r ORONO PLANNING COMMISSION MINUTES FOR FEBRUARY 23. 2000 (#2558 Anthony Patterson, Continued) 15.7 percent. Patterson stated he will reduce the side entry if necessary. Hawn stated the consensus of the Planning Commission is to leave the structural coverage at the existing 15.7 percent. Nygard indicated the Applicant will need to remove 43 square feet in order to reduce the proposed structural coverage to 15.7 percent. Nygard inquired whether the driveway should be removed. Kluth commented he would like to see the numbers for hardcover and structural coverage kept at the existing numbers. Hawn inquired why structural coverage increases if the deck is being reduced. Bergman stated the driveway was part of the original proposal and apparently has not been removed from the calculations. Kluth stated they need to get the correct hardcover and structural coverage numbers on this application. Hawn commented it appears the hardcover is less than 43.7 percent. Kluth stated he would like some assurance from the Applicant that the existing hardcover and structural coverage limits will not be increased. Kluth stated the Applicant will need to calculate the correct numbers prior to appearing before the City Council. Kluth moved, Hawn seconded, to recommend approval of Application #2558, Anthony Patterson, 1780 Shadywood Road, granting of variances to lot coverage, and side yard setback, with the understanding that all existing hardcover and structural coverage limits will not be exceeded, and subject to the submittal of a new survey showing the revisions to City Staff for approval prior to issuance of a building permit.
