The Planning Commission reviewed this application at a public hearing <br /> held on August 16, 2004 and recommended approval of the variance based <br /> on the following findings: <br /> a. The property is in excess of 100 acres and can therefore support a <br /> larger building than is permitted by the Zoning Ordinance. <br /> b. The Zoning Ordinance does not specifically regulate sizes of single <br /> buildings on properties greater than 9.0 acres. <br /> c. The addition to the building will not negatively impact any neighbors <br /> or the Luce Line Trail located to the south. <br /> d. The addition will meet the required 50' setback from the Luce Line <br /> Trail boundary. <br /> • <br /> 4. The City Council has considered this application including the findings <br /> and recommendation of the Planning Commission, reports by City staff, <br /> comments by the applicant and the public, and the effect of the proposed <br /> variance on the health, safety and welfare of the community. <br /> 5. The City Council finds that the conditions existing on this property are <br /> peculiar to it and do not apply generally to other property in this zoning <br /> district; that granting the variance and conditional use permit would not <br /> adversely affect traffic conditions, light, air nor pose a fire hazard or other <br /> danger to neighboring property; would not merely serve as a convenience <br /> to the applicant, but is necessary to alleviate a demonstrable hardship or <br /> difficulty; is necessary to preserve a substantial property right of the <br /> applicant; and would be in keeping with the spirit and intent of the Zoning <br /> Code and Comprehensive Plan of the City. <br /> CONCLUSIONS, ORDER AND CONDITIONS <br /> Based upon one or more of the above findings, the Orono City Council hereby <br /> grants a conditional use permit per Section 78-418(4) and a variance to Orono Municipal <br /> Zoning Code Section 78-1434 (2) to allow an addition to an existing maintenance <br /> building which will create a single building in excess of 3,000 square feet, subject to the <br /> following conditions: <br /> Page2of5 <br />
