MINUTES OF THE ORONO PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING HELD ON JANUARY 20, 1998 • - Lake Country Builders for John and Cindy Olson- Continued) (#11 #2325 a ry Y Smith indicated that the ordinance came into effect after the residence was built. She would allow replacement of existing structure but could not approve the addition of structure. Smith noted there could be an impact on erosion as well, which would have an accumulative effect. McMillan noted the presence of sliding glass doors. The builder said one door is on the lakeside to the deck. The other door is part of the addition and located off of a bathroom. He would have to make the door stationary if no deck is allowed. It was noted that the 8'x8' deck is included in the information but not shown on the survey. This deck would be located in the bluff impact zone. Lindquist informed the builder that he could not approve this deck. The builder said the ordinance allows for no further construction on this home. Lindquist said there are many homes in Orono in a similar situation. The builder asked if a screen porch could be screened in on the existing deck. Lindquist said it was a probability. The builder agreed to table the application in order to redesign the deck. Schroeder moved, Lindquist seconded, to table Application#2325 subject to redesign of the deck. Vote: Ayes 5, Nays 0.
