MINUTES OF THE ORONO CITY COUNCIL MEETING Monday, September 23,2002 7:00 o’clock p.m. («02-2813 MARK WELCH, Continued) White moved, Murphy seconded, to draft a resolution allowing new construction of a home with a V-Prow addition, for the property located at 3625 North Shore Drive, to be built in line with, and not to exce^, the average lakeshore setback, nor encroach into the established roadway. Moorse suggested that the Council consider adding to the resolution their rationale that the lots are so short and the slope behind them steep they have illowed the home to be placed within the DNR 50 ’ standard lakeshore setback. Murphy questioned if ftulher language could be added to the resolution that establishes the average lakeshore setback line for the bUxrk. Barrett agreed that it would be wise to adopt a standard average lakeshore setback for the block that could be referred to as each of the homes is redeveloped. While the language for this application establishing the average lakeshore setback line may bind this applicant, Gaffron noted that these findings would not carry legal weight in other applications for the block. He did feel it would be useful language to add to the resolution to be used as direction for future Councils when redevelopment is proposed for this nei^borhood. He indicated that he and staff would rewrite a resolution which summarizes the discussion and findings which led the Council to making this motion and bring it back for approval on October 14,2002. White moved, Murphy seconded, to amend his motion to include language that expresses the intent and summarizes the discussion which led to the establishment of the average lakeshore setback line for the block.
