3.The Orono Planning Commission reviewed this application on July 15, 1996, and <br />recommended approval of the variances as proposed based upon the following <br />unique findings and hardships: <br />A. <br />B. <br />C. <br />D. <br />E. <br />F. <br />G. <br />H. <br />I. <br />The property exceeds the area and lot width requirements of the LR-IC <br />Lakeshore Residential Zoning District. <br />The residence was constructed on the property prior to the 75’ lakeshore <br />setback requirement. The existing house met the original 50’ lakeshore <br />setback although the majority of the structure is located out of the 0-75' <br />setback area. <br />The pie shape of the lot places severe restrictions on the legal building <br />envelope. <br />Over 50% of the lot area is located within the 0-75’ setback area. <br />3,500 s.f. of hardcover wthin the 75-250’ setback area consists of shared <br />drive that serves 3229A and 3229C Casco Circle. <br />There will be no visual impact on the lake views of the adjacent <br />residences as the two additions are located on the main level and at the <br />lake side of residence. Adjacent homes are located on a curved peninsula <br />with view windows facing out to lake and away from applicants <br />residence. <br />The bay addition will encroach the average lakeshore setback by 46.5' <br />and the kitchen addition by 33’. The existing residence is located 52’ <br />beyond the average lakeshore setback. <br />The bay addition will be located 65’ from the shoreline and will replace <br />a deck located 58.5’ from the shoreline. <br />The proposed additions each at 27 s.f. will be single story and will be <br />placed over existing hardcover improvements. <br />Page 2 of 5
