ORONO PLANNING COMMISSION <br /> Monday,June 21, 1999 <br /> • <br /> (#5) #2499 THOMAS AND MARILYN SWANSON, 1740 SHADYWOOD ROAD -VARIANCES, <br /> 8:03 p.m. -8:16 p.m.—(cont.) <br /> coverage is fine. Smith stated that the City would not be able to monitor that this structure is <br /> removed in the fall and that this structure should be considered as permanent. <br /> Lindquist stated he probably will not support this application due to adding more structure in the <br /> 0-75'setback. <br /> Smith inquired whether there was other hardcover that could be removed in that area. <br /> Mrs. Swanson stated that the dog house and concrete pad has been removed. <br /> Swanson noted that the contractor does charge a small fee for removing and installing the screens. <br /> There were no public comments. <br /> Smith moved, Berg seconded, to recommend approval of Application #2499, 1740 <br /> Shadywood Road, to allow a 10' by 17'screen enclosure on an existing deck, and to <br /> grant a lakeshore setback variance to allow a 10' by 17' screen porch on an existing <br /> deck to be located within 75'of the lakeshore and to grant a hardcover variance to <br /> allow 1,973 square feet of hardcover in the 0-75' lakeshore setback area where zero <br /> square feet is allowed,with the understanding that future applications for additional <br /> hardcover, especially in the 0-75' setback, on this property will not be looked favorably <br /> upon by the Planning Commission. VOTE: Ayes 5, Nays 1, Lindquist Opposed. <br /> • Lindquist stated he was opposed to this application because it increases the structural hardcover <br /> in the 0-75'setback and is not consistent with previous votes by the Planning Commission on <br /> similar applications. <br /> Gaffron inquired whether the Planning Commission is allowing this structure to remain on a <br /> permanent or temporary basis. <br /> Smith stated this structure should be considered permanent since the City should not be <br /> expected to monitor whether the screens are removed in the fall. <br /> Gaffron asked for confirmation that the Applicants would be permitted to install the structure as proposed <br /> but are expected to remove the screens in the fall and are not permitted to alter the structure in any other <br /> way. <br /> Smith stated that the motion approved a screen porch only and does not allow the Applicant to <br /> modify the porch by adding glass or other materials to make it anything other than a screen porch. <br /> (#6) #2500 ORONO SCHOOLS, 795 OLD CRYSTAL BAY ROAD NORTH -VARIANCES AND <br /> CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT AMENDMENT, 8:17 p.m. -8:22 p.m. <br /> The Certificate of Mailing and Affidavit of Publication were noted. <br /> Neil Lawson, School District, Scott McQueen,Architect, and Bruce Brahm, School District, were <br /> present. <br /> ill Gaffron stated Orono Independent School District#278 is requesting a conditional use permit to <br /> allow for a media center addition on the northeast side of the High School which would be one-story <br /> in height.
