ORONO PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING <br />MINUTES FOR JULY 21,1997 <br />(#4 - #2254 Curtis and Barbara Palmer - Continued) <br />Lindquist said he agreed with Hawn. <br />McMillan asked if there were any other storage sheds. Palmer said no and indicated that the <br />property was too steep to allow it elsewhere. <br />Smith suggested the applicant consider converting the porch to storage space or moving it back <br />on the property. Palmer said he felt this option would not be aesthetically pleasing or functional. <br />He indicated that the porch was added onto the front of the house. <br />Barbara Palmer said the added storage space would allow her husband to stand up in his existing <br />workshop. Schroeder said he thought they were looking for storage space noting Staff thought <br />such space could be located elsewhere on the property. Palmer asked where it could be located. <br />Schroeder said there is adequate building pad and is opposed to adding to the bulk of the <br />structure. <br />McMillan said she preferred two structures instead of adding a third. <br />Lindquist moved, Hawn seconded, to approve Application #2254 noting an additional accessory <br />structure would be more than what is needed. Vote: Ayes 5, Nays 1, Smith. <br />(Item #5 was moved to the end of the agenda as the applicant was not present.) <br />(#6) #2256 JAMES AND MARY RIVERS <br />1442 SHORELINE DRIVE <br />VARIANCE <br />PUBLIC HEARING 8:07-8:08 P.M. <br />h <br />The Affidavit of Publication and Certificate of Mailing were noted. <br />The Applicant was present. <br />Van Zomeren reported that the applicants are proposing changing the roof line of the existing <br />residence. Replacement is necessary because of damage from snow accumulating in the valley in <br />the roof. A variance is required because the house is located in the 0-75' setback. Staff <br />recommended approval. <br />The applicant had no additional comments.
