The property in question cannot be put to a reasonable use if used under conditions <br />allowed by the official controls. <br />The property can be put to a reasonable use without constructing a new garage. A <br />garage of smaller size or different location can be constructed without variances. <br />2. The plight of the landowner is due to circumstances unique to his property not created <br />by the landowner. <br />The lot size and width do not meet zoning district requirements. Many other properties <br />that do not meet zoning requirements in Orono have smaller garages to conform to <br />zoning requirements. <br />3.The variances, if granted, will not alter the essential character of the locality. <br />The variances for hardcover, and side setback will not change the character of the area. <br />4.Economic considerations alone shall not constitute an undue hardship if reasonable <br />use for the property exists under the terms of this chapter. <br />U2291 Steven Sigel <br />1 399 Park Drive <br />Variances <br />9/15/97 <br />Page 3 <br />!
