ORONO REGULAR COUNCIL MEETING HELD JUNE 11, 1990 <br />ZONING FILE #1510 -BROWN CONTINUED <br />interior garage door would prove to be the most direct way to <br />access the apartment., rather than using the primary entrance to <br />the house. <br />Gaffron noted that Mr. Brown intends to remove only the <br />exterior garage access door, but that the interior garage door <br />into the apartment is proposed to remain. <br />Mr. Brown stated that he would then construct an exterior <br />doorway for the garage on the back side. He stated that having <br />the door would provide a safe exit in the case of a fire. <br />Mayor Grabek stated that by allowing the interior garage <br />door to remain, a duplex would be created from a single family <br />residence. <br />Councilmeraber Goetten stated that it had been her <br />understanding after speaking with .Mr. Brown that he would remove <br />the interior garage door. She said that if Mr. Brown would agree <br />to remove the interior door, she would look favorable on the <br />application. Goetten stated that because of the property <br />abutting a lake channel, the 75 -250' zone is significantly <br />increased. She said that creates a hardship for the hardcover <br />variance. <br />Mayor Grabek stated that Mr. Brown may agree to remove door <br />"A ", the interior garage access door, but it would take little • <br />effort for the door to be reopened at a future date. He <br />reiterated that a duplex is being created rather than a <br />"mother -in -law apartment" which is the intent of the code. <br />Callahan stated that the Ordinance allows for a duplex to be <br />created provided that there is no separate access. He agreed <br />with Mayor Grabek's concerns, stating that perhaps the Ordinance <br />needs to be reviewed. <br />Mr. Brown stated that he would comply with whatever the <br />Council recommends. <br />Bernhardson noted that the non - rental, guest apartment <br />language was added to the Code back in 1985/1986 when the City <br />received three applications similar to Mr. Brown's. He said that <br />Mr. Brown's application is the first to be submitted since that <br />time. He said that the language established back in 1985 was to <br />prevent the possibility of a subsequent owner using the guest <br />apartment for rental property. <br />Mr. Brown noted that he is required to seek conditional use <br />approval for the apartment because of the proposed installation <br />of a kitchen. <br />- 10 - 0 <br />
