MINUTES OF THE REGULAR ORONO CITY COUNCIL <br />MEETING HELD ON NOVEMBER 13, 1995 <br />( #7 - #2057 James N. A Stroh - Cor1tiniiPrl <br />Goetten asked Nystrom what his rationale <br />was for the hardship. Nystrom said he desired • <br />a cape cod stvle home with the master bedroom on the second story. Frazee called it a <br />modified shingle style. The design of the roof when reduced would result in a less <br />effective master bedroom. Nystrom said the tradeoffs of the proposal were so positive <br />that he did not feel the side setback variance should be denied. <br />Kelley said he would reconsider the application. Kelley moved, Callahan seconded, to <br />approve Application #2057 for the 6" side setback variance and a 26" overhang for a 8" <br />variance and an overhang encroachment of 1.2'. <br />Gaffron explained the need for the secondary variance for the overhang. Hurr asked <br />what the hardship_ was for the overhand. Frazee said the main concern was with the <br />slope. He asked to have both variances granted but said the overhang could be adjusted. <br />Callahan said he could recall 6 -8 homes along this immediate shoreline who were granted <br />variances. With the numerous positive changes of this proposal, Callahan said he was <br />inclined to grant the variances for this application. <br />Jabbour said he had a problem with the eaves, noting the need for space for emergency <br />vehicles, but saw the wisdom to grant the 6" variance. <br />Vote: Ayes 2, Kelley, Callahan; Nays 3, Goetten, Hurr, Jabbour. Motion denied. • <br />Kelley moved, Callahan seconded, to approve the application for the 6" variance with the <br />eaves meeting code. Vote: Ayes 4, Nays 1, Hurr. <br />( * #8) #2061 ARNE WASBERG, 3134 NORTH SHORE DRIVE - VARIANCE <br />RENEWAL - RESOLUTION #3631 <br />Hurr moved, Goetten seconded, to adopt Resolution #3631. Vote: Aves 5, Nays 0. <br />( #9) #2065 MARFIELD/HILL/TOLES, 2455/2425/2435 SCOTCH PINE LANE - <br />VACATION OF SCOTCH PINE LANE - PRELIMINARY SUBDIVISION <br />APPROVAL (RE -PLAT) - RESOLUTION #3632 <br />Callahan excused himself from the discussion of this application as it was his desire to <br />abstain from voting since he lived in the neighborhood. <br />Gaffron reported that the application was for the vacation of Scotch Pine Lane, a public <br />dedicated road, and the replat of the Dicon addition, which was subdivided in 1974. This <br />subdivision occurred prior to the 1975 code requirement of two acre lots. The road <br />meets current standards. <br />6 <br />
