> - Paved or gravel driveways <br /> - Patios & decks (includes slatted decks) <br /> - Tops of retaining walls & rock walls <br /> - Decorative landscape areas underlain by plastic sheeting or fabric <br /> -Any other surface that does not allow direct absorption of rainfall <br /> into the ground <br /> INSTRUCTIONS FOR COMPLETING HARDCOVER CALCULATION WORKSHEET <br /> 1. Circle which setback zane (0-75', 75-250', etc.) the calcu(ation is for. <br /> 2. For each item of hardcover within that zone, enter the length and width, and <br /> multiply to get square footage (s.f.). <br /> 3. Add up all the square footages to get total square footage of hardcover. <br /> 4. Divide by the total area of property within the zone and multiply by 100 to get <br /> percentage of hardcover in the zone. <br /> 5. If changes in hardcover are proposed, you should do a "before" worksheet and <br /> "after" worksheet. If either results in percentages greater than those allowed, <br /> contact City staff before proceeding with your project planning! � <br /> 9 <br />
