The variance application has <br />requested 1,417 s.f. (29.8%) of hardcover in the 75-250' lakeshore <br />setback where 1,187.5 s.f. (25%) are allowed. <br />1,417 s.f. of hardcover has been proposed by the applicants on the <br />site. The Orono Zoning Ordinance requires two parking spaces per <br />dwelling unit. The applicants have only provided enough hardcover for <br />one space. Staff and Planning Commission have recommended an <br />additional parking space shall be added to the plans, increasing <br />hardcover. <br />Municipal Code requires that open parking spaces on lots must have a <br />location other than a required yard except that such parking may be <br />located in a rear yard to within ten feet of an interior side lot line and <br />to within ten feet of a rear lot line. The City of Orono generally <br />requires a 9' X 20' space for one vehicle, two parking spaces would <br />require an area 18' X 20' plus and additional 10’ of driveway to move <br />the vehicle parking area 10' from the property lines. The applicants <br />have proposed one 9’ X 20' (180 s.f.) for parking. <br />No garage has been proposed on the property. The City has seen <br />other applications in the past that do not propose garages at the time <br />the house is constructed and later an application is received for garage <br />construction. A garage could not be located where the parking area <br />is proposed. That area is restricted from development because of the <br />sewer line and eventual sewer easement located behind the house. The <br />property owners do not intend to build a garage on this lot. <br />Because of the unusual access to the property, a front yard setback <br />variance is required to allow a building to be constructed on the lot. <br />The north side of the property would be adjacent to the only public <br />access via a 20' platted, undeveloped, right of way. The LR-IB <br />zoning district requires a 35' setback to the front lot line, which in this <br />Page 2 of 8 <br />. —. . ------- .. -- >«•—i -<,v*1'.-r rf-.I'l ,
