The City Council has considered this application including the findings and <br />recommendations of the Planning Commission, reports by City staff, comments <br />by the applicant and the effect of the proposed variance on the health, safety and <br />welfare of the community. <br />CONCLUSIONS, ORDER AND CONDITIONS <br />Based upon one or more of the above findings, the Orono City Council hereby <br />grants variances to Municipal Zoning Code Section 10.24, Subdivision 5 (B) to permit the <br />construction of a new residence on the property located at 4055 Elm Street and grants an area <br />variance of 23,640 s.f. or 54%, subject to the following conditions: <br />1.
