Gary Petersen's Request for a Variance on Lots 184 and <br />Part of Lot 185, Taylor's Subdivision of Spring Park Lots <br />Dear Council Member: <br />I represent Mr. P. Gary Petersen, who has submitted an application <br />for a variance on the above described property in the City of Orono. Tlie <br />property is located on Ivy Place in Casco Point. Enclosed please find a <br />copy of a plat depicting the location of the property. <br />Mr. Petersen acquired the property in 1976 frcaa the estate of <br />Arthur P. Bendel with the intention of building his home on the property. <br />Mr. Bendel has owned the property since 1958. The property was platted <br />in 1885 as Lot 184 of Taylor's Subdivision of Spring Park Lots and was <br />in compliance with ail zoning and platting laws at the time it was platted. <br />The Village of Orono subsequently aerepted and approved the plat. <br />Of the 13 lots in this subdivision, Mr. Petersen's property is <br />the largest. The other*12 lots range in size from 10,400 square feet to <br />12,500 square feet. Mr. Petersen's property measures 14,271 square feet <br />on the plat. All other lots in the subdivision have houses erected on <br />them. Only Mr. Petersen's property is undeveloped. <br />The property has been assessed for sewer and water and the follow­ <br />ing special assessments remain unpaid: $225.00 sewer plant charge; $375.00 <br />SAC charge sewer and water; and $250.00 park dedication fee. All special <br />assessments will be paid if Mr. Petersen is granted authority to build on <br />i:he property. <br />The only zoning requirement from which a variance is sought is <br />the area and width requirement. Mr. Petersen's proposed dwelling will <br />comply with all other requirements of the zoning code; e.g. setback and <br />use requirements. Enclosed please find a survey of the property which <br />includes a sketch of the dxvelling and the position of the lake and alley. <br />You will notice that the travelled portion of the alley encroaches on <br />Mr. Petersen's property. This alley was inspected by Allen Olsen. If <br />the city feels that they need an easement for the alley, Mr. Petersen <br />will grant them one. <br />*ir:* <br />jr.: -A- <br />:ti <br />r? <br />. .!»■ <br />1 <br />m <br />the C' <br />if th. <br />of thi <br />stuck <br />bui Id <br />and cc <br />proper <br />sound <br />slble, <br />later <br />predic <br />Mo re oVi <br />first : <br />Mr. Pel <br />the adc <br />readilj <br />before <br />lot in <br />to 1967 <br />the pro <br />dwellin <br />the fal <br />that th< <br />assessme <br />lot is i <br />aside fr <br />to consi <br />and the <br />Mr. Pe; <br />properl <br />assessr <br />would I <br />would b <br />benefit <br />build 0 <br />value o <br />but it wo
