MINUTES OF THE ORONO PLANNING COMMISSION <br />MEETING HELD ON JUNE 17, 1996 <br />( #8 - #2143 Diane Perez - Continued) <br />Hawn asked how entry is gained into the house. Stepniak said there is a front doorway <br />leading into the garage with steps into the house. There is also a back slider -type doorway <br />and a 3' door where the steps are, which will be removed. <br />Stoddard added that the change will assist the drainage. <br />There were no additional applicant comments and no public comments. <br />Smith moved, Hawn seconded, to approve the hardcover /setback variances for <br />reconstruction of roof over portion of existing house. The steps will be removed at the <br />time of the roof construction. Vote: Ayes 7, Nays 0. The application will be presented at <br />the June 24 Council meeting. <br />( #9) #2144 ARTHUR AND TERRY JEWETT, 3546 IVY PLACE - VARIANCES - <br />PUBLIC HEARING - 8:32 -8:42 P.M. <br />The Affidavit of Publication and Certificate of Mailing were noted. <br />The Applicants were present. <br />• <br />Mabusth reported that the request is for setback and hardcover variances for a proposed <br />roof expansion and realignment in the 0 -75' setback to allow for better drainage. The <br />drainage would disburse to the sides rather than toward the lakeshore with this change. <br />The improvements also involve a new entry and expansion of garage. The average <br />lakeshore setback is encroached with the structure 22.6' in front of the average Lakeshore <br />setback line.. Existing hardcover has been removed and will be below the 25% allowable <br />in the 75 -250' zone. Mabusth said there is a long driveway and recommended increasing <br />the area adjacent to garage by 8' and to allow for backing out apron. The original 10'x12' <br />deck has been reduced to 4'x 12' in the 0 -75' zone. <br />• <br />Hawn asked for clarification of runoff. It was determined that the runoff travels westward <br />through neighbors yards on to a nearby lagoon. Mabusth said with the decrease in <br />hardcover, although the runoff will be traveling toward the neighbors, less would go in <br />that direction. <br />There were no public comments. <br />Hawn moved, Smith seconded, to recommend approval for average lakeshore setback and <br />hardcover variance in the 0 -75' setback with improvements to the drainage. Vote: Ayes <br />7, Nays 0. <br />11 <br />
