The <br /> average lakeshore setback line shall be a straight line connecting the most lakeward <br /> protrusions of the residence buildings on the immediately adjacent lakeshore lots. <br /> a. In situations where improvement is proposed on a lot adjacent to a vacant lot or <br /> right-of-way, the average lake shore setback shall be equivalent to the setback of <br /> the most lakeward protrusion of the residence building on the immediately <br /> adjacent improved lakeshore lot. <br /> b. For lots with lakeshore on two opposing sides, the average lakeshore shall only <br /> apply to the side opposite the street. <br /> c. Exception. In situations where any part of the principal structure on the <br /> adjacent lots is lakeward of the ALS as described above, a second line shall be <br /> drawn connecting the most adjacent lake side corners of the principal structures <br /> on the immediately adjacent lakeshore lots. <br /> All three options include language related to lots with two opposing lakeshores, defining the <br /> 'protected'shore. <br /> Public Comments <br /> To date, no public comments have been received. <br /> Issues for Consideration <br /> 1. Does the Planning Commission feel the proposed agree with the goals? <br /> Planning Staff Recommendation <br /> The options represent differing direction. <br /> Option 2 is a true averaged setback,and is easy to define for end users,though it may not protect <br /> views to the level expected. <br /> Option 3 is our current process, with the added exception, which adds the corner to corner line <br /> described in Option 1. Staff does not support this option because it adds confusion, and is likely <br /> to be misinterpreted(as the current rule was mis-interpreted by a surveyor that has done lakeside <br /> projects in Orono for decades. <br /> Planning Staff recommends Option 1. Option 1 is a corner to corner line, eliminating the <br /> possibility of the line bisecting adjacent properties, is easy to understand and communicate while <br /> protecting views. <br /> List of Exhibits <br /> Exhibit A.
