0 0 <br /> CITY of ORONO <br /> ti <br /> RESOLUTION OF THEff COUNCIL <br /> `9kESI'i0g' NO. 6 UU <br /> 1. The Applicant has demonstrated that enforcing the 75' to 250' zone hardcover <br /> and lot width provisions of the Zoning Ordinance deprive the Applicant of the <br /> reasonable use of their Property. <br /> 4.

The City Council finds that the conditions existing on this Property are peculiar to <br /> it and do not apply generally to other property in this zoning district; that granting <br /> the variance would not adversely affect traffic conditions, light, air nor pose a fire <br /> hazard or other danger to neighboring property; would not merely serve as a <br /> convenience to the Applicant, but is necessary to alleviate a practical difficulty; is <br /> necessary to preserve a substantial property right of the Applicant; and would be <br /> in keeping with the spirit and intent of the Zoning Code and Comprehensive Plan <br /> of the City. <br /> CONCLUSIONS, ORDER AND CONDITIONS <br /> Based upon one or more of the above findings, the Orono City Council hereby grants a <br /> variance to Orono Municipal Zoning Code Section 78-350(B) to allow construction of a new <br /> residence on an existing lot 60-feet in width at the OHWL and 65-feet in width at the 75-foot <br /> setback where 100-feet is required.
