1 <br />Mayor Grabek <br />Orono Council Members <br />Planning Commission Chairman Kelley <br />Orono Planning Commission Members <br />City Administrator Bernhardson <br />From Jeanne A. Mabusth, Building & Zoning Administrator <br />Date:February 10, 1987 <br />Subject: #1109 Curtis L. Johnson, 2024 Shadywood Road - <br />Variances - Public Hearing <br />Request by applicant to postpone variance review until revised plans <br />are submitted to City. <br />On February 10, 1987, Mr. Johnson met with staff to advise that he <br />would be unable to proceed with a proposed second story addition to the <br />existing residence because the foundation was deemed unstable. Staff noted <br />that this would be the time to center the structure on the property if a <br />complete new foundation was to be installed (review the enclosed survey). <br />The applicant also advised that he wished to move the structure closer to <br />the lake in order to be in line with the adjacent residences. <br />If the structure is to be moved lakeward, the survey would have to be <br />amended by designating the average setback line and the setbacks for the <br />^®^oc^ted structure. Mr. Johnson has also discussed a desire for a <br />lakeshore second story deck of approximately 12 feet in width. The <br />applicant was advised that such a deck would have to also meet the average <br />lakeshore setback line. <br />Note for Review, Consideration, Comment: <br />In light of the findings and final conclusions resulting from the <br />review of the Schall application, it is now the policy of staff to require <br />variance applications when a second story is to be called over that <br />portion of a structure that is located within a required yard area. Staff <br />would also require variances if an addition involves an extension along an <br />existing substandard setback line. Note that a variance review would not <br />be required if a property had already received variance approval for the <br />encroachment of the structure into a required yard area, and, if, that <br />approval was not conditioned on the specific prohibition of vertical or <br />horizontal expansion. <br />Planning Commission Action: <br />Move to postpone review of Curtis Johnson's variance application until <br />the applicant has submitted revised plans for amended proposal.
