To: <br />Frost <br />Dote: <br />Mayor Grabek & Orono Council Members <br />City Administrator Bernhardson <br />Michael P. Gaffron, Asst Planning & Zoning Administrator <br />November 9, 1989 <br />7 <br />#1468 George Pillsbury, 1300 Bracketts Point Road - <br />Variance/Conditional Use Permit - Resolution <br />Sooin9 District - LR-IA, Single family lakeshore residential, 2 <br />acre, unsewered <br />Application - Request for hardcover, setback and average <br />lakeshore setback variances and conditional use permit for <br />addition and minor grading in lakeshore yard. <br />List Of Exhibits <br />Exhibit A - Planning Commission Minutes of 10/16/89 <br />Exhibit B - Notice of Planning Commission Action of 10/20/89 <br />Exhibit C - Memo 6 Exhibits of 10/12/89 <br />Exhibit D - Draft Resolution <br />Discussion - <br />Please review the memo and exhibits of October 12, 1989. <br />the applicants are requesting a hardcover and setback <br />variance to construct a greenhouse addition to the existing <br />residence. The existing residence is partially within the 0-75* <br />zone. Per Exhibit H, applicant indicates that, contrary to <br />®taff*s measurement on the small scale survey, the proposed <br />addition will be no closer to the lake than portions of the <br />existing house. <br />®**'‘5cover in the 0-75* zone is proposed to increase from <br />5.7% to 7.6%. No hardcover removals are proposed. <br />In conjunction with the greenhouse addition, applicant <br />proposes to construct a 24"-30" retaining wall at the top of the <br />bank adjacent to the house (see Exhibit H). Also, applicant <br />proposes to construct a draintile between the house and the <br />lakeshore bank to transport surface run-off from the 0-75* zone <br />to a wet well in the 75-250* zone, which would ultimately <br />discharge over land in the 75-250* zone. <br />The Planning Commission, at their October 16th meeting, <br />recommended approval of the hardcover and setback variances and <br />conditional use permit for grading, on a vote of 5-2. In their <br />minority opinion. Planning Commissioners Kelley and Cohen <br />Indicated that they felt that there was no hardship nor <br />justification shotm for the increase in hardcover and structure <br />in the 0-75* zone. Comments from the Planning Commissioners <br />recommending approval indicated that the relatively low <br />percentage of hardcover in the 0-75* zone coupled with the fairly <br />insignificant visual impact from the lake, were positive aspects <br />of the request, as was the intent to direct drainage away from <br />the shoreline.
