O� CITY of ORONO RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL L ' G NO. 2967 iii. Attaching the garage to the front of the house would conflict with the main living room window system. iv. Attachment to the left side of the house would not be feasible due to the location of the existing septic system and would require major revision of the driveway location which would encroach into the area needed for replacement of the septic system. B) In June of 1990, the applicant installed a new conforming septic system serving the three bedroom residence. C) There is no significant encroachment of light, air or open space enjoyed by the neighboring affected properties. 4. The City Council finds that the conditions existing on this property are peculiar to it and do not apply generally to other property in this zoning district; that granting the variance would not adversely affect traffic conditions, light, air nor pose a fire hazard or other danger to neighboring property; would not merely serve as a convenience to the applicant, but is necessary to alleviate a demonstrable hardship or difficulty; is necessary to preserve a substantial property right of the applicant; and would be in keeping with the spirit and intent of the Zoning Code and Comprehensive Plan of the City. 5. The City Council has considered this application including the findings and recommendations of the Planning Commission, reports by City staff, comments by the applicant and the effect of the variance on the health, safety and welfare of the community. CONCLUSIONS, ORDER AND CONDITIONS Based upon one or more of the findings noted above, the Orono City Council hereby grants a renewal variance to Municipal Zoning Code Section 10.28, Subdivision 5 (B) to permit the construction of an attached two stall garage located 21' from the side lot line where a setback of 30' is required, subject to the following conditions: Page 2 of 4
