And, as you might expect <br />at this stage, things are in a bit of a rush and we need your help.1 <br />The surveyors have staked out our proposed house and I would like <br />to show it to you. Orono city officials have been very helpful, <br />and 1 believe we are within reasonable variances. Our house will <br />be rather modest compared with the Nobles' plans, and we are requesting <br />more conservative variances. <br />Where we might be a bit vulnerable is with respect to the setback <br />from the lake. We propose that the shortest distance from our <br />shoreline be 55', one and a half feet i<2ss than the average set- <br />L.icks of the Gaodtles' (59') and yours (48*). With your support, our <br />request for this variance would enable us to leave the north part <br />of our lot "pure" as far as the pond and wetlands are concerned. <br />Our biggest problem is that we have to have our variance application <br />in the zoning administrator's hands this Wednesday, October 17. <br />If you agree that our proposed site is acceptable from your stand­ <br />point, we would appreciate it ever so much if you would sign and <br />return a copy of this letter so that I may use it as one of my <br />eidiibits when I appear before the Planning (knmisslon later this <br />month. <br />Many thanks for yotu: help. <br />HSK/dm <br />End. <br />To: H.
