10. The City Council finds that the combination of Lots 64 and 65 to become <br />redesignated Record Lot 15 is still less than the minimum lot size required for <br />new lots in the RS District, but that this Record Lot is being used and/or may <br />be used in the future for any permitted use in the RS District without adverse <br />effect upon public health, safety or welfare. <br />11. The City Council finds that the conditions existing on this property are peculiar <br />to it and do not apply generally to other property in this zoning district; that <br />granting the variance would not adversely affect traffic conditions, light, air nor <br />pose a fire hazard or other danger to neighboring property; would not merely <br />serve as a convenience to the applicant, but is necessary to alleviate a <br />demonstrable hardship or difficulty; is necessary to preserve a substantial <br />property right of the applicant; and would be in keeping with the spirit and <br />intent of the Zoning Code and Comprehensive Plan of the City. <br />CONCLUSIONS, ORDER AND CONDITIONS <br />Based upon one or more of the above findings, the Orono City Council hereby <br />grants approval for the redesignation of Big Island Record Lot 15 as being solely comprised <br />of Lots 64 and 65, Morse Island Park; and further grants a lot area variance for said Record <br />Lot 15 based on the above findings and subject to the following conditions: <br />1. The approvals granted within this Resolution rely on the applicants’ acquisition <br />of Lot 65 and shall take effect only upon the applicants’ successful legal <br />combination of Lots 64 and 65. “ <br />2. Granting of this variance means that Record Lot 15 may be used for one-family <br />seasonal recreational use without a structure; or a single new seasonal dwelling <br />may be built; or an existing seasonal dwelling may be used, improved, added <br />onto, or replaced; all without requiring further City Council review of lot size, <br />but subject to strict compliance with all building permit, setback, hardcover, on­ <br />site sewage treatment and other performance standards for development in the <br />RS district. <br />Page 4 of 6
