(Resolution # <br />3472, file #1961.) <br />The Orono Planning Commission recommended approval based upon; <br />3. <br />C. Deck & rails doea not c <br />fwffltilwinfl PrvBf ilffi: <br />la'.-.a new view encroac lUiliil :for <br />If you allow variance applicants to build up above the area above the deck or <br />even to do the same with new construction, you would not be sticking to one <br />Of the conditions the Planning Commission required in order to recommend <br />approval for Resolution # 3472. <br />If you can ’t get what you want the first time around why would it be OK to get <br />2^ variance upon the 1** variance in such a piece-meal feshion? <br />If you are will to set such a precedent why not just open the flood gates and <br />Change the 75 ’ setback ordinance to a 70 ’ or 65’ setback. <br />The City Council found that by granting the 1994 Variance It would not <br />advefeelv affect the light nor air of the rwiohboflng propeitv. <br />If you allow them to build 2 Vi stories within 75 ’ of the lake it will adversely affect <br />the sunlight, daylight & NW breeze orflo my property. Where I now have a view <br />of the lake I will be looking at a 2 V^ story sidewall. <br />Besides the 75 ’ setback, there are two other major concerns that could adversely <br />impact me.
